Bioshock Plasmid/Vigor Model
« on: April 10, 2013, 03:33:26 AM »
Not sure if anyone is familiar with the game but the basic concept is evocation. However the character needs to replenish his supply of "magic use" I was thinking of modeling this as a separate stress track, having different effects cost more stress and(similar to the ginger track) needing something external to replenish it. I could have a preliminary post up tomorrow for it but I want to know if it is even worth it, an I being to complicated?

Haru is doing a re-vamp of the magic system that might suit this model.

Sounds like Evocation with a Feeding Dependancy: Magic might work well for that. Of course in your paradigm you might not call it magic - chi, magic, the power of the human mind...it's all just semantics really ya?

Pretty much. That is the gist of it though. Again I may not use this.
