<p>Importing text file</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div><br /> <br /> <br /> Names have significant mystic importance in folklore, and this is reflected in [[Ars Magica]]. There are several applications of this concept.<br /> <br /> At the most basic level, a person&#039;s nickname or birthname can be used by a magus to increase [[penetration]] through [[sympathetic magic]] (see [[ArM5]] p. 84). Since this requires an [[arcane connection]], it is not trivial to apply and confers only a small benefit. <br /> <br /> Names of beings of Might are more significant. The full name of an [[Airy Spirit|airy spirit]] forms an arcane connection of indefinite duration to it ([[TMRE]] p. 29, [[RoPM]] p. 110), which allows the magus to summon it as well as a +5 penetration multiplier. More generally, any &quot;intelligent entity with a personality and a Might score&quot; (which, arguably, includes just about any being of Might that will be of significane in the saga) has a True Name ([[RoPM]] p. 110), which confers the same benefit but is harder to learn (requiring [[experience point|experience points]] in the relevant (Realm) Lore). This includes angels and demons, as well as many Magical spirits (whether Faeries have a True Name remains unclear). <br /> <br /> Finally, [[Hermetic Synthemata]] are even more occult names. Any being with Might has synthemata, and they can be learned by theurgists ([[TMRE]] p. 86) as MuVi spells. Synthemata essentially assure Penetration, but are hard to learn and may be somewhat redundant considering the efficacy of a True Name.<br /> <br /> In addition, some magi can invoke [[Names of Power]] to bolster their magic. While these names call upon powerful [[daimon|daimons]] and occult entities, they have hold no power over them.<br /> <br /> == Related Topics ==<br /> <br /> * [[Hermetic Theurgy]]</div>
