Wizards, like many, rely on furry friends to help us make it through our daily lives. As a wizard at the School of Sorcery, summon the powers of Orinitin, Sloankai, and Cranaj as you attempt to gain friends and influence at the school. Along with these pets come 5 new cards with unique powers. The School of Sorcery Pet Pack includes 1 instruction card, 3 pet cards, and 5 new sorcery cards. The pet cards introduce a new mechanic into the game, while the 5 new sorcery cards introduce new powers to the normal game. To use the pet cards, place them face-up in the supply. If you play the "cast no crystals" card, you send a crystal to one of the pets. If both players have a crystal on the pet card, the crystals are removed. If only one player has a crystal on a pet card, that player befriends the pet and may use the pet's power once per round. Orinitin allows you take a crystal anytime your opponent wins a card. With Sloankai, your score is increased by 1 for each crystal. Cranaj allows you to adjust a die up or down 1 pip. To use the new sorcery cards, simply shuffle them into the deck and play as normal. The three immediate use cards are the Slingshot, Icarus Stone, and the Flaming Sword. With the Slingshot, you remove all crystals from one location (if you have fewer VPs). The Icarus Stone allows you to remove 1 crystal from any location. After getting the Flaming Sword, you flip the top card in the deck and use its power (but only if it is a one-time use card). The two one-time use cards include the Curse and the Cloak. The Curse allows you to turn an opponent die to any result and the Cloak allows you to remove an opponent crystal from the portal. -description from designer
