Editing Chronomancy

{{stub}}

'''Chronomancy''', in real world occultism, refers to [[divination]] specifically orientated around locating the best and worst times to do... well, pretty much anything. In actual fantasy settings, it refers to a subschool of [[magic]] focused on manipulating time in various ways. Whilst this is mostly a [[/v/]] phenomena, due to the way players can really, ''realy'' fuck over a DM by exploiting this in gamebreaking ways on the tabletop, there are tabletop settings where it makes an appearance.

==Anima==
Arcane Exxet, the magic and supernatural sourcebook for Anima: Beyond Fantasy, features Time magic as an available subschool.

==Dungeons & Dragons==
Time magic has made rare and sporadic appearances through the history of [[Dungeons & Dragons]]. It first appeared in the form of an NPC class for [[Advanced Dungeons & Dragons]] 1st edition called the [[Doctor Who|Time Lord]]. Then 2nd edition debuted a [[splatbook]] called "Chronomancer", which gave players the ability to play a [[Wizard]] specialist focused on time manipulating magic. After this, time control slipped out of players' hands until [[Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition]], where the "Chronurgist" is one of the [[Wizard]] subclasses based on [[Dunamancy]], focusing specifically on its time-manipulating aspects.

==Rifts==
Worldbook 3: England for [[Rifts]] features both Temporal Mage and Temporal Knight character classes.

==Warhammer 40K==
[[Necron]] [[Cryptek]]s have a speciality called the Chronomancer, who uses Necron hyperscience to manipulate time.

==White Wolf==
In both [[Mage: The Ascension]] and [[Mage: The Awakening]], Time is one of the ten "elements" from which magic can be made.

The rare and much maligned True Brujah bloodline from [[Vampire: The Masquerade]] can control time with the Temporis Discipline.

Wraiths may gain some control over the passage of time using the Pandemonium Arcanos in [[Wraith: The Oblivion]].

Characters in [[Changeling: The Dreaming]] can control time using the Chronos Art.
