The '''lab total''' is the sum of all bonuses that apply when a character performs some sort of [[laboratory]] work. Such bonuses come in form of the [[Arts]] involved to create the [[Magic|magical]] effect, as well as a [[Characteristics|characteristic]] (primarily [[Intelligence]]), an appropriate [[Ability]] (most predominantly [[Magic Theory (Ability)|Magic Theory]], but narrower specialties do apply sometimes), the local [[aura]], and situational modifiers, such as [[Shape and Material bonus]]es for enchanting items. The higher the lab total the [[magus]] achieves, the more powerful the effect that can be created, researched, or enchanted. Likewise, a high lab total allows for faster accomplishment of the work at hand. | |||

The lab total is the sum of all bonuses that apply when a character performs some sort of laboratory work. Such bonuses come in form of the Arts involved to create the magical effect, as well as a characteristic (primarily Intelligence), an appropriate Ability (most predominantly Magic Theory, but narrower specialties do apply sometimes), the local aura, and situational modifiers, such as Shape and Material bonuses for enchanting items. The higher the lab total the magus achieves, the more powerful the effect that can be created, researched, or enchanted. Likewise, a high lab total allows for faster accomplishment of the work at hand.
There are various ways of how to boost one's lab total. For example, some Virtues, such as foci, apply to specific activities in the laboratory.
