Wand Magic

ADD TO WISHLIST >

This short supplement introduces a new Arcane Background based on 2020 SWAG Award Winnerusing focus items - namely wands - to fully employ casters' magical abilities.

It should also serve as an example of how to flesh out a generic core Arcane Background in an interesting way.

It is a Setting Nugget intended to be easily inserted into an existing fantasy setting. It can be used in any historical or modern setting as well, as long as magic exists in your world.

Inside you will find:

  • Arcane Background (Wand Magic)
  • 2 Hindrances
  • 9 Power Edges

Note: In this product, wands are not treated as magical items in the classic sense. They do not make their users any more powerful than other characters.

Tales of the City Guard

(While not a Savage Worlds product, it offers a very nice mission generator.)

Jan, what a product. I'm going to put it right into my High Fantasy Setting.

So looking through the preview, I see nothing here that requires a whole new Edge, when a Trapping is all that's necessary. I'm not sure about this one.

The AB certainly functions on its own. The same way other ABs do. But there are certain tropes that will benefit from using the Edges. Trappings will not be enough for that.

I really enjoyed this! Not only were the mechanics around using wands cool, I also just love the idea of a Setting Nugget that can be dropped to enhance my world building for home-brew games.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
