Dangermouse Posted December 25, 2022 Report Share Posted December 25, 2022 (edited) Should this disadvantage only be available where the Magic advantage has been taken (otherwise its an easy "dump stat")? If taken by a Demi-Monde, would it increase the cost of the Thematic Powers by 1 Luck Point?

Silverfoxdmt73 Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 I'd certainly agree with the first point. And likely the second too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynne H Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 The simplest answer is that yes, it should only be taken by someone with the Magical advantage or, as you say, it could be open to player abuse. Having said that, if your player's arc for their character means they intend to learn magic later (i.e., by saving up their development points to buy the Magical advantage) then you could let them take Magic is Exhausting pre-emptively because it works in story terms - perhaps that's why it takes them longer than everyone else to learn how to cast spells. However, if the player keeps putting off buying Magical, the GM should feel free to have them remove Magic is Exhausting as their disadvantage and pick another one that does have an in-game impact. As the disadvantage is linked to spellcasting, demi-monde characters shouldn't really be able to take it - after all, they don't cast spells! However, if you want to tweak it so that in your game it has the effect you describe, that's entirely up to you! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
