[QUOTE="Kelleris, post: 2170844, member: 19130"] IMC, magic results from an inherent instability in reality. It's not good or bad or particularly chaotic (at least in the sense of having anything to do with the gods and planes of Chaos), and it simply results in very minor fluctuations in the laws of reality. Mages can exploit these changes and guide them to produce noticeable effects, because reality is also somewhat pliant to human will (or intellect, or asking a god nicely, or whatever). Something most mages don't know is that these instabilities actaully result from "holes" cuased by the Far Realms in the gods' original construction of matter and time from chaos. I don't use corruption rules for normal casting, but chaos mages/alienists do (powerful) magic by inducing the local area to become metaphysically closer to the Far Realms, causing more instability in physical laws and therefore creeating an explosive potential for magic use. If you play it that way, there's corruption aplenty. [/QUOTE]
