Modern Magic, Volume Two

Now Available!

Mo' mojo! Mo' magic!

Magic is no longer confined to dank dungeons where half-mad hermits perform timeless rites. Spellcasters can now be found in every walk of life, from the bedroom to the boardroom. Ancient traditions mixed with the hippest trends result in spells and trinkets that are as chic as they are powerful.

This modern d20 System supplement picks up where best selling Modern Magic, Volume One left off—-bringing magic and spellcasting into the 21st century. A spellcaster's creativity is the only limit when centuries old traditions meet cutting edge technology.

Modern Magic, Volume Two includes:
  • New spells created with a modern perspective, such as kill switch and cranial hard drive.
  • New magic items the combine cutting edge technology with arcane powers, such as closed-circuit stickers and Jimmy's credit card.
  • Rules for Voudon spellcasting, the Loa, and ritual possessions.
  • Details on using forensic science to investigate magical crimes, including the new Arcane Investigator advanced class.
  • Talismans, natural elements, and rituals that nonspellcasters can use to protect themselves from magical attack.

Modern Magic, Volume Two is the second in a two-volume series aimed designed to bring a fresh, contemporary feel to the magic and spellcasting in your modern d20 System game.
