Believed to have been revealed to mortals by the faerie folk they first encountered, Primal magic taps into the beast within all living things, drawing forth one’s innate wildness to grant strength and durability in the face of adversity.

Primal spells can call animals from nature and recruit them to service, or can impart bestial traits to their casters and those they touch, helping the recipients become fearless and more powerful.

Primal magic has many practitioners among those who practice the Old Faith, especially those who feel an affinity for the Horned Lord. Students of this tradition tend to wear their magical knowledge in the flesh. Many are wild, hairy, vicious, and filthy from running naked through the wilderness. Others, having studied the tradition, manifest peculiar changes, their eyes shifting color to match those found in animals, nails lengthening into crooked claws, or hair becoming a thick mane that hangs down past their shoulders.
