The Modern Path: Arcana of the Modern World

by GRC Team

Follow the Modern Path to a walk on the magical side! Arcana of the Modern World explores the different ways to incorporate the use of magic in a modern-style RPG genre. Building on the foundations of the Modern Heroes of the Modern World. To compliment the Modern Hero class, there are new feats, traits, trainings, & difficulties; along with new magical Archetypes to customize the spell caster that you want to play! A major update to the just about all the old material and ARCANE OF THE FORBIDDEN - This setting is where magic is extremely rare and difficult to cast. This type of setting is typically what you would find in a modern “horror” setting. ARCANE HEROES - This setting is where magic is more common and what is normally found in the core rules of a fantasy based system. This section expands on the archetypes found in “The Modern Path – Heroes of the Modern World” ARCANE OF THE MIND - This setting is not so much of a magic setting but rather a system of unique mental powers called “Psychic” abilities. Very similar to the more powerful psionics found in many fantasy settings but adjusted to provide a modern approach. ARCANE OF THE SPELLCRAFTER - This setting is an alternate spellcasting system where magic is broken down into its basic form and can be applied in almost any configuration the user wishes. Also included is a free Hero Lab’s dataset that can be found in your Hero Lab’s software “Find Updates” section.
