Powers


Bards, Beastmasters, Monks, and Paladins have Powers granted at certain levels, shown as the Armband Color under the sample Powers lists. A Power is not a spell, but rather an innate ability based both on the character's general understanding of magic and of her class. Therefore, Power points used are generally much lower than those used in casting a spell. In addition, some powers grant a bonus to the character's Magical Aptitude (MA) roll.

When using a Power, the character rolls a d100 on her MA. If the Power has a bonus to the MA roll, that bonus is added to the character's MA. If the roll is under the adjusted MA, then the Power is successful, and applicable Power points are used. If the roll is above the adjusted MA but below 100, the Power is unsuccessful, but no Power points are expended. If the roll is 100, the character will be directed to roll again. If the second roll is 1-94, there will be no additional effect. If the second roll is 95-100, the applicable Power points are expended, and the character loses the ability to use that power for one (1) day.
