Domain Power: Karma - The caster may gain positive or negative Karma to a maximum equal to Rank. Each form of Karma cancels each other out, so gaining positive Karma reduces any currently held negative Karma and vice versa. Positive Karma may be spent to grant an equal number of dice to yourself or an ally's roll as a Luck bonus. Negative Karma may be spent to apply an equal number dice penalty to an enemy's roll. Karma may only be applied to a target once per encounter.
Rank | Power | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | Charmed Life | On a failed skill roll the caster may treat a single dice that would count toward a Critical Failure (ex. a 1) as a normal failure. This increases to two dice at Rank 3, and three dice at Rank 5. |
2 | Superlative Luck | Caster gains 9-again for any skill roll. This is cast as part of the skill check and may include combat rolls such as Melee Weapons attacks. This effect may be combined with Maneuvers such as those granted by Fighting Styles. You gain +2 Negative Karma. 1 Mana. |
3 | Evasion | As a Fast action the caster may add their dodge bonus to their Magic Defense for Rank rounds. This may not be activated re-actively, and must be activated on the caster's turn. You gain +3 Negative Karma. 2 Mana. |
4 | Freedom of Movement | The caster becomes immune to effects that would apply a speed penalty or prevent movement for 10 minutes. Additionally the caster automatically succeeds on any grapple check made to resist or escape a grapple. You gain +4 Negative Karma. |
5 | Miraculous Escape | Once per day, if incoming damage would kill you or an ally within Rank x 10 yards, the attack automatically misses the chosen target. May be activated as a reactive free action. Costs 5 Negative Karma. |
Rank | Power | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | Bad Luck | All targets (including friendly targets) within a 5 + Rank Yard radius must make a Resist roll vs. Magic or 1s and 2s are considered as critical failures if no successes are rolled while affected by this aura. If the target successfully resists they are immune to the effects of the aura for 1 hour regardless of how many times they leave or re-enter it. The aura may not be disabled once acquired, it is permanent, but the caster may expended 1 Positive Karma to grant a single target immunity to the aura for 1 hour. |
2 | Cursed Luck | As Bad Luck, but additionally all targets (including friendly targets) failing a Magic Resist roll only succeed on rolls of 9 or 0 while inside the aura. Each target successfully affected grants +1 Positive Karma. The aura may not be disabled once acquired, it is permanent, but the caster may expended 1 Positive Karma to grant a single target immunity to the aura for 1 hour. |
3 | Defensive Luck | When an enemy within a 10 Yards caster declares an attack against the caster, they may re-actively use Defensive Luck as a Fast Action. The attacker must make a Magic Resistance roll. If they fail, they suffer a -2 penalty to their attack, and if the attack does not result in at least 1 success counts as a Critical Failure. You gain +3 Positive Karma. 2 Mana. |
4 | Deadly Luck | Critical failures while affected by Cursed Luck will always result in worst case results as if the target rolled 5 or more Natural 1s. The exact effects of the failures will remain up to the Storyteller, but should be catastrophic. Anytime a critical failure occurs by a target affected by Cursed Luck gain +4 Positive Karma. |
5 | Calamity | Once per encounter, a single target within Rank x 10 yards makes a Magic Resist roll. On a failure, their next action will automatically be a critical failure with the successes treated as 1s. Costs 5 Positive Karma. |
Rank | Power | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | Gambler | The caster's luck influences their ability to gamble, causing extreme swings in fortune. The Storyteller must secretly flip a coin at the beginning of a session and note the result for the remainder of that session.
|
2 | Beginner's Luck | The caster's luck influences their ability to perform a chosen skill. This power may not be combined with Superlative Luck. Only one skill may be affected by Beginner's Luck at a time, and a skill may only be chosen once per day. 1 Mana. Flip a coin.
|
3 | Lucky Shot | When making a physical attack, instead of rolling, flip a coin. 2 Mana.
|
4 | Happenstance | A random happenstance occurs that either benefits or harms the caster. As a Fast Action, flip a coin. 3 Mana.
|
5 | Favor of the Goddess | Caster may treat a single coin flip as if it landed on heads. This must be declared prior to flipping the coin. Instead of gaining the normal Negative Karma for a flip of Heads, the caster gains +5 Negative Karma. Costs 1 Story Point. |
