The Pech
Strange Creatures
Complexity: 1
Research Pages:
Page 1

These strange humanoids can be found wherever the veil between worlds is at its thinnest. They seem drawn to the magical energies that abound in such places.
Don't let their small stature fool you. They have incredible strength and can carry many times their own bodyweight.
Pech are normally not aggressive, but when riled up they will band together and hunt down their attacker. Under normal conditions they avoid people at all costs.
Pechs are notoriously avaricious, and will loot anything not nailed

down, though they prefer precious things. It is said that if you feed this desire for material wealth it could be possible to befriend one. Once befriended they often carry wondrous objects that they might be willing to part with.
It should be noted that such 'friendships' seldom last long.

Greatwood Trees
These large and majestic trees can be found dotted all over the countryside.
Their wood is able to absorb impressive amounts of magic making it a popular component in the crafting of magical devices.

Silverwood Trees
These rare and magical trees are a wondrous sight. Their leaves shimmer with magical energy and their pale, soft wood is valued for its purifying properties.
The trees magical nature is such that aura nodes often form within their hearts - this feature alone makes a silverwood sapling a prize beyond measure.

Shimmerleaf
The strange, glowing flowers only grow in the shadow of Silverwood Trees. They can be harvested and pulped to produce quicksilver.

Page 6

Cinderpearl
Found only in the hottest of climes, these plants burn with elemental fire. They can be harvested and ground to produce a fine powder akin to Blaze powder.

Page 7

Mana Pod
This strange, pod like plant is only found growing on trees in magical forests. They grow very slowly and when harvested usually only yield one or two beans.

Page 8

These beans, known as Mana Beans, contain concentrated amounts of essentia. They can also be consumed, though the results are often a bit unpredictable.
They can be replanted, but cultivation is difficult and time-consuming.
Wild mana pods usually only produce primal aspects, though it is said that planting beans adjacent to existing ones sometimes result in beans with compound aspects.

Enchantments
New Enchantments

Thaumcraft adds several unique enchantments.
Haste
This enchantment can be applied to footwear of all types and increases the wearer's land speed. The higher the enchantment level, the greater the speed bonus granted.
Repair
This enchantment slowly repairs the durability of items by drawing vis from wands in your inventory. The vis cost is determined by the value of the item.

Page 2

The higher the level of the enchantment, the quicker this takes place. This enchantment can only be applied to items made with Thaumcraft, and even then not all of them.

Ores
Dig deep
Complexity: 1
Research Pages:
Page 1

Infused Stone
On occasion there is so much primal energy in an aura that it will settle into solid stone to form Infused Ore. The magic forms crystals within the rock that can be harvested.

Page 2

These crystals have various elemental properties and have many uses in Thaumaturgy.
There are six types of infused stone, one for each of the Primal Aspects.
They can be combined together to form crystal clusters. Crystal clusters have no special properties beyond adding a touch of class to any home. Breaking a crystal cluster causes it to shatter into its component crystals.

Thaumonomicon
A Repository of Knowledge
Complexity: 1
Prerequisites: Research
Research Pages:
Page 1

To craft the Thaumonomicon, you must simply use your wand on a bookshelf placed in the world.
The Thaumonomicon is a reference book of all things thaumaturgical. It lists all the discoveries you have made so far and gives you a general impression of how many there are still to be made.
Whenever you successfully research something and use the scroll, it will automatically be added to this book. You can then browse through the discoveries and click on them to be shown more detailed information regarding them as well as any crafting recipes associated with those discoveries.

Knowledge Fragments
Fragments of lost lore
Complexity: 1
Prerequisites: Research
Research Pages:
Page 1

In your travels you might happen upon fragments of ancient and lost knowledge. On their own they are only worth a few research points when used, but if you gather enough of them together you might gain unique research that you can pursue. Usually the research they reveal cannot be gained through normal means.
The fragments of knowledge can on occasion lead to a false theory, but this will be revealed when you attempt to research it. When this happens most of your knowledge fragments will be returned to you and it usually means you have exhausted all current avenues of research into lost knowledge.

Auras and Nodes
Magic is everywhere
Complexity: 1
Research Pages:
Page 1

The Aura is a field of magical energy prevalent throughout the world. Its origin is unclear. Some believe it is the accumulated life force of living beings, while others believe it to merely be another type of energy seeping in from some other place. The last theory seems to be most likely, as the aura is often found surrounding a node of concentrated mystical energy known as an Aura Node.
Each aura node has a base amount of magical energy it can contain and this energy is aligned to one or more aspects. It is usually aligned to Primal Aspects, but rarely a node may contain Compound Aspects.

