Ordinary Magician


Let's start with maximum fire power.

-Marisa Kirisame, human Ordinary Magician

Ordinary Magicians are generalist arcane magic users who weren't lucky enough to be born with great natural talent like sorcerors, or getting a fancy education like wizards. In a world filled with dangerous yet wonderful magic, they seek to unlock its secrets by hard work, perseverance, and grabbing everything that looks valuable to help advance their research.

MAKING A Ordinary Magician
Ordinary Magicians combine an unique blend of magic martial arts with arcane spells.
Abilities: Intelligence is the main ability for a Ordinary Magician. Con is useful to offset her low HD and Fort saves, as well as Dexterity for ranged attacks and reflex saves.
Races: Ordinary Magicians must be of a basic LA 0 humanoid race. No templated humanoids either. They're not called “Ordinary” for nothing.

Weapon and Armor Proficiencies: A Ordinary Magician is proficient with Simple weapons.

Maneuvers: A Ordinary Magician learns maneuver from the Love-Coloured Magic school and one other martial school of her choice. If the second school demands any special prerequisite (like Ancient Temple needing a feat) the Ordinary Magician must fulfill it as well. Her Iniator level is equal to her Ordinary Magician level, and she can only learn maneuvers of a level no bigger than half (IL+1).


Ordinary Magicians prefer to go all out. If she casts a spell without using maneuvers that round, she recovers a number of expended maneuvers equal to 1/3 the level of the spell cast, rounded up (1 spell recovered in the case of 0th level spells). Those spells can be ones binded to a Love-Coloured Magic stance. In alternative, she may spend 5 minutes taking notes and samples from the surroundings to recover and change her prepared maneuvers.



At 4th level, and every even-numbered level afterwards, the Ordinary Magician can swap one of her older maneuvers with a new one she qualifies for from one of her two schools (the new one doesn't need to be of the same level of the older one).

Ordinary Magic: An Ordinary Magician prepares and cast arcane spells from the wizard list. She starts play knowing six 0th level spells and three first level spells. At each new Ordinary Magician level she learns two new spells of a level no bigger than half (Ordinary Magician level+1). She keeps her spells known in spellbooks, and can add extra ones like a wizard. She must prepare her spells in advance each morning with one hour of stealing collecting ingredients from the surroundings. Unlike other arcane casters, each of her spell slots can take a spell of any level she learned from Ordinary Magician. Since her spell slots don't have levels, she can't use metamagic that would increase effective spell levels with them. She also gains a number of 0th level spell slots equal to her Int mod.

A Being made of Magic and Red Dream: An Ordinary magician is an ephemereal being, living for the short moment, knowing well that her existence in this plane is a brief moment when compared with most other magic beings. That may look like a weakness to others, but is actually a great source of strength. If the Ordinary Magician gains a template or her creature type is permanently changed or she attains immortality, she must instantly swap her Ordinary Magician levels for Youkai Magician levels. She may transfer her Magical Furnace's magic essence (see below) to a Magical Grimoire.The Ordinary Magician can never be forced to become immortal or permanently change her creature type or gain a Template, she'll always shrugg off such kind of effects

Word

Greedy Magician: At 2nd level the Ordinary Magician can search for traps as a rogue and use her Int instead of Dex for Sleight of Hand and Open Lock and Int instead of  Cha for Bluff, Gather Information and Use Magic Device checks.

Move and I'll shoot!!
I messed up.
I mean, shoot and I'll move. In a flash.

Magical Furnace: At 3rd level the Ordinary Magician can craft an unique trinket to help her channel her magic.

(click to show/hide)

-It costs an initial 600 GP, and can be further enanched with magic as a masterwork weapon, but only generic enhancements that would work with any kind of weapon and attacks, not effects that would only work on melee attacks or effects that would only trigger on missiles for example.
-Each “normal” +1 enhancement bonus to attack and damage rolls on the magical furnace increases the DC of spells that deal HP damage by 1.
-Damage-inflicting weapon enhancements applied to the Magical Furnace such as Frost and Fire apply to spells that deal HP damage as well.
-The Ordinary Magician must hold her Magical Furnace in at least one free hand while casting the spell to gain the above benefits.
-The Ordinary Magican can only benefit from a total level of enhancements from her Magical Furnace up to 1/2 her Ordinary Magician level.
-If the Ordinary Magician tries to use a stronger Magical Furnace than that, she can pick which enhancement(s) to benefit with each spell cast up to her limit. So for example if a 4th level Ordinary Magician (maximum of +2 enhancement) wields a +1 Frost Fire Magical furnace (total of +3 magical enhancement), she could only benefit from a total of +2 enhancement from that Magical Furnace. So with each spell she could choose to either apply either the "normal" +1 bonus plus Frost, or Frost plus Fire, or Fire plus "normal" +1 bonus.
-The hand holding the Magical Furnace can still be used to cast spells.

