A Definition of Skills and Magic

In The Mixed Medieval Arts we have three main ways of producing certain actions, or Effects, upon the people or situations around us. Those are Skills, Faith based Magic, and Mana based Magic.

Skills are Actions and techniques that the Character has learned, practiced and which produce an in game Effect. Skill uses are typically limited to how many times per day that particular Skill may be used/utilised.

Faith based Magic would be any Effect that originates from a Cleric, Nature or Warlock Prayer. All 3 of these are fueled by Faith, through a Prayer Cycle.
Mana based Magic would be any Effect that originates from any Spell, Psionic, Circle or Rune. All 4 of these are fueled by Mana through a Mana Pool, or through a Spell Cycle or Psionic Cycle.

Instant vs Lingering Skills or Magic

All Skills and Magic, regardless of it's source, are either~

Instant

If you are the Casting Character of the Skill or Magic -

Instant Skills or Magic are when the results, or the Effects, of the Skill or Magic happens immediately, and DOES NOT leave any lasting Effects upon the casting Character.

An example of this would be FireBall, where after it is made and thrown, the Casting Character has no further beneficial or negative Effects.

If you are the Target Player of the Skill or Magic -

Instant Skills or Magic cast upon you will leave no lingering Effect, rather only an immediate result.

An example of this would be Healing Magic cast upon you where your Hit Points get a one time 'boost' but no further Effect.

Lingering

If you are the Casting Character of the Skill or Magic -

Lingering Skills or Magic are when the results, or the Effects, of the Skill or Magic happens over a period of time, and DOES leave lasting Effects upon the casting Character.

An example of this would be "Fly", where after it is cast, the Casting Character has a declared length of time to enjoy the Effects.

If you are the Target Player of the Skill or Magic -

Lingering Skills or Magic cast upon you will have a declared Time Call that will leave a lasting Effect.

An example of this would be Invisibility cast upon you, where you disappear from sight for a declared length of time.

At any one time, no Character may be under the BENEFICIAL Lingering Effects of more than ONE Mana based, ONE Prayer based and ONE Skill based source.

Durations

Each Skill will clearly state it's individual duration time. Durations means how long an active Skill may be used for,

if not canceled first.

Example~

A Character wants to use one of their daily uses of Hide in Shadows (this is the 'Cast'). It is a Level 2 Skill, and it lasts for 6 minutes (this is the Duration). They hunker down in a shady spot, with an closed fist held above their head and arm bent at 90 degrees (this is the Game Mechanic). Then, 3 minutes into the duration, they decide that they need to be seen, and so they drop the arm and hand signaling Hidden.

The Skill is now cancelled.

Despite the fact that the Skill could have lasted for 3 more minutes, it's use is now over, it's use is done, and another use of Hide in Shadows must be employed.

In short ~

The Skill determines the Game Mechanic, if that Game Mechanic then lingers, when the Game Mechanic is dropped/lowered, the Skill is instantly cancelled.

~ Skill Descriptions ~

Advanced Herbalism

Races restricted - Dwarf, Orc,

Guilds Disallowed - Engineer, Mercenary, WatchMan, Weapons Mster, Pirate, Thief, Enchanter, Rune Master

Skill Type - Instant (though individual Potions may vary)

~NOTE~

Herbalism is the mixing of knowledge and faith to produce magical results. An Herbalist does not study magic nor do they know how to enchant or to add specific incantations to anything. What they do know is plants, and all their potential properties. The know what root/leaf/tree bark to grind into a powder, and then how to mix it with the oils of certain berries/flowers/plants, and then how to make that mixture into a drinkable "tea" that can be bottled into a potion. Herbalists are not Wizards nor Clerics, they are masters of plant lore and trusting students of Mother Nature.
With this in mind, all Herbalism Potions must still be made according to all the rules laid down for Potion making, and those rules can be found in the Potions/Scrolls section of this Master Manual. Herbalism Potions must include a proper Base Colour and all Symbols drawn in the correct manner and colour.
Herbalism DOES NOT give the character any knowledge what-so-ever of how to read or interpret any Magic Symbols. They would not be able to decipher any other Symbol Phrase from any other source even if the Symbol Phrase is identical to a Potion the Herbalist makes all the time.
In no way does any level of Herbalism grant the skill Read Magic Symbols, the Symbols that the Herbalist must draw correctly are a game necessity, and not inner character knowledge.
Herbalists must follow all rules for the making of Nature Prayer Potions.

