About this project

What does Tainted Magic add?

Thaumonomicon / Obscura / A Disturbing Find

"While you were exploring the world and gathering magical knowledge, you came across something rather disturbing: a blood-stained page that seems to be from a Thaumonomicon. From your understanding, it speaks of dark magic.
Even though the page is hardly legible, you are filled with a strange feeling as you attempt to read the spidery script. It feels almost like a headache... but not quite. The darkness intrigues you, even though it ensues a dangerous path. Perhaps you will make it your goal to one day understand this strange magic. After all, the thought of an adventure into the unknown is exciting."

Tainted Magic is an addon to Thaumcraft 4 (1.7.10) which focuses on the dark side of Thaumcraft. Tainted Magic adds many useful items and gear for both early and endgame Thaumaturges. This addon also brings something others do not... a great endgame set of gear and foci, which sets new goals for even the most experienced Thaumaturges.
