“Magic is not simply power. It is knowledge. And knowledge has a price.”
Arkanum is an extensive magic system focused on research, discovery, progression, and experimentation.
Instead of gaining access to powerful magic immediately, you must first discover and understand the magical properties of the world.
Analyze items, blocks, and creatures, discover new aspects, conduct research, and gradually unlock deeper levels of arcane knowledge.
Your journey begins with a simple magical tool and eventually leads to powerful spells, advanced wands, rituals, infusions, magical equipment, and the secrets of an entirely new dimension.
The heart of Arkanum is the Arcanum Grimoire.
It contains your magical progression and discoveries:
Many parts of the Grimoire are hidden at first.
Only through research and experimentation will you uncover new branches of arcane knowledge.
Use the Arcane Analyzer to investigate the magical properties of the world.
Analyze things such as:
Through analysis you can discover different magical aspects.
Arkanum currently features 41 different aspects, including:
🔥 Fire · ❄️ Ice · 🌊 Water · 🌪️ Air · 🌱 Nature · ⚡ Energy · 💀 Death · 👻 Spirit · ❤️ Life · 🌑 Darkness · ☀️ Light · 🌀 Space · ⏳ Time · 🕳️ Void · ⭐ Astral · ✨ Magic
and many more.
Once an item has been analyzed, its discovered aspects can also be displayed directly in its tooltip.
Aspects can be studied and combined to discover new magical connections.
Through experimentation, you can uncover relationships between different aspects and use your discoveries to unlock new research.
As you progress, the required combinations become increasingly complex.
Arkanum features an extensive spell system with over 100 spell definitions, including basic and advanced spells as well as powerful combinations.
Examples include:
Spells can have different levels, mana costs, ranges, cooldowns, and instability values.
Many spells can also be upgraded and improved as you progress through your research.
Wands are more than simple tools.
Depending on the wand, different properties can be affected:
You can also customize your wands using wand cores and upgrades.
Your progression can take you from a simple Wooden Wand through increasingly powerful magical materials all the way to the mighty Archmage Wand.
Wand cores give your magic additional properties.
Examples include:
Wands can also be upgraded with different enhancements:
Capacity · Regeneration · Power · Range
This allows you to create a wand that fits your own playstyle.
Magic isn't limited to spells.
With the Alchemy Cauldron, you can break down items and extract their magical properties into Essentia.
Essentia can then be stored and processed for use in other magical systems.
Arkanum includes numerous alchemical recipes for things such as:
Alchemy therefore becomes an important part of the magical progression system.
The Infusion Altar allows you to create powerful magical items and materials.
Infusions require a combination of:
The more powerful the infusion, the more important stability and preparation become.
Rituals are another way to manipulate arcane energy.
Construct a ritual circle, place the required components, and channel mana into the ritual.
Rituals can be used to create special items, summon entities, trigger magical events, and perform powerful transformations.
They are deliberately more complex than ordinary crafting recipes and are designed to feel like actual magical ceremonies.
Who needs Elytra?
Arkanum introduces several magical flying brooms.
From simple brooms to powerful Aether Brooms, you can craft different magical forms of transportation.
As the broom tier increases, so do properties such as:
You can also use Broom Oil to restore your remaining flight time while flying.
The world of Minecraft is expanded with numerous magical resources.
These include materials such as:
These materials can be used to create:
⚔️ Weapons
⛏️ Tools
🛡️ Armor
💎 Blocks
🔮 Magical components
Arkanum features multiple complete sets of magical armor.
As your research progresses, you can move from simple magical equipment to increasingly powerful gear, eventually reaching Archmage-level equipment.
Some armor sets also provide additional set bonuses when the complete set is equipped.
Magic isn't only about destruction.
With the right rituals, you can create magical golems.
The Sorting Golem can automatically organize items into nearby chests and remember where specific items should be stored.
The Guardian Golem, on the other hand, serves as a powerful companion that protects its owner from hostile creatures.
Eventually, the Overworld won't be enough.
Through your research into the Arcanum, you can gain access to an entirely new magical dimension.
There you may encounter:
A Rune Compass can help you locate the mysterious structures hidden throughout this dimension.
The magical structures of Arkanum are not without danger.
Powerful guardians may be hidden within ancient structures and protected by magical seals.
Among the dangers you may encounter are:
These enemies feature their own mechanics and can drop rare materials and powerful relics.
Arkanum isn't just a magic system.
Throughout the world, you can discover lost pages and fragments of lore.
They gradually reveal the story behind:
Not every secret is meant to be understood immediately.
Powerful magic comes with consequences.
Many magical actions generate Magical Instability.
The stronger your magic becomes, the more important it is to keep your arcane energies under control.
Stability Crystals and other magical systems can help you maintain control over powerful experiments, infusions, and rituals.
