Heroic Paths - Replacement for Magic Equipment... and High Level Magic.

[JonathonWilder]

Heroic Paths are something each player may choose, and cannot change, when first creating their character. Somewhat similar in concept to Bloodlines, this is considered overall to be a replacement of magic items, weapons, and armour as well as high magic use. It is something that I feel helps allow all characters to have power without having to be a spellcaster, and prevents the problem of having everyone be a walking armory.

I should note, it is more a replacement for magical weapons and armour. The setting itself is low magic, which is why I offered that the Heroic Paths offer some replacement for high level magic.

This. . . Is interesting. Seems pretty powerful, however I'd wager it's less of a game breaker than just everyone a Mythic Tier.

For a Low Magic campaign it's wonderful though.

I think so as well and maybe instead of converting Feat Based Casting from Midnight, I can just use the Spheres of Power.
