MRPG Materials
Mage Wars RPG offers a few more selections for materials than are mentioned in the Course Books.
Material Types
Metal
- Steel
- Silver
- Runesteel
- Starmetal
- Adamantium
- Mithril
- Orichalcum
- Dragonite
Metals come in three forms: ore, filings, and ingots. Only ingots are used in crafting, the other two must be refined.
Wood
- Oak
- Yew
- Darkwood
- Ironwood
- Runewood
Wood comes in three forms: pieces, bundles, and bales. Unlike metal, pieces are the number that are actually used, and bundles and bales break down into pieces. This requires no special ability or skill. 10 pieces make a bundle, 5 bundles make a bale.
Leather
- Cowhide
- Pigleather
- Enchanted Leather
- Green Leather
- Runeleather
- Mystical Leather
- Dragonskin
Leather simple comes in three forms: chips, strips, and stacks. Stacks are just 10 strips. Chips are leftover pieces generated by the crafting process. Weapons typically call for strips and chips, while armor calls for stacks. Typically speaking, each time a strip is used it will leave one chip behind.
Imbued
Imbued materials are those imbued with a specific energy-type. Equipping an armor or piece of jewelry with the imbued-property adds +1-per-quality-level to your resistance to that damage-type. A weapon deals 1 additional damage point per quality level plus an extra 1d6 for being Very Fine.
Imbued Properties are:
- Positive Imbued
- Negative Imbued
- Earth Imbued
- Fire Imbued
- Wind Imbued
- Water Imbued
A skilled smith can make any base-item imbued.
