Crossroads Demon Sponsored Magic?

<< < (2/2)

Dragonsdai:
What about illusions of things that shouldn't be dangerous, it's kind of borderline silly but if she has like a giant feather that functions as a sword?

Sanctaphrax:
Conjuration has plenty of combat applications. Especially if you can create objects that are inherently dangerous or in motion. Conjuring acid or arrows in flight is pretty deadly.

The "worthless" part needs to be set aside, though; obviously you don't want your magic to be definitionally worthless.

nadia.skylark:
Do you think this power should have air/smoke as part of it?

I'm trying to figure out what a (non-conjuration) attack would look like. Maybe poisonous gas?

Jabberwocky:
For starters, if you haven't done it yet, I would recommend you to have a look at the chapter Voidcalling in the Fate System Toolkit (free download from Evil Hat: https://www.evilhat.com/home/fate-core-downloads/) This could give you a good idea of how magic with an inherent tendency to backfire or go awry could look like. Second, whatever the desired effect is, I would handle it through compels (compels solve everything, remember? :-) Any effect created with the sponsored evothaum would have an appropriate aspect (e.g. Crossroads Demon's Workings or similar) and the GM could compel you or even tag it for free at an (in)appropriate moment. Self-compels would be also welcome. That's my two pence, anyway :-)
