Sponsored Magic Master List
Hick Jr:
I did another one. I may have a Sponsored Magic problem.
TENEBROMANCY [-4]
Description:You've learned to wield shadow magic, a dark reflection of normal magic. Contrary to popular belief, it isn't evil. It's dark. It's reflective. It isn't particularly nice. But then, neither is regular magic.
Sponsor:The collective ur-intellect composed of the world's billions of shadows.
Agenda:Shadows aren't really clever enough to have an agenda, but they'd like it if the sun went out, or was permanently eclipsed. Destroying sources of light is generally enough for them.
Evocation:Rather obviously, shadows. Besides manifesting corporeal shadows, you also mimic the conventional elements- their "shadow" copies. You can also manipulate reflections and mirrors.
Thaumaturgy: Tenebromantic rituals can obscure things, conjure objects out of shadow-matter, summon creatures of darkness, scry through shadows, teleport through shadows, and steal people's shadows.
Evothaum:You can use any ritual you can cast with Tenebromancy at Evocation's speed and methods.
Extra Benefits: You gain the effects of the Cloak of Shadows power. Also, you learn to reflect spells off bulwarks of darkness- if you successfully defend against an attack with an Evocation block, you may sacrifice your next action to turn that defense into an automatically successful attack, using the block strength as an attack roll, and the strength of the attack as Weapon rating.
Lavecki121:
This reminds me of that doctor who episode with the shadows
Hick Jr:
Silence in the Library? The Vashta Nerada would make a really, really cool summon. Hm.
Lavecki121:
Yea. That one. That would be cool
Sanctaphrax:
Looks a little strong.
I normally don't worry about how broad a Sponsored Magic's evocation is, but I think giving out every element is a bit much.
And while either of the two extra benefits would probably be fine, both together seems like too much.
