[QUOTE="reapersaurus, post: 816348, member: 1194"] Shalimar - what's a mono-whip? That's funny, that you're dropping the Geasa. I read about it, and am VERY interested in taking one. :D I have seen some examples that people have used, and it DOES seem like pretty much a benefit for no drawback. [size=1]Here's an example(s): * - Geas (Involuntary, to offset 1 Magic lost due to cyberware): cord necklace w/ wooden ziggurat (flat) medallion stained with the blood of a fallen enemy Rationales When Joaquin was a boy, Q helped him find the medallion that he now wears. It was an emotional placebo meant to help catalyze the growth of the man Loco became. When Loco lost his magic point getting his Smartlink installed, the medallion became necessary for his protective powers of Mystic Armor and Pain Resistance. His Geasa His Voluntary Incantation Geas Etienne has taken the voluntary geas Incantation to reduce the cost of his Magical Powers. This allows him to purchase the power at 75% of the cost. If he does not use Incantation, he can not cast spells or conjure Spirits. His incantation consists of a bass, ritualistic chant. His Involuntary Talisman Geas Etienne has taken the Talisman involuntary geas to offset the Magic point lost due to the reduction in his Essence for taking cyberware. Etienne's talisman is an arm brace that rests high on his right arm *snip* etc[/size] Duoane - is there a way I can take a Geasa, make it a cost, but not a crippling one? Phys-ads need all the magic they can get, in my mind - they aren't exactly overpowering, and it doesn't seem like there's a ton of rules which apply to them (most of the magic rules I read that benefit Awakened PC's don't apply to adepts). And I'm trying to post the info on Inue when I get the chance (background, etc). I'd really like him to be trying to get in touch with the Invisible Ones (Path of the Adept : Invisible Way) I'll mention more about them later - I think it would be neat if there was a small # of ex-corp ninja assassins that left the corp over the years - they are the few that ascended past the brainwashing and systematic insistence on "the Good of the Corporation" - and struck out on their own in the big, scary, unclean, unorganized, sleep-where-you-drop World.
