All spells can be classified into one of the eight spell types noted below.

Casting a spell requires determining the spell type and relevant base effect
you want to achieve. Various Magic Skills can be used to cast certain spell types – though some skills limit or expand the capabilities of the spell. Each
spell type has a core effect and base difficulty, but before you attempt the spell, you may increase the difficulty to add one or more additional effects
to the spell. However, you can never add effects that would increase a spell’s difficulty beyond Formidable ( ).
