<h1>Casting A Spell Furtively</h1>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Spells require precise movements and spoken incantations; they also produce
|
|
visible and fantastical effects. Because of this, everyone nearby will
|
|
immediately know that magic is being used, and who by — it is impossible to
|
|
cast a spell furtively.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Offensive Spells</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Spells marked with <strong>(rr)</strong> next to their name are offensive
|
|
spells.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
When you cast an offensive spell, you perform the appropriate Magic Check and
|
|
the target's Magic Defense score determines the Difficulty Level. If the spell
|
|
has multiple targets, it will affect each target whose Magic Defense is equal
|
|
to or lower than the Result of your Magic Check (similarly to a multi attack).
|
|
The spell will affect each target whose Magic Defense is equal to or lower
|
|
than the total Result of your Magic Check.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you roll a critical success on the Magic Check, the spell automatically
|
|
hits all targets.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Calculating Damage and Similar Effects</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Several spells require you to calculate the potency of their effects using
|
|
your High Roll (HR) — to do so, simply take the highest die you rolled on your
|
|
Magic Check. The same effect will then be applied to each target.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Ending the Effects of a Spell</h2>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
If you cast a spell with a duration of "Scene", you can end its effect at
|
|
any time.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
The effect will also end if you die or fall unconscious, or if you leave the
|
|
scene.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Cumulative Spell Effects</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the same spell is cast more than once on a target, its effects will not
|
|
stack — the most recent casting will replace the previous one.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Example:</strong> The spell Elemental Shroud grants Resistance to one
|
|
damage type chosen among air, bolt, earth, fire, and ice. If this spell is
|
|
cast on a creature granting them Resistance to fire, and is subsequently cast
|
|
again on the same creature granting them Resistance to ice, the creature will
|
|
only be Resistant to ice.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If two spells have identical effects but different names, they do not stack.
