Non-spell cards are not cast, but simply played from your hand. They can not be placed in your Mana pool, and are not discarded but when used (or leave play) are sent to the Aether. They have a different back from Spell cards that identify their type when face down. | Non-spell cards are not cast, but simply played from your hand.

* **__Celestial__**: The celestial card allows your Wizard to summon a celestial event, when the planets properly align (when you get the card and choose to use it).

* **__Orbital__**: These are powerful items that enhance your Wizards power. In the base game they are all Wizard Hats, and when you draw one you place it into an Adjacent spot next to your tower (this is not casting, as the orbital is not a spell card). Orbital card effects are not directed as a normal card, but are triggered at the start of each of your casting phases. A legal deck must contain exactly four Orbital cards at the start of play. | * **__Orbital__**: These are powerful items that enhance your Wizards power.

=== Draft === | === Draft === |
| |
| When you draft, you draw cards from your deck into your hand or mana pool (as directed by the magic or game rule). Non-spell cards (celestial or orbital) are ignored when drawn and placed down in front of you - these do no count as your hand, but instead are played at the start of your movement phase one at a time. |

=== Draw === | === Draw === |
| |
| Draw and draft are the same, but in general Draw specifically means take from your deck into your hand. Follow the same rules as draft, and place non-spell cards face down before you and don't count them towards your draw total. |