Magician of Red Dreams: At 4th level the Ordinary Magician can write down Supernatural maneuvers and stances from other beings she witnessed using in her spellbooks, just as if they were spells learned from scrolls, as long as they aren't of an higher level than 1/2 her Ordinary Magician level. Each morning when preparing spells, she may swap up to 1/4 her base maneuvers from Love-Coloured magic for maneuvers learned this way. She may use her spellcraft skill/ranks instead of the those maneuver's normal skill, and Int instead of the main stat for those schools. She must still meet any extra prerequites like Ancient Temple needing a feat.

Dark Flight: At 5th level the Ordinary Magician can fly at twice her base speed with good maneuverability in some bizzarre way, like holding into an unattended household object like a broom or oven (it counts towards her carrying capacity), or simply sprouting wings out of nowhere.

Magical Recycled Bomb: At 6th level the Ordinary Magician gains Brew Potion as a bonus feat (if she already had it, she can pick another feat she qualifies for). In addition once per day as a move action, you can pull from your clothes a surprise potion containing any one spell from your spellbooks, up to -1 level of the highest spell level you can cast, that you can apply  to a target by throwing it as a ranged touch attack with a range increment of 10 feet. The spell's effects are exactly as if you had brewed the potion. If you pull the potion and don't throw it, or it misses, it crashes and the contents are wasted. If the spell demanded expensive components or exp, you must pay them.

At 9th, 12th, 15th and 18th levels you can use this ability an additional time per day.

Hard Worker: At 7th level the Ordinary Magician can add her Int mod to Concentration checks, Fortitude saves, and Con checks.

The Strange Magician: At 8th level the Ordinary Magician can add her Int mod to Initiative checks, Dex checks and Reflex saves.

Boldly Timid: At 10th level the Ordinary Magician can add her Int mod to AC and Will saves.

Devildom Torch: At 11h level, if you use a Swift action before throwing a Magical Recycled Bomb, it splits upon impact! You can target another two creatures with the same potion effect, make new attack rolls but consider the point of origin the first target. If the spell demanded expensive components or exp, you must pay them for each target. In addition she can now brew her potions with spells of any level she can cast, including spells that normally couldn't be made in potion form. The Ordinary Magician can apply each of those potions to a target by throwing each as a ranged touch attack with a range increment of 10 feet as a fullround action. If such a potion misses, it crashes and the contents are wasted. If the spell demanded expensive components or exp, you must pay them.


The Magician Passing By: At 13th level the Ordinary Magician benefits from a permanent Freedom of Movement effect, except it only works against magic effects, including spells and Su ones. Indirect divinations fail to produce any acurate information about her, Knowledge checks are made with a penalty equal to her Ordinary Magician level, and Alarms don't trigger (altough other magic traps still trigger normally).

Whatever I Want: At 14th level at the start of her turn the Ordinary Magician automatically removes all charm, fear, compulsion and domination effects on herself.

Someone to Fight, Someone to Mock: At 16th level if the Ordinary Magician faces an opponent and they run away, she gains a +2 to attack rolls, damage rolls, IL, CL, saves and Save DCs against that same opponent if she meets them in the future. This bonus can acumulate for multiple ecounters where the enemy runs away, but resets to zero if the Ordinary Magician is the one escaping.

Magical Research "Deep Ecological Bomb": At 17th level by spending a swift action before throwing a Magical Recycled Bomb, you can make it so that it doesn't break on impact. Instead, it starts glowing, and at the start of your next turn it explodes in a 20 feet radius burst. Creatures inside the radius automatically fail their savesagainst  the Deep Ecological Bomb, and it ignores any and all resistances and immunities. Plants will not grow on the affected area for a millenium. If the spell demanded expensive components or exp, you must pay them for each target.

Extremely Ordinary: At 19th level the Ordinary Magician has a 50% chance of removing any ill non-instantaneous non-permanent effects from herself  at the start of her turn (roll once for such effect).

The Magician Representing Mortals: Mortals always had to struggle in a world filled with mighty immortal beings of all kinds. At 20th level the Ordinary Magician picks one option from the list below at the start of each day. It lasts until the start of her next day, upon which she can pick another.

(click to show/hide)

Looks like it's gonna be a cool night-The Ordinary Magician becomes immune to enviromental effects and gains immunity to one element of her choice, and ignores all non-activated abilities from opponents with an equal elemental subtype except for saves, AC and HP.


I'll take my boring spring, corpse girl-The Ordinary Magician becomes immune to [Death] effects, energy drain, ability damage and ability drain, and ignores all non-activated abilities from undead opponents except for saves, AC and HP.

