SORCERY

Any individual with willpower can learn sorcery. However, individuals who wish to learn sorcery must have a PC or NPC to teach them. While it is possible to teach oneself sorcery, it is not going to be possible within the framework of the game.

PSYCHIC POWERS

Psychics can learn more psychic powers, but non-psychics (defined as those who start the game without a psychic power) cannot learn psychic powers after character creation. In order to be able to purchase psychic abilities, the character must either go through a traumatic event that the Mage staff has approved of beforehand (or this will be very rare) or the character must be the target of fundamental and dangerous manipulation by other PCs.

	TRUE FAITH: True faith is only available as a belief in a single solitary entity that arranges the universe according to its will. To use game terms, faith in The One, whatever name it uses. If an entity does not have complete and utter control of the rules of the universe, you cannot have True Faith in it.