A small list of some other examples of Wizard Spells that would also be affected like this by Dispelling Powder are - Astral Projection, Blind, Confusion, Deflection, Entangle, Fear, Fly, Lantern Light, Mystic Armour, Persuade, Shadow Meld, Tongues of Truth, Weapon of Wizardry, any of the Set On Spells, etc.

In the case of non permanent magical weapons/items made through Spell or Mana based magic, Dispelling Powder cancels any lingering effects of the Spell that made it ( Ensorcel Weapon, the Runik Phrase, etc. ) thereby removing the magic and returning the weapon/item back to its previous non-magical weapon/item form.

Dispelling Powder is also effective against Spell or Mana based Summoned objects as well. This includes Familiars, Demon-Spawn and Devil-Kyn (But not Summoned Monsters see below), Mystic Shields, Phylacterys, etc.

Example ~

Willard the Wizard pays Edvardier the Enchanterer to place a spell of Fly on his cloak. Gold exchanges hands and Willard walks away one flying cloak the richer. As soon as he hits the streets outside of the Enchanters shop, Williard decides to test the cloaks new power and activates a use of the spell. Little did Williard know as he was happily soaring through the streets, that the public use of magic was not allowed in this community, and a member of the Town Guard quickly sprays him with Dispelling Powder. Williard immediately, and rather ungracefully, smashes to the ground, his cloak now just a normal cloak again, his money lost and the Guard awaiting.

With permanent magic weapons/items, Dispelling Powder cancels one use of that item every time it is hit by Dispelling Powder.

~~Dispelling Powder vs. magically Summoned creatures~~

If the creature is a direct result of a Mana based Spell cast upon them, for example Animate and Control the Dead, Peasants Death March, etc. then the Dispelling Powder removes the magic and the creature falls back to the way they were before being magically effected.

If the creature is a magically Summoned Monster through Circle Magic, the magic that has trapped it to the will of the Summoner is not in the creature itself but rather on the scroll that the Summoning Spell was written on and that is what must be Dispelled. The Summoning Scroll that controls the creature must be Dispelled within 25 feet of the creature it Summoned and the Character doing the Dispelling may wish to point at the creature he is wishing to get rid of.

Any other creature or monster that is not made through Mana based magic is immune to Dispelling Powder.

Many differing peoples from many diverse places all had a myriad of ways and recipes to create health potions, salves, ointments, unctures etc. Some collected water from forest pools sacred to them, some have elaborate and elongated rituals to perform over casks of liquids to purify and empower them. Others brew belief of Faith into their mixes to make them potent while yet others still have so much faith in their own selves that they manage to channel their own inner, inert power into the water to make it miraculous.

The Character may choose to make a Wizards Mark or a Holy Symbol what ever is in accordance with their choice of base colour.

Skill Type - Instant

Action

Character must spend at least 45 seconds of meditation, chanting, preparing etc. before an Exorcism can be attempted.

Character must be in the presence of a Target Player who is:

1) Under any effect of Mind control. This includes all variations of Curses, Persuade, Dominate and Possesion. This also includes any detrimental lingering effects on a Target Player from a Psionicist or any Psionic source.

2) In the Astral Plane.

3) A Summoned NPC\Monster or a Target Player who is presently in control of a Summoned DemonSpawn, DevilKyn, Familiar or a prepared Voodoo doll with a Lootable Body Part already attached to it.

