In the TKSB on page 47 under the list of spells that TK would have
similar with the other source books. It states any Demon based
version of these spells like "haste" with an AK of Folk would use
Entity instead. This is based on demon society and not really
fitting into the normal world and such.
So could you modify a TK spell with an AK of Entity like "Pop" pg 52
to folk so a human mage could cast it? I think you can since they
are both part of Living Forces.
Thanks in advance. And have a happy holiday.
