Chapter 7: Spells / Casting Spells / Spell Components

Material

Source Core Rulebook pg. 303 ^2.0
A material component is a bit of physical matter consumed in the casting of the spell. The spell gains the manipulate trait and requires you to have a free hand to retrieve and manipulate a material component. That component is expended in the casting (even if the spell is disrupted).

Except in extreme circumstances, you can assume all common components are included in a material component pouch.
