Mage of Space: One who Understands with Space or Understands Space

Mages will uniquely experience their Aspect, both good and bad. As a result, they gain a unique understanding of what their Aspect is or does. Their challenge is to become open to new insight or different perspectives than their own.

A Mage of Space would know all about the origins of things and how they change, because they’ve experienced it for themselves. They would know all the technical theory behind any kind of art, because they learned from their own failure. Their 6th sense like intuition for when things go wrong would be sharpened by all the random things that seem to break or go wrong around them. They may be very physically clumsy and trip over things a lot from their impatient rushing. This might give them amazing depth perception. They suffer from change, randomness and variation.

They might have too many things happening or going on around them, no peace or stability. They could have a passion for fashion, and know all things fashion and suffer from it, pain is beauty after all. They might be agoraphobic or claustrophobic, suffer from loneliness or being overcrowded, or they might just be allergic to frogs. They’re not likely to have a lot of close personal relationships, and if you want to get really dark you can wonder what “suffering from an unwanted creation” means if your character is female. But they would also know things about the world around them and day to day life.

They have all the experience for life and how to live. Their lives are fully lived and full of experience and there’s never a dull moment for them. They may have knowledge from traditional sources as well like books or school but are generally a hands on, do it yourself, fiddle with things kind of learner. For example, their toaster randomly broke, so they take it apart piece by piece, puzzle out what’s wrong and put it back together good as new, only to have it break again and so they fix it again. Eventually, they know everything there is to know about toasters and can give all kinds of advice when random things stop working.
