Navigation / path-finding.

Oh duh!

I still dont wanna count lagamorph summoning šŸ’€šŸ’€


PM_me_your_fav_poems

Same. I also don't count Cloning / Mirror of Silence, because he uses it to a much lower degree than his father does, and he studied the spell / theory to create the ritual before he even had any other memories. I don't think it counts as one of his 7 diciplines. I think he has: * Binding / Sealing * Water Elementalism * Pathfinding / Navigation * Horizon * Curses (Sealed away) * Unused #1 * Unused #2 And then can also use Lagomorph contract, cloning, crude telekinesis and probably some other minor stuff. Keeping 2 unused would be good from a writing perspective, because if this is going to be a 6 or 7 book series (Crew + "The Ship"?), it's good to have multiple future reveals set up, and a place to build to.

Yeah the bunnies just donā€™t seem to have the punch to be a pinnacle spell and if he was specialized in contracting/summoning, then youā€™d have expected to see it. It seems like a simpler thing that heā€™s utilized rather than a pinnacle. Like, absolute burial removes something from existence and banishes it to sub space. His water elementalism creates attacks big enough to dwarf a planet (with staff help). His path finding is the most advanced divination we see, able to basically predict the future in real time. Mirror of silence is used to force multiply things a dozen times. Summoning a few bunnies is not on that level.

Illusion


SlimReaper85

Itā€™s not an illusion, they are real. Mirror of Silence transformed the Iron Legion from one fleet to a more than a dozen. Which is kinda badass that Last Horizon still took them out at less than full strength with Omega causing mischief. Itā€™s like that mutant Jamie Madrox that can multiply himself except it also includes items. Or Narutoā€™s shadow clone technique. They are real copies and so a force multiplier. Hey I donā€™t know how it works. As Varic says ā€œItā€™s magicā€


Expensive_Schedule92

His dad is very specifically declared as an illusion mage and it is the Pinnacle spell that granted him the archmage title as an illusion mage, it is the highest level of illusion and is noted for being exceptional even among archmage spells. It's just an illusion that is so powerful that it creates clones. I repeated things a lot in there because it was very specifically stated multiple times


SlimReaper85

Apologies but I think youā€™re mistaken. The word illusion is utilized exactly once. Talking about the bounty on an Archmage who DOES specialize in illusion. But heā€™s someone completely different, and hes called the Dragonslayer. Varic is impressed they want him so bad but dismisses going after him. Benri and Varic are not illusionists. Nor are either referenced as such. They can make copies. Of anything in reality. Apparently what Benri and Varic do is manifest temporary possibilities of their targets whether itā€™s a personā€”themselves or othersā€”or a thing. These ā€œmirrorsā€ are reflections of possibility brought into being. They are REAL. Not illusions.

Iā€™m pretty sure the water elemental is actually a part of his binding kit. Whenever he doesnā€™t want to show too much (as in the fact that he has more than 1 type of magic) he only uses sealing/binding and water.


Rikulz

No, water element is mentioned in the second life he lives as the blue power ranger. Pathfinding he knew after the first life where he dies to the iron king. Third life he was killed by the secret organization and a specific magic wasnā€™t mentioned. 4th life was not mentioned again when he was killed by that hero guy. Curse magic is mentioned in his 5th life served under the queen. His original magic is binding and sealing. And the final magic is the last horizon spell.


AsleepAnt8770

He has curse magic but refuses to use it.
