My House Rules

[ Spoiler ]

Training and Learning House Rule

Instruction House Rule

Instructors lower the cost of raising your Skills by 25% (Rounded Down) of the Karma cost of the desired rating

Instructors charge 1000 X Desired Skill Rating Nuyen for their services.

Dark Magic House Rule

The use of Dark Magic is allowed but you cannot learn any at chargen.

Initiation House Rule

You can Initiate at Chargen but you are not allowed to pick an ordeal or any similar Karma reduction option.

Initiation no longer raises the Maximum Magic Cap.

Fixation House Rule

Fixated alchemical preparation now last for 1 month before they start to lose potency.

The number of preparations you can fixate is equal to your initiate grade.

Quickening House Rule

The number of spells you can quicken is equal to your initiate grade.

Invocation House Rule

A magician can use this metamagical technique to instill more power into a bound spirit. The net hits at the completion of this ritual determines the actual effect is has on the spirit. This ritual takes one hour per Force of the spirit and requires (Force x 25) drams of reagents to be used up in the invocation. The test is an Opposed Binding + Magic [Force] v. spirit’s Force x 2, and it inflicts Drain equal to twice the hits (not net hits) on the spirit’s defense test, minimum 2. If the spirit’s Force is greater than your Magic rating, the Drain is Physical; otherwise it’s Stun.

A magician that knows the Art of Sacrifice and Invocation may create a truly frightening entity—a great form blood spirit. During the ritual, a metahuman victim must be killed; this is required to fuel the “ascension” of the Blood Spirit.
