Thaumonomicon Entry[edit]

"To infuse a living creature would be an unprecedented feat: thaumaturgic texts are filled with cautionary tales of grotesque deformities as the creature's body rejects the foreign magic. Your curative vats may finally allow this procedure to succeed by suspending the organism's vital functions while the infusion is applied.

You must first install a modified runic matrix atop the vat. This is more difficult than it sounds, as attempting to infuse a runic matrix produces considerable magical feedback between the two matrices. The prudent thaumaturge would ensure that her altar is well-prepared.

Once the infusion vat has been set up, its operation is almost identical to the standard infusion altar, although essentia must be piped in directly.

The process is somewhat riskier than infusing inanimate matter, however. In addition to the usual effects, accumulated instability will damage the subject. Worse, the process cannot be aborted; it will end in either success or death.

Less hardy creatures may not survive complex infusions without outside help. Your experiments have shown that providing a combination of Aqua, Ordo, and Terra centivis can slow the rate of injury.

The infusion vat has a few limitations. Chief among them is the fact that humans (and other sentient beings) cannot be infused, as the human soul actively interferes with the addition of magical energy. Likewise, creatures of an already magical nature such as undead and golems will not be affected.

Also, while a given creature can have any number of general infusions, it may possess only one species-specific infusion.

Unfortunately, infused creatures do not pass on their infusions to offspring.

Incarnation Unlocked:
Your incarnation procedure can clone infused creatures. This requires additional essentia; you will need to supply the sum of every aspect from each infusion that the creature was subjected to.

Curiously, the blood sample provides such a complete pattern for the developing organism that no instability is generated and no physical objects are required, making cloning a very efficient way of propagating your creations."
