[Path of Elements] Void rituals
For Path Magic with Effect shaping. I have the four Aristotelian elements, plus void, and I can't think of any rituals for the Void element in Path of Elements. Does anyone have any bright ideas?

Re: [Path of Elements] Void rituals
If you are referring to Ritual Path Magic with effect shaping.
Void can be space and/or nothingness. Look at DF 9 Summoners for a list of GURPS spells for Void/Sound/Ether. Page 12 |

Re: [Path of Elements] Void rituals
Thank you both. I knew that I had seen Void college somewhere, but I couldn't find it.

Re: [Path of Elements] Void rituals
One alternate possibility is to follow the Aristotelian system further. For that tradition, the fifth element (the "quint-essence") was not Void (vacuum was philosophically impossible), but rather the material of which the Celestial Spheres were made- star-stuff, if you like. This suggests magic to channel the Light of the sun and the Darkness of night, as well as Divination spells based on the influence of the mathematically predictable motion of the planets.
