Alchemy: Dungeon Concoctions II

Alchemy: Dungeon Concoctions II

More alchemical concoctions from GURPS Dungeon Fantasy 1 - Adventurers.

Alchemy: Dungeon Concoctions

Alchemy: Dungeon Concoctions

I have converted all existing alchemical elixirs to my Metatronic Alchemy system, but I forgot alchemical concoctions from the Dungeon Fantasy series. It's time to fix that.

Wizardly Styles

Wizardly Styles

GURPS Thaumatology – Magical Styles provides an engine to build various styles of magic. They can either be mandatory in worlds where all mages must learn at specific schools or academies, or non-compulsory in worlds where such stylists gain access to unique spells and/or options. Just like martial styles, magical styles can add a lot of flavor to the setting. I really like the concept, but since I am not a big fan of the vanilla magic system, I was missing out.

Treasure: Cloaks

Treasure: Cloaks

A whole bunch of magical cloaks from D&D 3.5 Dungeon Master's Guide.

Treasure: Headwear

Treasure: Headwear

Here we have non-protective magical headwear from D&D 3.5 Dungeon Master's Guide.

Treasure: Carpet of Flying

Treasure: Carpet of Flying

Here we have a classic magical item built in a questionable way.

Treasure: Cape of the Mountebank

Treasure: Cape of the Mountebank

Flashy displays of teleportation effects are my all-time favorites. This magical item from D&D 3.5 Dungeon Master's Guide allows the user to disappear in a cloud of smoke once per day.

Sorcery: Zeno's Paradoxes

Sorcery: Zeno's Paradoxes

These three spells are based on Zeno's paradoxes. The first one makes victims unable to reach the caster. The second one immobilizes the victim in space. The third one nullifies ranged attacks.

Treasure: Brooches, Brooms, and Candles

Treasure: Brooches, Brooms, and Candles

Here we have a brooch, a broom, and two magical candles from D&D 3.5 Dungeon Master's Guide.

Treasure: Bracers and Bracelets

Treasure: Bracers and Bracelets

Here we have bracers and bracelets from D&D 3.5 Dungeon Master's Guide.

Treasure: Elemental Summoning Items

Treasure: Elemental Summoning Items

D&D 3.5 Dungeon Master's Guide has four different elemental summoning items. Here's my attempt at converting them.

Treasure: Bottle of Air

Treasure: Bottle of Air

This useful, but brittle magic item is useful when traveling underwater or in areas with contaminated air.

Psionics: Astral Suit

Psionics: Astral Suit

This is a new ability for the Metacreativity power. It is modeled after the signature class ability of the aegis from Pathfinder RPG. Had to use a self-only Affliction instead of simple DR to avoid making the ability an "active" defense.

Grafting

Grafting

Fantasy (and not only fantasy) is full of wizards/mad scientists/necromancers/alchemists who replace their body parts with body parts of other, often very different creatures. D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder have a lot of such material to use, but it requires some combing, sorting, and tweaking. Let us get to it!

Monster: Red Dragon

Monster: Red Dragon

Here we have the last chromatic dragon - the red dragon, the biggest and the most powerful one. Magical abilities do not seem powerful, but physically this is a monster.

Monsters: Cephalopods

Monsters: Cephalopods

And here's the last post about D&D 3.5 Monster Manual animals not represented in GURPS. I think now druids should have a big roster enough to choose animal companions or wild shape forms from.

Monsters: Dogs and Birds

Monsters: Dogs and Birds

Here we have not represented dogs and birds. Riding dog and hyena templates are based on the ones from GURPS Animalia and tweaked a bit.

Monsters: Elephants and Lizards

Monsters: Elephants and Lizards

This post covers reptiles and elephants from D&D that are not covered by existing GURPS supplements. As always, templates are based on the ones from GURPS Animalia and tweaked a bit.

Monsters: Fish and Whales

Monsters: Fish and Whales

Here we have five animals from Monster Manual - three whales, and two fish. Templates are based on the ones from GURPS Animalia and tweaked a bit.

Monsters: Dire B

Monsters: Dire B

Here we have three dire animals - dire bat, dire bear, and dire boar.

Monsters: Assorted Animals

Monsters: Assorted Animals

Here we have animals from the Monster Manual that I could not assign to any group and that lack GURPS statistics - dire wolverine, war pony, toad, and bison.

Monsters: Felines

Monsters: Felines

More mundane and dire animals from three different D&D sourcebooks. These cats share similar racial templates that are based on the templates from GURPS Animalia and tweaked a bit.

Alchemy: Positoxins

Alchemy: Positoxins

Another D&D type of poison is the positoxin. Introduced in Libris Mortis and never mentioned again, they act as poisons to corporeal undead, while leaving all other creatures unaffected. They require the brewer to have the ability to channel positive energy - in GURPS terms I will replace it with the requirement of powers granted by a good deity. Also, this qualifies for a new specialty for the Poisons skill. Positoxins rely on mana and do not function in no-mana zones.

Alchemy: Dark Alchemy III

Alchemy: Dark Alchemy III

And here we have the last three unconverted elixirs. Everything else is done, unless a supplement with additional alchemical elixirs will be released before this post goes up.

Alchemy: Dark Alchemy II

Alchemy: Dark Alchemy II

More dark elixirs. Tricky ones.

Alchemy: Dark Alchemy

Alchemy: Dark Alchemy

David L. Pulver wrote the Dark Alchemy article for Pyramid #3-91, describing a new alchemical tradition. These are the last non-converted elixirs from currently released supplements. These elixirs might use the standard Alchemy skill or a new specialty - Alchemy (Dark). I'd prefer it to be the latter. I suggest moving elixirs of Lichdom, Reanimation, and Partial Resurrection to this tradition too.

Alchemy: Lead Rings

Alchemy: Lead Rings

This post covers lead rings for metallic alchemy. And we're done with this conversion!

Alchemy: Tin Rings

Alchemy: Tin Rings

This post covers tin rings for metallic alchemy.

Alchemy: Iron Rings

Alchemy: Iron Rings

This post covers iron rings for metallic alchemy.

Alchemy: Gold Rings

Alchemy: Gold Rings

Here we have gold rings for metallic alchemy.

Alchemy: Copper Rings

Alchemy: Copper Rings

Continuing with metallic alchemy. This time we have copper rings here.
