Magic costs sparks to cast and require the Slaver to have skill levels in Magic to cast. Some effects last for a day and can't be recast during the day; this applies to all the spells but Delikacia, Cruciato and Adverto Servili. (Adverto Servili is permanent and can never be recast on the same slave, while Delikacia and Cruciato can be cast without a set limit per day.)
Jack HF: Additionally, Delikacia and Cruciato have some effects that only apply to the first cast of the day, such as improving your magic level. Aside from this restriction, casting any spell increases your magic level, but for the most part only on a successful cast. Exception: successful Auspex can only take you to up to Apprentice (D rank).
This means any mundane character must buy wizard robes in order to train magic skill. (And you should, because not having magic skill in the Eternal Rome is almost like not knowing how to use a debit card: Embarrassing.)
