I know all about "Mage the Awakening" at least most of it anyways...They're basically the most powerful class in world of darkness, but a paradox really gives them the disadvantage. Vampires can use their powers, and so can werewolves...Even though a mage could easily obliterate any of them, if they mess up it could end disastrous.
My favorite spell is call lightening. Simply because you can cast it anytime during a scene outdoor in a rainstorm without it being vulgar. There are minor spells that are really cool as well...
Gnosis level 2 powers: control fire, lightning, water. You can pull out electricity from an electrical socket and shock people with it, or make a gas stove explode when someone turns it on.
Other types of spells those are just "Obrimos" or - Force spells...Any mage can learn any type of spell but specifically different mages are better at different things.
Obrimos: Forces/Prime - Super Hero/Villain mages
Mastigos: Mind/Space - These ones I don't know much about, but their powers...Mind, you could levitate or mind probe someone... Mind tricks, ect. Space, you can manipulate structure... a room 10x15 is now 30x45. You can open pocket dimensions, worm holes, basically, you can throw someone into another dimension if you wanted to
Moros: Matter/Death - Necromancer mages - matter being that turning a squirt gun into a .50 cal, or bringing the dead to life.
Thyrsus: Life/Spirit - Pretty much druids...many of them live away from civilization. Witch Doctors, Voodoo Priests, or sometimes Doctors. Life, healing. Spirit; it's very powerful, the spirit is what makes us do the things we do...say if you feel angry, you can feel it, but if your spirit is calm you wouldn't be able to attack. You can also talk to trees, and plants...not also but human emotions you can communicate with...same with mind I suppose, but this you're pretty much just reading their feelings, not what they're thinking.
Arcanthus: Time/Fate - Not to sure about Arcanthus, didn't read much about them...but I know they are one of the most powerful mages...Time is one of the best things to have on your side, see the future, see someone else's future, alter the future. Fate; basically something bound to happen...basically if you put a curse on someone saying, "You will get a lethal wound." It's not guarenteed to happen but say if you get stabbed with a dagger in the arm, it might have struck a vein, or perhaps the dagger was rusted and you have that flowing through your blood.
Yes, I answered this to the best of my knowledge without using the books.
also yes mages can have pets, what not...Join specific orders to gain beneficial powers, and I believe that Arcanthus need a silver wand in order to spell cast.
There's a whole lot more stuff...
Parodoxes
Antagonists
Gnosis
Rotes
Vulgar Spells
The Nimbus
Mage Orders
and Much more...
