New Schools of Magic....
« on: January 23, 2025, 12:42:49 PM »
In Express Additions #3 I was already planning on adidng the Shadowkin....

I was  originally thinking of making him be from the  School of Mysticism, when I had  a thought.....

I was already wanting to add an Astrologer type spell user and did not feel that his spells truly suited any other  School, but didn't want to add just a single School.... (it  would make  my Wheel of Magic lopsided hehe)

Then  this morning, I had a  thought, If I  put Astromancy (for the Astrologer) between Spiritism and Divinism, then I could puta new School between Diabolism and Mysticism. I could call it Umbramancy

Astromancy = magic involving the heavens and  the stars and such
Umbramancy = magic involving darkness and shadows... (and I have  some neat spell ideas for it...)

Of course, this  will require 3 new Vocational Kits (which will not be released until  until EA#4) along with 48 new spells (plus  the 12 fromthe  Shadowkin for 60 spells overall....

I have also added Notes to the Mage Hunter and Shadowkin that they could also be placed under other Schools of Magic if a  GM desires (Mage Hunter could be Sorcery, Magery, or Wizardry depending on how he  is defined)
