The Gate Of Ivory	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })In the world of Ivory, created by Doris Egan, magic is real. It isn't real in any of the other planets humanity has colonized, but on Ivory, sorcery works. On that world, Theodora of Pyrene makes her life as a fortune-teller. A former scholar, Theodora made a mistake which resulted in her missing her trip back home, and now works in the market-place. Then, Ran of Cormallen showed up and offered her a job, reading the cards for him. From there, Theodora becomes enveloped in the politics of Ivory, a world where assassination is an art, an art reserved for the families with enough money to pay to make it an artform instead of a crime. All Theodora wants is to go home, but once she becomes entangled with Ran, she has become a pawn in a fight for the future of Ivory, and where they stand in the galaxy.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

The Gate Of Ivory / int_14a8974a	type	Love Potion
The Gate Of Ivory / int_14a8974a	comment	Love Potion: It's specifically noted that sorcery cannot create love, only create its symptoms. Those aware that they are being influenced by a love potion know that their accelerated heartbeat and increased temperature are only symptoms. Ran specifically teaches Theodora how to interpret the symptoms in the first book because he's worried she might be under such a spell. In a later book in the series, Theodora accidentally ignores the effect of a love spell because she assumes the increased heartrate and dryness of mouth around her captor are due to her being kidnapped.

The Gate Of Ivory / int_a7b324e	type	Handicapped Badass
The Gate Of Ivory / int_a7b324e	comment	Handicapped Badass: Eln Cormallon, who was born without sorcerous abilities in a family whose business is sorcery, then was left unable to walk as a youngster. He compensated by studying sorcery more deeply and learning more about the theory of it than any of its practitioners have done, to the point of being supremely dangerous when involved in a sorcerer's duel.
