[1] Self only.

[2] Starry Weapon. Regular. Causes any weapon to become infused with
starstuff.  This does not harm the user or the weapon, but does +2
damage to most foes if it penetrates armor, and +3 to certain
creatures, notably earth-magic zombies and earth elementals.  Add this
bonus after all other damage is calculated-- for instance, an
"impaling" starry attack is still only good for +2 damage, not +4.
Duration: 1 minute.  Cost: 3 to cast, 1 to maintain.  Time to cast: 3
seconds.  Item: A weapon that becomes starry whenever wielded, at no
energy cost to the user.  Cost to create: 750 energy, $2000 spell
materials.

[3] Treat as Ice Dagger.  Caster hurls a spike of starlight that does
impaling damage and disappears.

[4] Treat as Frostbite.  Tissue is starbitten rather than frostbitten.

[5] Astrology.  Can only be cast at night under a starry sky.
Time-of-night modifiers do not apply.


Star mages are very rare.  Star-aspected celestial "magery" is an
inborn trait; it evinces itself during adolescence.  Star mages do not
study magic; new powers appear pretty much at random.  (I.E., GM's
decision.)  The star mage improves his skills through practice and
meditation on the starry sky.

Star magic (except for astrology) is affected by time of day and cloud
cover.

Character design: It costs 10 points for one level of Star Magery, 20
points for two, and 30 points for three.  No star mage has been known
to learn ordinary secular magic.  For an additional five points, the
character may learn clerical magic.  Clerical investment et al is
extra.  The only famous Star Mage cleric worshipped Fate.
