[[Personal Magic]] is one of the major spheres of magic found in Ransera. It refers to those disciplines whose power is derived through the use of the wizard’s own aether as opposed to the aether borrowed through the use of tools or rituals. Some personal magics are more widespread than others but the unifying concept behind them is that the wizard themselves is the source of their own power. They rise and fall of their own merit, for better or worse.

[[World Magic]] is one of the major spheres of magic in Ransera. Its schools are described and viewed as pseudosciences that have very structured and mechanical methods to their practice and implementation. Personal magic requires that the wizard take a piece of the aether within themselves and repurpose it into the effect they wish to manifest into the world. World magic differs in that it manipulates the aether inherent in the objects and rituals used to produce its effects, leaving the wizard’s aether untouched. This is not to say that world magic doesn’t pose risks, there are many, it simply doesn’t pose the same risks.
