A *Shape and Material Bonus* is a bonus represnting the magical resonance between the shape or material being used and its intended magical function. S&M bonuses are applied in the manufacture of [[Enchanted Items]], and in [[Talisman]] attunement.

S&M bonuses can be utilized through various other non-core means. These include the [[Potent Magic]] virtue.

It is well-established in canon that the core [[ArM5]] list is not exhaustive, as it is augmented by various S&M provided in the supplements. It stands to reason that these lists are not exhaustive either, so the [[Storyguide|storyguide]] should feel free to invent and introduce his own S&M to the game. 

It is possible, however, that certain S&M bonuses are known only to some magi. This is particularly relevant for those materials not prevalent throughout Mythic Europe (such as local types of trees) or simply rare ones (such as a dragon's egg). Counterintuitive correspondences might also fall under this category. The extent to which magi are aware of specific S&M correspondences is up to the [[Troupe|troupe]] to decide.

It is usually assumed that all magi know the correspondences listed in [[ArM5]], and probably all other official correspondences. Certain troupes allow the player to come up with other S&M bonuses and apply them on-the-spot, while others do not allow such at all or only allow the development of new S&M bonuses through [[Vulgar Alchemy]].
