Meditative High Magic: High Magic Paths

This is an inside out style of high magic. The mystic traverses high magic regions within themselves. There are two types of regions; there are spheres of pure power and the paths between them. You begin by acquiring the high magic power, High Magic Paths (e) (MP).

High Magic Paths

When the skill is first acquired the mystic gains the ability to traverse Path 1: The Path of Initiation. Each path traversal requires an hour to traverse the first time. The mystic, and only the mystic, requires only a few minutes to traverse a path after the first time. Successful completion of a path has an invigorating effect; all who accomplish this acquire the condition Exhilarated (e) at the level of success of the path. This gives the character a positive outlook and directly works against negative influences. This condition is reduced by one pip per day until it reaches 0, when it is gone. Here are examples of specials for High Magic Paths:
