Thanks! I've got more where that came from, but I won't try and crowd out everyone else.

Vitalis the arcane discipline of Vitalis has been around in some form or another since time immemorable, with some scholars theorizing the elder arthropods had knowledge of this art. most ancient cultures had less understanding of the actual mechanism of vitalistic magic but had discovered methods of harnessing it in a limited form, from the magic of giants to the ancient healers of the sunlit isles. Without true understanding of the principles of Vitalis the powers were more limited. Now greater understanding of the nature of life it is considered by some a branch of alchemy Vitalis focuses on living things. Early vitalis magic often used herbs and minerals to effect change on an organism and later the use of bound spirits was used. It wasnt until applications of Morveks theories that Vitalis magic reached a higher potential, it allowed more control of Vital spirits, spiritual tools that can dwell in living things, these vital spirits, formerly mindless, could be used in a variety of effects such as healing and biological metamorphosis, it could even be used to create new species of animals...and people...it could even raise the dead though unless the person had died recently they usually came back without much humanity left and while the bones of the ancient dead could be animated, they possessed no mind.
The Study of vitalism scared many people for a long time, the potential for abuse (and sometimes it was abused) The fear of the monsters men could create. Eventually many nations became more accepting of the practice.
It was meant like some kind of "end of days" thing common in mythology. if it happens it probably doesnt happen for a long long time.
