-Those who are [[dimension:locations:corporeal_rift:astrology|suited]] have the capability to use the metamagic found in the Corporeal Rift. Similar to most forms of magic, doing so takes training.

 Incantations are recipes to recall and recite these complex processes, whereas runes and spells are used for their symbolic potency in order to produce desired effects. Often, drawing a rune is not enough, and it is the combination of the spell with a state of mind that produces the effect. Incantations are recipes to recall and recite these complex processes, whereas runes and spells are used for their symbolic potency in order to produce desired effects.

-The spheres may not be sensibly linked, but they do constantly shift in a sort of primordial, abstract soup within the Rift. As a result of this 'movement', occasionally a small portal will be opened up to allow travel between spheres.

 Colloquially known as 'crossovers', these portals can remain open for anywhere between a couple of days and months on end. Their locations in their given spheres are consistent, even if their accessibility is not.  Colloquially known as 'crossovers', these portals can remain open for anywhere between a couple of days and months on end.
