Spells ● Transform Median Life (Redirected from
RAW:Transform Median Life)
The mage can transform one form of
median life (most mammals, fish, birds
and reptiles) into another median or
base life form.
The mage can affect a target of Size 20
or less. If the target is larger, penalties are
levied against the spellcasting roll (see
“Size,” p. 118). He transforms the target
into a creature of Size typical for that
type of being. A bear (Size 8) can be
transformed into a cat (Size 2), but not
into a Size 8 cat. Transforming a smaller
creature (the cat) into a larger creature
(the bear) imposes dice penalties:
Increase Size / Dice Penalty
+3 = -1
+6 = -2
+9 = -3
+12 = -4
+15 = -5
At this level, the mage must touch
the target. With Life 4, he can cast this
spell at sensory range.
Free Council Rote: Catalytic Change
Many Free Council mages are aware
of how many earthly creatures share
genetic similarly. Calling upon those
connections, such a willworker is capable
of transforming one basic or
median life form into another, rearranging
strands of DNA and thereby
facilitating a total genetic shift.
Mysterium mages usually prefer to define
this magic as an act of
transmutation, an organic alchemy.
