The powers of the unlinked are mistaken for magic much of the time. Outwardly there is little difference between many of their skills and the spells of a mage. Beyond the superficial, these powers come from a completely different source. The following sections are a description of these powers.

How to read a power listing:
The powers listings are organized by type of unlinked that can wield them. The following is a list of terms so that one can better understand the miracle listing.
Cost: All powers cost a certain amount of mind points or, MP to cast depending on the power of its effect and the difficulty to bring that effect into being.
Effect: This is a description of what the power actually does to its intended target. This effect only takes place if the target is hit by the power.
Range: This is a description of how close or far away an unlinked can be to cast the power. There are three main ranges that most powers fall under. Personal means the power only affects the unlinked. Touch means the power can affect any target the unlinked personally touches. Bead Bag means the unlinked can throw the power by using a bead bag as a physical representation of that miracle.
Duration: This is a description of how long a power effect lasts. There are three main durations that most powers fall under. Instant means the power’s effect triggers instantly and completely in a single moment. When there is a specified time this means the power lasts on its target for that amount of time. Dawn means that the power lasts on its target until the next dawn or has been triggered, whichever comes first.
