Enchantress

Not to be confused with Item Crafting, which is also sometimes known as Enchantment.

Enchantment is the art of utilizing the connections to perform esoteric feats. Those who utilize this form of magic exclusively are known as Enchanters or Enchantresses. Enchanters/Enchantresses specializing in control are also known as Spellbinders.<ref>Landon Michaelsson, Spellbinder

“Spellbinder,” Joyce said. When I looked a bit confused, she added, “An enchanter, but specialized in control.

He keeps three or four Others with him at all times.  I named him 

because he broke the rules. He’s paranoid, and doesn’t really associate

with people.  Only Others.  We’d hoped to use her as a way to bring him
back to society, to get him involved.  But we underestimated his 

paranoia.”
“What happened?”
“He bound his wife. To keep her from passing information on to us. Bound her mind and bound her bodies, so she only does what he says.”
“Hypnosis?” I asked.
“The binding is as solid as hypnosis is soft and vague. He’s… scary. In a lot of ways. I don’t think the family would miss him if he

was gone, but we invested in him, we lost a family member to connect to him, and I guess Sandra decided that if we’d paid the price, we might as well…” - Excerpt from Execution 13.5</ref> The school has some overlap with Sympathetic magic.<ref>Sympathy is a branch of the practice that deals with 

commonalities, heavily tied to enchantment. Expert sympaths can form a connection between a doll and a person, and inflict harm on the individual by harming the doll. - Sympathetic Magics, quoted in Malfeasance 11.2</ref>

Methodology

Enchantresses and Enchanters manipulate the connections between people and things, and the ties that bind them all together. This enables manipulating awareness, memories, emotions, ownership or even Fate to an extent while masking their own connections. Even a novice can be devastatingly effective against an ordinary person and skilled users can even take away a Familiar and make it their own, so forming any kind of connection with one is risky because they can use and exploit it.

Often enchanters will use Spirits to manipulate connections, but there are other means of use as well.
