Eldritch Elevations
From the Hand of Michael Mars Russell
Blessed are the Powers granted to us by the Basilisks and
Blessed are we by their use!
Whenever a creature critically succeeds at activating a Power, roll a d20 and consult the table below:
1. The Sacred Flames engulf you,
burning away a curse or healing you
1d4 HP.
2. Purifying Light radiates from the
Power, blinding the target if they are
Evil or restoring sight if they are
Good.
3. Power courses through you as
symbols burn their way out of you. You
now have magical protection (-1d2
damage)!
4. The Power flows from you like a
geyser, doubling the result of the
dice roll and reducing the DR of the
next Power used by -2.
5. The scroll burns away into ash
that burrows into your skin, allowing
you to use that Power without a scroll
and succeed at using that Power
automatically once per day.
6. The Power reconstructs your body,
restoring use to a broken, missing, or
destroyed limb.
7. Angels sing as the Power rains
down, deafening the target if they are
Evil or restoring hearing if they are
Good.
8. As the Power fades away, it surges
forth again. This Power happens again
next turn automatically, but you
select new targets.
9. Energy entwines with your form,
acting as a shield that restores
itself every dawn.
10. A force guides the Power,
preventing it from harming you or your
allies and maximizing any helpful
effect on them.
11. Hungering to be used, the Power
imbues itself into one of your weapons
after activating. Whenever that weapon
kills a creature or critically
succeeds at an attack, it may use this
Power with no Test.

12. The Power bifurcates like the
Basilisks’ heads, doubling the number
of targets affected and refunding the
daily Power expended to use this.
13. A great rumbling shakes the land.
You have prevented the next Misery
rolled from coming to pass, for now…
14. Cleansing waves wash away one of
the Arcane Catastrophes affecting
you.
15. Two and two headed, this Power
doubles the number of targets AND the
result of the dice roll.
16. The Power is the Glory of the
Basilisks and to gaze upon it is to
know your worthlessness. All enemies
who witness this display must make a
Morale Test with a penalty equal to
your Presence. Those who fail lose
1d4 HP.
17. The Power is the Glory of the
Basilisks and to gaze upon it is to
know your worth. All allies who
witness this display make a DR 12
Presence Test with a bonus equal to
your Presence. Those who pass regain
1d4 HP.
18. For a moment you see beyond to the
Shimmering Fields and know there is
hope. Regain 1d2 Omens.
19. SHE whispers in your ear,
revealing information you see as
obvious in hindsight. -4 DR to your
next Test.
20. Power runs like a river through
this world and you are one with the
current. You now critically succeed
on Powers Tests with a 19+. If you roll
this result again, you dissolve into pure Power
(leaving only your eyes) and are whisked away into
the Shimmering Fields.
