Spells
Every spell in the game data, drawn stroke by stroke for each thumb, with its lore from the Story Bible.
Assets/StreamingAssets/Data/Spells.Composite spells
Two learned spells drawn as one stroke. See Combos and Composite Spells for every chain.
In the Codex, not in the game data yet
37 spells are described in the Codex but have no file in Data/Spells, so they have no strokes to draw. Each gets its strokes here as soon as its data file lands.

The Facets get one spell in every role, since each of their spells is hard to draw. The Evane cover every role between their five factions, so an…
Attack
Five ways to hurt: a quick hit (Gale), a heavy hit (Coil), several small hits (Squall), damage over time (Wither) and a delayed blow (Toll). Tally…
Defence
Three answers to an incoming hit: absorb some of it (Brace), absorb more of it (Facet Seal), or dodge it (Drift). Facet Seal is unchanged from the…
