About Five Magics(M5)

Why Five Magics(M5)

Five Magics is named because in addition to a robust and deep combat system, the system encompasses five mechanically distinct magic systems, namely Sorcery, Psionics, Ritualism, Pact Magic, and Null Magic.

All the Skills

M5 is a skills based system, which means that any character can learn any skill, even ones not expected of their party role. Because magic is largely limited only by skill selection, any character can dabble in ritualism or sharpen their psionic powers on the side.

Specialization is Key

However, the intricate system of perks means that a character's power is limited by the degree to which they specialize, so even if anyone can do anything, no one has the time to do everything.
