It basically means that you can do evocations that are more than just "magic shotgun" or "magic bulldozer."

DFRPG / Re: Which Template for an Item of Power empowered character?
« on: June 29, 2014, 04:22:25 AM »
I agree. Make your own or skip the template altogether. Your Story pretty explicitly says the templates in the book are just suggestions.

I think compels would be able to solve this.

I think of metal and earth as being combination elements.
Metal is earth that has been purified by fire.
Wood is earth that has been infused with water. Or water that has been fortified by earth.
In the Avatar-verse, metalbending is a special subset of earthbending, and I think there was a tribe of people who controlled plants via waterbending.

DFRPG / Re: Water spirits vs moving waters effect on magic.
« on: June 17, 2014, 07:23:09 AM »
In Codex Alera they frequently use fire/heat to prevent watercrafters from calling on their furies. So fire/heat/dryness would be one way to counter water magic/beings. I'd also imagine that running water wouldn't really negatively affect a water creature. If anything, rain or a spray from a hose might be healing for the water spirit, like some Mephits in D&D that get fast healing when exposed to their element.

Random thought about the human sacrifices thing...what if the number of sacrifices you had to make to get another complexity boost went up the table? So 1 sacrifice for +2, 2 for +4, etc.?

Or what about making another character who had some enchanted items that were magic clothing he made?

I'm not sure about Derek's Needle and Thread stunt. Do you really think that character will be doing a lot of sewing? Also, maybe Entropic touch could give that effect to his Craftsmanship?

I'm not super familiar with FAE, but it seems like the Dresdenverse has some pretty flashy things in it. Harry did once ride a zombie t-rex down the street. Also...Thomas.

Perhaps instead Rote Mastery could give you 2 mild consequences that could only be used for absorbing the stress of rote spells?
And I kind of think Arcane Intellect could give 2 more rotes instead of one.
What about being able to use Evothaum but only when using rotes?

If someone knew how fire and police departments were organized we could add that too.
A car -> Squad? -> Precinct?
Ladder? -> Fire House?

Sure!
I'd maybe put the different military units in there.
4 = adventuring party
8 = adventuring party and allies, pack of wolves
16 = a squad, a SWAT team
Platoon, street gang
Company,
Battalion
Regiment
That's what I've got right now.

I must've missed the line about thaumaturgy the first time I read it.
Perhaps in the spirit of Fate, the groups could have descriptive names as well numbers?

I think this is an awesome idea. Could the area chart also incorporate things like exceptionally large creatures and vehicles?
Evocation and thaumaturgy could have their own powers.
Taking sponsor debt to move down the area/group tables?
