RPG Basics: Magic

by The RPG Guy

Watch the video below!

The RPG Basics continue with…

Magic.

It’s chaotic in nature and no one quite knows what it is; however, in some cases it can really add a new dimension (literally) to your game world.

So, how do you add it to your game? Well, to find out, please make sure to…

 

 

Check out this video on 10 Tips for using Magic in your RPG:

Recap:

  1. Rarity - Is everyone magical?
  2. How do you use it? - Is there such thing as “spells?” Do you need to use “Magic Points?” Must you speak or use a wand?
  3. Strength - How strong is it?
  4. Location - Are there some places where magic is more prevalent?
  5. Is there good or bad magic? - Perhaps some spells are considered evil… or come from an evil source.
  6. Types - Necromancy, Time… Are there different types?
  7. Consequences - Critical Failure and Success – what happens?
  8. Enhancements/ Limitations - What things can magic not do? Can certain things improve magic?
  9. Origin - Does magic live in the physical realm? Do entities or things give magic? Was there always magic?
  10. Magic and Technology - Are they polar opposites? Can it work together?
