In the Lancelot-Grail Vulgate prose cycle, the Lady resides in an enchanted realm, an otherworld the entry to which is disguised as an illusion of a lake the Post-Vulgate notes it as Merlin 's work [19]. When Arthur and Merlin first go to meet her, she holds Excalibur out of the water and offers it to Arthur if he promises to fulfill any request from her later, to which he agrees.

  • The Magic Wand Represents the Wandabsolute Will of the Magician

    The Magic Wand Represents the Wandabsolute Will of the Magician

    The Magic Wand represents the Wandabsolute will of the magician. This potent magical agic tool can be used for almost any energy-directing purpose, The M tinos which includes healing, the charging of other magical implements, and y Konstan the evocation of benevolent spirits (malevolent entities should be called with B the magic sword, which is explained below). Over the years, several occult orders and magical traditions have each developed specific magic wands for use in their rituals. The Golden Dawn, for example, had a different wand for every officer of the temple (Chief Adept's Wand, Praemonstrator's Wand, etc.), a wand for invoking the element of Fire (described above), and a Lotus Wand that was useful for many types of rituals. As a solitary ceremonial magician, however, you only need to concern yourself with the already explained Fire weapon and one other type of wand, the Magic Wand, which is used for directing energy and willpower. This Magic Wand does not have any particular elemental or astrological correspondences associated with it, therefore it is free of markings, unlike the Golden Dawn Elemental Weapons. The Magic Wand is a universal instrument, and can be used within the context of any magical current or tradition. When charging and consecrating your other magical weapons, this is the instrument you will use to help you direct energy and Divine Light into them. The type of material selected for a Magic Wand's construction is very important. Over the centuries, several different woods have been used and the ones recommended here are used almost universally.

Signed Name of student: Meike Weijtmans Student number: s4235797 Weijtmans, s4235797/3 Abstract Celtic culture has always been a source of interest in contemporary popular culture, as it has been in the past; Greek and Roman writers painted the Celts as barbaric and uncivilised peoples, but were impressed with their religion and mythology. The Celtic revival period gave birth to the paradox that still defines the Celtic image to this day, namely that the rurality, simplicity and spirituality of the Celts was to be admired, but that they were uncivilised, irrational and wild at the same time. Recent debates surround the concepts of “Celt”, “Celticity” and “Celtic” are also discussed in this thesis. The first part of this thesis focuses on Celtic history and culture, as well as the complexities surrounding the terminology and the construction of the Celtic image over the centuries. This main body of the thesis analyses the way Celtic elements in contemporary adaptations of the Arthurian narrative form the modern Celtic image.

  • The Old Kingdom

    The Old Kingdom

    The Old Kingdom Does the jumper choose the path, or the path the jumper? Welcome to the world of the Old Kingdom. It is a troubled time: the government has collapsed, and anarchy reigns. What's worse, the Dead rise from their graves, both on their own and at the behest of necromancers. Charter Magic, the force that would bring order, is weaker now than it has ever been. And Kerrigor, one of the Greater Dead, has begun to set his schemes into motion. But there is still hope: by your actions, the land may yet be restored. Alternatively, you would rather stay in Ancelstierre to the south, a world of 20th­century technology where charter and necromancy alike have no place. Or perhaps you would see this world slide even further into darkness, that you yourself might flourish. Regardless, you have 1000 choice points to start you off. You’ll have to survive here for 10 years, so spend them wisely. Backgrounds: Your age is 16 + 2d8. You may alter your age and gender for 100 cp. Drop­In (Free): You enter the world as you are, with no added memories of the world. Charter Mage (50 cp): Long ago, order was imposed over chaos. Charter magic is the expression of that order, and you've grown up learning its structure. You may start at Wyverley College. Free Magic Sorcerer (50 cp): When charter magic first entered the world, free magic was driven back, reduced to necromancy alone. With the breaking of two of the Great Charter, and many lesser charter stones, it made its resurgence.