Page 2

The aspects within an aura node can be tapped by a thaumaturge for his own purposes. The simplest way to do so is with the use of a wand.
Energy that has been harvested in this manner is known as vis.
Aura nodes are hard to see with the naked eye, but faint glimmers of light often betray their presence. The Thaumometer makes nodes slightly easier to find, as looking through its lens makes them clearly visible.
Important: Caution must be taken when draining a node. There is a small chance that when a specific type of aspect within a node is completely drained, it may

Page 3

disappear or harm the integrity of the node.
It is possible for the node to disappear completely if all the aspects are used up.
Fortunately most nodes replenish their aspects over time and if properly maintained can provide a clever thaumaturge with all the vis he could want.
Nodes react in interesting ways to other nearby nodes and bigger nodes tend to drain the vis out of their smaller neighbors to increase their own girth.

Aspects of Magic
The building blocks of magic
Complexity: 1
Research Pages:
Page 1

Every item, object or creature is bound by varying mystical elements known as aspects. Aspects describe the object's makeup and bent towards the magical elements. A simple stone may possess the aspect of Terra while more complex items like trees or even creatures can be made up of various different aspects in varying amounts. There are close to 50 known aspects with more being discovered all the time.
There are two main types of aspects: Primal and Compound.

Page 2

Primal Aspects are the most basic types of aspects and there are only 6 of them: Aer (air), Terra (earth), Ignis (fire), Aqua (Water), Ordo (order), Perditio (entropy).
These form the basic building blocks of all other aspects.
Compound Aspects are built from two other aspects. The simplest compound aspects are made from two primal aspects, but it is possible to have incredibly complex compound aspects made from successive layers of simpler aspects.
The simplest example of such a compound aspect, is the aspect of Victus (life), which is a combination of Terra and Aqua.

Page 3

To view what aspects an item possesses, simply hover your cursor over the item and press sneak (shift), and you will see what aspects that item has and what amounts of each. You will first need to study the item however, until then the aspects will remain unknown.
Aspects that have somehow been separated from their object and purified is known as Vis and is very valuable: both as a crafting ingredient and as a subject for magical research.
Vis is most often bound into wands, but it is also possible to store it as a magical liquid. Vis stored as a liquid is known as Essentia.

Research
How you discover things
Complexity: 1
Research Pages:
Page 1

Before you can build most thaumaturgical items and blocks, you first need to discover how to do so. There are several steps in this process:
(1) Exploring the world and examining blocks, items and creatures with a Thaumometer
(2) Taking the research points you gathered from the first step and expanding your aspect knowledge with the Research Table
(3) Using the aspects you know and discovering practical knowledge and recipes with the Research Table.

Page 2

(1) Exploration
You cannot perform research without research points, and the best way to gain research points is by exploration and examining objects in the world.
The first thing you will need to do is construct a Thaumometer (see next page). By pointing the Thaumometer at objects or creatures and holding the right mouse button you will start examining them. The process does not take long, but your movement speed is reduced while it is occurring.
Once complete the Thaumometer will display what aspects the object contains. In the bottom right of the screen you will also see a summary of the aspects and research points

Page 3
Crafting Recipe

Page 4

you discovered.You will initially not be able to examine all objects since you have not discovered their component aspects. For example, an object containing the Lux aspect can only be examined if you have previously discovered the Lux aspect, or know

Page 5

the two aspects that combine to create it.
The very first time you discover an aspect by examining something you gain two more research points than you would have normally.
Objects and creatures can usually only ever be examined once.
Occasionally examining something will reveal additional clues and insights into thaumaturgical research, unlocking subjects that you can research further.
Research discovered in this fashion will have amber icons.

(2) Combining Aspects
Once you have gathered some research points you can attempt to combine them into compound aspects within a research table.
To craft a research table simply place two tables next to each other and click on them with a set of Scribing Tools. The recipe for tables is listed under the Artiface research category.
If you open the research tables inventory, you will see an interface as pictured on the right.
The scribing tools you used to craft the table will be located in slot 1.

Page 10

You should see all the primal aspects (and possibly some compound aspects) listed in the area marked 3 with varying amounts attached to them. When you enter a world for the first time, every player is assigned a small pool of primal aspects to get them started.
If you had done some exploring with

Page 11

the thaumometer beforehand then you might have a significant number of primal and compound aspects listed here.
You can now start combining aspects into more complex compound aspects but simply clicking on those you wish to combine or dragging it to the runic circles in area 4. The selected aspects will appear in area 4 and when you have two selected pressing the purple button will attempt to combine them. If successful you should see what was gained in the bottom right and it should appear in area 3.
The component aspects are consumed even if the combination did not result in valid compound aspect.

