I've actually thought of a tradition to do with rock music!

Tools and Trappings obviously include sheet music for libraries, and instruments for foci. Spells would come out as riffs. Here are some ideas for those who choose to follow such an unique tradition:
  • Geas - must sing and/or play guitar when casting spells
  • Centering of playing guitar or singing is always popular as well
  • Geas of "Must have practiced guitar for at least 3 hours in the last 24"
  • Sheet music would make great spell formulae and an excellent thesis
  • Playing at clubs would make an excellent Night Job Flaw (Like a Day Job, but at night!)
Anything else? What could be put into a magician-rocker's lifestyle? I think that a trid subscription ought to make sense. (So many music channels!) And I'm trying to see what parts of Sprawl Survival Guide I can put in. This can be adapted for rap! :D