Effect

1) For a victim of a Curse, Mind or Psionic control, the Exorcist (the Character performing the exorcism) must touch the forehead of the negatively affected Target Player. They must maintain contact and chant\pray\command the controlling force out for no less than 10 seconds. Character must then announce 'Exorcism', while still maintaining touch. The Target Player is now free from all lingering negative effects of the Curse, mind control or Psionic. An Exorcism can only be performed on others and never on one self.

2) Against Target Players in the Astral Plane, Exorcism allows Character throw rice to hit the Astral Player and announce 'Exorcism!'. If the Target Player is hit with the rice, they are immediately rejected from the Astral Plane and may not return there for 1 minute minimum. Note: Exorcism in no way allows the Exorcising Character to see into, or otherwise sense anything from the Astral Plane, but if the Character is aware, or has been made aware, of "Ghosts" amongst them, they may try an Exorcism.

The Summoned Monster\NPC is now free from the control and commands of the Summoning Character and may act and behave in any manner they choose. They do have a limited time to enjoy their new found Master-less freedom though, before the magic that brought them is exhausted and they disappear back to where they came from. This time limit is 10 minutes per level of the Summoned Monster, but in that time they may do whatever they wish including seeking revenge on the one who summoned it.

Against a DemonSpawn, DevilKyn, Familiar or a Voodoo doll with a body part attached, the Exorcising Character may throw rice and must hit the Summoned Monster\Doll. They must then announce 'Exorcism!'. The Monster summoning is now cancelled and the Summoning Player loses all bonuses and benefits of the Summoning. To regain the Summoned Monster and its benefits, the Summoning Player must repeat the Summoning process if they have a remaining per day use of the Summon Familiar Skill. In the case of an active Voodoo doll, the Body Part attached to the Voodoo doll is now ruined, and may not be used for any Voodoo effect. It must be removed and a new Body Part attached, the Exorcism effects the Body Part attached and not the doll. The doll can be reused with a new use of Create Voodoo Doll.

The Character can use Exorcism 3 times per day.

** Repair Armour Specialization: Auroras Star Forge **

Character may use the Effects of Repair Armour Level 3 Effects 9 times per day.

Additionally, Character may use the Effects of Auroras Star Forge three times per day.

Character may enhance the Armour upon the Star Forge, which allows for the wearer of the Armour to negate any physical blow which would normally damage the Armour. This includes all physical 'hits' ranging from a normal weapon strike, to Heart Rip and Impale.

Wearer of the Armour is allowed three physical Negates per use of Auroras Star Forge, and these uses linger until Midnight, unless used normally or the Armour is reduced to Zero Armour Points. To replenish these charges a new application of Auroras Star Forge must be used.

If the Armour has been reduced to 0 Hit Points in any Targetable Area (NOT the wearer, but the armour itself) the Negates are lost in that area.
Example~

Bob the Barbarian had his full suit (Body, Arms and Legs) of Level 3 Medium Armour (which adds 2 Armour Points to any Targetable Area covered) repaired with Auroras Star Forge. Later, in an ambush, Bob takes an arrow to his armoured leg, and Bob does not Negate the 'hit' for he has other more pressing matters on his mind (like staying alive!). The arrow does 2 Hit Points to Medium Armour, which reduces the Armour on that Leg to zero Armour Points. Later in the fight, a dastardly Rogue lands a "Hamstring!" (a 3 Hit Point leg strike) on that same leg with the arrow damaged Armour. Because the Armour on that Targetable Area has been reduced to zero, this blow may not be Negated. Sorry Bob.

Scribe Scroll

Races restricted - Giant, Troll

Guilds Disallowed - None, but Target Player must have either a Prayer Cycle or Spell Cycle.

Skill Type - Instant (though the Scrolls Effects may vary)

Rules

Scribe Scroll allows for a Character without any Magic Cycle, to create a Magic or a Holy Scroll.

What the Scribing Character does need is~

Knowledge of all Symbols used, by possessing an advanced enough Level of Read/Write Symbols.

Contact with a voluntary Target Player throughout entirety of the creation process.

