Invoker

The invoker school teaches how to use a personalised magical or alchemical focus to produce elemental effects. This school excels at controlling the battlefield and supporting allies.

Foci

Invokers use a Focus, a personalised alchemical or magical item (whichever is more appropriate to your character) imbued with Energy to use focus powers. Foci don’t require a vocal to activate, but some invokers find a verbal element helps. Foci are typically held in the hand (which can be your offhand, not requiring ambidexterity) or worn. Foci can’t be used as weapons, even if larp-safe. Invokers are very attached to their focus, and it’s not possible to remove a focus by any means.

Foci can be constructed by various means, and can be many different types of object. Something that's common to all successfully constructed foci is a personal connection of some sort, either the focus is based on an object of personal importance to the invoker, or it was personally crafted by the invoker.

Examples of a magical focus could be an instrument, or scroll of thaumaturgic designs or a wand. An example of an alchemical focus could be a set of alchemical substances that you've learned to rapidly draw effects from.

Elemental Deflection		You can spend an energy to RESIST the entirety of a non-EPIC MAGIC call. This is not a focus power, so can be used while your focus is on cooldown and doesn’t put your focus on cooldown and doesn’t require you to touch your focus (though you must still have a focus on you). You can use this skill while performing other skills. You must wear a Magic Resistant tag to use this ability.
