I have in the past briefly touched on this sort of thing. first, there was *symbolism,* i flunked that. then, there was *telepathy* powers, i did quite well at that. then, there was *psionics* where you channel your own energy into the world around you, manipulating it with your own power, which is very powerful but tires you too quickly. so, i decided to *charm* the universe into altering itself for the good of the person, then i went onto more of an *innate stuff,* moulding the mind into making you look more attractive and provocative, and, mastering your own emotions. there is also *praying magic* where you may use the spirit to do your work for you, but that is usually evil, and i stray away from that, and you should too. now, i have decided to round up some more 'cleric spells' as in the game setting of dark sun, the clerics have their gods accepting themselves as elements, or, blending with the elements. in this sort of magic you will charm them into changing for you, so, it is like communication, as, all energy merely communicates in my friendliest of explanations, or, changes forms if you prefer.
