The emphasis in this system is on the relationship between the forces and the character and how they interpret them and use them. Because of this what you can do is limited by what you can imagine doing and how much affinity to that force you have. When the forces appeared they were attracted to people who had natures which suited that force. Farmers developed an affinity for the force of land so did governors. Scholars, politicians, and counsellors developed affinities for mind. But of course because nobodies personality is that simple people also foundthey had an affinity for several forces reflecting who they were and what they did.
Each magic statistic will range between zero and ten with zero being no affinity to the force and ten being unbelievable affinity to that force. Initially the statistic will only be had at a maximum of five. Statistics can be increased by actions which bring that character closer’to the relevant force. Practice will do this to some extent but must be accompanied by behaving in a manner which encourages their affinity to that force. For example to increase the statistic in mind, along with practise they might try forming some sort of school or performing some actions which particularly involve the use of their mind in a unmagical way. Of course if your character was concentrating solely on one force, changes and decides to focus on different force, they could lose affinity for that force as they concentrated entirely on a different force. However less focused concentration on several forces means several forces can be maintained and used in combination.
In order for a person to perform a task using the force they need to imagine the particular effect occurring, and how it would work to some extent. For example in order to use body to stretch the dimensions of a leg they would not need to know how to move the internal structure of the leg, but would need to specify whether they were going to stretch a section of the leg orthe whole thing.
Effects can be done involving multiple forces, in fact some can only be done that way. For example in order to create an illusion which breathes real flame a combination of a fairly low mind statistic (to create the illusion) and moderately high change (in order to create the fire out of nothing). If for example they created the illusion around a torch on the wall then the flame would be easier to create because there is already some flame present and less change would be required.
All these effects can be produced at higher levels to a greater extent and at lower levels to a lesser extent, these are just examples of the power level. You should think up your own ways of using the force. No one has got as far as any of the higher levels yet so they are unknown. Also don't forget that there will be consequences to the things you do. Using body to increase your stamina so you can run further will still leave you tired when the effect is no longer in use. Because of this effects can only be produced with forces as often as you have the energy for. In orderto create an effect you need to concentrate and the more complicated the effect, the longer and harder you have to concentrate. As you will know concentrating for periods of time is tiring (think of exams) also while concentrating, if someone breaks that concentration you may have to start again of the effect could simply just go wrong half way through.
