Okay a bit of background on this idea. For those that remember Mongoose Runequest both first and second, followed with Legend. If you do, this idea will be familiar to you, and would have been called Heroic Abilities. Mainly, I was dissatified with SP Mystic Power route, and thought this would be a better idea.
This is split into two: Gifts, Training. These are abilities that tap into the aspects of magic, of heroism, and are no lesser for it.
Gifts: These are received from some external source whether a Deity, Higher power and cover a lot of abilities that are not actually proper magic spells , but certainly magic in nature. This covers things like all Paladin, or Champion related class abilities.
Training: These are available through seeking reclusive masters. This would cover any particular martial art type abilities that a fighter or monk could have, ranger abilities, or in fact from any class where these 'abilities' would be beyond the normal.
Costs. These are the same for both Gifts and Training. Levels 1-5 cost 1 PP, 6-10 cost 2 PP, 11-15 cost 3 PP, 16-20 cost 4 PP.
Now I am aware that this could be covered as AB Gifted, but felt this deserved something slightly different. This way you could have a clerical (magic user) / martial monk, or clerical / martial paladin. You could a martial fighter / mage this way too.
I figure this way you could literally plumb the depths of some of the Legenday Classes books for PF and convert some of the stuff for your own games.
Thoughts?