Yeah, I'm insane to begin with-The Ordinary Magician becomes immune to harmful Mind-Affecting effects, and ignores all non-activated defensive abilities from outsider opponents except for saves, AC and HP.

Sturm und Drang-The Ordinary Magician's attacks have 50% chance of ignoring any and all non-activated defensive abilities of the target except basic saves, HP, and AC

No need of any gods these days- The Ordinary Magician becomes immune to salient divine abilities, and ignores any defensive salient divine abilties on the target.

Send both you and your power to oblivion -The Ordinary Magician's attacks automatically end any martial Stance on the target,and ignores all non-activated defensive abilities from martial initiator opponents except for saves, AC and HP.

Now, bitch, get out of the way -The Ordinary Magician's attacks automatically dispel any ongoing divine spells on the target,
and ignores all non-activated defensive abilities from opponents able to cast divine spells except for Saves, AC and HP.

Everlasting youth and life...
Huh.
If it's going to bring me a boring life,
I'd rather die!

Love-Coloured Magic

Concentrate your mind.
Mutter the spell to Mini-Hakkero tenderly.
Aim at someone you don't like.
Now unleash your annihilation of love!-Marisa Kirisame, Love-Coloured Magic mistress

Its true origins stolen from somewhere else unknown, Love-Coloured Magic is a school that was refined by a wicked witch after years of battling all kinds of supernatural beings and mighty warriors with little more than blasting spells. Forced to face neverending hordes of fairies mortal monsters just to meet face to face with their mercyless masters, she developed a series of martial arts that allowed her to keep her magic going for extended periods of combat.

Favored Weapons: Broom (Quarterstaff), Wands, rods.
Key Skill: Spellcraft.

Sealed Maneuvers-Magic always comes with strings attached. When you learn Magic-Coloured maneuvers, you gain limited acess to some special sealed maneuvers. Those don't need to be prepared, but only be used when all of your prepared maneuvers are expended, and only once each until you recover maneuvers again.
You automatically learn a sealed maneuver when you know Love-Coloured Magic maneuvers equal to twice the sealed maneuver's level, at least one of which must be of the same level or higher. So for example to learn the Fifth sealed maneuver, Witching Blast, you would need to know ten Love-Coloured Magic maneuvers, and at least one of them to be 5th level or higher.
Sealed maneuvers don't count towards unlocking other sealed maneuvers.

 It ain't magic if it ain't flashy!

In order to capture people's hearts,
 you gotta come in from the fringes first like this!

The Witch's Ball
Prerequisite:Casket of Stars, CL and IL 3.
Benefit:As long as you're holding a broom and you casted a spell on the same or previous round, you can use the Spellcraft skill as if it was the Tumble skill, wheter you're walking or flying. You also gain an extra benefit until the end of your next turn depending on the level of the spell you casted. You only gain those benefits if you know a Love-Colored Magic maneuver of the same level or higher than the spell casted. You can choose to gain a lower level benefit than the one corresponding to the spell level you used. In addition you can use each Sealed maneuver you know an extra time before recovering maneuvers.

Dimensional Dream
Prerequisite:Casket of Stars,  CL and IL 3
Benefit: While on a Love-Colored Magic Stance, you can use Scrolls, Wands or Staves for your Love-Colored Magic maneuvers that demand the casting of spells, as long as the spell being replicated by the item satisfies the usual requirements for such maneuvers.

In addition you can use each Sealed maneuver you know an extra time before recovering maneuvers.

This kinda feeling, it's... Knowing her, she'd probably say,
"It sure feels great". I hate the night, though.
There's only weirdos around at this hour.

Magus Night

You can still use the other options 1/day each while on a Love-Colored stance, but not if you already used another option in the same round. In addition you can use each Sealed maneuver you know an extra time before recovering maneuvers.

Sorry, no can do. At least, not until I make
all the magic power here mine.

Selene's Light-If at the start of your turn you're suffering from a non-instantaneous ill effect from a spell, SLA, or supernatural maneuver that was inflicted upon you last round, you can attempt a spellcraft check even if you can't take actions, with a DC equal to 10+spell/maneuver level+highest stat mod of the user.

If you succeed by less than 5, you shake off the effect but can't take any more actions for the round besides immediate actions.

If you succeed by between 5 and 15, you shake off the effect but can't take your standard action.

If you succeed by between 16 and 25, you shake off the effect but can't take your move action.

If you succeed by between 26 or more, you shake off the effect and can take your normal actions and heal one HP per point your spellcraft check beat the DC above 26, up to the HP you had before being affected by the ill magic. You can also heal negative levels, ability drain or ability damage inflicted by the magic at the rate of 5 HP per unit of those.

Okay. You shot, I moved.
Now, the real battle starts here.

Cold Inferno-When you cast a damaging spell with a range other than melee, you may reduce its range and area to 1/10th to have it deal +33% damage.













