Symbology

Symbology is a school of Magick that is dedicated to the usage and understanding of the written language of Magick. These Symbols have as many uses as there are words in the dictionary, some are used for defensive means, others for offensive, others for more mundane tasks of boiling a kettle. Symbols are most often written on paper or surfaces, they have no power written on other Mages as the magicks will cancel each other out. Symbols are usually tied to a small source of Magick, enabling them to be activated should someone touches them allowing others to activate the symbol, otherwise the drawer or another Symbologist must use their own Magick to activate it. Most Symbologists must have a decent memory for symbols, especially if they need to use them on the fly, but most of them carry around a book to help them calculate the various symbols. A lot of geomatry and math is required for Symbology.
