Most games have magic systems that are clearly defined and limited, often for the sake of balancing mystical classes with the mundane. Mage had no such constraint. If you could dream it, you could do it. The rules were present only to guide you to that end, and to make it so that you couldn.

Post a Comment. The Basics of Spellcasting. Sources: Spellcasting, as written, is straight out of the advanced "beta" version of Mage: The Awakening 2nd edition. Additional explanation is in this font, when it helps drive the concepts home.
Mages channel what they know of reality and the Mysteries into the world to disrupt the Lie. These new realities take the form of spells, and crafting them into being is casting, or spellcasting. The mage imagines each part of the spell in her mind before she casts it, envisioning the Imago of the spell.
The Imago is the mental representation of the end result of the spell including all its effects and factors. Without the Imago, the mage is incapable of fully envisioning what she wants to impart into the world, her will incapable of imprinting the truth without a defined Pattern.
Improvised Spells, mage the awakening 2e pdf download. In the most simple form of spellcasting, a mage mage the awakening 2e pdf download an Imago on the fly, responding to a mage the awakening 2e pdf download by drawing on her knowledge of the Arcana and the symbols of her Path. This kind of spell — improvised magic — is the most common form, as opposed to the personal specialties of a Praxis or the formalized learning of a Rote.
When casting the spell, the mage creates a dice pool based on her Gnosis and her dots in the highest Arcanum included in the spell. The mage must decide what she wants her spell to achieve before rolling, and a single success means the spell is cast to her specifications. The magic casting dice pool is modified by Yantras and spell factors. The penalties to spellcasting can exceed the normal —5 penalty cap to dice pools. In cases where the penalty would reduce the dice pool beyond 0 — and thereby a chance die — by an additional —5 even after including bonuses from Yantras, the spell is too complex for the mage to cast and it automatically fails.
The mage may need to spend Mana as part of spellcasting. Improvising a spell using a Common or Inferior Arcanum costs one point of Mana, in addition to any other Mana the spell may require. Spellcasting results in the following general effects, but each of these can be increased through changing mage the awakening 2e pdf download factors or risking Paradox:.
The mage can utilize different techniques to get more out of her base spell after she determines the spell effects and the level of each Arcanum involved. Most changes affect the dice pool as either bonus or penalty dice, but other, more profound effects require the mage to risk incurring a Paradox by Reaching.
Mages can Reach to move from a Standard to an Advanced spell f actor chart, or create specialized effects in certain spells such as increasing damage type on attack spells. Each time she Reaches, she adds dice to the Paradox dice pool based on her Gnosis. For example a mage with four dots of the Mind Arcanum gains two free Reaches when casting a spell that requires Mind 3. Yantras are a form of magical shorthand which a mage uses to help her focus on casting a spell. She can use nearly anything — an object, a place, a type of environment, or even a specific set of f actions — to focus her will and recall her Imago.
More on Yantras on a feature post. Through dedicated practice or repetitive use of certain spells, a mage may develop a Praxis. Praxes are spell Imagos the mage has gained special insight into, learning the symbols of the spell by heart. She is more adept at casting these spells, and they shape her growing Gnosis. When casting a Praxis spell, the mage gains an exceptional success with three successes instead of five.
Praxes do not require a point of Mana to cast from Inferior or Common Arcana, but any other Mana costs still apply. A mage gains one free Praxis for every dot of Gnosis, and may purchase more for one Arcane Experience each.
The character must be capable of casting the Praxis as an improvised spell. Experienced mages perfect their grasp of spell Imagos over time, learning the complexity of the spell and developing skills to recall and cast it mage the awakening 2e pdf download ease.
Masters call these specialized Imagos Rotes, codifying and recording their methods to later teach less experienced mages. Orders teach Rotes to their members using a set of mnemonic techniques — mudras — to compress, memorize, recall, and cast the spell as quickly and efficiently as improvised spells.
Rotes copied onto physical media using the Prime Arcanum are called Grimoires. Anyone able to cast the improvised version of a spell can use a Grimoire to cast the Rote by following the instructions, though the caster may not use Reach to cast instantly when casting out of a Grimoire, mage the awakening 2e pdf download, and the ritual casting time is doubled. The character must be free to make the mnemonic gestures to recall the Rote in order to benefit from the Skill bonus.
The caster of a Rote is considered to have five dots in the highest Arcanum used for purposes of how much free Reach she has.
