A Little Lesson in Magic Spells (Miko's quick reference)

Adult (Level 3)

-- Max physical damage: 200
-- Max magic damage of spells learned at this stage: 400
-- All spells learned at this stage have a mana cost of: 300
-- Mana points (MP): 6000
-- Health points (HP): 8000
-- Cast time: spell is in effect/has hit/is calculated in the target's 4th post after its cast post

Elder (Level 4)

-- Max physical damage: 500
-- Max magic damage of spells learned at this stage: 1000
-- All spells learned at this stage have a mana cost of: 400
-- Mana points (MP): 20000
-- Health points (HP): 10000
-- Cast time: spell is in effect/has hit/is calculated in the target's 3rd post after its cast post


-- Learned at adult stage: choice between Hastega (subtracts 2) or Slowga (adds 2)
-- Learned at elder stage: whichever of the two spell choices that hadn't been learned at adult stage


-- The following is a simplified presentation of each element's clashing sets:

// element : 1st degree (its rival), 2nd degree (its weakness)

In Group 1:
// fire : water, thunder
// water : fire, ice
// ice : thunder, ki
// earth : ki, water
// thunder : ice, earth
// ki : earth, fire
// time : none
// heal : none

In Group 2:
// wind : ?, ?
// ? : ?, ?
// ? : ?, ?
// ? : ?, ?
// ? : none
// ? : none

Ex. A Coeurl that is a natural born fire type can use its fire spell to affect a natural born water type Coeurl with two (2) times the damage they roll, but a water spell affects the natural born fire Coeurl in the same way. Thunder spells affect a natural born fire Coeurl in the same way (2 times the damage rolled). However, fire spells have a regular effect to natural born thunder Coeurl (no multiplying by 2).


-- These traits signify a Coeurl's spell/skill casting control in terms of how many 100-sided dice they need to roll before rolling the damage dealt dice.

// 'one of the majority' : 3
// 'gifted' : 2
// 'one of the few of the gifted' : 1
// time : 4

-- Depending on the stage of the Coeurl, rolling certain numbers or values ending in certain numbers on the trait dice results in a failed cast.

// cub : 1, 3, 6, 9
// teen : 1, 3, 6
// adult : 1, 3
// elder : 1

.. Determining damage dealt .. About dodging, blocking ..


**************************************************

-- Depending if you are using a physical attack or spell/skill. The value of the right-most 100-sided die rolled is the percentage of the max damage # indicated in the stats matching the Coeurl's stage that hits.

-- The post before a spell hits is when the spell is fired after casting ('loading') is finished. Thus, a physical attack can't be initiated in the post before a spell hits. You random-number generate the damage of a spell in the post it is cast not fired.

**************************************************

Depending on the stage of a Coeurl, they can dodge/block once per a certain amount of RP posts they make.

// cub : 1 per 5
// teen : 1 per 4
// adult : 1 per 3
// elder : 1 per 2
