Spell Classes
Contents
Overview
Spell classes are categories of magical spells from a variety of schools that all serve a similar function, usually tailored to a specific outcome. Each class has a counter class which represents its conceptual opposite, for example Banishment is the counter class to Summoning and vice versa.
Spell Class: Banishment
Counter class: Summoning
Spells in the Banishment class are concerned with the removal of entities and objects, whether from the caster's immediate location or even from the current plane of existence. They are conceptually opposite to the Summoning class.

The Circle of Spell Classes
The circle of spell classes is a visual representation of the twelve classes and their conceptual alignments in relation to one another. While the proximity of the spell classes to their neighbours is designed to be as closely linked to one another as possible, this is purely conceptual and has no practical impact.
If for any reason the image above is not visible then the table below provides a similar visual representation of the same concept:

| Binding | Perception | |||

| Manipulation | Translocation | |||
| Domination | Destruction | Transmutation |
