|
|
Two broad categories of magic exist in \cf : ``\wizardry '' and |
| 9 |
|
|
``\divinemagic ''. The fundamental difference between the two comes |
| 10 |
|
|
down to the source that powers the magic of each. |
| 11 |
|
|
In \divinemagic\ the practitioners, ``priests'', do not use their own power |
| 12 |
|
|
but rather channel power from divine entities (``gods''). They utilize |
| 13 |
|
|
various ``prayers\index{prayers}'' to cast their magic and grace is the measure |
| 14 |
|
|
of how much magic the priest may channel. The higher the |
| 15 |
|
|
level of the priest and the better his wisdom and power, the more |
| 16 |
|
|
grace the priest will have in the eyes of his god. |
| 17 |
|
|
In the practice of \wizardry\ a ``wizard'' calls upon his own lifeforce |
| 18 |
|
|
(or ``mana'') to power his arcane \incantation s.\index{\incantation s} Mana |
| 19 |
|
|
is based on of the wizard's innate power but may be increased through |
| 20 |
|
|
his skill in \wizardry . |
| 21 |
|
|
|
| 22 |
|
|
The scope and sphere of these two magics are different. Through the use of |
| 23 |
|
|
\divinemagic\ the priest has access to powerful spells\footnote{ A ``spell'' |
| 24 |
|
|
is a common name referring to both prayers and \incantation s.\index{spells}} |
| 25 |
|
|
of protection, |
| 26 |
|
|
healing, and of slaying {\em unholy} creatures. If the multiple gods |
| 27 |
|
|
option is used\footnote{this is the default}, the god a priest worships |
| 28 |
|
|
will have other impacts on the priest's magic and abilities (see section |
| 29 |
|
|
\ref{sec:multigod}). |
| 30 |
|
|
In contrast, \wizardry\ is more oriented towards the harnessing of elemental |
| 31 |
|
|
forces of creation, alteration and |
| 32 |
|
|
destruction. There are two minor variants of \wizardry : alchemy (section |
| 33 |
|
|
\ref{sec:alchemy}) and rune magic (section \ref{sec:rune}). |
| 34 |
|
|
|
| 35 |
|
|
Each form of magic is orthogonal to the other. In some {\em no magic} |
| 36 |
|
|
areas, the wizard is blocked from accessing his store of mana, but the |
| 37 |
|
|
priest may operate his magic normally. Similarly, there are {\em unholy} |
| 38 |
|
|
areas in which the priest loses his contact with his god and cannot |
| 39 |
|
|
cast magic; in unholy areas the wizard is unhindered. Of course, no |
| 40 |
|
|
magic and unholy areas can sometimes coincide. |
| 41 |
|
|
|
| 42 |
|
|
In addition, wizards |
| 43 |
|
|
have the handicap that if they are encumbered with 'stuff', they are |
| 44 |
|
|
less effective at \incantation s. Heavy weapons and |
| 45 |
|
|
heavy armour are the main cause spell-failures. See the section |
| 46 |
|
|
on encumbrance\index{encumbrance} (section \ref{sec:encumberance}) for details. |
| 47 |
|
|
Weapons and armour have no effect on the practice of \divinemagic\ |
| 48 |
|
|
but grace regenerates slower than mana, and the amount of grace |
| 49 |
|
|
that a priest possesses helps to determine the success of their |
| 50 |
|
|
prayers. |
| 51 |
|
|
|
| 52 |
|
|
\section{Learning spells}\label{sec:spell_learn} |
| 53 |
|
|
\index{spells, how to learn} |
| 54 |
|
|
|
| 55 |
|
|
Both types of spells may be learned by reading books (see section |
| 56 |
|
|
\ref{sec:items}). |
| 57 |
|
|
The overall chance of learning a spell uses the following formula \\ |
| 58 |
|
|
\begin{center} |
| 59 |
|
|
\% chance to learn $=$ (base chance $+$ (2$\times${\tt level}))/1.5 \\ |
| 60 |
|
|
\end{center} |
| 61 |
|
|
The base chance that a prayer/\incantation\ will be learnt is based on WIS/INT |
| 62 |
|
|
respectively. Look at table \ref{tab:pri_eff} to find your {\em base} |
| 63 |
|
|
chance in the learn\% column. If you are attempting to learn a {\em prayer}, |
| 64 |
|
|
you would use your WIS stat to find the base chance. Likewise, the {\tt level} |
| 65 |
|
|
used in the formula is related to the type of spell. If you are attempting |
| 66 |
|
|
to learn an \incantation , the value of level to use is your \mage\ experience |
| 67 |
|
|
level (and you use the \priest\ experience level for learning prayers). |
| 68 |
|
|
Once your chance to learn a spell exceeds 100%, you always suceed in |
| 69 |
|
|
all attempts to learn spells. |

