Meta-Magic
Meta-Magics are special abilities that modify the way other abilities are cast.
- Meta-Magics do not follow the typical casting process.
- To use a meta-magic, the caster must say the meta-magic incantation while casting the ability that they wish to modify. It must be said after the target is declared but before the incantation for the modified spell.
- Below is an example of someone casting Hold Person with the Extension meta-magic against a player named Robin.
- Meta-Magics are expended once their incantation is said, whether or not the modified spell is completed.
- Casters cannot use multiple meta-magics simultaneously on a single ability.
