Auras are passive area effects that can be either party friendly, enemy debilitating, or both. They will activate as soon as you place them into the active spell slots of your equipped spellbook or equip a spellbook that already has auras in the active spell slots.
The aura in the active spell slot does not have to be the currently selected "attack" slot. You can attack with weapons or cast a spell in one of the other hotkeyed slots. Only one aura will be active per character, even if you place two auras in the active spell slots (but you can quickly toggle between two auras with the hotkeys that way).
Some auras may continuously deduct health and/or mana from the user while active. Most aura effects do not stack with other instances of the same aura, but they stack with other auras and effects. Aura target effects, user effects, active cost(s), and radius are all scalable.
