Chapter I

Modern Magika
 2

Modern Magika is a supplemental book for the Ops and Tactics roleplaying game, focused around elements of fantasy, magic, and
the supernatural. It makes elves, dwarves and other fantastic races available to create characters from, and introduces several new
systems of magic with highly customizable effects, along with artifacts and new equipment associated with them. Standard magecraft
revolves around the user’s intelligence, and draws its power from written words and formulas of power. Whether a spell is scrawled
with crayon or scribed on fine parchment with high-quality mystical inks, the pen is mighty. Psionics revolve around the user’s wisdom,
and draws its power directly from the mind and body of those practicing it. Whether that power is focused within or without, psions are
flexible and able to shift their focus on the fly. Incantations revolve around the user’s charisma, and draw their power from spoken
words and languages of power. Whether summoning shadowy beasts or inflicting hexes, words can very much hurt you. With the
inclusion of adventuring equipment, Modern Magika can be used to run modern fantasy games as readily as it can handle a more
fantastical game, or anything in-between.

Modern Magika introduces new races that may be played, that • Orcish Karkarash Proper, Karkarash Gutter, Karkarash
each have their own benefits and penalties. Races are not limited in Technical, Karkarash Expressive, Kardali*
the Occupations that may be selected These races are considered
sapient and have the ability to freely take feats as any sapient can.
*This is an ancient language. In the modern world it is spoken
only by scholars, or in some cases by small populations in isolated
Ops & Tactics and Race corners of the world.

For Ops & Tactics games every playable character is

considered human and thus, a few stats are implied. In Modern
Magika, each race has their own separate character stats. The
Humans
changes are below.

The Stylus
The stylus is a base attack, simply channeling raw magical
energy through a natural material, to primarily cause harm. A
mage of any spellschool can create a stylus, as this is usually the
first spell any mage learns. Styli are often the writing utensil they
use to write spells.
A stylus must be a rod-like object that is 1’ or less in length
and be comprised at least 75% of formerly living material such as
wood and plant material, bone, flesh, cloth, hair, fur, feathers, or
natural rubber.
In order to craft a stylus, a mage scribes a spell for 0 SP,
places an object of 1’ or less in the center, and then releases the
spell. Only the mage who originally scribed the spell may use the
stylus and only one stylus may be crafted by the mage at a time.
If a mage creates a new stylus while their old stylus exists, the new
one is now their stylus and the old stylus returns to normal.
Creating a stylus out of an object does not remove its original
properties, so if a character makes a stylus out of a weapon, or
any object, it still may be used for its original purpose. Styli appear
as normal objects to all but the stylus’ creator, who sees it with a
very faint glow and can sense its presence as long as it is within 5
feet.

rather than try to go through it. If teleportation can end without
ending up in an object, it will, closer to its original location than

Fingerprint Activator This upgrade replaces the button activator

with a fingerprint scanner on the hilt of the psiblade. In order to
activate the psiblade, the user places their finger on the reader, and
the blade reads the print of the user. If the fingerprint is recognized,
the psiblade activates. Up to 3 sets of fingerprints may be stored in
the psiblade. A psiblade may only have one activator upgrade at a
time. This increases the psiblade activation time by 1 Combat Point.

Multi-Crystal Module This upgrade installs a module that allows

for multiple crystals to be installed in the blade, allowing for the
instant changing of crystals without having to dissemble the psiblade.
The module can hold two crystals at a time, and it takes 2 Combat
Points to change crystals.

Natural Blade Crystal This upgrade replaces the synthetic blade

crystal with a natural gem, giving the blade a toned down color,
but a more powerful blade. This upgrade grants the psiblade a
+2 damage bonus. Natural blades have the same color choices as
synthetic crystals.

Password Activator This upgrade replaces the button activator

with six smaller buttons, usually aligned in a circle or in a line, that
must be pressed in the correct succession in order to activate the
psiblade. The user chooses six numbers between 1 and 6 and enters
them in the psiblade when this upgrade is performed. Anyone who
does not know the code to the psiblade may not activate it. It takes
2 Combat Points to enter the password. A psiblade may only have
one activator upgrade at a time.

Solid Crystal Battery This upgrade replaces the crystal polymer

battery with a crystal battery made from a single solid piece of
crystal. When charged, this battery lasts for 5 days and only has
to be charged by a psion every 5 days instead of every day.

Stun Blade Crystal This upgrade replaces the blade crystal with
a glass gem, giving the blade a white color and a weakened
blade. The psiblade’s damage is changed to non-lethal bludgeoning
damage.
