Ars NouveauModular spellcraft — build your own spells from Glyphs, mana from leylines, magic-themed automation
About
Glyph-based spellcrafting. Find glyphs (Project, Touch, Harvest, Heal, Fire, AOE, etc.) and combine them on the Scribe's Table into spells inscribed onto a Spell Book or Spell Crossbow. Project + Fire + AOE = throwable fireball. Touch + Harvest + Pickup = right-click crops to auto-harvest. Mana regenerates from leylines (lush biomes); store excess in mana jars. Familiars (Starbuncle, Whirlisprig, Wixie) automate base tasks. Sourcestone blocks form a magic-tech infrastructure.
Things to do
- Find first glyphs via foraging (Loot Bags from spell harvested mobs)
- Scribe's Table — combine glyphs into custom spells
- Spell Book / Spell Bow / Spell Sword wear your spell
- Familiars (Starbuncles, Whirlisprigs) for passive automation
- Source Jars + Source Relays for mana infrastructure
