I did this because the nature of the Sages is more hermetic (Someone
says "shaman"
and I see a guy covered with feathers :) ). There are 7 types of Lumini,
each of
the 6 first ones is opposed to other, and the 7th is opposed to all
other 6 (that
diagram in the beginning of the file.). Sages cast spells normally and
summon a
Luminus using Conjuring+Affinity of the desired type. Max skill is equal
to
Magic/2. Lumini don't like when you deal with their mortal enemies, so
they won't
be kind on the sage if he does...
