* Each Spell has a single effect (i.e.-DAMAGE, or Alarm, or Armor, or Light). This is at the Base Skill Roll, if it does Damage it starts at 1d6, it has No Range and costs 1 Fatigue Point (or END). | |||
* Every Effect you add to it (i.e.- Range, +1d6 Damage, Effects Multiple Objects, Persistent, etc.) means -1 to the Skill Roll, +1 Fatigue Cost. | |||
* This stacks, so an Explosive Fireball would cost for Ranged, Explosive, and for every Die higher than 1. If you want more than 1 Damage Causing Spell you would have to buy more Spells with different Effects, such as Fire or Lightning, or Poison Bugs. | |||
* Minor Spells or Cantrips would just cost 1. | |||
* Summoning a Massive Fire Elemental would just be Summon Elemental (Base) -- Does Damage, Does +5d6 Damage, Independant, Persistent, Ranged, Intelligent (Animal). So it would be cast at -10 to the Skill Roll and +10 Fatigue Points. This is if you are casting flat-footed. If you had an Extra Skill Fire School), and a Wand of Summoning Fire Elementals (+1), and knew a Ritual to Help Summon Elementals (adds a minute to Casting Time), Then each of these would ADD +1 to you Skill Roll to offset All the minuses. | |||