Target Player must possesses a Magic Cycle (a Spell Cycle or Prayer Cycle), sufficient Slots (Spell Slots or Prayer Slots) and the Magic (the individual Spell or Prayer) that the Scribing Character wishes to make into a Scroll.

~~~~~~~~

All scrolls must only be written on MMA Scroll Parchment, and on nothing else. If a scroll is prepared on any other paper, fabric, etc. it breaks the rules, is rendered inert, and can not be used. Scrolls must be written in the proper colour for the type of magic (Black for Clerical Prayers, Green for Nature Prayers and Blue for Wizard Spells) on the inside and outside, but do not require a base colour (as do potions) to write the symbols upon. The magic symbol phrase must be drawn on the face of the unrolled scroll as large as the scroll allows, then the scroll must be rolled up and secured (tied or taped shut) then the magic symbol phrase must be drawn on the outside of the rolled up scroll as well, so that it does not need to be opened to know what it does. All Scrolls Effects happen immediately upon reading, but they may be delayed for up to 30 seconds, the same as Spell Retention Time. If the magic of the scroll is not used in those 30 seconds, the magic dissipates and fades and may not be called upon, effectively "wasting" the scroll to no effect.

Prayer casting Target Player must sacrifice enough Prayer Slots out of their Prayer Cycle to cast the Prayer they wish to Scribe, plus one Prayer Slot more per Level desired of the Prayer involved.

A Spell casting Target Player must sacrifice enough Spell Slots out of their Spell Cycle to cast the Spell they wish to Scribe, plus one Spell more per Level desired of the Spell invovled.

All scrolls expire by midnight.

Action

Character must have MMA scroll parchment, and a appropriate Target Player.

Target Player must know the Prayer or Spell they wish to make into a Scroll, and they must have enough Prayer Slots or Spell Slots in their Cycle to cast their magic plus one extra per Level of Magic used.

Target Player must maintain contact with the Scribe (hand on shoulder) for the duration of the Scroll creation, and the Target Player will spend the Slots out of their Cycle with the completion of the last symbol upon the Scroll.

Effect

Character must announce "Create Magic Scroll of ____" (if Spell Magic was used), or "Create Holy Scroll of ____" (if Prayer Magic was used) with the blank space being for the name of the Magic used.

Creates a readable only scroll containing one of the Target Players known Prayers or Spells.

A Scroll can be read at any time by anybody and the magic takes its effect with no Prayer or Spell Cycle cost to reading Player. The Scrolls magic allows for it to be read by anyone, regardless of Read/Write Skills, and of any Guild, except for Dimwits.

All Scrolls have a 30 second Scroll Retention time after opening/reading to use the effects provided by the Scroll, and then the benefits of the Scroll are lost.

At Level 1 a Character can Scribe 3 Scrolls per day.

Details

When it comes to magic scrolls, the pen kicks the tar feathers out of a sword.

Level 2

The Character can now Scribe 6 Scrolls per day.

Level 3

The Scribe checks and confirms he does indeed know all of the Magic Symbols to make the necessary Magic Phrase (those being Air, Confusion, Negate and Mystic Knowledge).

The Bishop knows the Prayer Winds of Confusion at a Lv3 strength, and she has 24 Prayers in her Prayer Cycle.
The Bishop lays a hand on the Scribes shoulder and keeps it there for the entirety of the creation process.

The Scribe starts to daw out the runes needed, in the proper colour desiginated by the type of Magic being used, on proper Scroll material (see rules in the Enchantment section).

At the completion of the 6th and final Magic Symbol the Scribe must announce "Create Holy Scroll of Winds of Confusion", and has spent one of his uses for Scribe Scroll for the day.

The Bishop at the completion of the Scroll making will have to spend 5 Prayer Slots out of her Prayer Cycle (2 for Winds of Confusion Prayer itself, and 3 more for the Level 3 of the Prayers strength).

to serve me ( name of Character ) as your lord and master!"
