P

[Odivshe]

One of the six convocations of the Shek-P’var philosophy of magic. Odivshe is the magic of slow, cool darkness, of water and ice, the opposite of fire and action. Odivshe mages study and work their spells on water and shadow, ice and cold. They are sometimes called the wizards of gloom. Odivshe foci invariably incorporate water and/or ice.

As well as these mundane elements, the Odivshe sometimes manipulate ethereal water. This “substance” takes a variety of forms, generally similar to ordinary water, but thinner, sometimes invisible. often it is described as an “icy pallor that robs away the breath and drowns the very spirit with its dark, clinging, gloom”.
