Ok as a follow up to both points,

can the GM, if the player roles really badly in the gun fight example, compel, weapon jammed, or add a sticky aspect to represent the gun jam?
If the player trys to fire it with out clearing the jam would the damage then be done to the player as the gun explodes in his hand??? I am trying to work out how this would work.

Also in regard to the the consequence compels, can you add consequences to items, cars, swords, etc..... if they are treated badly or targeted specifically.


Cheers

Hi Guys,

I also have a werebear type character they are awesome.

However i didn't really like silver as a catch (as most were-creatures are not loup garo types), in the end we had a couple of options, with a Norse feal we and anywhere cold we had fire, as it also something that bears fear... For a demonic grizzly we had holy objects. But for the final version we had a Native American type background and feel for where the power came from and the resulting catch was Obsidian, a substence that was made for only the best weapons due to the fact it is razor sharp (can be made sharper than steel) and still used for surgical blades today.......

Also as a feet wet character, the initial character did not have echos of the beast or beast change, reflecting he did not know how to use his power or his new form, after a few milestones he has begun to expand and use his powers and new form more readily...

Anyway hopefully this may help someone else....

So I have an Idea about a character/NPC that would be really interesting and want to see what people think:

Basically the Magic user (focus praticoner or wizard) is part of the computer him self.

The basic components are (crafting, Divination and Conjuration)

So works as follows, The computer is the way the character focuses his magic, the crafting would be the character using 'download component' from the various spell components to download an effect into an item (eg creating magic mobile phones through rune inscribed rocks)

The Divination is fundermentally the magical equivelent of a search engine,  being able to find out information  from any word writtern, peoples memories, drawn maps etc

The conjuration allow the character to print (i really like this idea) the items he wants for spell components and things he may need want for a specific situation.

I forsee the computer as being a single very powerful focus item that effects the fine controll of all these items....

What do people think?

Just would like some help

Have a concept for a character I really like.

Dr of Archeology is messing around on some Ancient Minoan ruins in Crete and discovers an anciant Labyrinth (actually a portal in to a part of the Never Never) and the Spirit of the Minotaur inhabits his body as a way of escaping its spiritual prison.

So very mild mannered Dr Washington 'Wash' Harris a Dr or Archeology is a member of Paranet community in search of a 'cure' although the spirit is so strong it will not budge and seems to be part of his spirit/soul, so currently looking at ways of supressing the Minotaur inside him.

However when he looses his temper and gets angry he transforms into the Minotaur....

so couple of things I need help with...

• first is the High Concept I can't make anything sound right......themically
• Second is the Powers, what do people think fits (Claws/Horns is a given as well as possible strength etc but do people think beast of change/marked by power/demonic co pilot, also was think Inhuman form with Involuntary change (kind of like the Hulk, only when made angry (Bulls being known for there temper)

as always appreciate the help (power level is Chest High)

Cheers

Genius....

I that really helps Think I have it will have a play with this system and maybe post example of building two possible constructs:

Golems and Gargoyles (just as a starting point)

Hi Korwin,

Thats really helpful could you give me an example of how this would work. I am trying to learn the system to DM so trying to absorb as much knowledge as possible so a practical example would really help.

Thanks again (I will try and work this out again but it would help to see how some one else would do it)

cheers

The Codex

Bubba love the picture (have shown to my player now he wants one.....)

ok so here is my question could i create a construct by using the following:

using the method for summoning binding, create a ward/vessel/shell of the construct, physical stress determind by crafting quality of the object used as the shell. The ward for containing the summoned energies is the mental stress the construct can take before the energies are disappated.

then summoning the energies defines the refresh of the animated creature and its powers (possibly needing demonic co pilot if you want a thinking creature not just following basic orders) .

Finally you bind the creature this defines the duration of the creature and how much control you have over it.....

anyway would appreciate the help of thoose with better understanding of the rules to define this a bit more...
