Magic Abilities
Every Player Character and most Non-Player Characters are magically powerful beings capable of innate magical abilities and some learned ones. These are often known as “Spells” or “Magic Abilities”.
All Abilities have a cost of Mana Points (MP) to be used.
Abilities require the ability to speak to be used and cannot be used more than once per 10 seconds.
All Magic requires the user to vocally roleplay casting the spell over at least 5 seconds with use of a certain keyword: these are not Effect Calls and should not be assumed to be known by all combatants as such.
Types of Ability
- Touch - Requires contact from the caster to the target either by melee weapon strike or, for non-combatants, being within arm's reach and clearly targeted.
- Range - Requires a beanbag of an appropriate colour to be thrown and hit the target's body. If the beanbag hits a shield or weapon instead of the body it does not affect the target but it is still considered used. Its effect cannot be used on a ricochet.
- Reaction - Used in reaction to another spell, call, or strike.
- Self - Used on the caster themselves.
