DIVINATION magic
The Divination Witch
The Mind
Divination focuses on the mind, knowledge, and perception. Practitioners of divination seek truth, uncover hidden information, and gain insight into people, places, and events through magical means. Their craft centers on understanding what is known, unknown, and yet to be discovered. It allows a character to sense, interpret, or glimpse information tied to the past, present, or possible futures. This form of magic does not directly alter events—it reveals insight, warnings, and hidden truths.
​Common forms of divination include:
-
tea leaf reading,
-
tarot card
-
crystal ball gazing
-
scrying
The Risk
Peering too deeply into hidden truths can blur the line between fact, possibility, and interpretation. Diviners risk becoming overwhelmed by conflicting visions, misreading signs, or becoming distracted by knowledge that was never meant to be known.
divination magic OOC
This particular type of magic in a roleplay setting requires OOC discussion.
If you are attempting to find out information about another player or current knowledge, OOC consent is needed. The information is given to you by the other player (you may not write someone else's backstory, family, history, etc )
OOC consent is needed to search for others as well. Information about the island and its history, The Overlord or Morrigan must be brought to Admins before trying to add it to the lore.

Performing Divination Magic in Roleplay
1. When using divination magic to tell the past or find out current information. The player you are doing the reading on determines what is learned. This requires OOC Conversation between players.
2 OOC consent or a dice role must be given anytime magic is being used that involves other players such as astral projection or scrying. If multiple players are involved, all players in the scene need to give consent or a dice roll is done. Consent can not be given by only one person in that scene.
