CRYSTALOGY
----------
Crystalogy, or more accurately, Gemology, is the process of tapping into the
mystical energies of precious and semi-precious gemstones to produce different
effects.
Crystaloger Powers
------------------
Crystalogers get (Science/4)+2 crystalogy powers. Crystal Growth can be
picked more than once to increase bonus.
Name Effect
Launch Crystal Launches a crystal at the enemy for damage.
This does not create crystals but uses
crytals in your possesion.
Max Damage: Miniscule: 0
Tiny: 0
Small: 1
Average: 2, +1*
Big: 4, +2*
Large: 8, +2*
Huge: 15, +5*
*As shard
Levitate Crystal Allows player to move crystals around, one at
a time. The crystals don't move fast enough
to cause damage.
Restore Crystal Restores the CP of a crystal. Can restore a
maximum of (Science/3) CP per day
Improve Crystal Upgrage the quality of a crystal. To increase
the quality one step up, the CP of the
crystal must be full and is then reduced to
zero. A crystal cannot be improved more than
2 steps up from it's starting quality.
Create Crystal Creates a crystal (shards allowed) which
has no crystal effects but can be used with
Launch Crystal, Restore MP and Universal Heal.
The CP of these crystals is half and cannot
be restored. Character can spend (Science)
rounds per day creating or growing crystals.
It takes different amounts of time for
different sizes. Times are listed in rounds.
Time: Miniscule: 1
Tiny: 2
Small: 4
Average: 7
Big: 10
Large: 20
Huge: 30
Grow Crystal Increases the size of a crystal. Character
can spend (Science) round per day growing or
creating crystals. A crystal cannot be grown
more than 2 steps upward from it's starting
size.
Time: Miniscule => Tiny, 1
Tiny => Small, 2
Small => Average, 3
Average => Big, 5
Big => Large, 10
Large => Huge, 15
Find Crystal Locates all the crystal of a specific type
within a 40ft radius.
Seal Crystal Prevents the crystal effects of a crystal
from being used by anyone but the caster.
This spell also prevents the crystal from
being controlled by someone with Novice to
Master level in Control of Element Crystal
but not Adept to God level. Requires a
Science check in order to succeed. If the
check fails, it's sealed, but the caster
can't use it either.
UnSeal Crystal Counteracts the effects of the Seal Crystal
spell. Requires a Science check as well. If
the check is failed, it may be tried agian in
one day.
Restore MP Restores MP by using the CP of any crystal
at a rate of 2 CP/MP
Universal Heal Allows any crystal to be used for healing at
a rate of 5 CP/HP
Crystal Stasis Encase any object into a crystal where it
will remain unchanged until the crystal
is destroyed or removed by a Crystaloger.
This process takes about 10 minutes and
requires a crystal slightly larger than the
object to be encased. Living beings must
make a Endurance check to survive. The
crystal powers of the crystal which is used
cannot be accessed while it is holding an
object. If the crystal is destroyed to
remove the object, there is a 60% chance the
object will be destroyed unless the care of
an archeologist is taken in excavating the
item (this takes about 4 hours and a Touchy
Stuff roll). Seal crystal will prevent other
crystalogers from removing the crystal.
CP Storage The crystaloger can store CP for use later
inside a semi-transparent, semi-solid, sphere
of energy. (Science/3) CP can be added to
the sphere per day (each point added takes 1
away from the Restore Crystal ability). The
sphere's size is 1 centimeter diameter for
every CP stored, ex. a sphere with 50 CP
stored in it will be 50cm wide. CP Storage
requires the restore crystal ability.
Crystal Link Link two crystals together so that they share
the same CP. A huge, perfect ruby can be
kept in a safe place while a small, high
quality ruby is worn on a ring. This will
protect the ruby from damage and save the
crystaloger the trouble of carrying it around.
Linked crystals cannot be more than two
quality levels apart and must be kept within
50km of each other to maintain the link. It
takes 12 hours to establish a link between
two crystals, this consists of a 10 min
procedure followed by 11 hours 50 mins while
the two crystals syncronize. The crystaloger
only needs to be there for the 10 min
procedure. If the crystals are moved more
than 5 ft apart while syncronizing, the link
is not established.
*Crystal Growth Add +10 to any rolls when growing crystals
Crystal Points
--------------
Unlike magic users, crystalogers get thier powers
from inside the crystals themselves. Crystals may contain
different amounts of Crystal Points depending on size
and are then modified by quality as follows (starting
crystals have 1/2 Cp):
Base (size) Multiplier (quality)
Miniscule: 2 Very Poor: 1/10
Tiny: 4 Poor: 1/4
Small: 7 Low: 1/2
Average: 10 Mediocre: 1
Big: 15 High: 2
Large: 20 Near-Perfect: 5
Huge: 30 Perfect: 10
Miniscule: Smaller than index-fingernail
Tiny: Size of a finger-tip
Small: Size of a medium marble
Average: Size of a brussel-sprout
Big: Size of a fist
Large: Size of an average head
Huge: Larger than a head
Very Poor: Stuff found on gravel roads
Poor: Uncut gems
Low: Uncut, nice, gems
Mediocre: Looks nice
High: Jewellery stuff
Near-Perfect: Indistinguishable from perfect with the naked
eye
*Perfect: Perfect crystal lattice on the molecular level
Note: Perfect gems, with the exception of diamond, are
extrodinarily fragile. One small impact will reduce
the quality to Near-Perfect at 1/2 CP.
Note2: Shards connot exceed Low quality
Note3: Crystals do not have any innate CP. All CP contained
in a crystal were added by a crystaloger. Thusly,
crystals which are found or bought in a jewellery
store have no CP. Crystals bought at a crystalogy
store will have CP not exceeding 20.
Crystal Effects
---------------
A "D" in the cost column means the gem must be destroyed to produce this
effect and it must have a certian number of CP left in it. Ex: 1+D means
destroy a crystal with a least 1 CP remaining.

Regeneration at full HP. This can be done as long
as the caster has a part of the dead
person's body. The ice crystal must
be of perfect quality. This is
difficult because above 0 degrees
celsius, it will begin to melt and if
one single molecule is disturbed then
it is no longer perfect. In a
sub-zero environment, any moisture
in the area will join onto the crystal
interuptting the lattice. To
maintain a perfect state, the crystal
must be kept in a sub-zero,
zero-moisture environment.
Crystal Growing and Shaping
---------------------------
Crystalogers can grow crystals at extraordinary speed (hours instead of days
or years). New characters get 3 rolls on the table for starting crystals.*
