Sorcery beckons those with an innate connection to the arcane, weaving spells effortlessly with an instinctual finesse. Embark on a journey through the mystical realms of magic, where raw power intertwines with untamed intuition in a mesmerizing dance of potential and peril.
Trauma Condition - Ostentatious As a sorcerer you must speak out loud and gesture to use powers. Your power effects are dramatic and obvious to observers. You might be surrounded by an aura appropriate to the power used or consisting of magical symbols, momentarily hover above where you were standing, or cause an explosion of power. Higher tier effects have more spectacular side effects, and the consequences you suffer can be based on particularly annoying side effects.
Special Abilities
In addition to the listed powers, you have access to these special abilities.
- Blood Power: You may expend your special armor to reduce harm from a consequence when using a power or to push yourself when using a power.
- Casual Blaster: When you use a power to make an attack that is fine and/or potent, you can opt to remove these qualities. For each quality you choose not to use, the stress cost and die requirement of the power use is each reduced by one.
- Power of Desperation: When you roll a desperate action when using powers, you get +1d to your roll.
- Power Incarnate: You can use Skirmish instead of Consort when using what is normally Consort powers.
- Presence of Power: When you unleash violence using powers, it's especially frightening. When you Command a frightened target, take +1d.
- Spirit Ally: You have a spirit ally you can summon using Advanced Attune powers. You have an established relationship with this creature, which gives you +2d on Attune checks against it. Your ally will advance in tier as you do.
