| **Communions** are a path-boosting, load-sharing strategy, which [[Magic|Mages]] can use in combat. In a Communion, **Masters** do the spellcasting, and so-called **Slaves** stand at the ready to shoulder [[Fatigue]]. | **Communions** are a path-boosting, load-sharing strategy, which [[Magic|Mages]] can use in combat. Mages generally join a communion as either Masters or Slaves. **Masters** do the spellcasting and so-called **Slaves** help shoulder [[Fatigue]]. |

| Only the primary path of the spell in question is taken into account, though communions/sabbaths/choruses do boost all paths the Master has. Likewise, the Fatigue multiplier is calculated for each Slave individually. The minimum Fatigue cost for assisting in spellcasting as a Slave is 1. | Only the primary path of the spell in question is taken into account, though communions/sabbaths/choruses do boost all paths the Master has. Likewise, the Fatigue multiplier is calculated for each Slave individually. The minimum Fatigue cost for assisting in spellcasting as a Slave is 1. If a Slave cannot handle all of the Fatigue meant for them (due to it pushing them over 200), they take 1 [[hit points|HP]] damage [[internal damage|inside]] their [[afflictions#hit-area|head]], with the standard chance for more damage if their Fatigue would be pushed above 250. |

| Any spell the Master of a Communion/Sabbath/Chorus casts, if it only targets the Master, **also targets the Slaves**. For example, a Sabbath Master may cast ??Reinvigoration?? to wipe the Fatigue off both themselves and their Slaves. | Any spell the Master of a Communion/Sabbath/Chorus casts, if it only targets the Master, **also targets the Slaves**.

| Communion/Sabbath/Chorus Slaves **may not do anything else** while serving a Master. They are helpless. "Service" is automatic, upon a matching Master of the same team being found. "Service" only happens in combat, though, so designated Communion Slaves like [[phlegra-ma|Phlegra's]] may still do things on the strategic map. | Communion/Sabbath/Chorus Slaves **may not do anything else** while serving a Master.
