Astral Colleges

Rules system: homebrew Sancturi system (March-April 2017 drafts). Legacy design material, not canon for play.

Lore page: Arcane Colleges.

The college lists of the Astral (Order) domain, whose opposite is Nether: Sanception (Divine), a ladder of passives that lets an Arcane caster use divine spells, and Divination (Scrying), a template. The domain worksheet's other Astral colleges, Conjuration (Construction), Enchantment (Spellbind) and Lexisacrology (Contract), have no lists. The thirteen-tier ladder is on Arcane Colleges.

Sanception (Divine)

Deus-Furatas. "Sanception deals with the manipulation of astral shards and their associated rites. In this way, they work exactly like divine magic except without the divine mandate and permission (anointing)." (S306) What the gods think of this theft of their Astral Shards is on Divine Magic.1

Tier Passive Effect
I Novice First Order You can cast known 1st-order Divine spells.
III Initiate Second Order 2nd-order Divine spells.
IV High Initiate Third Order 3rd-order Divine spells.
V Adept Divine Proficiency Your Divine spells now cost only 200% of the original.
VI High Adept Fourth Order 4th-order Divine spells.
VII Arch-Adept Fifth Order 5th-order Divine spells.
VIII Master Divine Expertise Your Divine spells now cost only 150% of the original. The author asks: "should these be feats instead??????"
IX High Master Sixth Order 6th-order Divine spells.
X Arch-Master Seventh Order 7th-order Divine spells.
XI Grandmaster Divine Mastery Your Divine spells now cost the same as a Divine caster's.
XII High Grandmaster Eighth Order 8th-order Divine spells.
XIII Arch-Grandmaster Ninth Order 9th-order Divine spells.

Each order passive repeats: "Divine Spells are more difficult to memorize and take 200% memory and 300% energy to cast." Tier II is "??".

Divination (Scrying)

"Divination deals with the sending and receiving of senses, signals and information across the planes." (S305) Its motto is "??". Only two spells are named, with no rules: Clairaudience (I Novice) and Clairvoyance (II High Novice). Every other tier is "?" or "??".
