Seed: Transform

From Brilliance and Shadow Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

One of the most common and well-known powers of sorcery is the infusion of planar energies into the caster's own body. This results in transformations that become increasingly obvious while active and with regular use causes permanent changes to the caster (e.g. horns, or strangely colored eyes). The infusion of planar energies into the caster's blood causes euphoria and is highly addictive with a Potency equal to Rank. Every cast of Seed: Transform requires the caster to make an opposed Physical Resistance roll against the potency or gain a step of Addiction. Upon Transformation the caster gains the chosen benefits for the rank cast and any lower ranks. Some ranks have multiple options (indicated with bullets). Upon taking these ranks, the caster must choose which option to select, and this choice may not be changed later.

Favored Seed: Sorcerers with the chosen Plane of The Outer Wild do not risk Backlash for the first push.

Rank Name Description
1 Basic Transformation Caster chooses the base type of transformation they will have, gaining the ability to utilize Natural Weapons, Alter their Form, or gain Darkvision.
2 Improved Transformation Transformation now gains an enhancement bonus while active, and chooses additional benefits which may increase durability, improve their mobility or exude an aura that causes fear.
3 Enhanced Transformation The caster may transform more quickly with more control, allowing them to alter their enhancement bonuses with each cast.
4 Superior Transformation Caster may take on an additional bonus to their transformation and either drastically increasing in size, or become lightning fast and greatly improve their reaction times
5 Mythic Transformation The transformation takes on very distinguishable characteristics of the caster's associated plane, granting the caster wings to fly with and improved recovery speed. While transformed, the caster may be recognized as an Outsider.
