So you want to use a magical spell?
If Magic then consider this quick Evocation reminder:
1. Determine the effect.
2. Describe the effect as a basic action: attack, block,
maneuver, or counterspell.
3. Decide how many shifts of power you will use.
4. Roll Discipline with a difficulty equal to the desired
power.
5. Take Mental stress based on power of spell.  (Power = Discipline = 1 stress)
6. Suffer backlash or fallout, if applicable.