Page 12

(3) Primary ResearchYou need to be carrying a set of scribing tools and paper for this step.
If you open your Thaumonomicon you will see all the knowledge have and also all the knowledge that you are now able to pursue.
Flashing square or round icons represent primary researches.

Page 13

If you can read their title (instead of seeing strange runes) you are simply able to click on them. Paper and ink will be consumed from your inventory and you will gain a research note. You can now take this research note to the table to start researching it by placing it in slot 2.
Section 5 will now display a sheet of paper covered in hexagonal tiles with aspect icons around the outer edge. If you see question mark icons it means you do not know that aspect yet and you will need to learn it first.

Page 14

To complete your research you simply need to connect and activate all the aspects. You do this by dragging an aspect to a hex adjacent to it that is either composed of the target aspect, or can be combined with another aspect to form the target aspect.Placing an aspect consumes one research point. If you make a mistake you can click on the aspect to remove it, but you will not regain the research point.

Page 15

You continue doing this until you have formed a pattern connecting all the starting aspects. The outer aspects need not be connected to all the others, they simply need to form a connected whole.
Once this is done the research will complete and the research note will turn into a discovery.
NOTE: Placing and removing aspects from the hex grid consumes ink from your scribing tools. If it runs out you will not be able to proceed until you refill it.

Page 16

Secondary Research
Hexagonal icons indicate Secondary research. Much like primary research you just need to click on them. However instead of gaining a research note, you will simply learn the research directly. Secondary research does have an aspect cost you need to pay, but they do not require you to be carrying scribing tools or paper.

Warp, Flux and all things bad
Everything has a price
Complexity: 1
Research Pages:
Page 1

Warp
Many believe man was not meant to meddle with magic, and nothing gives more credence to this than the existence of Warp.
Researching forbidden magics or crafting objects of a questionable nature tends to distort a thaumaturge's view of reality, twisting both their minds and their bodies. This effect is called Warp.
While some warp gained is temporary and will fade over time, there is no known way to get rid of permanent Warp once it is gained and a thaumaturge who chooses to ignore the dangers in the pursuit of power

Page 2

often finds himself on a slippery slope.
Warp usually manifests as minor lapses in concentration, physical pain or hallucinations.
These are more than merely mental though, as the visions sometimes impart useful knowledge or seeming hallucinations prove to be frighteningly real.

Page 3

Flux
If Warp is the mental manifestation of magic gone wrong, then Flux is its physical manifestation.
Flux can manifest in three ways: a liquid, a gas and a physical malady. The first two manifestations are considered annoyances by most thaumaturges and is often the result of wasteful use of magic. It is not particularly hard to clean up, but coming into contact with it often causes the third manifestation: Flux Flu
Flux Flu is not particularly dangerous, but while a thaumaturge is suffering from it he finds it difficult to focus vis which often leads to increased vis usage to get something done.

There comes a point in any thaumaturge's career where he is unable to progress with research due to his lack of knowledge.
One possible recourse is the Deconstruction Table. The table allows you to break down objects into their simplest parts which you can examine. There are limits however - the table breaks compound aspects into their component aspects until only primal aspects remain. During this process much knowledge is lost and at best the thaumaturge can hope for is a single piece of primal knowledge.
For example iron (Metallum)

It is also fairly slow and the fewer aspects and object has, the lower the chance to discover something.

[Concealed] Node in a Jar

Research Pages:

Warded jars have proven themselves capable of storing all manner of mundane and mystical things, and you believe you have discovered another use for them - trapping aura nodes.
By constructing a large version of a jar around a node and enacting the proper mystical formula with your wand, the node will become trapped inside the construct which will quickly shrink to a more manageable size. The jar can then be safely picked up and moved around, but the initial trapping spell does have a very good chance of damaging the node.
The node is also frozen at the state it was in when trapped, and will

Research Pages:
Page 1

Most of the time a single wand is more than enough for any thaumaturge, but there are occasions that the vis it stores just isn't enough. Carrying more than one wand would solve this, but experimentation has shown that there is another way.
By crafting an amulet capable of storing vis, you will be able to recharge wands and other items in the field while it is being worn.
Your success has been mixed however. You can only recharge wands while holding them in your own hand and even then the recharge rate is slow.

