In game references simply call it all Sigil Magic but each layer is its own system.
Layer 1 TL +2
Sigil magic is so reliable, predictable and pervasive that it has effectively bumped the dwarven civilizations technology by two levels. So while most of the world is in the medieval period dwarves are effectively in the industrial period with mass production, mature steam power and even electricity!
Layer 2 Imbuements
Uses the system from GURPS Power-Ups 1: Imbuements which has expanded abilities in Pyramid #3/4 Perfect Defense, Pyramid #3/13 The Mystic Knight, Pyramid #3/36 Powering Up: Imbuements, Pyramid #3/60 Mystic Power Ups, Pyramid #3/71 Vehicle Imbuements, and finally Pyramid #3/102 Crafting Imbuements.
This is a pretty powerful system designed to enhance equipment, or even yourself, though its not very flexible. It requires a leveled empowering advantage costing 10/20/40 points and specific skills. It also can burn through a lot of fatigue.
It is primarily used by elite soldiers and craftsman.
Layer 3 Advanced Sigil Manipulation
Uses a custom system of Symbol magic and is very flexible. It requires a number of skills and usually takes a lot of time to craft spells, though there are ways to speed this up (skill penalties) and create combat useful charms or items. It is probably the most versatile magic system in the setting.
