Those of Ethus were born under the Signs of Magic. Signs are the same as astrological signs, so they are assigned depending on when you are born.
No Signs are limited to just what they say, if you can find a power that is fitting for their strengh level that would fit nicely in, it can be added.
Those born under Division, Genesis and Eternity can sense what someone else's sign is. Also those of the same sign can often sense another of their sign. The stronger you are, the more obvious what your sign is.
Magic use is tiring. Strengh is measured in ability and endurance. Once you reach the end of your power you begin to drain your life force and you will eventually die if you continue using your powers. Not everything you do will be taxing, small uses, of cource, use up small ammounts of power so a strong sign would hardly even notice the use.