Research Pages:

Wand foci are capable of amazing feats, but they aren't very flexible. A single focus is seldom capable of performing more than a single function.
You have discovered a way to upgrade basic foci to alter the way they manipulate magic. You simply need to place a focus in a Focal Manipulator and choose the upgrade you wish to apply to it. You also need to provide it with vis from relays and spend experience points to get the process started, but after that it is a simple matter of waiting.
Each focus can be upgraded up to five times,

Page 2

but each rank is doubles the cost.
While some upgrades can be applied multiple times or at any rank, many foci have upgrades that can only be applied at certain ranks or only if certain requisite upgrades had been taken at lower ranks. Experimentation is encouraged.
Upgrades are permanent - you are not aware of any method to remove unwanted upgrades so care must be taken when choosing them.

In your travels you have discovered several nodes that contain compound aspects, but as yet there has been no way to tap this rich source of vis. Until now.
This focus can be placed on top of a wand recharge pedestal which will allow any wand it contains to siphon off the compound vis from nearby nodes. Unfortunately each point of compound vis is broken down into a single point of primal vis and all the excess energy is lost. However it is a good start and you are sure you will discover better ways to access this resource.

An annoyance for any thaumaturge that performs regular arcane crafting is to constantly keep his wand charged.
Now that you have found a way to draw vis directly from nodes you are able to craft a Vis Charging Relay. This functions like a normal relay, but is designed to be placed on top of an arcane crafting table. It will draw vis from the relay and recharge wands placed in the table.
The only drawback is that it recharges much slower than it would from a wand recharging pedestal or doing it by hand.

Power to the People
Complexity: 2
Prerequisites: Node Stabilizer
Aspects: 3 3 6
Research Pages:
Page 1

Without vis nodes thaumaturges would not even be able to perform the simplest of tasks, but the nodes themselves have several limitations that make their use impractical for extensive operations. Foremost amongst these limitations is the fact that they are easily depleted and it takes quite some time for them to once again gather energy from mystical source they are connected to.
You think you may have found a way around that limitation. In effect nodes are tiny gateways to a mysterious font of mystical energy around which the energy slowly accumulates in the form of Vis. The gateway is so small that only a tiny

Page 2
Arcane Crafting
Vis Cost: 32 32 32

Page 3

amount of energy leaks into our reality. By levering open this doorway you can cause vis to pour forth in a torrent.
This is even more dangerous than it sounds however and careful steps must be taken during the entire process.
Firstly the node needs to be stabilized during the entire process. Once that is done you need to craft and place a Node Transducer above the node. When you apply a redstone signal to the transducer the node will begin converting to an energized node and quickly lose its stored vis in the process.
The process takes some time, but when it is done the node will

Page 4

change into an energized node. Caution should be taken to keep both the stabilizer and transducer active from now on.
Energized nodes no longer store or recharge vis, nor can vis be drawn from them with a wand or other means. Instead they produce a steady supply of CV (centi-vis, or a hundredth of a vis) each tick. This energy can be tapped by placing vis relays near the energized node.
Each relay acts as a conduit for CV and any number of relays can be placed within 8 blocks of an energized node. Relays also transfer energy to each other allowing you to create a network that transports vis to

Page 5
Arcane Crafting
Vis Cost: 8 8
→
Page 6

anything that needs it, like the Infernal Furnace.
Relays use a branching system, so each relay can have only one source (either another relay, or an energized node), but may have multiple child relays that branch off it.
You can also 'tune' a relay to one of the primal aspects by using an appropriate vis shard on it. Clicking on it with a wand will also cycle through the possible attunements. This does not limit what vis can flow through that relay, but does prevent it from connecting to any other relay except untuned ones or ones tuned to the same primal.

Page 7

The amount of energy a node produces per tick is finite so attaching too many devices to a single source might exceed the amount of CV it can produce.
It is possible to turn an energized node back into a normal node. Simply cut the redstone signal to the transducer and it slowly turn it back into a normal node. Caution should be taken however since the node will be completely drained of vis and thus runs the risk of being damaged.

This handy device has several beneficial effects if placed below a node.
Firstly it prevents the node from draining vis from other nodes, or being drained in turn. Secondly it prevents unstable nodes from losing their vis and it has a tiny chance of eventually removing the unstable condition completely. Lastly it has a very, very small chance of turning fading nodes into pale nodes.
This requires power however and the Node Stabilizer draws this from the node itself. It does not draw enough to reduce the vis of the node, but it does halve its normal recharge rate.

