I’ve only just begun reading about spellcasting, so please bare with me!
I’m a mage with spellcasting 5 and magic 5. With equipment I weigh about 100 kg. I want to levitate myself and I don’t want physical drain, so I choose a force 4 levitate. In the book is says: “The caster must achieve a threshold on the Spellcasting Test equal to 1 per 200 kg of the subject’s mass.” So I use 10 dice and I just need to get 1 hit for the spell to work, right? Let’s say I’m unlucky I only get the one hit and now I want to know how fast I’m moving. In the book is says: “The subject of the spell can be moved anywhere in the caster’s line of sight at a Movement rate equal to the spell’s Magic x net Spellcasting hits in meters per turn.” Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t get it. Is “the spell’s Magic” the spells force ((4) x something) or is it my magic ((5) x something)? And the “net Spellcasting hits” are the hits that exceed the hit(s) I need for the spell to work, right? If so the spell works with 1 hit, but I move nowhere coz my movement rate is 0 net hits x something = 0 meters. I’ve got the feeling I misunderstood something major here. I hope you can help. :) |
