===== Spell paths documentation =====
- Long ago a number of archmages discovered patterns in the web that spells

- These mages found that by molding their thought patterns to match the patterns
- of the spells they could better utilise all the spells of the group. Because
- of their disciplined approach, the mages were described as following spell

- they would become repelled from others, and in some cases found they were
- denied any access to some paths. The legacy of these mages remains in some

In the same way that players and objects can be protected, immune, and
vulnerable to the different types of attacks, they can now be attuned,
repelled, or denied access to the different spell Paths. An object that
is attuned to a Path cast spells from that Path at 80% of the spell point

Paths are quite powerful and shouldn't be given away cheaply. Ideally, most
objects with path_attuned attributes should have path_repelled and path_denied
attributes as well, to balance out (eg attuned to Fire, repelled from
