Construction
Construction is a school of magic, focused upon creating magical things.
This is a very small school, but only if one disregards the hundreds of magic items that can be forged. Most of the research in Construction is devoted to them, in fact:
- Const 1 enables the forging of Trinkets.
- Const 3 enables the forging of Lesser Magic Items.
- Const 5 enables the forging of Greater Magic Items.
- Const 7 enables the forging of Powerful Magic Items.
- Const 9 enables the forging of all Artifacts.
Aside from that, and a single line of spells focused on making armor magical, there are plenty of troops to create.

Const 8
| Spell | Req | Effect | Stats |
