(OOC) FAQ, since getting a lot of repeat DMs
1. How can I learn and study Sorcery ICly?
See the wiki page. This is information that's freely available as several nations now have a Court Sorcerer. You can also find a physical tome within the main chambers of the Aetius kingdom's castle.
2. Is Sorcery difficult to learn?
Yes. It's a highly advanced magical art that requires intermediate knowledge of rituals and a creative mind You're expected to take the basics as foundations and make it your own, have goals that are unique to your character... it's similar to artificer in many regards, as lines will cross and that it's entirely personal to your story.
3. Can I learn Sorcery without a mentor?
Yes and no. Attempting the rite alone is possible but will leave your character with heightened madness, but you can apply for it as you would any other class via the form. A good way to flavor the wait for a response is grappling with the overwhelming nature of the Endless and witnessing infinity; if there isn't a reply then you simply didn't manage to connect with it and might end up a wandering madman for a time.
Sorcerers are few and far between. Those that do advance in the art typically end up as advisors and court magicians within a kingdom, or a reclusive vagabond.
