Abilities

Initial Status
Magical abilities are initially removed from characters completely, though they can be earned back. Once returned, they will be marginally weakened. This means there are certain limitations on magic. Casting it is tiring, or at least, more than usual. Spells require more ingredients. The magic doesn't always respond the way you want it to...or at all. For more specifics, read on.

How do I get my powers back?
Certain items, when handed over to specific NPCs, will prompt the return of all or some of your character’s abilities. This may be a return to full power or partial power. Magical abilities can also be earned through special events. If you believe your character needs a particular ability from the very beginning, or if you have an idea for one of these special events, please don’t hesitate to contact a mod.

Teleportation
Once regained, teleportation works largely as normal. However, as with the teleport crystals, characters will only be able to go places they have been before. This means no teleporting into a random area and discovering new or hidden places, sorry!

Telepathy/Empathy
Once regained, your character may be able to touch the minds of others. Feel free to contact other players and work out OOCly what information your telepath may glean. Keep in mind that the information your character gets may be wrong!

Psychics
So your character can see the future, huh? Once regained, your character will be able to predict the future with significant limitations. Feel free to contact a mod regarding what your character may see, but keep in mind that the information you receive will be garbled at best and entirely wrong at worst.

Flight
If your character can fly through some sort of physical means (dude's got wings!), then feel free to head up! You will notice that the higher you go, the thicker the cloud cover, until it becomes a thick, dark, soupy mess. No matter how high your character goes, the cover will not break. Your character may also notice...things in the clouds. Things that look and sound...unfriendly. Stay aloft too long, and they'll come after you. For those of you using magical or supernatural means of flight, the ability will have to be earned back (as with all magical abilities). Once regained, you will be able to fly to any place you would otherwise walk to. The same restrictions for vertical flight apply to magical as well as physical ability. Don't go too high!

Other Information
Your character has the option of learning magic from any character who already knows and has earned back their own magical skills. Keep in mind, though, that your character’s ability with magic will never be quite as good as someone who came in with that skill already in place, and that your character’s learned skills are more likely to act up during plot events than your teacher’s.