You can use this focus to trade dozens of blocks in the world with some you are carrying.
You must first choose the block you wish to change other blocks into by sneaking and right clicking on the desired block. When you then left-click on another block it will turn into the target block. Right clicking will transform a whole swathe of blocks.
You must be carrying enough target blocks, and the transformed blocks will replace them in your inventory. Only blocks with at least one face adjacent to open air or non-solid blocks will be transformed.

Some careful experimentation has shown you a way to expand the abilities of even the most basic wand.
By combining crystalline vis shards with quartz crystals and infusing them with magic, you are able to align the crystals into a mystical matrix.
If the proper types and amounts of vis is focused through this matrix, it will reshape the raw magical energies into something useful, controlled, and geared to a specific task.

Adding a focus to your wand is a simple task - simply press F while holding the wand, and any foci you a carrying will show up in a radial menu allowing you to choose from any of the ones you are carrying with a simple click.
Your initial experiments involved the shaping of fire, and the resulting focus proved to be a simple, but useful tool.
It is capable of sending forth a cone of elemental fire, burning all in its wake.

The casting wand is your most basic, but also your most important tool. It is what you use to craft objects, activate blocks like the crucible, and countless other tasks.
The most basic wand stores a very limited amount of magical energy (called vis) that it uses to perform its tasks. The replenish the energy in a wand, you must right-click and hold to draw vis from an aura node.
While holding a wand you will see a indicator on the top left of the screen that shows how much vis is stored within the wand.

Holding shift will display exact numbers held by the wand and any possible discounts you have to performing magical tasks.
Wands are always constructed by the combination of a rod and two end-caps. As you progress with your studies, you are sure you will discover different materials that you can use to craft rods and caps to make powerful wands. Only the basic wand can be put together in a normal crafting table. All other wands require the Arcane Workbench and will cost vis to construct.
The basic wand is constructed from mundane wood and iron, both of which make poor materials for working magic.

Up to now alchemy has been somewhat of a hit and miss affair - miscounted aspects, degrading essentia and ingredients that require manual labor to mix. This is finally a thing of the past.
The Thaumatorium is a marvelous invention that allows a thaumaturge to select which formula to use and what catalysts to add. It then automatically draws essentia from available sources using tubes. As long as there is a supply of catalyst it produces the required object perfectly, every time.

In the future you will definitely need to have ready access to multiple different kinds of aspects - not just primal aspects drawn from your wand.
Using basic alchemical principles you have devised a way to break down objects and convert them into essentia.
The first step in this process requires an Alchemical Furnace. The alchemical furnace works much like a normal furnace by burning coal to produce heat, but instead of smelting ore into metal, it breaks down objects into a slurry of raw, unprocessed essentia.

Page 3

The next step in the process is to take the essentia slurry and distill it using an Arcane Alembic.
To work, arcane alembics need to be placed on top of an alchemical furnace. The essentia slurry will slowly be drawn into the alembic and the individual aspected essentia separated out.
If the alchemical furnace is being powered by alumentum, this distillation process is much faster.
You can stack up to 5 different alembics on top of a single furnace.
The essentia can then be extracted out of an alembic using phials.

Bubble and Boil

To craft the Crucible, you must simply use your wand on a cauldron placed in the world.
The crucible is an important tool for any thaumaturge. It allows him to render physical objects into their component Essentia and recombine it again as he wishes.
The crucible needs to be placed over a source of constant heat and filled with water. Once the water starts boiling you simply throw any items you wish into the crucible and they will be broken down into their component Essentia.
If you know the proper formula and the mix of essentia within the

Page 2

crucible is correct, you can then drop a special item into the crucible known as a Catalyst. The catalyst draws the essentia into itself and transforms into a whole new item that the crucible then ejects.
Any leftover Essentia remains within the crucible for further use, but it is not a good idea to leave essentia within a crucible for too long.
Crafting also uses some of the water within the crucible and you will eventually need to refill it.
Essentia within the crucible is constantly degrading. Compound essentia degrades into one of its component aspects, and Primal essentia simply evaporates.

Page 3

Beyond the waste of resources, evaporating and degrading essentia can cause many strange side-effects.
You can empty a crucible by shift right-clicking on it with a wand. All the essentia is dumped into the atmosphere... not something you would want to do too often.

Salis Mundus
Salis Mundus, or Thaumaturge's Salt as it is more commonly known, is crafted by exposing a balanced vis shard to high enough heat that it shatters into a fine powder.