Himorogi, Burn in Violet-Once per round when you deal damage to an opponent, you can roll a Spellcraft check as a free action and compare it to their CR. The following benefit happens depending on the result:

Heehee, I'll show you a bit more... Like this... And this, and this...
And this! Can you dodge this? And finally!! How was that? Amazing, right? 
Eek!
Heehee. And finally, my strongest magic!!

Fail Spellcraft check-Opponent glows brightly in a color of your choice for 1 round, suffering a -40 penalty on hide checks.

Beat the target's CR by 1 or more: Target suffers a Faery Fire effect for 1 round.

Beat the target's CR by 11 or more: As above, plus target suffers a -2 penalty to AC and saves for 1 round.

Beat the target's CR by 21 or more: As above, plus target can't recover HP and all damage it takes is lethal for 1 round.

Beat the target's CR by 31 or more: As above, plus everybody looking at the target benefits from a True Sight effect for 1 round.

For each extra 10 points you beat the target's CR from there, the effects last one extra round.

The big Includes the small.

Wide Master-When you cast a spell you may roll a spellcraft check as a free action. Its range increases up to 10 feet and any area radius increases up to 5 feet for each 5 points you beat a DC of 10.











Machine Gun Spark-When you cast a spell trough a Love-Colored maneuver, you can cast it twice by lowering the DC, CL and IL by 3 and also counting as if having -3 ranks in Spellcraft, but you must choose different targets/areas for each cast.


My firepower doesn't settle down to roasting chicken, does it?

I'm going to defeat you and make that power mine!
Though if you're sleeping, winning'll be a piece of cake. ♥

Steal the Precious Thing-You must have used one of the above options on the last round and your opponent to have failed at least one save against one of your Love-Colored maneuvers and be adjacent to your target. As a standard action roll a Spellcraft check opposed by the target's best skill check, them taking a penalty of -5 for each 10% of their max HP they have missing. You take a possession from them of your choice that will allow you to replicate  one spell, SLA or supernatural maneuver of a level no higher than you can can use that your knew your victim knew, after which the item works as normal. You must still pay any extra gold and/or exp costs if they would normally be required (even if it was a SLA). Your victim cannot use that spell/maneuver again for 24 hours, and you cannot carry more than one "charged" precious thing at a time, you must previously spend them or store them in a safe location. A safe location for the purposes of this feat would be a structure that is not temporary (such as a Mage's Magnificent Mansion), does not move (such as a vehicle), and cannot be carried with you (such as a Bag of Holding). If the structure is destroyed, then the items stored there lose their charge.

Totally enjoying it. At least I am.
Well, I'm enjoying myself too! At least more than you, Marisa.

Aria of Forbidden Magic
Prerequisite:Knowledge of either one Love-Colored Magic stance or one Doll Judgement Stance.
Benefit: While on a Love-Colored Magic stance, you can control one doll as in Puppetter Theater. While that Doll is alive, you can use any one maneuver from a Forbidden School you've ever observed by expending a Doll Judgement maneuver of your own of the same level, using your ranks in Spellcraft instead of the usual skill and Int instead of the usual main stat, but you pay double forbidden cost and suffer its Forbidden Sign for the next hour. The Forbidden Maneuver must be channeled trough the doll and cannot be of an higher level than your current Love-Colored magic stance.

While on a Doll Judgement stance, when you use a love-colored magic maneuver, you may channel it through all your currently controled dolls, as long as each of them selects a different target/area for the spell, and the spell isn't of an higher level than your current Doll Judgement stance.

If you are adjacent to an ally that is also a Love-Colored Magic or Doll Judgement user and who also has this feat you may treat yourself as if you were under the stance of your adjacent ally for the purpose of this feat only.

Maneuvers explanations:

(click to show/hide)

(click to show/hide)

-Unless otherwise noted, every Love-Coloured Magic maneuver is supernatural maneuver that can affect incorporeal and ethereal opponents.
-Spells channeled trough Love-Coloured Magic don't cause attacks of opportunity and count as Su abilities, altough you must still pay any Exp and Gold costs.
-The DC of a spell channeled trough Love-Coloured Magic is replaced by the DC of the maneuver.
-If you have a Magical Furnace/Grimoire, you can add its DC bonus to the Love-Coloured Magic maneuver's DC.
-You can choose for any elemental damage dealt by the spell to become untyped "light" damage, much like a Sunburst spell. A creature to which sunlight is harmful or unnatural takes +50% damage from this "light" damage.
-Love-Coloured Magic cannot be combined with any kind of metamagic.
-If a channeled spell demanded attack rolls and is made to affect an area, you roll once and compare against each target inside.
-If a channeled spell consists of multiple projectiles, like Magic Missile or Scorching Ray, and is made to affect an area, each projectile is considered to have struck each target in the area once (and never more than once). Any maneuver bonus only applies to the first projectile. A spell with projectiles that are required to affect different targets are merely allowed to choose their targets from within the specified area.
-Channeled spells that usually would have a single target and are converted into an AoE count as  multiple applications of the same effect (aka don't stack with themselves).
-Love Coloured Magic maneuvers override the range of channeled spells, but not actual rolls. Thus you still get penalties for firing into melee without precise shot, but allow melee spells to affect far enemies.
-Spells that demand an extra condition to trigger or must be discharged after the casting to actually deal damage, like Fire Trap or explosive runes, do not count for "a spell that deals HP damage".
-Spells that can replicate other spells, such as wish, shades and similar ones cannot be combined with Love Colored Magic.

