The Library Of Helpful Knowledge

Spells:

Level ∞:

• Roll Dice: If the GM commands a dice roll, remember your fundamentals! A simple, yet critical skill for spelunking. You'd be surprised how difficult a saving throw is without some of these and a quick hand! Don't be too cozy, the GM won't like self-rolls all the time!
• [1-A 19 required] Cleanse Toxins: 1-A 19 injects a viscious mix of antiviral and antitoxins into the bloodstream, finding and destroying any anomalies. Will cure any form of poison, most forms of parasites and even protect from blood-based temperature changes [such as 'Boil blood'] with built in heating/cooling.
  
• [1-A 19 required] Mend Self: 1-A 19 injects a mixture of coagulant, regenerative elixirs and pure unadulterated science juices borne millennia ago to help rapidly seal major wounds and completely heal minor ones. Requires a recharge after use.
  

Level 0:

• Push: Can be used to project kinetic force. Up to caster how hard and in what way to push.

Level 1:

• Summon Fire: Allows you to summon a fire! Up to caster how to mold it. Persistent flame is very draining. Can also summon adorable fireflies.
• Detect Metal: Caster attempts to detect all metallic objects within range. Extra roll to determine effectiveness.
  
• Drain Essence: Caster can drain life force from living beings and magical force from objects using this. Weapons, pieces of holy land, objects connected to deities are all free game. Think of this like "Kirby" but much more prone to backfire. Drained items/creatures get saving throw. Critical failure by caster results in wiping own mind, and returning to base skills! Requires "Unnatural Science" to learn. Cannot drain party members without consent.
  
• Project Self: Caster projects an image of him/herself anywhere they wish, limited only by their eyesight, and are commanded freely. Very powerful mages can make these corporeal, essentially creating two of themselves to fight the enemy.
  

Level 2: Requires "Magical Knowledge II" to learn.

• Molten Hands: Caster transforms his or her forearms into flesh of magma and bones of adamant. Effectiveness is limited to the user's imagination.

Skills:

• Book-Learned: A skill that represents a characters scholastic prowess. These characters can read most books of familiar language. Also gives bonuses to trivial 'learned' skills.
  
• Traps: Deals with the setting up, dismantling, identifying, and generally ruining the time of trap designers.
  
• Mechanics: An umbrella skill if there ever was one. A character skilled in general mechanics is able to maintain, identify, dismantle and otherwise ruin the time of basic mechanic structures. Specialized sub-skills exist.
  
• Persuasion: Characters with this are better at negotiation, diplomacy and everything you'd think comes with a quick tongue.
  
• Leadership: Characters with this are capable of party leadership. Bonuses to diplomacy, party strength and NPC interaction depending on ability.
  
• Magical Knowledge I: This skill tree represents a characters ability to study, learn, and be aware of magical nuances. Can also represent an inherent casting ability. Takes a very long time to accomplish, and most mages will have spent their careers trying to gain this basic knowledge. Magical Knowledge I allows a character to learn most level 1 spells.
  
• Magical Knowledge II: This represents a character who is not only skilled in the ways of magic, but studied it formally [Likely in a very high Ivory Tower] under great Tome-Mages. A character with Magical Knowledge II is basically a master of their art and understands the nuances of metaphysical sciences. Can learn a larger variety and more specialized magics normally limited to elementalists. Can learn level 2 spells. This is the height of power for most mundane humans.
  
• Dreamer: A character with this skill is able to put their mind to doing most anything, given enough time and effort.
  
• Unnatural Science: This character can bend the very fabric of what is thought to be possible. Their very existence is likely a paradox. Bonuses to learning unconventional magics/sciences thought contradictory by usual standards.
  
• Shapeshift: Usually limited to the chosen druids in nature, this character has the unnatural ability to mold their flesh and bones to most shapes. Limited by endurance and mental willpower. Even the most powerful characters cannot shapeshift and hold such form for extended periods.

Traits:

• Horror: If you have this, you are not of this world. You are a scourge in the eyes of both demons and paragons of virtue. Entire planes of existence have devoted their eternities to fighting these outer-dimensional objects. This trait has many effects, and very few of them are good. Can achieve powers impossible.
  
• Strong+: Someone with giant bones and a chiseled jaw. A character with this trait has the strength of atleast two gorillas. Large bonus to damage and most things that require brute force.
  
• Adorable: This trait represents an uncanny ability for a character to deflect attention from their bad side with the sheer power of cuteness. Bonuses to diplomacy and intrigue checks.
  
• Scaly: Rough, scaly skin is this gist of this trait. Provides protection from most cuts and mild heat resistance.
  
• Abominable aura: While unbeknownst to the untrained eye, a character with this trait is a blemish on the natural order of things. He/she has cavorted with the enemies of devils and angels and patient GMs, the Eldritch Horrors. There are many effects of this trait and most are bad. If a cleric of good or evil detects you they will not hesitate to attack.
  
• Insanity: Characters with this trait can do very unconventional things.
  
• Wild Magic: Up is down and left is right in the magical minds of these characters. Exceptional or poor spell rolls may not do what you expect.
  
• Inherent Luck: Incredible ability to defy all odds. +1 to all rolls.
  
• Mindless: This represents a characters total lack of mental machination. This means they are immune to most forms of mind control, confusion, fear, mind-blasting attacks, mind-reading, etc. On the other hand, they cannot gain skills naturally without vast amounts of time spend studying.
  
• Enhanced Body: +1 to most/all rolls involving agility, strength, endurance, reactions. All the bonuses of an enhanced metabolic system rigged up to a sentient steroid-pumping helmet, basically.
  
• Ignored By Gods: This character has begged from too many gods and upset the majority of them. No god, deity, or metaphysical force will aid you or hear your calls with this trait. Magic and skills must come only naturally to these characters, as gods will not change their mind once this decision has been made.
