If the player has chosen to learn magic, they should note how many levels of Magery they wish to have and which Discipline they want. Remember that the number of Path Skills is limited to the character's Magery +1.
Path Skills cost 8 CP for the first Rank, but afterward are 3 CP per Rank, just like Combat Skills. Focal Skills are bought as Trade Skills, including the initial cost.
