One of my players wanted to know what the effect of having his sustaining foci surgically implanted in to his mage would be? I didn't have a ready answer for it, so I decided to do some "research" by posting it here.
Basically the questions are: Would it cost essence? Could they be turned on and off or would they be always on? |
