Cabalist/Prealpha

From Basin Wiki

This very early information is from the pre-alpha of Hellgate London and archived only if any information archaeologists are interested. Most of it is inaccurate by now. It will not be maintained.

Cabalist skills and spells fall into the following three schools.

Mastery

These spells and skills allow the Cabalist to capture, control, and even train the minions of Hell. Properly invoked, these powers can be used to summon demons from the nether world and compel them to fight against their kindred.
