The Fochlucan Lyrist

[sirrus56]

The Fochlucan Lyrist Mod would do two things to the Mage. First, it wold grant mages the same skill progression as rogues. Second, it would introduce the Fochlucan Lyrist Specialization.

 

 

Fochlucan Lyrist Specialization bonus: +2 Willpower, +1 Magic

 

First String of abilities:

Dirty Fighting (As Rogue ability)

Song of Valor (As bardic ability)

Summon Blight Wolf (Same as Ranger Ability)

Evasion (As Rogue Ability)

 

Second String of abilities:

The Shadowy Arts: Can detect and disarm traps, as well as pick locks as a rogue of equal level.

Improved Shadowy Arts: Now uses Magic instead of cunning for detecting and disarming traps and picking locks. Can enter stealth, using Magic as the primary statistic instead of dexterity.

Touch of Darkness: The Mage gains bonuses to disarming traps and picking locks equal to device mastery, further the Mage may now use items while stealthed.

Master of Shadows: The Mage gains significant bonuses to stealth checks and may now stealth while in combat, and gains bonuses to detecting and disarming traps, and picking locks as though the mage had Device Mastery.

 

 

Basically this turns the mage into a rogue with some extra cool abilities from the bard and ranger tree.

 

 

Yes, it's overpowered.

 

Yes, it makes the rogue entirely useless.

 

No, I don't care. =)
