Revive your allies with a whispered incantation or summon occult pets to do your bidding. Characters who wield the unseen forces of the universe hold the power of life and death in their hands. Sorcerers can doom enemies to failure or ensure their allies have the power to carry on the fight. They are ideal for combat support, often tipping the balance of a fight with their spells.

Specializing in Healing abilities, Sorcery is a Power Set available for a character during Character Creation.
