Magic Warriors

[Brandon Stubbs]

Well It's been awhile since I've written here. :(

I've been working on a idea for about a YEAR NOW and I think I'm almost
comfortable with it. So I wanted to run it by you experienced geeks ;-)
and see if you think it's playable.
You see I wanted to create special warriors from Wizard and Elder
Alignments that were enhanced by magic in their dealings with their
opposite alignments. These warriors would be greater than regular
warriors, I call them half-breeds. They are made from rare half-races of
their natural magic alignment. Half-races made possible by humans combined
with Dwarves, Elves or Faerries. For stats I just averaged the strengths
and weaknesses of the races combined. From each of these races a
supernatural force can be earned by the character. From the Dwarves and
Humans the magic warrior is a Paladin, Elves and Humans make Rangers, and
Faerries and Humans make Monks.

If this is confusing, it's because I'm on drugs...  :P  ...If you have
questions or ideas, be gentle.

I've done something similar in the past.  Of course I just can't pict=
ure
a title like Monk as a Warrior :).  Of course then theres the Kung Fu=
 monks
we see.  So go figure.

How do they 'earn' the supernatural force?  I would make it like
a magic buy system or something.  I mean just getting supernatural
will is pretty important. =20

You could balance their effectriveness by say they are weakened
in the Middle World and work at full in Upper.  Or you could limit
the Supernatural forces like a magic system. =20
