Skill Rules & Full Description
Spell Verbal: "I Pierce the Veil of Force and Energy to ...Transfer Magic Power"
Cost: 8 Power Points • Duration: Instant
- This spell will transfer Power Points from the caster to the target character. Any number of power points up to the casters current number of Power Points can be transferred. The caster needs to spend the 8 Power Points to cast the spell, plus the amount of Power Points being transferred. The caster should suffix the spells verbal with amount of Power Points they are transferring. For example, “I Pierce the Veil of Force and Energy to Transfer Magic Power...20 Power Points.” The caster would lose a total of 28 Power Points and the target would gain 20 Power Points.
- The actual transfer happens after the spell hits, so if a character where to invoke an absorption spell or effect, they will only get the 8 Power Points of the spell and the caster would only lose the power to cast the spell, not the amount they intended to transfer. However, if the caster throws the spell and it hits an unintended target, that character would gain the Power Points stated when cast. If the packet hits an invalid target like a door, floor, rock, etc. (ie not a character), then no power is transferred.
- The caster cannot transfer more power than they have; trying to do so means the spell fails and the Power Points used to cast the spell are expended.
