DFRPG / Aspects with holy fire?
« on: December 14, 2014, 03:09:19 AM »
Hello all,
I was just wondering what you would allow someone to do with a breath weapon that is basically fire with the holy aspect?  I am playing a nephilim character and took the power but wanted to be able to use it for stuff besides combat?

DFRPG / Dragon Shouts from Skyrim?
« on: December 07, 2014, 06:11:21 AM »
Hello all,

I have been playing the crap out of Skyrim for the last week, and I was just wondering how you would mimic the dragon shout abilities in DFRPG?

DFRPG / The Irregular at Magic Highschool?
« on: November 19, 2014, 08:54:52 AM »
Hello all,
I just sat down and binge watched the whole tv series (Irregular at Magic Highschool) on Netflix and loved every minute of it, so I was interested in seeing if anyone had came up with a way to do it using the DFRPG rule set?  I can only think of three major options.

Evocation with CAD (Casting Assist Devices) being Foci that only work with Rotes...
Thaumaturgy with Enchanted Items...
Sponsored Magic: Focusing on specific clan types, with Foci that only work with Rotes...

DFRPG / All Creatures Equal Before God?
« on: November 17, 2014, 10:03:26 AM »
Hello all,

I was thinking the "All Creatures Equal Before God" part of the Sword of the True Cross power set could be appropriate for a soul fire style breath weapon.  Am I off base, or does this seem appropriate as a 1 point add on for Breath Weapon, if the breath weapon can't get strength bonuses due to its type?

It does seem expensive for 1 point, since it does nothing without a fate point but when active it seems kind of nasty to me?

DFRPG / Maneuvers to get armor or weapons?
« on: November 08, 2014, 06:15:50 AM »
Hello all,

I was just wondering if you would allow someone to use earth magic to apply the aspects Armed or Armored as part of an evocation spell?  This just seems cool to me but the items would be crude unless you had very good craftsmanship skills?

DFRPG / Foci Item double check?
« on: November 07, 2014, 09:28:05 AM »
Hello all,
I am kind of exhausted right now and I want to make sure I have this down correctly?  Can I have a foci that provides a benefit to earth magic like this, or is it violating the way benefits have to be broken up, and it needs to have a +1 in 3 different effects like +1 to earth offense control, earth defense control, earth defense power?

Earth Bracers:                      3
   -Earth Defense:
      -Control:                  +2
      -Power:                  +1

DFRPG / Creating things with magic?
« on: November 07, 2014, 01:28:57 AM »
Hello all,

I was looking over Ars Magica, after looking over the Earth Channeling Crusader thread, and I was just wondering but would you need to spend powers for duration shift if using earth magic to create a wall, or something similar, or should many things done with that type of spell be permanent unless broken through?

Example:
-Creating a wall of stone or Foxhole by using earth magic, and taking cover behind/inside it?
-Would you need to spend power for long durations on a block, or would these just count as aspects?

DFRPG / Divination at the speed of evocation?

Hello all,

I was wondering how you would use Divination at the speed of evocation.

DFRPG / Sponsored Magic and at the speed of Evocation?
« on: October 11, 2014, 08:51:39 PM »
Hello all,

I was wondering something about "at the speed of Evocation", are you allowed to generate power the same way you would with Thaumaturgy or do you have to do it the same way as evocation, ie no real prep time?

DFRPG / Increasing a Border on a Zone?
« on: October 07, 2014, 09:55:51 PM »
Hello all,
I had a number of questions on using magic to strengthen a border zone. 

1) Is this offensive or defensive for the purpose of Foci?

2) Does a caster need to add the zone wide cost to the spell, ie using part of the spell power for a zone wide effect?  Example: 10 strength earth magic spell - 8 on the Block, 2 on making it Zone Wide?

3) Could the caster then spend time creating a ward on this new zone border with Thaumaturgy?  I understand time would be a problem but considering that he could turn around and cast another spell to increase the duration by 10 exchanges, this doesn't seem to be an issue?

4) Does this count as a violation of the laws?  It doesn't seem to as the affect won't be killing or even causing harm directly?

DFRPG / Emissary of Power and adding a new sponsor?
« on: October 06, 2014, 06:23:55 AM »
Hello all,

I was wondering how you would deal with a character wishing to branch out from their primary patron.  In the case of my game (I am ST), a player wishes to become the host for a powerful outsider and there bye gain new powers outside the scope of their current patron. 

Currently: A spirit of prophecy who provides Cassandra's Tears, & Sponsored Magic for Storm stuff with Divination at the speed of Evocation.
Add On: Outsider with some recovery powers.

DFRPG / Modular Abilities?
« on: October 05, 2014, 08:34:26 AM »
Hello all,
I was just wondering if anyone uses this ability as it seems very expensive for a fairly limited suite of powers?  Now I do think it could be useful to simulate a series of different pieces of equipment if you wanted an Iron Man style character but frankly it just seems kind of meh for anything else?

DFRPG / Can Evocation create an aspect and do damage?
« on: September 22, 2014, 09:44:44 AM »
Hello all,

I was taking a look at Claws and its Venomous upgrade, and then I got to be thinking about Evocation but I wasn't sure if applying a weapon attack and creating an aspect or some other effect was legal for Evocation, so I thought I would ask the boards?

For instance, lets say I have a 5 power spell using Fire magic or Winter Sponsored Magic?
1) So I can be flinging around a 5 stress attack which just burns them...

2) Or could I have it apply a 2 stress attack, and apply an aspect of Frozen in Place?

3) What about applying a 2 stress attack, and applying a block of 3 on their actions until they break through it?

DFRPG / Please stat the Witchblade & Darkness?
« on: September 20, 2014, 06:58:54 AM »
Hello,
I was hoping to get some assistance?  I could have sworn these two items of power had been made on these forums but I wasn't able to find them, so I was hoping someone could either stat them out, or give me the link?

DFRPG / New Orleans?
« on: September 08, 2014, 09:54:39 PM »
Hello all,

My group has decided on doing a DFRPG game set in New Orleans, can I get some people to look over the work I have done so far and get some opinions?  Here is a wiki, I made for the game just in case we lose character sheets or the city sheets.  I should clarify that none of us have ever been to RW New Orleans, so I just used wikipedia's and an hour of research + random ideas floating in my head, with some flat stolen names from Mercede's Lackey.
