RPM[MH]- Applicable items and sacrifice

starslayer · 08-26-2011, 02:29 AM

So several of the players in our games use RPM magic, and they'd love to cash in on the discount for doing things that are in sync with the ritual- but were having trouble coming up with a standard way to figure out what would constitute applicable beyond GM fiat.

So I have come up with the following rule for the cost of useful ritual items:

Useful ritual items cost the same amount as a grimore providing a bonus equal to the discount (So useful ritual items worth 2% discount on a spell cost the same as a +2 grimore or 100, useful ritual items worth 10% discount on a spell cost the same as a +10 or 100,000); these items can be used as often as wanted and like grimores are spell specific.

Sacrificed ritual items cost 1/100th of that cost, and are consumed on use:
So 2% discount is worth $1.

I am also considering making it so that sacrificed ritual items are applicable to path rather then to spell- so that a witch can carry a few dozen scented incenses and not worry that 'this pack of incense is only good for greater destroy body'.

Thoughts/opinions?
