OK, I know by the topic description that I might get flamed, but this is just my curiosity.
I know that a mage must learn his spells and that the ones in the book are the powerful ones, but can a mage cast minor magics such as Chill or Clean without having to spend karma on them. My idea is that cantrips that don't really have a game effect such as Clean don't have to cost karma. Clean cantrip just removes dirt (it does not remove physical evidence... to do that you need a Sterilize spell). Chill can make your drink cold. The effects would be really minor, but would add some flavor to mages. |
