To generate a magical technique:
Choose a maximum range, this determines the efficiency of your FP to effect ratio.
Melee range: 2:1 ratio
Close range: 1:1 ratio
Medium range: 0.75:1 ratio
Long range: 0.5:1 ratio
The maximum range of the spell selected here and the actual range of the spell are not always the same. Unless otherwise noted they follow the standard ranges for spells (Touch, Close, Medium, Long).
All fractional ratios are rounded to the closest whole number.
Thus with a melee range spell you double your FP to determine the final effects of the spell
Next choose an effect dependent on which kind of slot you have available, certain moves are limited to certain range categories as noted in their descriptions. Effects marked with an (A) are capable of being augmented by spending part of the total effect of the spell on the augment instead of the normal effects of the spell.
