In Pursuit of Power

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Selected Option:

Magicians display the widest range of capabilities of all characters who follow novice paths, thanks to the spells they learn from the magical traditions they discover. One magician might delve into the darkness of Necromancy, creating undead thralls to protect and accompany her on her adventures, while another could pick up a sword and find the magic in it, discovering the Battle tradition to enhance his fighting abilities.

Until now, magicians differentiated themselves largely by their spells, but In Pursuit of Poweroffers them much more flexibility and versatility. Now, magicians can swap out the talents they would gain from their novice path for those related to the traditions they've discovered. As a magician, your talents could reflect your growing mastery of your particular traditions, providing new choices and abilities beyond those available in Shadow.

If you have what it takes to learn and wield magic, unleash your newfound potential with In Pursuit of Power!

I think there might be an editing error that causes a huge change in interpretation. Can I ask for clarification?

On page 6, it says "If, for example, you have discovered Arcana and Alchemy, you could exchange the Cantrip talent for Alchemy Focus AND Arcana Focus." Should it say OR instead of AND?

Let's say I'm a wizard with Cantrip, and Alchemy and Arcana.
If I keep Cantrip, I get 2 0-rank spells from Alchemy and 2 from Arcana, and no special talents.
If I swap Cantrip for Alchemy Focus, I get 2 0-rank spells from Alchemy and 1 from Arcana, and Antitoxin special talent.
If I swap Cantrip for Arcana Focus, I get 1 0-rank spell from Alchemy and 2 from Arcana, and Simple Spells special talent.
But, as page 6 implies, I can swap Cantrip for BOTH Alchemy Focus and Arcana Focus, and end up with 2 0-rank spells from Alchemy and 2 from Arcana, and Antitoxin, and Simple Spells.

That doesn't seem right. There should be a trade-off, not a strict upgrade...See more

I'm assuming you bought the "PDF + Softcover Color Book (Premium Heavyweight)", if so, that already has a discount factored in, if you look.

If you bought the other softcover option, I feel bad for you, cos it's a trick to catch those who don't pay attention.

Like this a lot, as it allows even more customisation, and I'm really eager to see what the follow-up to it, Occult Philosophy, brings to the table.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
