• Magic in Call of Cthulhu is not your run-of-the-mill epic fantasy magic.
• It is not a tool; it is reality, with great and usually irreversible consequences on the minds of the hapless men and women who are stupid enough to use it.
• The book starts by discussing magic’s principles, as well as star alignment. As an example, divination, prophecy and communication spells will work better on Wednesdays, and even more so if it is a New moon.
• Casting a spell is not a scientific experiment which, all things considered, will always produce the same results.
• Spells leave magical residue, usually an unwanted event outside of the spell’s effect. Too much spellcasting in the same place however can stretch the boundaries of reality, potentially filling these places with magical powers, enhancing future spells or calling forth creatures from beyond
