Was just crusin along the net lastnight and came across this and thought it would make a fairly interesting magical tradition for both PCs and NPCs? |

It is rather interesting but the Sikh religion is so small that it'd be wierd to see more than one or two of these practitioners in a campaign (unless it's based in South Asia).
Note that hermetic v shamanic doesn't matter anymore. This tradition would probably have willpower and charisma (strength of character) as its drain. I'd put earth as its combat element, not sure about the others. (Earth = metal = sword) Although I suppose earth could also be manipulation since it represents God's power of creation. |

True - I'd definately introduce it as a NPC tradition first. Hmm ... Nothing scarier than a guy who knows God is on his side... and wields the power to prove it. Maybe some rising star in the Humanis Policlub? :vegm:
I just noticed that - still absorbing the SR4 Magic chapter. |

sounds like an adept-only tradition to me, or at least one that mainly features adepts.
