Prophecy True Mage Cheat Sheet

Build The Caster:

1) Find Power Level
PL = END+1D (PM 30; The Lexicon Sheet / Mage Power Levels)
2) Find Stage Count
PL /10, round down. (PM 32; Starting Spells)
3) Choose Spells
Each Stage allows you 1 Stage of spells. Spell choice is still affected by prerequisites. Each has a
skill of INT+1D.
Magic in Action
1) Pick a spell to cast
2) Cast the spell
If you are 50 or less you must cast from a scroll and it is easy to interrupt you.
Also you make a roll against your skill in this spell just as a skill.
You pay 1D per stage in Power Points (equals your PL; this can also pull from END and LIF –
PM 33; Power to Cast)
3) Let time pass
1 Second per Stage (equates to 1 round per Stage) modified by skill (PM 33; Concentration &
Effort chart)
Each stage requires another roll of the spell skill. (PM 33; Concentration, ¶2)
4) Let it loose or compound? <aka….AGAIN!>
When the time passes you can choose to compound a spell for the cost of 1 Second/Round.
Each compounding gives 1D to the effect, as well as cost 1D more power. If interrupted, the
spell is lost as normal.
5) Effect
The spell occurs!
