Auxdata is how you change charges left on a sorcery item.

• Sorcery abilities are learned from magic tomes or through special Valrei items.
• Each sorcery item comes with its own unique ability as well as a resistance and a weakness to a certain type of damage.
• On Freedom: Sorcery items have a chance to be dropped by a unique monster upon death. (These are dropped before the butcher, similar to how a troll may drop a Troll club). These tomes have 1 or 3 charges.
  • Dragon unique tomes will only have 1 charge.
  • Humanoid uniques have a higher chance at dropping a tome, however they will not drop drake hide or dragon scale like dragons. These tomes have 3 charges.
• On Epic: Sorcery items are acquired through the completion of missions and obtaining scenario points. If the main god of your kingdom wins the current scenario on the Valrei map, then each scenario point acquired works like a raffle ticket (a random point is drawn and a sorcery item is given). These tomes have 1 charge on Epic.

• Each sorcery item comes with charges that grant its effect to the player that uses it. To gain powers from a sorcery item, it must be used near an altar. Attempting to 'use' it in an inappropriate place will result in a message telling you what other conditions must be fulfilled. Do note that a bowl on the ground also counts as an altar.
• Titles are also granted to players who obtain certain sorcery powers. See chart below for more details.
• In order to cast sorcery spells, activate a gem staff, right click your target, and choose the spell. Be mindful that sorcery spells cost karma.
• Sorcery spells scale with mind logic just as priest spells scale with channeling, cast speed scales with mind speed
• Casting sorcery spells uses between 500-750 karma per cast depending on the tome

(1) Uses 500 karma. You must have 500 karma to use this item.
(2) A normal metal bowl can be used in place of an altar to consume charges from sorcery tomes. The bowl has to be set on the ground, then activate the sorcery item to use on itself.

This is a purchase only item on Mythmoor, and is only available when there are deity slots available.

Sorcery spells require a gem staff to be able to cast them.

Gem Staffs:

• Sapphire staff
• Emerald staff
• Opal staff
• Ruby staff
• Diamond staff

• Gem staffs are used to cast sorcery spells. Generally, use of the staff to cast such spells involves a right-click and activation on some type of target that is within a certain acceptable range. The player must have access to the spells to be used with the staff in addition to having the staff itself.

• Gem staffs cannot be improved or repaired, and their quality level is unimportant to function. They do not take damage from using spells, however.
• Gem staffs are not considered melee weapons in Wurm and subsequently cause the player to use unarmed combat when they are equipped during melee combat situations. As such, they do not take damage from combat.
• A 37ql star gem and an 89ql staff combine to make a 51ql gem staff at 10 skill level in alchemy and 24 in natural substances. Further testing is needed for additional production details.