You have discovered several ways to transport essentia, but none of them has proven useful for large scale alchemical operations - until now.
You have unlocked the key to creating stable and relatively leak-free tubing. While mundane chemicals can be transported in glass, certain types of essentia either dissolve or simply pass right through it. By wrapping the glass in iron and treating it with quicksilver you have managed to protect it from even the most volatile types of essentia. Gold fittings finish off the piping system and make it visually appealing.

The tubes can be connected to all manner of alchemical devices, though warded jars and alembics are their primary targets.
Essentia flows through the tubes whenever something is connected to them that can accept it, like warded jars.
Jars containing different kinds of essentia will only draw their kind of essentia towards them. Tubes however can only draw and transport one kind of essentia at a time - the highest drawing strength will take priority. Without the proper use of valves it is quite easy for a network of tubes to get gummed up. The use of valves is essential.

The essentia valve acts much like a normal length of tubing, except it can be turned off by hand or a redstone signal. When this is done the flow off essentia through it will be cut off.
The Essentia Resonator is handy for troubleshooting your tube network. You can use it on a tube or other essentia using device to see what essentia it currently contains and the suction it is applying.

[Concealed] Alchemical Centrifuge
Taking things apart
Complexity: 2
Prerequisites: Advanced Essentia Tubes
Aspects: 3 3 3 3
Research Pages:
Page 1

The alchemical centrifuge is a wondrous invention that allows you to break essentia into its component parts.
When compound essentia flows into the centrifuge from below it will be slowly broken down into the primal or compound essentia that it is made from. Only one of the components is created for each point of essentia broken down.
The resulting essentia needs to be drawn from the top of the centrifuge. Because of the idiosyncrasies of the tube pressure system, it would be best to connect a Essentia Buffer to the top of the centrifuge (see next page).

The essentia buffer allows you to store a limited amount of essentia - 8 points total, though it can be made up of any combination of essentia types. Like a jar it has suction, though it applies the minimum amount of suction possible (1).
This means that is usually only able to draw essentia from an essentia source it is directly attached to. However tubes can be connect to all its sides, meaning that it is invaluable for getting essentia out of devices like the centrifuges that could contain variable types of essentia.
You can attach bellows to the buffer - each attached bellows increases its suction by 32.

Page 4

Additionally you can toggle individual connections on and off as with a normal tube, but if you shift click a connection, it will choke the suction back to 1 (blue band) or 0 (red band) on that side.
This allows for some interesting possibilities when routing essentia.

Some experimentation has led to an interesting discovery - the ability to imprint memories in inanimate objects. Your first attempt at using the discovery is doors, pressure plates and other blocks that remember who placed them.
The door can only be removed with a wand by the person who placed it. Additionally the door will refuse to open for anyone but its owner. The owner can also craft iron or gold keys that will grant others access to this door.

Arcane crafting and alchemy can go only so far. Something better is needed to create truly powerful mystical objects.
Infusion crafting is the process of infusing a single object with magical energy and the properties of other objects. You could, for example, infuse a stone with Aer vis and a feather and it would result in a very light stone.
As is usual with thaumaturgy, things are not quite that simple. To even get started with infusion crafting there are several things you need: A Runic Matrix, arcane pedestals and a ready supply of magic in the form of essentia.

Once you have your Runic Matrix properly placed into a structure commonly known as an Infusion Altar, you can begin to craft.
The central pedestal located under the matrix is where the item you wish to infuse will go. You will also need several more pedestals placed around the altar where you can place the blocks and items you wish to infuse into the target object. Lastly you will need warded jars or similar essentia containers holding the requisite amount of vis.
Once all this is gathered you can click on the Runic Matrix with a wand to start the crafting process.
During the first stage of crafting essentia will be drained

from nearby sources. Crafting will stall of there is insufficient essentia available - something that you do not want as will be explained on following pages.
Once all the required essentia has been infused into the target object, the other objects will have their essential essence drained. Only when this is done will the crafting process complete.
Infusion crafting is not without risks. The entire process involves forcing vast energies into a single object. Unpredictable things tend to happen.
Usually one of the fusion objects get

Page 7

knocked off a pedestal, or flux gets generated, but more catastrophic events are not unheard of.
The longer crafting continues due to unresolved problems like lack of vis or dropped items, the greater the chance of something bad happening.
These effects can be reduced by various means. Firstly you wish to keep the entire fusion structure as symmetrical as possible - take careful note of where you place pedestals and make sure they are balanced with other pedestals on the opposite side of the altar. When placing fusion items into them you may wish to keep them balanced as well. Lastly you can place occult paraphernalia around the

altar in symmetrical formations (things like candles, skulls, crystals, etc.). These will have the effect of reducing instability.

