Its a Beautiful World
Seek out an elemental font and draw power from it.
Your magic is wild, untamed, and inspired by the world around you. Choose a signature
element. When you first approach a font of that element in its primal form, choose
one:
It flares outward, spreading traces of itself and affecting those around it.
It whispers its secrets; ask one question from the discern realities list.
It awakens as a familiar with cost (freedom), loyalty 1, and a skill of rank 3.
It gives up its essence, dissipating to heal you 10 damage.

I lost control and hurt ____________; I must make amends

you calm down.

Signature Elements
The Components of a Signature Element
You didnt learn magic you were born with it. Power floods you with every indrawn breath. You are inspired and fueled by the element which first awakened
your power... and which first caused you to lose control. Each signature element is made up of several components, detailed below.
Element
Nature
This raw element is the inspiration for all your magic. It occurs in nature
and it lives within you. You harness it to fuel your spells.
Your Nature reflects your elements in a variety ways. When you act
against your nature, take -1 forward.
Signature Tags
Tragedy
Your signature element inspires the behavior of your magic. Spells you
cast gain all of the Signature tags listed for your element.
When your power manifested, you were too young to control it. Each
element has a set of Tragedies which describe your magical awakening, and
what you lost in the process. Choose one from the list.
Primal Fonts
Traces of an element occur throughout the world, but fonts of the element
in its primal form are rare and powerful. Example fonts are listed for each
element. Always work together with the GM to determine if youre near an
elemental font or just an ordinary trace of your element.
Overcharge
Power overwhelms you. Whenever you roll a 7-9 on your signature spell,
lose control of a spell, or otherwise suffer consequences from your element,
you or the GM may choose the Overcharged effect instead of damage.
