22.20 Cornelius, the god of magic.
The realm of magic, the realm of convenience and intellect, makes
existence effortless, and so superior wits, great cunning, imagination and
brute power are vital to those of worth, whether they use the powers of
the realm or let it shine through their blades -- excellence is innate.
The God of Magic cares not for mortal fragility, and spurns the sympathy
and attention of the ignorant. He, more than any other god, has been known
to excel in the arts of indulgence, subterfuge and madness: his temples
run an infinite supply of wine and gastronomic delights, the blood and
flesh of enemies, and they never lack the constant entertainment provided
by the demeaning subjugation and enslavement of all his opposers.
