On this site there are a number of different spell types with some being only usable to a select few classes, these include Offensive, Defensive, Healing, Supplementary, Self-buff and Other-buff.

Simple things to remember, Offensive spells deal a ranks worth of the rank of the spell, Defensive spells can endure a rank highers worth of damage, healing can be used to heal only other individuals, Supplementary consists of spells that don't fall into any of these categories, Self-buff is a single stat boost modifier which can only be cast if you have the correct class for that stat, Other-buff meanwhile allows the character to buff anyone with a predetermined stat within the description of the spell save for themselves. Other details found in the regulation include the various elements available to a user and their counters, spell ranges, sustain and cool-down information, speed, along with a reminder to need to have a motion of some sort to cast a spell.

The Blackwood bank meanwhile is far more sinister allowing the user to take out a loan for the character provided they are C-rank or higher, this comes at a cost with them needing to pay back the loan in full plus 50% tax within four weeks otherwise, the bank will both maim and individual before taking something of the equivalent value it could be anything from an item to a companion or even more body parts to compensate. If the loan isn't paid off two weeks post that initial maiming then the character will be hunted down and killed.

The money gained from either bank can not be used together i.e have money transferred from another individual to pay off another person's loan or have money loaned transferred to another individual.
