Topic: Shapechanger talent

[Bruce]

The talent costs 35 dp and it requires the character to make a Very Hard (-40) Self Discipline roll. The character I am thinking of allowing this on is a druid Gnome whose SD bonus is a +7. That gives them a bonus of a +14 to the roll and with the -40 that equates to a total modifier of -26.  The character needs to roll an open-ended total of a 127 to succeed in changing.

Is this right?

It all seems a little much especially with the 35 DP cost.

You roll on the Percentage column and keep adding the results to a running total until the cumulative result equals or exceeds 100%. So average rolls of 50 with -26 means 20% on an average round, so 5 rounds like that would reach 100%.

Best wishes,
Nicholas

oh, haha, I completely read over that....
I was thinking of allowing the Vivamancer spell "Animal Transformations" scaled up to include Physical Attacks, Movement Type, and Senses as a Blood Magic talent. The caveats would be he could only use it on himself and he would have to develop the "Use Blood Magic: Utility" skill.
Does that sound feasible?
