Editing The End of the Hantei Magic

[[The_End_of_the_Hantei | Back to Main]]

==Casting Spells==

To cast a spell you must have the scroll in hand or you are -5 to the skill roll. 

You may cast a number of spells of a particular element each ''day'' equal to your skill with that element divided by 5 without penalty. Further spells are stressful and are cast with a cumulative -1 to the skill roll and causes a loss of 1 HP. Treat all HP lost this way as a single wound.

You may recover spell slots with the Meditation skill.

'''Raises'''

To declare a raise you lower your casting skill by 2 ''before'' casting. You may only declare a number of raises equal to your Skill/5. 

'''Affinity/Deficiency'''

You treat your Rank as 1 higher for learning and casting spells of your Affinity and 1 lower for your Deficiency. 

'''School Rank'''

Your Rank determines the highest Mastery level of spells you may learn and cast. School rank is increased by Training during the Winter Phase (or with Bonus Points from Glory) just like how Bushi Techniques are gained and each rank has prerequisites. See the Techniques page.
