==[anchor:Ab[anchor:Ability]Faerie Magic as an Ability

In the core ArM5 rules, Faerie Magic is a [[Virtues and Flaws|Virtue]], not an [[Ability]].  The Faerie Magic Ability appearing on the [[House Merinita]] [[Template]] on page 27 is a mistake and is listed in the [[ArM5#Errata|ArM5 Errata]].  If you are using the core rules only (not the advanced [[House Merinita]] rules from [[HoHMC]]), substitute another Ability of your choice for "Faerie Magic" on that character [[Template]].

In [[HoHMC]], the Faerie Magic [[Mystery Virtue]] grants an [[Arcane Ability]] that is also called Faerie Magic.  This Ability represents the magus's ability to draw on esoteric faerie mysticism (including faerie symbolism) and use it in his or her magic.  The Faerie Magic Ability can substitute for [[Magic Theory]] in some circumstances, and complements it in others.  See [[HoHMC]], page 88, for the exact rules.
