	Astral Healer :: Basic Magical Theory
		Things such as the incense, candles, magical implements like the wand or components of spells and rituals are the same when it comes to energy work.
		Magical implements or any other parts of a spell: You must have all the components ready before whatever you are doing and enough to last for the length of time you will be doing the ritual or spell.
		You say it three times, which is a magical number and it aids in the ability of the spell-caster to put extra power into it.

		Magical formulas are recited aloud during the casting of spells and represent the most common tool used to focus magic.
		Aside from that artifacts can be used for permanent magical effects like improving defense or attack skills of the wearer, cloak him/her with invisibility etc. Most artifacts also have the advantage that they can be used from non-mages as well, which explains why that adventurers are always on the lookout for such valuable items.
		Magic was also re-discovered as a science of the spirit and the Magical Academy at Ximax was founded in order to give magical research direction and purpose.

	RedMist - The Art of Magic
		All magic is dead in their presence, and they can absorb any spell that enters a certain radius around them.
		The artifact itself will not degrade or die, but as long as it is in a dead-zone, it's cast spell will have a weaker effect.
		Magical artifacts that replenish their own energy are allowed, but they are extremely rare (at least in this region) and will probably be a GM's creation.

	Artifact (fantasy) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In role-playing games and fantasy literature, an artifact is a magical object with some marvelous and alarming power, so great that it cannot be duplicated by any known art allowed by the premises of the fantasy world, and cannot be destroyed by ordinary means.
		In Dungeons and Dragons, artifacts are magic items so powerful that they either cannot be created by mortals or the secrets to their creation were lost ages ago.
		Artifacts typically have no inherent limit to how many times their power can be invoked, and if any limitations are placed on their powers, it is a number of uses per day or some cost involved with each use.

	Artifact (archaeology) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In archaeology, an artifact or artefact is any object made or modified by a human culture, and often one later recovered by some archaeological endeavor.
		Artifacts are distinguished from features, which are nonportable remains of human activity, such as hearths, roads, or house remains, and from biofacts (also called ecofacts), which are objects of archaeological interest made by other organisms, such as seeds or animal bone.
		Similarly there can be debate over early stone objects which may be crude artifacts or which may be naturally occurring phenomena that only appear to have been used by humans.

	Magical Artifacts
		This is a shame, since magic items have the potential to be a wondrous, mysterious and vital part of a campaign world.
		If you force yourself to create a new item and powers each time you wish to introduce a magical artifact in the game, you are more likely to fully detail the item and consider its effects on the game world.
		In my game world, each category of magic item (weapon, wand, jewelry, etc.) follow a set of rules governing how they gain their powers, how the powers are invoked, how they recharge and so on.

		When you have the unactivated Artifact, encounter credit, and a book (what 3 scrolls combined to are called), head to the Scholars in the region you found the Artifact in.

	Magic Item Creation
		Not all magical items created have to be of an artifact level.
		It is also important to note that this is the major balancing point of how powerful the effects are, typically the more powerful the magic in used, the harder it is to use, or the more infrequently it can be used.
		The steel for the sword must be from the dwarves of Thenorth, or the wood for the staff must be a limb from an ironwood, which was burnt.

	Rules of the Game: More Magical Oddities (Part Two) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		A detect magic spell can determine the location of the target spell's magical aura, and you reasonably can assume that locating the spell's aura with detect magic is sufficient to target the spell with dispel magic.
		The DM might also allow you to target a specific spell with dispel magic when you can surmise what the spell is. For example, the barbarian in your group enters a rage and then abruptly freezes in place, not attacking.
		If the target object is a magic item that also has received one or more spells, you have a chance to end each spell currently operating on the item and a chance to suppress all the item's magical abilities.

		The ritual artifact, like magical art, invites to change, as it is pregnant with meaning.
		The object is metaphor, an instrument of magical practice which opens a breach in the density of symbols, which gives magical man the wings he needs to ascend and transcend.

		The power to turn into a demoness is supplied by a magical IIF artifact she carries.
		However, some of the powers the artifact grants (notably, characteristic bonuses) are available when she is not in demoness form, while others are only available in demoness form.
		I am tempted to give this the standard -1/4 limitation for OIHID since she both needs the artifact and to turn into her HID form to have access to these powers, and since she spends most of her time in her secret ID unless expecting a fight.
