A couple of things about spellcasting

Should you see lines like "Arcane Spellcasting" and/or "Divine Spellcasting" in your role PM, it means that you are a spellcaster and you will be able to cast spells thorough the game.

You will get a separate role PM with the spells at your disposal and detailed instructions on how to cast them.
However, we thought to give you a sneak peek on how (some) of this works.

You will be able to cast spells during spellcasting sessions that will be open from d2 onwards.

This is how one of the spells at your disposal might look:

Spell LevelSpell NameEffectsTargetCasting TimeCooldown
5Righteous MightIncrease your basic ITA hit rate by 30% for the next ITA sessionSelf50 posts50 posts

Those that played Baldur's Gate will have noticed that this spell was not present in the actual video game. So this is a good time to mention that, in fact, some of the spells in this game are not present in the video game.
This spell is not present in the WW game, either. It's just an example.

Let's analyze some parts of this table.
Spell level: The more powerful a spellcaster you are the bigger the range of spells you have at your disposal. Also, the higher level of a spell, the higher the cost of casting. We are not going to speak of the cost of casting here, though.
Target: you can only cast this spell on yourself.
Casting time: 50 posts in this case. This means that once you submit the spell
i) You will be unable to perform any other game action (except voting and participating in events) in the next 50 posts.
ii) The spell will take effect once these 50 posts are over.
iii) If you were disrupted during the act of spellcasting (i.e. during the time you were casting the spell) your spell fails.
Please note that some spells have a casting time of 0. This, of course, means that their intended effects will start as long as you submit the spell.
Cooldown: 50 posts in this case. After you cast a spell, you will be unable to cast other spell during the cooldown period (but you will be able to perform any other game action at your disposal).

Q: Alright, but how do I cast a spell?
A: Usually by sending a PM with the spell name and the intended target in the body. Exceptions will be discussed with the spellcasters themselves.

This is easier than it might sound. All you have to do is
i) Verify that you are able to cast the spell
ii) Be mindful of the casting times and cooldowns.

You might have misunderstood that. If the cooldown period is equal to 50 posts, it means that 50 posts need to pass before you can start casting another spell. It doesn't say that the spellcaster himself needs to make them.

UD, I am already super impressed by the game, and I wish you godspeed and good luck in your efforts to mod the inevitable torrent of spell and role action PMs coming your way.

Sounds terrible. I applaud you.
