Evocation — Temperature

Temperature is the Evocation Method concerned with transferring heat through air. Kampanni do not create fire — they move heat. Temperature evocation is slower than Lightning, but harder to ignore.

Threads (Temperature)

• Heat — raises temperature in an area or object.
• Chill — draws heat away, stiffening materials and bodies.
• Thermal Shock — forces a sudden, extreme swing, stressing or shattering what it touches.

Base Ka Cost (Temperature)

Intensity	Effect	Base Ka
Mild shift	Warm a room, take the chill off, cool a drink	1
Noticeable shift	Uncomfortably hot or cold; wilts or frosts minor plants	2
Severe shift	Scalding or freezing to the touch; risks injury on contact	4
Extreme shift (Thermal Shock)	Combustion-level heat or flash-freezing; lethal on prolonged exposure	7

Area

Area	Ka Modifier	TD Modifier
Single object or point	+0	+0
Person-sized	+1	+1
Room-sized	+3	+3
Structure-wide	+6	+6

Duration

Duration	Modifier
Momentary	+0
One scene	+2 Ka
Sustained (active Channeling)	Ka paid per interval
Persistent	Enchanting required

Channeling Difficulty (Temperature)

Modifiers: - Object or material target: +0 - Living target: +2 - Rapid swing (Thermal Shock) rather than gradual shift: +2 - Countering an existing extreme temperature: +2

Force and Impact

Severe or extreme shifts applied directly to a target — scalding, freezing, or Thermal Shock used to injure or shatter — follow Evocation#Ka and Force. Ambient warming or cooling never requires an Impact roll.

Burn

Burn may be taken to: - push a shift one intensity tier higher than the Ka paid for - sustain an extreme temperature against environmental resistance - trigger Thermal Shock instantly instead of building gradually

Design Notes

• Temperature rewards patience — gradual shifts are cheap, sudden extremes are not.
• Thermal Shock is the only Thread that behaves like a weapon; Heat and Chill are almost always environmental or utility.