You have discovered a device capable of extending the range and power of an Excavation focus. Of even greater use is the fact that the machine can do so without your constant supervision. You merely need to place it on a specially constructed base, point it in the right direction with a wand and apply a redstone signal.
The arcane bore requires two things to function. The first is an excavation focus placed in its leftmost inventory slot. Any enchantments applied to the focus will also alter the functions of the bore.

Secondly you need to place any kind of pickaxe into the rightmost slot. The material of the pickaxe will have little effect on the operation of the bore, but the greater its durability, the longer it will last. Like the wand, any enchantments or special abilities of the pickaxe will also be applied to whatever the bore mines.
An arcane bore can only be placed above or below an arcane bore base. Any items mined will be ejected from the base in the direction its nozzle is pointing.
It will eject into an inventory if possible. This direction can be changed with a wand.

[Hidden] Mirror Magic

Research Pages:

You are now able to enchant a pair of magical mirrors that act as doorways to the void between the worlds. Anything shoved (or piped) through one mirror will pass through this realm and emerge from the other mirror - even across dimensional boundaries.
Unfortunately this realm is extremely hostile to mortal creatures like yourself so using these mirrors to transport living creatures is not yet possible.
To link a pair of these magical mirrors you simply need to place one of them in a desired location. You then right-click with a second

Page 2

mirror on the one you placed, and the pair will become linked. You may then place the second wherever you wish and items thrown into one will be ejected out the other.
Mirrors can only be linked in pairs, so while both are placed in the world and able to transmit items you cannot link them to another mirror. When you pick up a mirror it will remember the last partner it was linked with, allowing you to easily move it without having to relink it. While one of the paired mirrors is picked up, you may easily relink either of them.

Transporting items through mirrors places stress on the magical glass and to prevent it from shattering the mirror automatically slows down the rate at which items is spit out the other side. The greater the instability, the more the transfer rate is slowed.
This instability slowly lessens over time, but it can also be negated by relaying Ordo vis directly to the mirror.

Essentia mirrors, like their name implies, can transport essentia in the same way that magic mirrors transport items. There are a few important limitations however.

Research Pages:
Page 1

For ages now wizards and thaumaturges have been enchanting weapons, tools and armor by imbuing objects with their own life energy. While effective the process is tedious and the results are completely unpredictable. Your discovery of infusion crafting might have uncovered a solution to both those problems.
You have discovered a way to enchant objects with an infusion altar. Simply place the item you wish to enchant on the central pedestal and supply the proper ingredients and essentia.

Page 2

It also requires some life essence in the form of experience, but much less than would be normally required to enchant something. This experience is drawn from anyone near the infusion altar so care should be taken.
The essentia and experience costs listed in following recipes are for the first level of enchantment. To enchant an item to higher levels, simply perform the infusion process again - it can be repeated till the required enchantment has reached its maximum possible level. Essentia and experience cost are multiplied by the level of enchantment you are performing, so a level II enchant costs twice as much as a level I.

Page 3

Additional costs might is also required if the item already contains enchants other than the one you are currently performing. This cost is usually around 10% per level of enchantment. So enchanting a sword with Fire Aspect I that already contains Smite III will cost 30% more.
Instability also increases as the total number of enchantments on the object increases.
Enchanting items with an infusion altar follows the normal rules for enchantment as it applies to what enchants can combine with others.

You have discovered a way of improving golems in several minor, but significant ways.
Firstly, golems that go through this process are able to hold one additional upgrade, though they can never have more than two upgrades of a single type.
Secondly, they move slightly faster.
Thirdly, they have a slightly greater sight radius.
You are sure the malevolent intent in their eyes is just your imagination.

You have discovered the secret of creating golem workers. While the Iron Golem is impressive in its own way, it is very limited and uncontrollable. You have managed to solve both those problems.
Your golem workers have just enough will and self-awareness to make them useful tools, but not enough to render them uncontrollable.
You have also discovered how to make the Golemancer's Bell and Golem Animation Cores (see their respective research entries for more detail).

The golem you craft can be placed in the world, but will remain inactive until given an animation core.
The placement of the golem needs to be considered carefully - if you wish it to interact with inventories, you will need to place it by clicking (or shift-clicking) on the inventory on the side you wish it to interact with.
Most golems can operate in a range of 16 blocks around their home location.

