[QUOTE="Skade, post: 1094646, member: 3320"] It may as well be hardwired in. The only real threats are generally the players, and their elder family members. Even if that were not true, their egos tell them it is. How much is your gamemaster willing to modify, or extend the system? If you are looking ways to really fill up on abilities my suggestion is to go the Trump/Sorcery route. Buff up on Psyche as much as you think you can get away with, with 1-5 in each of the other attributes (to be better than a standard Amberite), and get Advanced Trump and Sorcery. Now what I did was to combine the two, so that racks were no longer necessary if I could draw a trump of the spell and it's target. As an example, say I knew that I might want to fly at some point, I would create a Trump card of myself flying. Or say I wanted it to rain in Toledo, I would draw that, allowing myself to cast spells through Trumps just as if I had travelled there. This concept was actually presented to Steve Wujick (the creator of the game) and he loved it. He ran a little session at AggieCon a few years back. [/QUOTE]
