The Power's Clow effect is up. Does she pull her own weight?

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
That's a bit extreme. I'd say it doubles the modifier at most, or that it adds a circumstantial Strength bonus equal to the cardcaptor's level or something.

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
Now do you see the problem. I don't want to make her too weak (Bull's Strength) or too strong (What she currently has), so what do I do?
EDIT: Something I forgot to note is each card is supposed to have a utilitarian purpose, which is why I doubled the Strength score, instead of just the modifier.Last edited by Getsugaru; 2013-07-10 at 02:44 PM.

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
Mayhaps something like "The character has (n) Strength for the purposes of carrying capacity and STR checks"?

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
...Or how about "The Power increases the user's Strength score by 2 times the user's class level"?

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
Great. Also, I've made some headway into the Jump, and was wondering if you had an idea about its Sakura card power. Beta version is up!

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
That seems about fine. As for the Sakura power...I don't know, a range increase?

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
Time is up! and here's an explanation of its Sakura Card Power:
SpoilerThe Sakura Card effect of the Time was inspired by a psionic trick invented by Tleilaxu_Ghola. The trick in question is known as the Save Game Trick, and can be found on Kalaska'Agathas's "Brainstorm for Psionic Tricks, Tactics, and Combos Handbook". Here's the abstract of the trick. "With this trick one is able to create "save" game points, with a minimal cost of 15 XP for psionic contingency. The trick allows one to adventure for a day and then reload the save game point if something went awry." Basically, the Time is able to enact this trick with a few changes:- You can revert back time any amount up to 24 hours.
- Any Spell slots spent remain spent.
- There is a chance that you'll remember what happened, in which case you may end up with an unfair advantage.
If this is overpowered, please tell me and help me fix it to be more fair.Incarnum: VoP's best (and possibly only) friend.

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
It's probably OP, but there's really no way for Time to be balanced AND faithful, so....screw it.

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
Agreed. Also, let us Return to the thread once again to see the Return's addition. [/bad_puns] Currently trying to figure out the Sakura ability, with my current idea being the user can see into the past while remaining in the present (so as to know where traps are, etc., etc.[need help with the etc.]), but requires putting strain on the body. Need help!

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
Sweet is fine. As for Return, I'm not exactly sure where the problem is. You basically want them to see the past while still controlling and moving their body in the present, instead of effectively astral-projecting?

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
Yep, only I don't know what other types of benefits seeing the past like that will grant. The Return is said to be as powerful as the Time, so I want to give it a good ability to represent this...

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
Hey guys. Sorry for not adding anything new today; been busy today. Anyways, I've got a problem: The Maze. I started making it yesterday, but have run into the OP problem. As you know, the Maze makes an interdimensional pocket with a maze inside. Now that just screams "Maze", as in the 8th level spell, which is precisely the problem. It would be horribly broken to give a character of 1st-10th level access to an 8th level spell, so...any ideas?

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
Attach a flavorful condition such as how it's weak to basically any other magic, such as blasting down walls being entirely legitimate and effectual?

Okay. So what would be an acceptable DC for "breaking your way out"?

Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor
With how much rain we've been getting up here lately, I'd have to be MAD to not give the Rain her abilities today. Go play in the rain! Also looking for ideas for Sakura Card abilities for Rain. Anyone got any?
