| No spell requires the use of a material (M) component. Material components act as a catalyst, making the spell more effective. They require the use of 1 movement action. Material components will:
|
|
|
| 1. Double the range; if the spell was touch, it becomes 10 yards. Spells with range 0 become range touch.
|
| 2. Double the area of effect (each dimension).
|
| 3. Double the duration.
|
| 4. Double the actual effect of the spell (i.e. hp of damage, etc.). This doubles the die type rolled for random effects, not the number of dice.
|
| 5. Double the caster's level for purposes of magic/spell resistance.
|
| 6. Replace a V or S component.
|
| 7. Double the caster's level for purposes of saving throw DC.
|
| 8. Increase the spell level by 2 for purposes of anti-magic.
|
|
|
| It is possible to use more than 1 material component for a single spell, if you have "Ability to Double Material Component" (using 1 movement action for each component), but if the same bonus is selected twice, the bonus is triple (not quadruple).
|
|
|
| Cost of Material Componenting (Optional):
|
| This is an optional rule if the DM requires the PCs to have expensive materials to use this section.
|
| There are 2 basic types of material components: consumed and re-usable.
|
| Consumed components are less expensive (and usually less bulky) than re-usable components.
