Subject: House Rules/Debate for designing new powers for Phys. Ads.
Date: Mon, 16 Sep 1996 13:48:32 -0500 (CDT)
Greetings to all
Please Consider For Discussion
The one thing that I have a gripe about P.A.'s is that there is
no mechanism in either the Grimmy or Awakenings on how to design new
powers for P.A.'s. Awakenings is quite clear that "as magic becomes more
understood new P.A. powers arise." (sorry don't have the exact pg#).
The Grimmy has a well established procedure for designing new
spells. I wonder if anyone has desinged a system to allow players to
design new powers for the Phys Ads.
I suppose that one could debate that Phys Ads don't have enough
access to the astral/metaplanes to generate enough "energy" to create a
new power.
I would argue that there should be a way for a Phys Ad to create
a new ability. Then it just becomes a matter of specific rules.
