Magic Chests! Empty Magic Chests!

Post  Xel Unknown Fri Sep 14, 2012 2:12 am

I was watching some Minecraft Thumbcraft video and then once I came here I thought to add something I saw in there that seemed like a cool idea. Also adding in a skill that is inspired by a move I've seen in the X-Box Indie Live Game named Diehard Dungeon. I give you all MAGIC CHESTS! They come in four flavors... Basic, Earth Pony, Unicorn, and Pegasus.

Basic Magic Chest:

Earth Pony Chest:

Pegasus Chest:

Unicorn Chest:
Spoiler:

Edit1: I'm now got work done on all four chests... But I'm nowhere near done yet.
Edit2: More work was done on the Basic, Earth Pony, and Pegasus Chests... Still not done.
Edit3: More work done on the Pegasus Chest.
Edit4: Added more info for both the Pegasus Chest and the Unicorn Chest. (Note to self: I need to start working on this stuff when I have more time...)
Edit5: Retooled the Combat Info for the Basic, Earth Pony, and Pegasus Chests. I plan to retool the Non-Combat Talents the same way in a later edit.

Interesting idea.

The Earth Pony chest looks pretty powerful. Curious to see what you thought up for the other two.

My only hope is that I don't make it OP... And have them all have their own apeal to use. Even the Basic One... I'm still working on posting editing everything as we speak.

Yeah... Any help on better wording the Combat Chest is DEEPLY WELCOMED! Also any other comments on how far I've got in telling the facts about the chests is welcomed too.

I really like the concept of magical chests following you around. Aside from that, I don't really have much to add, but the concept of magical chests keeps reminding me of magical keys.

Magical Keys
Magical Keys, sometimes called Anti-matter Keys, will open any door or lock, but are quite fragile and tend to break when used. When using one, roll a DC 20 Mechanics check. If it fails, the key breaks, but the lock or door opens regardless. It takes the proper materials and a DC 25 Arcane check to make or repair one.

Skeleton Keys
Skeleton Keys are like Magical Keys, but much sturdier. They will only break on a DC 10 Mechanics check. But it takes a DC 35 Arcane check and the proper materials to create one.

*Note*
Images shamelessly ripped from Dragon Warrior, and more specifically, from here.

You had a good idea, no thanks needed. Anyway, the DC 10 was to reflect you had to be absolute butterhooves to mess up a skeleton key.

I guess that makes sense, but not totally sure if one is allowed to make 10 DC skill checks for stuff. >.>

DC's can be set at whatever the GM wants. The GM Guidebook sets 15 as easy because the absolute lowest someone can have for an attribute is 5, which makes rolling a d20 have 55% chance at succes.

Ok... Now I retooled the whole Combat Areas to be clearer and work like Traits. I'll next work on editing the Non-Combat Talents in a similar way. Also need to get more done on the Unicorn Chest...

I've always liked the Magic Keys idea of mine and felt the need to return to it.  Unfortunately,  all the current official items seem to have combat usage.  Not sure where an item with a non-combat usage would fit.

Magical Keys - [cost ???] - 1/Day

"Magic Keys!  They unlock any door!  Wouldst thou like to purchase one?"

Magical Keys, sometimes called Anti-matter Keys, will open any door or lock, but are quite fragile and can't take much handling.

Skeleton Keys - [cost ???] - 3/Day
Skeleton Keys are like Magical Keys, but much sturdier.