This core is a specialized version of a decanting core, specifically designed to transport essentia.
Alchemy golems assigned to an alchemy furnace or alembic it will draw essentia from the entire stack of alembics and transport it to marked warded jars. It is not required to mark every single jar - the golem will automatically fill all jars adjacent to the marked jar and all other similarly connected jars.
Alchemy golems prioritize nearby jars first and will try to fill an entire jar before starting on a new one.

Most types of essentia are fairly volatile and care must be taken in its storage - that is why most thaumaturges use warded jars. You, however, are not most thaumaturges.
Using the wonderful new substance called void metal, you have discovered a way to greatly improve the storage of essentia. Essentia reservoirs are capable of storing up to 256 essentia in any combination.
Potentially disastrous mixing of the different essentia types is prevented by having dynamically reshaping compartments crafted from the new metal.

Picking up a reservoir while filled is, um, inadvisable.
You were so pleased with this discovery that you showed it off to some of your fellow thaumaturges. Strangely, most of them dived for cover even after you assured them the constant sound of metal under incredible stress is perfectly normal.

Your suspicions have been confirmed. This is not the home of the race you have come to call the Eldritch.

You have been able to decipher only a small number of the symbols, but you are sure this place is a trap - a place to test visitors and weed out the weak. For what purpose you are not sure.

For the first time you find yourself with a puzzle that you do not think can be solved.
This object contains pure primal aspects, but they possess properties unlike what you consider normal, everyday primal aspects. You have a few theories why this could be:
Firstly this "pearl" could be the remnants of primal matter that was created at the dawn of reality - elementary magic that existed before it mingled and merged into compound aspects.
Alternatively it could be primal matter from a place that does not conform to the known rules of

magic as you have come to understand it. You are not sure which explanation is more worrying.
Either way, the pearl is a potent artifact containing vast magical power and nearly unlimited potential.

The theory behind infusion crafting is simple - infuse a single object with essentia and the properties of other objects. There are limits however, but it seems with the discovery of the primordial pearl these limits are becoming less and less.
As an experiment you tried infusing the properties of completely different objects into the pearl with suprising success. The Primal Crusher is the first practical application of this discovery.
By combining a Shovel of the Earthmover and a Pickaxe of the Core with their void metal counterparts you created a

The Primal Crusher can mine through earth and stone with equal ease and does so in a 3x3 area. Like the Pickaxe of the Core it occasionally mines native clusters instead of raw ore.
It repairs itself over time, has high enchantability and serves as a relatively good weapon in a pinch.
Unfortunately it seems purely destructive in nature and has lost the construction and detection abilities of its parent tools.

The standard alchemical furnace is fairly slow and requires fuel to operate. While neither of those are particularly difficult obstacles to you, the fact that it is unable to process large sources of essentia is something that can not be ignored. Unfortunately the instability of the essentia slurry it creates makes it dangerous to gather too much of it in one location.
With the discovery of Primordial Pearls you have found a solution to that problem - The Advanced Alchemical Furnace.

metal and exposed to a primordial pearl's strange energies much more slurry can be processed at once and at much greater speeds. The pearl is not consumed during the crafting process.
Instead of fuel, heat is generated by ignis vis and instead of relying on heat alone perditio vis breaks down objects almost instantly. Lastly aqua vis keeps everything running smoothly and prevents the slurry from settling and causing problems.
The machine requires a considerable amount of heat to function and requires a constant supply of ignis vis even when not operating. Perditio and aqua vis is only used when the machine is smelting.

Sometimes, it's not enough to just kill something. Sure, slaying a single monster may be rather cathartic, but imagine just mowing down a crowd of the obnoxious little jerks.
To that end, you've discovered a way to recreate the monster spawners found in the ancient ruins. Unlike the original monster spawners, the Wrath Cage responds to redstone controls instead of the presence of human beings and can run much faster than the ancient devices.

However, you haven't been able to duplicate the original method of infinite creation. For every creature spawned, the Wrath Cage requires a bit of essentia piped into its internal reserves. The device will accept different types of essentia depending on the creature it is attuned to. Alternatively, piping Ira into the cage can serve as a fuel. The cage can also accept Desidia for some reason.
Right-clicking the Wrath Cage with a Diabolist Fork will cycle the cage between the different fuel types, changing which essentia it applies suction to.

To attune a wrath cage to a specific creature, right click on it with an imprinted crystal. Slaying a compatible creature with a Diabolist Fork while carrying a blank imprinting crystal will attune the crystal to that monster.
