Accelerated Healing
Posted on December 28, 2017 in D20 iCore Trait
Summary: The character’s healing rate is increased.
With Accelerated Healing, the natural processes of the body more rapidly heal damage. The character will heal a greater amount per healing cycle – dependent on species, setting, and circumstances. This increased healing applies to damage only, not secondary conditions or effects which may be ongoing – unless the source of such indicates that this feature also applies. It is assessed in Measures; Unless noted, these measures are not cumulative. Measures of Accelerated Healing and Inhibited Healing offset each other.

The character increases their normal healing rate per Short Rest by the measure of increase. Example: Accelerated Healing 1 = +1 per Short Rest.

iCore™ Skill Details
climbing up or over difficult surfaces or terrain. Free climbing has no inherent bonuses, but professional climbers gear (harness, carabiners, pitons, rope systems) will grant +1 to +4 adjustments depending on how much of the common gear and if it can be used effectively. Climbing vertical surfaces is especially difficult and may impose penalties. A climber may make a check to discover the best route for ascent or descent of a long route – granting a bonus if successful. Characters who are non-encumbered have no penalties, while encumbered characters suffer -1 per AM impairement and any hamper penalties. Combat while climbing is considered fighting under unstable circumstances, inhibited by the climb skill. Simple contests can be assessed using best result degree of a check; ties settled by skill level then RCT.

D20 Occult Alchemy
Requirements: This requires an Intelligence of 14+ and a Wizard class of 2nd level ability or higher.
In addition to the normal Alchemy skills and artisan tools, the alchemist is proficient with advanced, more volatile and rarer processes and materials. These are used to augment the effects of certain spells. To augment a wizard spell, the alchemist must possess the following: The Wizard version of the spell in their spell book, 2) the normal material components for the spell, 3) the matching Occult Formulae for the same spell.
The alchemist takes a number of days equal to the spell level to produce the enhanced alchemal version of the spell, costing 25 coins per day. They make a DC 10 (+ the level of the spell) check with their tools and see if the process results in the correct outcome – transforming the mundane material components into an enhanced one which changes the outcome of the spell when cast. The specific outcome is based on the formulae. [Minor Alchemy (2nd level Transmuter Arcane Tradition power) allows the alchemist to add their proficiency bonus (doubling it) again to the outcome of the formulae.]
- Extended Range: Doubled or touch becomes 30 feet.
- Extended Area: Covers double the normal area.
- -Replaces the concentration of the caster, allowing them to concentrate on another spell-
- Extended Duration: Double the duration of any spell with more than an instantaneous duration.
- Usurped Will: Assuming no change in the condition of the target that would normally give them a new save, this suspend the spell descriptions that allow the target to automatically get a new save each round.
- Spreading Effect: The spell affects another target within its range (if non damage causing).
- [Other]: Minor effect, adding no more than a D4 damage to the spell if it makes sense
Multiple effects can be combined, each one has the effect of doubling the cost and adding an additional day as well as +1 to the difficulty check.

Meditation
Posted on September 6, 2015 in D20 iCore Skill
Meditation attempts to harmonize the mind and body with its position in the time-space of The Pattern around it, in order to unlock, clear, rejuvenate or impress some notion or feature. A Character suffering from Nightmares cannot Meditate. Meditation is also the foundation for species and creatures that do not take material sleep or rest to gain an equivalent experience – such as those connected to The World Beyond (ex: The Body Beyond, The Mind Beyond, etc.). Mystic Reservoirs also rely on Meditation to affix elements in them.
