Tradition Category Definitions:
- Force, Active projection; the practitioner extends energy outward to produce an effect at range. Pattern Fatigue applies on second use in scene. Backlash from critical failure is external (effect misfires outward).
- Resonance, Perceptual attunement and environmental influence; the practitioner reads and responds to conditions rather than imposing on them. Pattern Fatigue applies; Resonance practitioners manage fatigue through the Practiced Channel perk (AX.GAN.08.01).
- Form, Material pattern-imposition; the practitioner imposes a shape or structure on matter. Pattern Fatigue applies; Form tradition Backlash tends to be internal (pattern-fracture affects the practitioner).
