Matter Perceptions - The Disciple of Matter begins by
recognizing the various Patterns f Matter, including the underlying
structures that give objects their shapes and physical properties.
With these perceptions, she can detect things hidden from normal
senses. In addition to sensing the composition and properties of
Matter, the Disciple can discern structures hidden within
structures; material no longer forms a barrier to her senses.
Basic Transmutation - The mage may transmute on
substance into another, without changing its shape, temperature
or basic state. Mages of mystick Traditions can change milk into
cream or mahogany into oak, while scientists change water to
acid or lead into gold.
Alter Form - At the third rank of Matter, the mage can
finally overpower the rigid Patterns of reality. By selectively
altering different aspects of an object's Pattern, he can change its
shape however he desires - compressing it to increase its density
and decrease its volume while retaining the same weight, inflating
it s as to decrease its density and increase the volume, or
temporarily changing the state, so that solids become liquids or
liquids become gas.
Complex Transmutation - Adepts of Matter may now
perform radical changes to physical materials and craft complex
and intricate items involving several common substances or one
or two rare ones. Any sort of regular mater may be changed into
any other.
Alter Properties - At this pinnacle of understanding,
Masters of Matter may create new substances which do not exist
in nature by taking existing materials and altering their physical
properties, such as boiling or melting points, density, ductility,
transparency, viscosity, refraction indexes, etc.