Rotes do not require a point of Mana to cast from Inferior or Common Arcana, but any other Mana costs still apply. The benefits of Rotes do not stack with the benefits of Praxes. If a mage has the same spell as both a Rote and a Praxis, she must decide at casting which she uses. Rotes may be purchased for one Experience each, and the character must be capable of casting the spell as an improvised spell before purchasing the Rote. Spell Mage the awakening 2e pdf download. A mage can create an Imago, though, for a spell that affects an entire group of people, or an enchantment that lasts an entire day.
The elements of a spell — the size or number of subjects — are called spell factors, and the mage can increase them with increasingly difficult spell Imagos. It determines the extent of the effect of a spell. For example, attack spells use Potency for how much damage is applied. Scale - measure of how large a spell is. It determines how many subjects the spell can affect, the size of an area the spell encompasses, and the size of the largest subject.
Range - how far the spell can be cast. Spells either require the mage to touch her subject, or be in sensory Range of her subject to cast.
Casting Time - is how long it takes mage the awakening 2e pdf download mage to cast the spell. Mages may gain bonuses for taking longer to cast spells.
The primary spell factor can be changed with a Reach. Some spells may use a spell factor more than once — or example, a spell transforming a truck into an elephant mus account for the Size of both. In these cases, use the largest penalty for each factor. Potency matters for spells that grant bonuses, impose penalties, or provide graduated levels of effects, such as dealing damage or increasing dot-ratings of traits. Each level of Potency beyond the first imposes a —2 penalty to the casting roll.
Moving to indefinite requires a second Reach, and the caster must also spend a point of Mana, mage the awakening 2e pdf download. A Note on Lasting Effects:. Many spells specify that some effects are Lasting, or give the option to create Lasting effects with Reach. When a spell ends, look at what it changed, if anything, in the environment. Those are its Lasting qualities. The scale of a spell is how large the spell is. Mages must decide when casting whether they are targeting specific subjects or a blanket area of effect.
Aimed spells must use area of effect, centered on wherever the mage aims. If the mage uses Number of Subjects for Scale, the factor determines how many subjects may be affected and the Size of the largest subject, mage the awakening 2e pdf download.
Once decided, a mage can affect fewer subjects than the scale of her spell permits. If using Area of Effect for Scale, the factor instead determines how large the area covered by the spell is, mage the awakening 2e pdf download, applying the spell effect to anyone or anything within. A mage cannot single out specific subjects in the declared space unless she uses the spell Warding Gesture Fate. Range determines if the spell requires the mage to touch her subject, or simply be in sensory range to create an effect.
Range does not increase incrementally with penalties like other factors. The Advanced Range factor is sensorymeaning that the mage must be able to directly see, hear, or sense her subject. Viewing a subject remotely but in real-time, whether by security camera or magic scrying window, requires an additional Reach.
A spell cast with sensory range cannot be dodged by the subject, and does not require an Aimed Mage the awakening 2e pdf download roll.
If the mage has the Space Attainment Sympathetic Range or the Time Attainment Temporal Sympathy , she can cast spells without the need to sense her subject. For more details, see those Attainments. A mage can attempt to throw or fire her spell at her subject instead of touching him when casting at standard range. Aimed mage the awakening 2e pdf download appear as bolts of energy or projections coming from the casting mage, as opposed to spells cast at sensory range which materialize at the point of the subject.
A success means the spell hits her subject as intended, mage the awakening 2e pdf download failure means the spell effect misses its subject. Aimed spell rolls happen after spellcasting rolls and Paradox roll results have been determined, but are reflexive — they happen on the same turn as the spellcasting roll.
Casting Time. Casting time determines how long the mage takes to create her effect. Standard casting takes time, and all spells are ritually cast. By using a Reach, a caster may instead cast immediately, in a single turn. Immediate spells cannot gain extra dice from taking extra time, but may take several turns of preparation to use all the Yantras the caster wishes to include.
Ritual spells can benefit from teamwork, while an immediate spell cannot. Before dice are rolled for spellcasting, the caster must consider if her subject can Withstand her magic, as it could affect the dice pool and outcome of the casting. The subject of a spell can always choose not to Withstand a spell, but she must consciously choose to do so as a reflexive action. Withstood spells reduce their Potency by levels equal to the Withstand rating. If this leaves the spell with no levels in Potency, it still counts as an active spell against spell control but has no further effect.
Casting the Spell. Once all dice penalties and bonuses are calculated, including any penalties from Paradox, mage the awakening 2e pdf download, the player rolls dice. A single success on the casting means the spell effect takes place. Labels: MtA 2e.
