Description
“…”
Mages are “magic” users, with one of three power sources. They channel their power source through themselves (as opposed to an external construct, like Sages), releasing it in just the right way.
Arcane
Uses arcane power. Controller secondary.
Technology
Uses implants to ‘hack’ things. Defender secondary.
Divine
By the power of Kord, I smite thee! Leader secondary.
Class Mechanic
When you create your mage choose a tradition, or way your character learned to channel their power source. This choice effects some of the secondary things powers do.
Academic
An academic mage uses thier power source through study and/or apprenticeship. They tend to be more controlled in their usage of power, and therefore, their powers tend to always have at least some effect.
If you chose this Tradition, you gain the Lessons Learned power.
Birthright
Mages who earn their power source through thier heritage or bloodline tend to be more in tune with thier power source and are often frightening to behold. Some, whose bloodlines include dragons or other magical beasts can take on physical aspects of their ancestors. These mages exude an aura of power that can terrify or frighten even the most stalwart of fighters.
If you chose this Tradition, you gain the Overwhelming Presence power.
Channeling your inner power, you project an aura of ancient and overwhelming power, kowtowing your enemies.
Incidental Fear Close burst: 3
Recharge: The target is no longer staggered.
Effect: The target is staggered.
Self Taught
Rare individuals are able to learn how to channel a power source without any guidance. These mages tend to be more chaotic in thier application of power, and as such, have wildly varying effects at times.
If you chose this Tradition, you gain the Chaotic Charge power.
Eschewing finess, you pour as much additional power into you attack as you can muster, unsure of the results.
