Mr. R Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 So as many of you know I am (slowly) working on my campaign. Mostly its an intellectual exercise, but if I ever use it, I want to make it work. So I am using a system of magic from Mr. Killer Shrike http://www.killershrike.com/FantasyHERO/HighFantasyHERO/MagicSystems/Metier.aspx Central to this system is the Styles that differentiate the different practitioners. On the Page he has five General Purpose styles. They are: Preciat Required Advantages: Reduced Endurance (0 Endurance; +1/2) Required Limitations: Incantations (-1/4), Side Effects (-1/4) Dosao Required Advantages: Reduced Endurance (0 Endurance; +1/2), Difficult to Dispel x4 (+1/2) Required Limitations: Concentration (-1/4), Extra Time (-1/4), Incantations (-1/4), Gestures (-1/4) Grendmere Required Advantages: Difficult to Dispel x8 (+3/4) Required Limitations: Increased END Cost x2 (-1/2), Extra Time (-1/4) Selembri Required Advantages: IPE (at least to two senses; +1/2) Required Limitations: Increased END Cost x2 (-1/2) Vorba Required Advantages: Difficult to Dispel x4 (+1/2) Required Limitations: Gestures (Complex, -1/2) I like. But then he gives examples of more ... Limited Styles Conde (con-DAY) is a purely offensive Style known for its destructiveness. This Style only has attack oriented Matrixes. Signature: Matrixes of this Style are typically simple and single-purposed, and feel "hot", "volatile", or "dangerous" to those with Mystic Senses. Required Advantages: Armor Piercing (+1/2) Required Limitations: Gestures (-1/2) So Mental Powers, EBs, RKA, HA, Flashes. But would Dispels and Supresses be included? Fegoh (FAY-go) is a highly specialized Style based entirely around enhancing movement. This Style only has movement oriented Matrixes. Signature: Matrixes of this Style are typically simple and single-purposed, and feel "swift", "efficient", or "quick" to those with Mystic Senses. Required Advantages: Combat Acceleration/Deceleration (+1/4) Required Limitations: Concentration (Only to Activate, -1/4) So Flight, Running, Gliding, Swimming Would Tport be added? So now my question/ appeal. I want other of these... niche styles Example a Warding Style with only FF, FW and Entangle (Barriers only) One that only deals with senses like Flash, Darkness, Change Environment, Images, (Invisibility?) Any Other ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
