Default Re: GURPS Dungeon Fantasy 19: Incantation Magic

Ah, here. This is one of my older ones, but does give a quickie example of what such a thing might look like

The character in question had I think Magery 6, Thaumatology and all paths 18, Aetherism Higher Purpose 3 (the higher purpose of brute mana manipulation, used for say smashing things with mana bursts, brute force 'drown it in energy' dispelling, and so forth), Ritual Mastery (Mana Burst), and also a grimoire of Mana Burst.

24 conditional slots
5/5 Mana Burst
3/3 Mana Burst, +P
2/2 Mana Burst, Magnum
4/4 Mana Burst, Wide
2/2 Warrior Academy
2/2 Shadow Clone
2/2 Mana Armor
4/4 Healing Charms

Mana Burst +P
Spell Effects: Greater Create Magic.
Inherent Modifiers: Damage, External Burning + Area Of Effect + Range + Speed.
Greater Effects: 1 (×3).

Mana Burst +P - This releases a much more powerful concentrated burst of raw mana burning anything it touches in the blast area in a brilliant blue white flash as intense as the sun.

Warrior Academy - This is just the Melee Academy spell I discussed in Ghostdancer's blog thread, but for unarmed combat (the character knew karate and had a bladed hand, and was a dragon so could shift into draconic form and used karate with Dragon Style Kung Fu!)

Also had 24 slots for alchemicals
10/10 healing potions
4/4 protection cold potions
4/4 Dragon Teeth (skeletal warrior)
4/4 Mana Burst Grenade
2/2 Healing +P Potion

I can't find my writeup for the Dragon Teeth and Protection Cold offhand, or any of these
