BACK to Effects
The great thing about effects of that they can be added to any items or abilities the character has! This means that you could create a Hat with the same effects as a Feat, or a weapon that grants you skill bonuses. For the Sheet, if an effect is available, the 'source' of that effect is irrelevant!
Effects can be added to almost everything. The Easiest to learn HOW to create effects is to learn by example. The process of adding effects is similar, whether you are adding an effect for a weapon, of for a feat.
We assume you are familiar to 'navigating' through the Sheet to get to the desired worksheet (if not, you might want to stay out of the advanced User Guide!!).
Example #1: A Magical Armor
As our first example, we will create a new suit of Armor, based on a Chainmail, but with these magical effects/properties:
- +1 enhancement bonus to Armor Class
- Slick Special Ability
- Invulnerability Special Ability
Step #1
