====== Powers ====== {{:rpg:blood_shadow:erika-bw.png?120 |}} Blood Shadow uses the standard powers from [[wp>Amber Diceless Roleplaying Game|the DRPG]]. Setting specific notes are below. Additional powers not detailed in the DRPG are also possible. ===== Pattern ===== While [[the Blood]] are technically of Amber blood, none of them have ever walked the Pattern or visited Amber. This power is not available to PCs. ===== Logrus ===== Much like Pattern, PCs have no access to the Courts of Chaos or the Logrus. ===== Trump ===== Trump is extremely rare, but available. As none of [[the Blood]] have been to other Shadows, PCs can only create trumps of people and places on [[the Blood Shadow]]. ===== Shape-shifting ===== Fully available as per DRPG. ===== Power Words ===== Fully available as per DRPG. ===== Sorcery ===== Fully available as per DRPG. With a caveat - the Blood Shadow setting uses a strict interpretation of the DRPG Sorcery rules. Note that spells can be hung on a powered item, but the rules for items that can be used as spell-hangers states that only PCs with Conjuration can own them. This means that an effective Sorceror really needs Conjuration as well as Sorcery, so zie can have a spell-hanger. ===== Conjuration ===== Fully available as per DRPG. ===== Other ===== Other powers are welcome, pending prior negotiation with the GM. Telepathy, Telekinesis, etc. are all possible. Non-Amber DRPG powers will be handled on a case by case basis, and evaluated against Sorcery for usefulness to determine the cost.
