Alternate Jade Effects

  • back to JadeSerpent

Jade doesn't get enough loving...

What if different flavours of Jade got different statistical effects based on the elemental attunement?

Eg: Melee Weapons

  • Red Jade gets +3 Speed, +1 Damage, -1 Defense (Fire symbolizes destruction; but defends only through destruction)
  • Black Jade gets +1 Accuracy, +1 Defense, -1 Damage (Water is absorptive and fluid; but is not solid enough to deliver cutting blows)
  • White Jade gets +1 Damage, +1 Defense, -3 Speed (Earth is symbolic of stability and mass)
  • Green Jade gets +1 Defense (Wood is the nurturing element)
  • Blue Jade gets +6 Speed, -1 Accuracy (Air blows where it will, it is wild and uncontrolled, but swift beyond all other elements)

Terrestrials get to attune wrong colour jade at +1 mote instead of the usual double cost. The Lore check to harmonize the wrong element is at simple difficulty (Diff:1) for Terrestrials as all Jade is elemental in nature, even if it's the wrong element.

Comments

Yeah, I know this will be lots of work, but it goes hand-in-hand with my Storyteller's Companion-style Terrestrials project. -- JadeSerpent
