So consensus is...Athletic Prowess or whatever i decide to call it should be just +1 to attack if you have a higher athletics score then??
Another idea to run past you all that maybe should go in the focused practitioner thread, but i am going to toss here anyway since it is still for this same character, maybe, undecided on that. (The long lived theme and then the evocation theme both being present is due to him being scion of a wind god essentially, seems odd for him not to have at least some ability with the wind)
Specialized Magic
-1 refresh, May be taken multiple times, but not more then your conviction or your discipline, whichever is lower. (maybe half? so it is limited by your "actual" ability even more?)
May only be taken for Channeling. You loose the option to have foci or enchanted items. (and loose option to use refinement for those purposes)
Due to your control of a certain element being intrinsic, you are unable to make foci or magical items. Instead when you take this power you gain a +1 to either conviction or disciple that only functions for your channeling.
Am i off base or is this a decent way to give a focused practitioner a way to excel and advance, and yet stay focused... loosing foci and enchanted items is a lot, so i think it balances out okay...opinions?
