	Carnelian Coast (Magic)
		Talismans are simple objects (e.g., a piece of paper, a wall, a book, a ring, an amulet, etc.) inscribed or traced with magical symbols.
		For example, when a binding object can no longer supply energy to the supernatural entity, the binding breaks and the supernatural entity is free.
		If a spirit, already bound to one object, is then bound to a second object, then the second object is an auraculum (for lack of a better term) of the first.

		Lust of Result - Can (verb in imperative mode) be object or purpose (be sure it is caused and not lost) concentrate on the act or subject or what not, enjoy it fully - but keep the object or purpose well carried.
		For months now I have dared and sneered at and rejected whatI termed "old magical methods." But all my actions to get something new have brought me merely to a state of nervous collapse which seems to have reached its limit today.
		Flashes of A, etc. A man- his name - AUM - 84 Showed me that War Engine was of metal (very fine), and to be hurled.

		Its rebirth each morning is shown at the uppermost point of the stela, where Thoth, four baboons, and the kneeling King Nectanebo II lift their arms in the gesture of adoration and prayer.
		The stela was commissioned by the priest Esatum to be set up in the public part of a temple.

		The talisman's magic, unlike the amulet's, is not only warding off (repelling), but also proactive (performing magic), such as healing, alerting, spellsending, cursing etc. The magic is in the object and therefore never expires.
		Interferences of magical materials strengthen these effects, as well as the tying material which is ideally carpet thread from Turkey, Iraq or Iran.
		But then, a generation of new and better focussed spells surpassed every wood's magical ability.

	Combat Sliver Symbiots
		The magma is created and stored using magically enhanced organs located in the Sliver's main body, but even if the Sliver is killed, the magma will instantly harden and cannot accidentally leak onto the host.
		Combining a normal Sliver with a small fire elemental, the resulting creation underwent further biowizard augmentation to ensure that it could breed normally and did not require continually magical energy to prevent its own death.
		The Magma Sliver’s main power is its ability to shoot a stream of magma from the end of each tail.

	A subjective analysis of two high-level, object-oriented languages
		The other language which approaches this is Lisp, but it treats functions as magical and special.
		It seems to me that this is a pattern throughout the language, while it is designed to scale up, it seems poorly suited to scale down, lower than a large application.
		Technically, this may be true (and in applications where speed is really a factor, and a lot of code is written in one of these languages, you WILL feel it) but the large base of native library code written in C for python will negate this for most small, and some large, applications.

	House Rules
		For each level you take, if you wield or wear an item of this metal you get a dice penalty equal to the level, if you are struck with an object of this metal the opponent adds dice to his presoak damage equal to the level.
		The character can choose one other type of the five magical materials (not counting their own) that they may naturally attune to without penalty (as on pg.338 of the main Exalted handbook.)
		This Merit does not protect from creatures (or their Powers, such as the Fair Folk's Glamour magic) of the Wyld or outside hazards of the Wyld environment, only the mutating effects that are caused by spending too much time in the Wyld.

		It cannot be used on Hearthstones, enchanted object or items made of the Five Magical Materials, This spell can only be used on items that the caster can pick up and easily carry or wear.
		The spirit sword does a base lethal damage to living beings equal to the sorcerer's Willpower; if the defender has a magical weapon, then the spirit sword may be parried as a normal melee attack, and if the defender has magical armor, then the armor's soak applies.
		In addition, the road in front of them is magically cleared of all snow, sand and similar small debris.

	Magical objects in Harry Potter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, Malfoy discovers that a pair of Vanishing Cabinets could be used as a magical passage, and uses this object to smuggle Death Eaters into Hogwarts.
		In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Barty Crouch Jr., who was masquerading as Alastor Moody, made the Triwizard Tournament cup into a portkey so it would transport anybody who touched it straight to the hands of Voldemort, expecting it would be Harry Potter.

		Also, like an elf, a gnomish antiquary who merely passes within 5 feet of a secret or concealed door is entitled to a Search check to notice it as if she were actively looking for the door.

	Magic and religion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Contagious magic involves the use of physical ingredients which were once in contact with the object or objects one hopes to influence with a spell, and sympathetic magic involves the use of physical objects which resemble the object or objects one hopes to influence.
		Due to waves of monotheistic persecution and the accompanying persistent destruction of art and writing related to magical traditions, magic as it has come to be known in Western culture has generally been reconstructed from secondary, tertiary, or even more remote sources.
		Aleister Crowley and his disciples are most often credited with the resurgence of magical tradition in the last century, but in their eagerness to reconstruct the lost traditions of the past, they often included elements of questionable authenticity, or manufactured them from whole cloth.

	Firebird (Russian folklore) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Fetishism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A fetish (from French fétiche; from Portuguese feitiço; from Latin facticius, "to make") is a natural object believed to have supernatural powers, or in particular an object created by people that has power over people.
		Tylor and McLennan held that the concept of fetishism allowed historians of religion to shift attention from the relationship between people and God to the relationship between people and material objects.
		The concept was coined by Charles de Brosses in 1757, while comparing West African religion to the magical aspects of Ancient Egyptian religion.

	Marcel Mauss - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is the fact that the identity of the giver is invariably bound up with the object given that causes the gift to have a power which compels the recipient to reciprocate.
		The famous question that drove his inquiry into the anthropology of the gift was: "What power resides in the object given that causes its recipient to pay it back?" (1990:3).
		The giver does not merely give an object but also part of himself, for the object is indissolubly tied to the giver: "the objects are never completely separated from the men who exchange them" (1990:31).

		Whether powdered, used as a metal for magical implements and containers, or left to oxidize and grind later, copper's happy associations are welcome additions to a wide range of spell purposes.