\section{Magic paths} \label{sec:magicpath} |
| 73 |
|
|
\index{magic, paths} |
| 74 |
|
|
|
| 75 |
|
|
Long ago a number of archmages discovered patterns in the web that spells |
| 76 |
|
|
weave in the aether. They found that some spells had structural similarities |
| 77 |
|
|
to others and some of the mages took to studying particular groups of spells. |
| 78 |
|
|
These mages found that by molding their thought patterns to match the patterns |
| 79 |
|
|
of the spells they could better utilize all the spells of the group. Because |
| 80 |
|
|
of their disciplined approach, the mages were described as following spell |
| 81 |
|
|
Paths. As they attuned themselves to particular spell Paths they found that |
| 82 |
|
|
they would become repelled from others, and in some cases found they were |
| 83 |
|
|
denied any access to some paths. The legacy of these mages remains in some |
| 84 |
|
|
of the magical items to be found around the world. Use of these ``attuned'' |
| 85 |
|
|
items will strongly effect the quality of the \incantation s and prayers cast by |
| 86 |
|
|
the magician. See section \ref{sec:multigod} to see how the worship of |
| 87 |
|
|
a god might effect the spell casting of the magician. |
| 88 |
|
|
|
| 89 |
|
|
|
| 90 |
|
|
\subsubsection{Technical details} |
| 91 |
|
|
|
| 92 |
|
|
The Paths themselves are given in table \ref{tab:spath}. |
| 93 |
|
|
|
| 94 |
|
|
A character (or NPC) that is attuned to a Path can cast \incantation s/prayers from that |
| 95 |
|
|
Path at 80\% of the mana/grace cost and in addition receives duration/damage |
| 96 |
|
|
bonuses as if the caster were five levels higher. A person that is repelled |
| 97 |
|
|
from a Path casts \incantation s/prayers from that Path |
| 98 |
|
|
at 125\% of the mana/grace cost and receives duration/damage bonuses as if |
| 99 |
|
|
the caster were five levels lower (minimum of first level). |
| 100 |
|
|
The casting time is also modified by 80\% and 125\% respectively. |
| 101 |
|
|
If a wizard or priest is denied access to a Path they cannot cast any spells from it. |
| 102 |
|

Paths are quite powerful; they don't come cheaply. Most magical items |
| 119 |
|
|
with path\_attuned attributes will have path\_repelled and path\_denied |
| 120 |
|
|
attributes as well, to balance them out. |
| 121 |
|
|
% The same goes for worshiping |
| 122 |
|
|
% gods; most gods will prevent you from casting one or more paths of magic. |

\section{Multiple gods} \label{sec:multigod} |

|
\index{cults}\index{altars}\index{gods}\index{\divinemagic\} |
| 126 |
|
|
\index{magic, gods} |
| 127 |
|
|
|
| 128 |
|
|
Gods in \cf\ are not omnipotent beings. Each is thought of possessing |
| 129 |
|
|
a certain sphere of influence, indeed, some philosophers have thought |
| 130 |
|
|
that the gods might spring from the same mystical patterns that form |
| 131 |
|
|
the spell Paths. Certainly it appears that each of the gods embodies |
| 132 |
|
|
one or more of these Paths (but not all of them!!). Because the gods |
| 133 |
|
|
are not omnipotent, we often speak of their religions as being 'cults'. |
| 134 |
|
|
|
| 135 |
|
|
Under the multigod option, priests are allowed |
| 136 |
|
|
to select from an array of different gods. Worship of each god is unique, |
| 137 |
|
|
and brings differing capabilities to the priest. |
| 138 |
|
|
See appendix \ref{app:gods} for a listing of the gods and some of the |
| 139 |
|
|
attributes/effects of worshiping of these cults. |
| 140 |
|
|
|
| 141 |
|
|
|
| 142 |

|
\subsection{Joining a cult} |
| 143 |
|
|
\index{gods, worship}\index{cults} |
| 144 |
|
|
|
| 145 |
|
|
Praying at {\em aligned} altars\inputimage{altar}\ is the usual way |
| 146 |
|
|
in which a priest interacts |
| 147 |
|
|
with their god/cult. Aligned altars are identified by their name (e.g. |
| 148 |
|
|
altar of $<$god's name$>$) and may be found in various maps all over the |
| 149 |
|
|
world of \cf . |
| 150 |
|
|
When a player prays over an aligned altar, one of three things may happen based |
| 151 |
|
|
on the players currently worshiped god: |
| 152 |
|
|
\begin{quote} |
| 153 |
|
|
|
| 154 |
|
|
(1) {\bf "Unaligned" player prays over an altar} $-$ |
| 155 |
|
|
results in that player |
| 156 |
|
|
becoming a worshiper of the god the altar is dedicated to. |
| 157 |
|
|
|
| 158 |
|
|
(2) {\bf Player prays over their god's altar} $-$ |
| 159 |
|
|
results in faster grace |
| 160 |
|
|
regeneration. In addition, player may pray to gain up to twice their |
| 161 |
|
|
normal amount of grace. Also, from time to time your god might |
| 162 |
|
|
give you information, blessings, or something really good; it depends |
| 163 |
|
|
on your WIS, POW and \priest\ experience. |
| 164 |
|
|
|
| 165 |
|
|
(3) {\bf Player prays over alien god's altar} $-$ |
| 166 |
|
|
results in punishment |
| 167 |
|
|
of the player (generally they lose some of their \priest\ experience). |
| 168 |
|
|
This action {\em can} result in the defection of the player to the alien |
| 169 |
|
|
god's cult. |
| 170 |
|
|
\end{quote} |
| 171 |
|
|
Note that once a player has joined a cult, it is impossible to go back |
| 172 |
|
|
to being ``unaligned'' to any god. |
| 173 |
|
|
|
| 174 |
|
|
|
| 175 |
|
|
\subsubsection{Summary of benefits/penalties for joining} |
| 176 |
|
|
|
| 177 |
|
|
The following things happen when a worshiper joins a god's cult: |
| 178 |
|
|
\begin{quote} |
| 179 |
|
|
|
| 180 |
|
|
- the worshiper gains access to the special flavor of magic belonging |
| 181 |
|
|
to the cult (see table \ref{tab:priest_prayer}). |
| 182 |
|
|
|
| 183 |
|
|
- the ability to cast magic is altered to reflect the powers |
| 184 |
|
|
of the worshiper's god. Some spells will be easier to cast; others |
| 185 |
|
|
will be more difficult, and some spell Paths will be forbidden. |
| 186 |
|
|
It is impossible to regain forbidden spells by any means except |
| 187 |
|
|
leaving the cult. |
| 188 |
|
|
|
| 189 |
|
|
- the worshiper becomes protected and/or vulnerable to certain attacks. |
| 190 |
|
|
\end{quote} |
| 191 |
|
|
Note that a player can belong to only {\em one} cult at any one time. |

