Savar 4 Report post Posted May 27, 2017 The idea is, if someone takes a specialization of magic it limits the spells they can learn.

Yes, plus the one from a setting about a rebellion that is a copy cat of star wars in the same book. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Savar 4 Report post Posted April 25, 2018 After a time away and returning to look at the rules.... I was thinking treating Magic as a general skill that you must take a subset of. Magic (Psionics) or Magic (Necromancy) Then a specialization of Magic (type) would be a specific spell? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Obadiah 1 Report post Posted August 19, 2019 I like the last idea the most. One thing though, it might require more Dice to use during character creation to allow for more starting spells. But, limiting a caster type's starting Dice would work quite well for the 'typical' spell caster type. Y'know the kind; physically weak, no martial skills but are quite potent even from the start. Also, a thought about the penalty at the beginning... Maybe instead of forbidding the character to learn any other magic, you could make spell from other lists cost double for purchasing and improving.

Interesting idea. The character combines schools of magic to do different things. So, say he wants to summon a wall of fire, he'd roll his Summoning skill and his Elemental Magic skill, each at -1D?

Savar 4 Report post Posted August 20, 2019 I was thinking that you could learn different subsets. When you learn a spell that could be cast by multiple subsets you just use the one that is highest to cast the spell. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
