Theme/Occult

The Occult Theme is the intersection of the worldly, material and rational with the otherworldly, ethereal and strange. The powers of the occult are seldom explainable and even more so scientific. Occult powers can be drawn upon from many sources, ranging from spirits, ghosts and unexplained phenomenon, to curses and blessings and finally old gods and powers from the places beyond the planes.

Occult users use magical powers in some capacity, but some more than others. This ranges from hex warriors that curse their enemy before they cut them down with their bonded weapons, to warlocks and witches that perform rituals and powerful magic. What signifies a person with occult powers, is most often their inability to really be fully drained of their powers. As long as they have it, it is either cast with full power or not at all.
