Candles
To use a magic candle, first find a clear, still area to avoid extinguishing the flame. Light the candle and focus on your desired outcome, visualizing the effect taking hold. Place the candle on a stable surface for area-of-effect spells, or waft the smoke towards your target for targeted effects. Remember, once the flame is extinguished, the magic dissipates and the candle is usually used up. So take a deep breath, focus your intent, and let the candle’s magic work its wonder!

Dusts
Using magic dust requires a sprinkle of finesse. Depending on the effect, you’ll need to target yourself, the ground, or throw it at an enemy. A pinch is usually enough, but be mindful – some dust has limited uses per vial. Hold your breath to avoid inhaling the magical powder, then flick the dust with a practiced flick of the wrist, hoping it does its job before dissipating into the air.

Incense
To utilize magic incense, find a well-ventilated space and light the tip of the stick. Let the smoke curl gently upwards. For personal effects, stand in the wispy fumes and focus on your desired outcome. To blanket an area, like with incense of healing, let the smoke fill the room, ensuring everyone who needs the effect is within its range. Remember, some incense requires multiple sticks per use, so manage your supply wisely. Breathe deeply and let the fragrant smoke carry your intent, creating the magical atmosphere you desire.pen_sparktunesharemore_vert

Stones
Utilizing a magic stone can be as simple as holding it or require focused channeling. For activation stones like the Stone of Tongues, simply hold the stone and concentrate on the language you wish to understand or speak. For elemental Stones of Might, grip the stone and envision the desired power, like a surge of fire or a protective earthen shield. Teleportation stones demand focus and a command word while visualizing your destination. Remember, some stones recharge daily, while others offer continuous use, so factor that in when wielding their magic.

Ointments
Applying a magic ointment requires focus and a steady hand. First, ensure the targeted area is clean and dry. Depending on the effect, you’ll want to dab a thin layer on your exposed skin, rub it onto specific areas like boots, or even coat your gills (if using Gills of the Sea Ointment!). Remember, a little goes a long way, so use a sparing amount to activate the magic. Be mindful of the number of uses each vial holds, and apply with purpose for the desired effect to take hold, be it swift movement, fiery resistance, or underwater breathing.
