Thorns of the Lotus introduces the possibility to obtain bonus magic points when casting a spell (by group casting, ritual, sacrifice, favorable time...). What can these points be used for?
-can they be spent to receive an extra die on the Sorcery check, or even several?
-do they count toward the power of the spell, e.g. for the magic attribute based damage of a blast?
-can they be used to pay a schtick cost such as Summoning or Commanding by the hour in the Summoning schtick or steal chi in Fertility?
-can they be used towards the 20 magic points needed to make a spell permanent? I would like an official ruling on this one as I am sure my magic-using player will try it.
