Fateforge: Spellcaster's Guide (d20)
"Fateforge¸ Epic tales in the world of Eana for 5th Edition. A love letter to Sword & Sorcery and the world's greatest RPG¸ from the team behind Shadows of Esteren¸ the most awarded French RPG."
The Spellcaster's Guide is the companion of the Player's Guide. It details magic in the world of Eana.
- Schools of magic. Not all forms of magic can be practiced freely. Some schools¸ in particular the mind-bending enchantment school¸ are often illegal.
- Geomagic. Eana's magic is changeable¸ manifesting through effects that affect entire areas and alter the abilities of spellcasters. In the Spellcaster's Guide¸ you will find five of the sixteen geomagics presented in Grimoire. Each one is associated with a particular atmosphere through a modular icon¸ making these phenomena an active part of the story you want to tell.
- Corruption. Canker is one of the greatest enemies adventurers will have to fight. It grows and thrives in the Netherworld¸ and spreads to Eana through varied means and avenues. Contact with the fluids of Cankerous creatures or the use of corrupt spells can result in corruption¸ leading to the slow decay of the victim's body and mind¸ though with the benefit of dreadful powers¸ including unique feats. The complete effects and related rules are covered in Grimoire¸ which details the fearsome¸ unnatural boons and drawbacks resulting from permanent corruption.
- Spell Compendium. Discover a new way to use the spell compendium through the modular system¸ which lets you fine-tune the inner workings of magic in accordance with what would be suited to your campaign¸ or even to a particular one of its locations or scenarios. This section provides a list of several spells¸ which include exclusive options and are all beautifully presented in the manner of illuminated medieval manuscripts.
- Appendices. The Spellcaster's Guide's appendices include: a glossary of the key notions and concepts of supernatural elements in the world of Eana; a panorama of the various rules available throughout Adventurers and Grimoire¸ sorted by atmosphere (gritty¸ dark fantasy¸ mystery¸ etc.); and a catalog of common potions.
