Items and Magic

Magical Items

Magical items store power—each has its own limit. They can then fuel abilities, techniques, and spells, acting as an expanded Source Pool.

---

Attunement

To store source in an item, a character must attune to it.

Attunement Time

• Takes 1 day per SD Capacity of the item
• For each day of attunement: access +1 SD capacity

Attunement Limit

• A character may be attuned to magical items with a combined SD capacity no greater than their base character Source
• This is before item bonuses or temporary boosts

---

Capacity (Items)

• Your maximum source limit is increased by how much an item can hold
• When you Replenish, you may now gain Source Dice up to your combined personal reservoir + item capacity

---

Using Item Source

• Item SD can fuel any ability, spell, or technique
• Item SD is tracked as part of your pool.
• Makes magical items valuable for:
  • Emergency surges
  • Prolonged encounters
  • Bypassing SD limits

---

Crafting Magical Items

Crafting = investing Source, time, and materials to imbue power into an item.

Crafting Commitment

• Total SD committed = item’s final capacity
• 1 SD = 1 day of crafting
• Multiple crafters can share commitment
• If one person completes it alone, they are fully attuned at creation

---

Materials & Magic

• Materials are chosen by the GM, based on item type and rarity
• Above Common: requires a magical conduit to be imbued
• Magic (rituals, workshops) may accelerate crafting time

---

Item Customization

• Items can be imbued with Cantrips/Spells/Techniques
• Items (including weapons/armor) have 9 attribute slots
• Must choose all attributes at crafting time
• Each cantrip, spell, or technique uses a number of attribute slots equal to its Source Cost (minimum 1)

Limit	Attribute Types
9	Cantrips, Spells, Techniques

---

Item Activation

• Activating the cantrip, spell, or technique requires a Core Action or equivalent and an expenditure of Source or Movement equal to the Attribute.

• If attuned with an item, you add your proficiency to checks made with the item, including Activation.

• Items are activated using your choice of either Wisdom, Knowledge, or Influence.

Note: Common items do not require attunement.

---

Mythic Items

Divine constructs, vastly powerful, change how Source scales.

Mythic Item Traits

• Source Pool: 20d20 or more committed during crafting.
• Effect: Increases your base SD by your level

Limits & Requirements

• Only one Mythic item may be attuned at a time
• Requires 10+ in Wisdom, Knowledge, or Influence

---

Mythic Loadout Example

• Level 17 character with a Mythic item
• Base SD = 20 → becomes 37
• Attuned item SD pool can total up to 37
• If attuned to three Legendary items = 36 SD:
  • Total usable SD = 37 (char) + 36 (items) = 73
