=== 1.2. Recognising Magical Buffs ===
Magical buffs are lasting spell effects represented by coloured cloth markers. These markers allow other players to quickly identify active magical effects during play.

* '''[[Magic#Arcane_Weapon|Arcane Weapon]] / [[Magic#Blessed_Weapon|Blessed Weapon]]''' - The weapon deals 2 HP damage to any location struck and counts as magical. Represented by a purple or white weapon sock.
** '''[[Magic#Greater_Arcane_Weapon|Greater Arcane Weapon]]''' and '''[[Magic#Greater_Blessed_Weapon|Greater Blessed Weapon]]''' function identically but may only be cast on two-handed weapons.
