Locus
Possessed of powerful Magics, the Locus is a Thanomancer of unusual potency for one of their experience. However, this power comes at a price, for they are good at little else. If they survive they can become seasoned into an impressive competance, but thats "if".
A Locus is fun to play because they are able to work powerful and flexible Magic.

Thanomancer
Thanomancers use the Thanomancy variant of Adeptology.
Thanomancers are powerful naturally occuring Arcane Magic Users, that dont require any training to use their abilities and are able to work their will upon most situations. Thanomancers drain the life forces of other living things to fuel their Magic, but on the plus side dont suffer Long Term Endurance loss from using their Magic (unlike Adepts).
Thanomancers may not be appropriate to all settings or campaigns, or even when they exist they may not be suitable as Player Characters in some GM's games due to their grim means to power. However, in some games with thicker skinned players they can be very interesting additions to an adventuring group. They definitely introduce an interesting dynamic.
