New Styles


Mr. R

Recommended Posts

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?
