Read the Grimoire. Physical Adepts can Initiate, thereby increasing
their Magic Rating, thus increasing the point pool they use to buy
abilities.

Mental drain from a spell cast at a force higher than the mage's Magic
Rating is shifted to the physical track.

Karma. Otherwise, no.
Kelwyn> Can a mages MR be increased above 6?
Via Initation.
Kelwyn> Can essence ever be increased?
No.