\subsection{Example god} |
| 252 |
|
|
|
| 253 |
|
|
Lets create an example god$-$the ``god of the undead''. If you worship |
| 254 |
|
|
the god of the undead, don't expect to be able to gain priest |
| 255 |
|
|
experience\footnote{i.e. experience for the {\tt wisdom} experience category} |
| 256 |
|
|
for killing the undead! But you might gain, as a priest of the |
| 257 |
|
|
undead, greater powers of commanding undead, and experience for |
| 258 |
|
|
killing certain (living) creatures that serve an enemy god. Each priest |
| 259 |
|
|
takes on a portion of the ``aura'' of their god; this means that our |
| 260 |
|
|
priest will probably become protected to life-damaging magic like draining |
| 261 |
|
|
and death, while conversely becoming more vulnerable to fire. Such a |
| 262 |
|
|
priest, because their god's domain does not include the living, probably wont be |
| 263 |
|
|
capable of healing either. |

\section{Alchemy} \label{sec:alchemy} |

\index{alchemy}\index{magic, alchemy}\index{\wizardry\} |
| 268 |
|
|
|
| 269 |
|
|
Alchemy is a sub-type of \wizardry . Being an alchemist is easy; |
| 270 |
|
|
you only need satisfy the following: |
| 271 |
|
|
\begin{quote} |
| 272 |
|
|
1) be able to cast the \alchemy\ spell. \\ |
| 273 |
|
|
2) have access to a cauldron\inputimage{cauldron}. \\ |
| 274 |
|
|
3) have some ingredients. |
| 275 |
|
|
\end{quote} |
| 276 |
|
|
To create something put ingredients in the cauldron, then |
| 277 |
|
|
cast the '\alchemy ' \incantation . You might make something :). |
| 278 |
|
|
Be warned though! backfire effects are possible, especially if you |
| 279 |
|
|
throw a lot of stuff in the pot. In fact, the more junk which is |
| 280 |
|
|
in the cauldron, the |
| 281 |
|
|
{\em worse} any potential backfire is likely to be. Backfire generally |
| 282 |
|
|
occurs when you get the ingredients wrong but low-level alchemists |
| 283 |
|
|
attempting very difficult (4$+$ ingredient) formulae may have |
| 284 |
|
|
problems too! |
| 285 |
|
|
|
| 286 |
|
|
In order to get better at making stuff, you will need to learn the |
| 287 |
|
|
{\tt alchemy} {\em skill}. Books found in shops (and elsewhere) will give you |
| 288 |
|
|
formulae for making stuff. There is no hard limit on the number of |
| 289 |
|
|
formulae which might make something (the code is pretty flexible), |
| 290 |
|
|
so you can always {\em experiment} on your own, but this will be dangerous! |

Runes are another special form of \wizardry ; essentially runes are |
| 297 |
|
|
magical inscriptions on the dungeon floor which cast a spell (or |
| 298 |
|
|
``detonate'') when something steps on them. Flying |
| 299 |

objects don't detonate runes. Beware! Runes are invisible |

most of the time! |

\subsubsection{Partial Visibility of Runes} |

|
|
Your runes will be partially invisible. That is, they'll be visible |
| 341 |
|
|
only part of the time. They have a 1/(your {\tt level}/2) chance of being |
| 342 |
|
|
visible in any given round, so the higher your level, the better hidden |
| 343 |
|
|
the runes you make are. |

\subsubsection{Restrictions on runes:} |
| 385 |
|
|
|
| 386 |
|

You may not place runes underneath monsters or other players. You |

|
|
attempt to do the latter strengthens the pre-existing rune. |