1st level

Just get out of the way.
I'm in a hurry.

You don't provoke attacks of opportunity from this movement.
If there is a creature directly above you when you use this counter, they take damage equal to the distance you rise unless they suceed on a Reflex save. Either way they're moved to an adjacent square to make room for you to move. Inanimate objects take damage automatically, but aren't moved unless you deal enough damage to destroy them.

You also heal HP to yourself equal to half the damage dealt. You can swap 20 points of this healing for a Lesser Restoration on yourself, 40 for a Restoration effect on yourself, or 80 for a Greater Restoration on yourself.

Duration: 1 round
Save: 18+Int mod

When you initiate this boost you create one floating orb around you for each 3 IL you have, to a maximum of 8 orbs. Each fills a 5-feet square adjacent to your position and they move with you.
Each deals damage of one kind chosen from Fire, Acid, Cold, Electricity, Fire, Sonic, Positive Energy, Negative Energy or  Untyped to any creatures they pass trough, altough no single creature may be damaged more than once per orb in the same turn. Each orb must be of a different kind.

Cold-Slowed for 1 round, Entangled for 1 round if they save
Electricity-Paralyzed for 1 round, staggered for 1 round if they save.
Sonic-Dazed for 1 round, Deafened for 1 round if they save.

Become the wind. It feels good to fly at extreme speeds
Her ultimate charging attack where she turns herself into a comet. Plain straight, very her-ish.

When you prepare/recover spells, for every 16 ranks you have in Spellcraft you can choose to bond this stance to a single spell you prepare that deals HP damage, up to 1 level lower than the max spell level you can prepare.  The spell must directly deal damage on its own, without being affected by any feats or class abilities.  It cannot be affected by any metamagic either.
Until you prepare/recover spells again, you can cast that spell whitout expending a spell slot, including for Love-Coloured Magic maneuvers, as long as you're in this Stance.
If it had a duration other than instantaneous, change it to 1 round. Its save DC becomes the same as this Stance, unless channeled trough a higher-level maneuver.

While on this stance, whenever you cast a spell that deals HP damage (including ones cast with Love-Coloured Magic), instead of its regular targets, you create a sphere of magic energy with a radius of 5 feet per 3 IL centered in yourself. You then  move up to 200 feet per IL (minimum 50 feet) along with the sphere.
Creatures and objects trough which this sphere passed trough are affected by the spell, but they can't be affected more than once per round from each spell cast.
If there's magic or physical obstacles in your way, you can attempt to dispel/break trough them when moving this way, using your ranks in Spellcraft+Int mod for any checks. You can even dispel normally undispellable effects, such as Wall of Force, or even an Anti-Magic field, but then the DC is 6 higher.
You can move over creatures in your path. They can attempt to move out of the way, being affected by the spell with a +3 DC and taking extra damage equal to one Spellcraft check from you.
If they choose to stand in your way, they can perform an attack of opportunity, but then the DC increases by 6 and they take extra damage equal to two spellcraft checks from you.
After you've casted a total of 30 combined levels of spells while under this stance, you automatically exit it and cannot enter it again until you've casted another 30 combined levels of spells.

[Raineh Daze]

Ordinary Magic: An Ordinary Magician prepares and cast arcane spells from the wizard list. She starts play knowing six 0th level spells and three first level spells. At each new Ordinary Magician level she learns two new spells of a level up to bigger than half (Ordinary Magician level+1). She keeps her spells known in spellbooks, and can add extra ones like a wizard. She must prepare her spells in advance each morning with one hour of stealing collecting ingredients from the surroundings. Unlike other arcane casters, each of her spell slots can take a spell of any level she learned from Ordinary Magician. Since her spell slots don't have levels, she can't use metamagic that would increase effective spell levels with them. She also gains a number of 0th level spell slots equal to her Int mod.

Currently allows you to take 9th level spells at 2nd level (should be 'no bigger than').

