death gate cycle

[Banshee16]

the way I wanted to do it was create the universe especially the magic system and create campaigns from there. i figured out a lot of the stuff already but the rune magic system is the most difficult. I'm going to work with the eberron dragonmark system for the patryn magic. sartan magic will be more difficult. does anyone know the names of the houses of magic for the mencsh?

If you check out the Burok Torn supplement from Sword & Sorcery Studios, they have two prestige classes...Tatoo Mage and Rune Adept that could actually be mined for inspiration on how to create Sartan and Patry magic. I've actually thought of that myself.

The Tatoo Mage progresses slower in spellcasting, but gets tatoos that give him innate abilities, and the more tatoos he has, the higher his natural AC bonus goes. Some of that I bet would work with Patryns.

Similar for the Rune Adepts, who paint their spells in the air when they cast them, can store them as floating runes around their bodies that they activate to cast the spells, etc.
