	Fate is believed to be controlled by the [[Titan]]s. Fate is planned up to a point, but every once in a while, there comes a very important turn where something must be decided, such as when Parson needed to decide whether or not to break the laws of the [[Magic Kingdom]] and enter an enemy portal without permission. Once said decision has been made, the Titans continue planning out their story from there.		Fate is believed to be controlled by the [[Titan]]s.

-	Predictamancy works by peering into the Titans' great plan or anything else that has similarly already been decided. Fate enforces itself like a railroading or even cheating [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamemaster game master] by manipulating behind the scenes mechanics. It can do so via [[Luckamancy]], the design of a newly [[pop]]ped unit and has even been shown to be capable of tampering with Parson's [[Mathamancy Bracer]]. It likely nudges units into making certain decisions through [[intuition]] as well. With a great deal of difficulty, it is indeed possible to defeat ~~fate~~. The easiest way is by cheating it through [[Carnymancy]]. This results in a conflict between the two. For example, when Parson was trying to determine the odds of successfully casting a Carnymancy [[scroll]], Fate made his bracer ~~flash a~~ [[zero]] to dissuade him from trying, but Carnymancy allowed the true number to appear for a flash. Even without [[Carnymancy]], it is still possible to fight Fate, but this results in a backlash against the person to resist their fate, causing an event that they like even less to occur.	+	Predictamancy works by peering into the Titans' great plan or anything else that has similarly already been decided.

Using unknown means, this spell has been cast by a combination of a [[Predictamancy]], [[Thinkamancy]], [[Lookamancy]], and [[Findamancy]]. It can be dispelled with [[Carnymancy]]. In addition to [[warlord]] status, it also granted Parson the [[caster]] [[special]], though he did not have access to it initially and had to unlock it by examining an unrolled [[scroll]].

The [[Titan]]s' [[Carnymancy]] tampered with the bracer, giving a chance of [[zero]], so as to dissuade Parson from taking the option. But Charlie's Carnymancy fought against it, allowing the true odds to flash briefly. The bracer revealed that Parson is indeed a caster and had a 98% chance of successfully casting the scroll.
