Flavour of Magic
From A KoL Wiki
Flavour of Magic
Type: NoncombatMP Cost: 10
This spell will allow you to bring your mystical being in line with the elemental forces that underly all things: earth, wind, fire, water, and heart. Wait, I mean hot, cold, sleaze, stench, and spookiness. And what's the deal with 'heart' anyway? How does that make any sense at all?
Forces pasta spells (not sauce ones) to have a single element of choosing. Also gives +10 spell damage to pasta spells. (40 Adventures)

Notes
- Despite the in-game description, this skill is not a noncombat skill itself but offers the five elemental noncombat skills noted above.
- After NS13, Flavour of Magic was changed to give +10 bonus spell damage to pasta spells.
References
- The elemental forces mentioned are a reference to the cartoon show Captain Planet. The powers that combined to form Captain Planet were, in order, Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, and Heart; the phrase "And what's the deal with 'heart' anyway?" refers to the fact that the fifth element, Heart, is often ridiculed.
- Oddly enough, the 5 elements are not listed in the 'correct' order in the skill description. Perhaps the order they are in is a result of wanting "Earth, Wind, and Fire" to be in that order. The correct order is Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, Heart.
- The name of the skill may be a reference to the first Discworld novel, "The Colour of Magic".