A Being made of Magic and Red Dream: An Ordinary magician starts as someone normal that aspires to be something greater. If the Ordinary Magician gains a template or her creature type is permanently changed, she must instantly swap her Ordinary Magician levels into something else.

Er... not terribly sure I agree with this. It does rather deny the fact that most Youkai Magicians are basically the same thing, but with a few spells that work around that inconvenient ageing and stop needing to eat from interfering with research. I say most, as we have Byakuren and Alice on one side, and Patchouli on the other.

Dark Flight: At 5th level the Ordinary Magician can fly at twice her base speed with good maneuverability in some bizzarre way, like holding into an unattended household object like a broom or oven, or simply sprouting wings out of nowhere.

And thus the witch-y flight method is a bad idea as you could lose your grip.

Will look at the school tomorrow.

The thread title says "Cluss"

What's wrong with "A Being made of Magic and Red Dream", Raineh? It doesn't seem to be a problem from my point of view :/

I like the fact that as currently written, you could potentially lose flight mid-flight if you are made to lose your grip on whatever is letting you fly.
It just means Featherfall should always be available

The 19th & 20th levels of the Ordinary Magician class short are formatted wrong 

Extremely Ordinary: At 19th level the Ordinary Magician removes all ill non-instantaneous non-permanent effects from herself  at the start of her turn.

That's pretty cool and all, but is it okay to not have any sort of roll tied to it for it to work? I mean, you'd get to do it every turn after all.

The Magician Representing Mortals: Despite wielding mighty magic, the Ordinary Magician is still a normal person. At 20th level the Ordinary Magician

20th level ability isn't finished

Range: See text

Duration: Instantaneous
Save: 11+Int mod

You may initiate this counter when you would be attacked. As part of it cast a damage-dealing spell with a casting time of a standard action or less. You rise directly upwards an amount of feet up to the damage it would deal plus your ranks in Spellcraft, rounded down to the nearest 5-multiplier. You don't provoke attacks of opportunity from this movement.
If there is a creature directly above you when you use this counter, they take damage equal to the distance you rise unless they suceed on a Reflex save. Either way they're moved to an adjacent square to make room for you to move. Inanimate objects take damage automatically, but aren't moved unless you deal enough damage to destroy them.
Either way, you don't fall down until the start of your next turn.

That sounds like a rather dangerous Counter to start the game with...I mean, you could kill yourself from fall damage just as likely as you could have been killed by the attack you're dodging. The maneuver also doesn't mention wasting the opponents action if you use this

I wasn't even done going through the 1st level maneuvers when I was already thinking "If every maneuver in this school requires casting a spell to use it, that'd be a real problem...". Clever stance idea solving the problem already, nice
Also noticing all of these Love-Colored Stances are pretty similar in this regard, which is pretty neat as you can tie different spells to each Stance and really extend the life of your spellcasting through out the day. I really like this mechanic.

It also ignores any hardness and affects any terrain on the way, dealing full damage to unatended objects.

I know it's Master Spark, but 50ft long per rank in spellcraft seems like a bit much...Um, lets see....considering the next version of this is like 70ft per IL, and the Final one is 100ft per IL, how bout keep them in sync and have this first one be at most 40ft per IL long?  Also I just noticed that this Spark's length is measured by Ranks in Spellcraft but the higher level Sparks are measured by IL. Changing it to be measured by IL like the others would help make this range not be quite so...far. Either.
Not sure about the width either....I feel like I wanna say reduce it to at most 10ft wide...but I've already pointed out a lot of things to better make this feel like something as low level as a 3rd level maneuver.

When you initiate this maneuver, a 5-feet wide beam of light sprouts in the surface right below you. It shoots straight upward and deals damage equal to any creatures it passes trough equal to a Spellcraft check from yourself. It has no upper limit until it reaches another surface.
You're unharmed by this beam, and other creatures can attempt a Reflex save for half damage.
It lasts indefentely, and you can produce extra ones, but you can only keep an amount of them up to 1/3 your IL, rounded down. If you try to go over the limit, the oldest one goes out. You may end any or all of them as an immediate action.

Considering it IS just a Boost, doing a full Spellcraft check in damage is a bit much. If anything, it either should do 1/2 or 1/3 a spellcraft check in damage maybe?
It's too simple a matter to launch any skill check into the stratosphere and this is not a Strike. Yanno?

Initiation Action: Swift action
Range: 20 feet per IL.

When you initiate this boost you create a double of yourself in any place within range.
The double can "borrow" any number of maneuvers you have prepared. You must choose an order and targets for those maneuvers to be used when you use this boost.
At the start of your next turn, the double will start using the maneuvers according to your instructions, as if you yourself were using them. When it has used up all those maneuvers, it vanishes. If one of the instructions can't be carried out, it tries to do the next one. If it was the last instruction, it ends earlier.
Borrowed maneuvers can't be used by yourself while this effect lasts, but you recover them automatically at the start of the turn following the end of the clone's duration, and can use them normally.
The clone can be attacked, and has the same defensive statistics as yourself.

