Magic of the Inner Spheres

RPG Superstar 2013 Top 16

Please check out 'Magic of the Inner Spheres' in Signs and Portents #73, page 66. The article describes a set of magical items and spells originating from, you guessed it, the inner spheres.

Let me know what you think!

Neat stuff. I like the Monk sash particularly.

The flavor behind the various combination spells (black ice, winds of death, etc) is pretty awesome, and I like the flavor of the medallion of winds (having it require only a single hand to be occupied, allowing someone to fight or cast spells one-handed, might be a nice upgraded version...).

One thing I'd probably consider changing is the rune of positive energy. It's only usable once / day, so a Disrupt Undead effect is pretty weak for that. I'd up it to a Cure Light Wounds (CL 1), or come up with some other way to make it a little more buff (perhaps a double-strength Disrupt Undead that inflicts 2d6 damage?).

Thank you,

The Monk Sash reused mechanics that I created in response to this thread. I wrote an article for them, sent it off to Mongoose but it got bumped at the very last minute and has been MIA ever since.

A Maximized Disrupt Undead is a good replacement, but the runes are intended as combinations and empowering the single uses might diminish the intended design, but it is your game.

Small bump so that everyone can get their free copy and can get some Superstar inspiration.
