All spells are cast by invoking words of power. These words have to be spoken when activating the spell, in order to power of the forces being utilized. The correct combination of the syllables, combined with the proper [[reagent]]s, is what defines the spell. Following are the known words of power, and their meanings. There are 26 pseudo-Latin morphemes echoed by players when spells are cast. Tier 1 spells have one morpheme, Tier 2 spells have two morphemes, and Tier 3 spells have three morphemes. For example, [[Healing Touch]] is ''Reno'', [[Healing Ray]] is ''Asen Reno'', and [[Healing Burst]] is ''Wast Gaus Reno'' {{Navbox |title=[[Words of Power]] |group1=Asen |list1=Up, Raise |group2=Bet |list2=Small |group3=Corp |list3=Death |group4=Desen |list4=Down, Lower |group5=Exim |list5=Release, Negate, Remove |group6=Frigo |list6=Cold |group7=Gaus |list7=Energy |group8=Hex |list8=Stupefy, Stun, Curse |group9=Ignis |list9=Flame, Ignite |group10=Jura |list10=Injury, Harm, Danger, Trap |group11=Kaus |list11=Chaos |group12=Lumen |list12=Light |group13=Motus |list13=Movement, Motion, Distance |group14=Nox |list14=Poison |group15=Obix |list15=Barricade |group16=Presti |list16=Illusion, Magic |group17=Quaes |list17=Invoke, Pray, Summon |group18=Reno |list18=Healing, Renew, Renaissance, Revitalize, Grow, Life |group19=Sanct |list19=Protect |group20=Terra |list20=Earth |group21=Umbra |list21=Darkness |group22=Vertu |list22=Virtue |group23=Wast |list23=Vast, Great, Huge |group24=Xen |list24=Creature |group25=Ylem |list25=Primordial Matter |group26=Zeph |list26=Wind, Burst, Area-of-effect }} ==Trivia== * The first Words of Power were revealed during the [https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/?p=51659 Postmortem] for [[Release 19]]. The video for this is no longer available. * The remainder of the Words of Power were revealed during the Postmortem (exact link needed) for [[Release 26]]. A link to this specific information is needed to verify the above listing for accuracy. * Spells in the Ultima series have always used words of power. In [[ultima:Ultima I|''Ultima I'']] and [[ultima:Ultima III|''Ultima III'']], these [[ultima:Sosarian_Magic|invocations]] were Latin-like, however since [[ultima:Ultima IV|''Ultima IV'']] the [[ultima:Britannian_Magic#Words_of_Power|words of power]] were standardized and codified.