If you unprepare or recover this maneuver while the clone is still active, it ends earlier as well.

No real problem I have with this one, just the first couple sentences were a little...poorly written and difficult to understand them so I'm offering up a retyped version with easier to understand wording >.>

You may initiate this counter whenever you would be harmed by an attack. Roll one Spellcraft check for each 3 IL you have.
You can move up to the combined result in feet. If you end out of the range/reach of the attack, you aren't affected. You provoke attacks of opportunity for this movement, and if you don't roll well enough to get away, you still move and are affected by the original attack.

Almost seems kind of pointless if you still provoke from this movement. Especially if you use the counter when attacked by anything with reach.

Each enemy inside range has 50% chance of being affected by that spell at the start of their turns.

The area doesn't move with you and lasts indefenetely until you use it again or are slain.

Another maneuver with an effectively infinite duration as you can just drop it and leave, using the rest of the party to lock down the enemies within the area so they can't chase you. I don't know what to suggest, but I don't like the infinite duration. 
At least require a concentration check to maintain each round. Actually, considering you have a lot of maneuvers here that basically just last until you stop concentrating on them and that you can have one of those going on while still using other maneuvers and spells that don't ask for a concentration check because that kind of check doesn't take an action, maybe toss a scaling Concentration DC for each round you try to maintain any such maneuver that can be maintained infinitely with a concentration check?
At the same time it'd promote not just throwing out a maneuver like this one and then hanging out doing nothing in the back line until combat ends.

As part of this maneuver cast a spell that deals HP damage with a casting time of a standard action or less. Its duration changes to 1 round.
It affects everybody inside a line with width 5 feet and length up to 70 feet per IL. This maneuver can't be interrupted, countered or otherwise stopped by any means, and you become invulnerable to all ill effects while this lasts, but you can't take any other actions either.
At the start of your next round, the line expands into a cone with the same range, and everybody and everything inside is affected by the spell and takes extra damage equal to two Spellcraft checks from you. This lasts another round, during which you still can only take immediate actions, and are no longer invincible.

So does this do normal damage as per the spell cast through it in the 1st round, then the spell's damage plus 2 spellcraft checks in the 2nd round?
And that last line, is this maneuver lasting 3 rounds in total then with the cone sized version lasting two rounds? Is the damage on the 3rd round the same as on the 2nd round?

You are already blasted!
The next spell you cast that deals HP damage whitin 1 round (including ones cast by Love-Coloured Magic) doesn't seem to deal any harmful effect.
The spell's effects are actually just delayed, and at any time in the future as an immediate action you may trigger the actual damage.
For each round you waited, the spell deals extra damage equal to your ranks in Spellcraft. You can delay the damage indefenetely, but the extra damage will only stack up to once per 2 IL you have. If you die, the damage happens automatically.
Each delay turn, creatures affected are allowed a Will save to understand how f***** up they are.

But does the Will save actually help them in any way if they succeed?
Also, this maneuver's delay mechanic seems really good for something to adapt into the maneuvers here that can last indefinitely (like I brought up a few quotes ago).

Creatures and objects trough which this sphere passed trough are affected by the spell.
If there's magic or physical obstacles in your way, you can attempt to dispel/break trough them when moving this way, using your ranks in Spellcraft+Int mod for any checks. You can even dispel normally undispellable effects, such as Wall of Force, or even an Anti-Magic field, but then the DC is 6 higher.
You can move over creatures in your path. They can attempt to move out of the way, being affected by the spell with a +3 DC and taking extra damage equal to one Spellcraft check from you.

After you've casted a total of 30 combined levels of spells while under this stance, you automatically exit it and cannot enter it again until you've casted another 30 combined levels of spells.

It's no longer magic blasting, but it's Marisa anyway, so no one really minds.

It should probably have it stated somewhere that you are the one moving and that the sphere isn't moving separately from you.
Currently it reads as if you are shooting "Blazing Stars" at people instead of actually becoming the "Blazing Star"

What's the point of this maneuver? You can only use it if there is only a single known enemy left (that you can assumedly see as well) and it's letting you move a minimum of 17 miles in a straight line? Why are you moving almost 20 miles in a straight line to hit a single, lone enemy that is more likely than not within your sight when you use this maneuver? At the same time, you can only use it when there is only one enemy left, but then you're still able to use it against anything and anyone else you just happen to pass over? And does merely passing over them (at any height above them) cause them to be affected or do you actually have to move through their space? If this is kept as is, then some clarification on that part could help.

