Enchantments on items are always very narrowly-defined: a single Evocation or Thaumaturgical game action.

If you were to create an Evocation-based Enchanted item, it could allow you to make 1 Evocation attack for free in a scene. For example a fire-based attack game action vs a single target.

If you were to create a Thaumaturgy-based Enchanted item, it could allow you to make 1 Thaumaturgical action for free in a scene, quickly, without having to build up all necessary prerequisites to casting the Thaumaturgical spell. For example opening a doorway to the NeverNever or a Pocket full of Sunshine that places the aspect of 'Sunlit' onto the area.

Enchanted items are made with the following commands and cost 1 Refresh apiece.

• +enchant/create <name>=<desc>: Creates that enchanted item. The cost of the item and the uses are both limited to 1. If you don't provide a <desc>, the item will begin blank.
• +enchant/rename <num>=<name>: Renames that enchanted item.
• +enchant/desc <num>=<description>: Describes that enchanted item. The preferred format is to describe the effect of the item." - e.g. "Coat of protection, Reactive armor, 2 free tags."
• +enchant/del <num>: Deletes that item from your sheet.

Rote spells are always very narrowly-defined: a single evocation application using a single element, such as a fire attack which always has the same weapon rating, or an air maneuver which always creates the exact aspect. However, within its narrow range of application, a rote spell can be very useful for a simple reason: Rotes are the only way to gain bonuses on Casting rolls.

When casting a rote spell for attack, the evocator receives the bonus conferred by the Rote to their casting roll (up to +2 for a VERY specific game action, or +1 for a general game action), plus uses any bonus from Specializations and additionally gains their Weapon rating. Keep in mind, while Rotes have no inherent limiter on their uses, they do cause 1 shift of damage to your stress track every time they're used.

Essentially, Rotes are the 'Stunts' for the Casting skill.

To create a rote spell, type +rote/add <name>=<description>. The description fills in exactly what the spell does, and how much of a bonus it confers to that rolled action. Each rote spell is assigned a number when viewed with +show, and this is the <number> used in the following commands.

• +rote/rename <number>=<new name> renames a rote spell.
• +rote/redesc <number>=<new description> changes the rote's description.
• +rote/del <number> deletes a rote from your spell list.
