Sword Wonder Idea (another one)
Hi guys, as you can see by the title this is another sword based wonder idea from me, specifically my second one. Technically this idea can work with other weapons too but what I’m thinking is a sword enchanted to grant the wielder increased physical attributes as well as increased skill in using the weapon, effectively turning a random string bean nerd mage into a fairly dangerous warrior. It’d cause noticeable changes in the person’s physiology, making them stronger and more agile and using the sword effectively would just come naturally to them. All of this of course relies on them holding the sword in their hands, once the sword is sheathed or otherwise no longer in their hands the effects dissipate instantly.
Now mechanically this would involved creating a wonder with life 3 to cause the physical enhancement but I’m not as sure about the skill aspect, giving someone additional dots in melee and perhaps dodge. I feel like it would be mind but what level of mind?
In terms of wonder I feel like this would also be a trinket as it only does like a very specific thing.
This idea can also be changed to be like a gun, maybe even a smart gun in the case of the technocratic agenda, or colonial marines larpers.
But yeah just wanted to throw the idea out there and get some impressions, this is all for 20th Anniversary of course.
