Spells are the bread and butter of The Reincarnation. They are used for a variety of purposes: summoning units, casting offensive and defensive enchantments both in battle and out of battle, allocation of resources, and more. Each color can learn their own Simple, Average, Complex and Ultimate spells. They can learn their own adjacent color's Simple, Average, and Complex spells, and finally can learn their opposite color's Simple and Average spells. Phantasm is the exception: they can learn every color's Simple, Average, and Complex spells, so their spell level is the highest of all the colors. The spells in the spellbook are seen as one of mages basic resource, because the amount of spells that you have, determines your basic spell level (Gods and Skills can add some extra spell level). Once acquired, you'll never lose the spell and never lower basic spell level, as long as you keep your mage alive.

Every color's Simple, Average, Complex spells are available on the Black Market under Exotic Mageware. This is one of two places Ancient spells can be learned; the other method is from using specific Unique items that have a fixed percentage chance of allowing your mage to learn an Ancient spell. Bidding on the spells on the Black Market is a guaranteed way to learn the spell if you have the highest bid, while the Unique Items carry a risk of destroying your entire mana reserve.

Casting the spells of adjacent colors carries a risk of failure, depending on the complexity of the spell, so the turns and mana required for the spell will be consumed with no benefit. The risk of failure increases with the complexity of the spell. Opposite color casting carries an even greater risk of failure. Failure rate can be reduced by the Phantasm average spell Concentration, a spell which also carries the benefits of reducing research time for spells and increasing summoning rates on spells.
