The Magical Materials


The five magical materials are the cornerstone of any artifact of power. Though usually not enough to empower an item and of itself, the material shapes and enhances the latent magic of other rare ingredients and brings them to the fore. The influence of the Magical Material itself, beyond this effect, is quite small and is usually confined to any Magical Material Bonus.

Jade

  • White Jade gives a +2 damage for a melee weapon, or +100/20 yards for a ranged weapon. The weapon also applies a +1 difficulty to resist knockback or stunning effects caused by or channeled through the weapon.
  • Green Jade gives +1 damage for a melee weapon, or +50/10 yards for a ranged weapon. The weapon also steals one mote of Essence from living creatures injured by the attack, giving it to the wielder.
  • Red Jade gives +3 damage for a melee weapon, or +2 damage and +50/10 yards for a ranged weapon.
  • Black Jade gives +1 damage and +2 defense for a melee weapon, and +1 damage and +2 accuracy for a ranged weapon.
  • Blue Jade gives +1 to damage and +2 to rate to both melee and ranged weapons.

All of the above bonuses are available to any Dragon-Blooded, not just one of the appropriate Aspect. Only one bonus applies, even if a weapon includes multiple different types of Jade.
