More properly, lowmagic is 'natural magic' which involves the study of auras and energies that make up life. It is a much more intuitive form of magic when considered next to its intellectual cousin, highmagic. Many useful manipulations of the aura can be gained through studying this branch of magic, and is a prerequisite to learning the Nature, Herbs or Poisons skill.
