Does a thematic ritualist like a diabolist just use a foci for diabolism or do they have to take foci for each individual type of diabolical thaumaturgy? In other words would I have a foci of diabolism control +1, or would I have to take diabolsm wards control +1, and redo that for each of the diabolism abilities?

Can a ritualist create an enchanted object that has an evocation effect within their theme? For example in the Baltimore chapter there is a character with ritual aquamancy, could he create a enchanted object with a water magic evocation?

I have a few questions about the lesser magic users. First off you get two focus item slots or four enchanted item slots when you take channelling, but you create these item with thaumaturgy. So can you have some one else create items to fill these slots, or is there a special rule that allows a pure evoker still create focus objects for evocation even though they are created with thaumaturgy?

If it is possible to have item slots that power items that other people have created would it be appropriate to have a minor talent that gives you item slots for this purpose? For example a -1 refresh power taht gives two enchanted item slots(you aren't as efficiant as a true spellcaster) which would automatically upgrade into a full strength refinement if you gain a spellcasting power. Similar to the way the mana static power goes into the spellcasting ability.

And finally what do you think of having a ritualist gain the ability to use thaumaturgy at evocation spead, or theme of magic, instead of elemental magic if they gain channeling? For example a ward weaver gains access to defensive spells from all elements instead of full access to one element, or a diviner gains evocation speed divination(like that all encompassing awareness block in the book).

A while back iread that there would be rules for familiars but I can't seam to find them. Has someone else found them, and if they have where are they?

I just read the spoiler about the white council allies and had a question about the venatori, it says that the venatori are capable of basic occult countermeasures but they lack powerfull spellcasters. Does this mean that they only have minor talents? What is the cutoff for a powerfull spellcaster, is it sorceror or focussed practitioner?
