Incarnate practices

Incarnate practices are magics that deal with Incarnations and related Others.<ref>“Nicolette, you know her. Auger, dipping into the Incarnate practices. Omens and stuff.” - 3.9 Bonus Material: SunnyDay Logs</ref> Those who employ them are called Incarnate practitioners.<ref name=":0">Incarnate practitioners who specialize in things like the Hungry Choir ritual or dealings with a specific Incarnation, such as Dream or Bondage, will have cause to come here.” - excerpt from Stolen Away 2.6</ref>

Methodology

Practitioners will often focus on a single type of Incarnation, such as Strife, Bondage, or Dream.<ref name=":0" />

Practitioners of this school will often have cause to visit The Ruins.<ref name=":0" />

A practitioner of this school might set Omens on a person. This might be as subtle as having the Omens follow them around causing social problems, or as blatant as causing a person to instantly fumble a weapon they're holding and kill themselves. Omens can also be used as seeing-eyes for Augurs.

A power source for a Strife practitioner could be a collection of blood from people who have been touched by different types of disaster.

With some Summoning resources and expertise, an Incarnate practitioner might construct something Incarnation-related like a Ritual Incarnate.<ref>“When dealing with an Augur [...] They focus primarily on immaterial things.  Echoes, spirits, incarnations- often especially

incarnations.  Any sentiment or pillar of human nature can be something
they specialize in.  Alexander was good at seeing the kinds and shapes 

of Strife, capital S, and karmic flows.  When he incurs a karmic debt, he is good at staying ahead of it until he can discharge it

or pass it on.  I would imagine that if he’s a teacher at this school 

of his, he would be teaching some classes on Karma.”

Verona took notes.

“The Strife aspect was part of what we were going to summon, that day

I was forsworn,” Charles said.  “The specialty in tracking karma was… 

something I should have anticipated.” - excerpt from Out on a Limb 3.1 </ref>

A powerful Incarnate practitioner might project the thing they specialize around themselves by their presence or by using their Sight, such as a Strife practitioner causing their allies to fight among themselves.<ref>“With Nicolette sending omens in to investigate… she was looking for trouble, and then more trouble happened.  That’s how Melissa got hurt.  Does Alexander cause strife to happen by turning his Sight on things?”

“It surrounds him, yes.  He’s good at navigating it, to the extent that it may be something of a shield of his.  His underlings may fight more among themselves as a consequence.” - excerpt from Out on a Limb 3.1 </ref>