What's wrong with "A Being made of Magic and Red Dream", Raineh? It doesn't seem to be a problem from my point of view :/

Assume Marisa has 20 levels in the class. If she becomes a youkai magician (possible; not immensely unlikely given she spends more time with youkai than humans and they'd all outlive her) she'd lose all her abilities. Despite this being a pretty minor change. Don't age, don't eat. Potentially inheritable as natural-born magicians need to come from somewhere.

I like the fact that as currently written, you could potentially lose flight mid-flight if you are made to lose your grip on whatever is letting you fly.

You may initiate this counter when you would be attacked. As part of it cast a damage-dealing spell with a casting time of a standard action or less. You rise directly upwards an amount of feet up to the damage it would deal plus your ranks in Spellcraft, rounded down to the nearest 5-multiplier. You don't provoke attacks of opportunity from this movement.
If there is a creature directly above you when you use this counter, they take damage equal to the distance you rise unless they suceed on a Reflex save. Either way they're moved to an adjacent square to make room for you to move. Inanimate objects take damage automatically, but aren't moved unless you deal enough damage to destroy them.
Either way, you don't fall down until the start of your next turn.

That sounds like a rather dangerous Counter to start the game with...I mean, you could kill yourself from fall damage just as likely as you could have been killed by the attack you're dodging. The maneuver also doesn't mention wasting the opponents action if you use this

Clarified evading, added free featherfall effect.

Magic Sign "Milky Way"
Love-Coloured Magic (Stance)
Level: Ordinary Magician 1
Initiation Action: Swift action
Target: you.
Duration: Stance
DC: 11+Int mod.

The stars in the sky guide even the deities lives.

When you prepare/recover spells, for every 2 ranks you have in Spellcraft you can choose to bond this stance to a single spell you prepare that deals HP damage 1 level lower than the max spell level you can prepare.
Until you prepare/recover spells again, you can cast that spell whitout expending a spell slot, including for Love-Coloured Magic maneuvers, as long as you're in this Stance.
If it had a duration other than instantaneous, change it to 1 round. Its save DC becomes the same as this Stance, unless channeled trough a higher-level maneuver.

I wasn't even done going through the 1st level maneuvers when I was already thinking "If every maneuver in this school requires casting a spell to use it, that'd be a real problem...". Clever stance idea solving the problem already, nice
Also noticing all of these Love-Colored Stances are pretty similar in this regard, which is pretty neat as you can tie different spells to each Stance and really extend the life of your spellcasting through out the day. I really like this mechanic.

Thanks! It worked quite a bit on how to blend in spellcasting with maneuvers.

Initiation Action: Fullround action
Range: See text
Target: See text
Duration: As spell
Save: 13+Int mod.

Freaking huge magical laser.


As part of this maneuver cast a spell that deals HP damage with a casting time of a standard action or less.
It affects everybody inside a line with width 15 feet and length up to 50 feet per rank you have in Spellcraft. It deals extra damage equal to twice your Int mod.
It also ignores any hardness and affects any terrain on the way, dealing full damage to unatended objects.

I know it's Master Spark, but 50ft long per rank in spellcraft seems like a bit much...Um, lets see....considering the next version of this is like 70ft per IL, and the Final one is 100ft per IL, how bout keep them in sync and have this first one be at most 40ft per IL long?  Also I just noticed that this Spark's length is measured by Ranks in Spellcraft but the higher level Sparks are measured by IL. Changing it to be measured by IL like the others would help make this range not be quite so...far. Either.
Not sure about the width either....I feel like I wanna say reduce it to at most 10ft wide...but I've already pointed out a lot of things to better make this feel like something as low level as a 3rd level maneuver.

Reduced range and made it dependant on IL.

The spell affects every creature in a line with 5 feet width and 15 feet per rank in Spellcraft lentgh. It automatically bypasses any barriers, walls, inanimate obstacles and similar.
If you move during the duration, the laser moves with you, altough it's always pointed on the same direction. It will affect any new creatures it passes trough, altough no single creature may be affected more than once.

Mundane obstacles only? Just as clarification. Probably shouldn't magical obstacle anyways, in my opinion.

Level: Ordinary Magician 3
Initiation Action: Swift Action
Range: See text
Target: See text
Duration: See text
Save: 13+Int mod

When you initiate this maneuver, a 5-feet wide beam of light sprouts in the surface right below you. It shoots straight upward and deals damage equal to any creatures it passes trough equal to a Spellcraft check from yourself. It has no upper limit until it reaches another surface.
You're unharmed by this beam, and other creatures can attempt a Reflex save for half damage.
It lasts indefentely, and you can produce extra ones, but you can only keep an amount of them up to 1/3 your IL, rounded down. If you try to go over the limit, the oldest one goes out. You may end any or all of them as an immediate action.

Considering it IS just a Boost, doing a full Spellcraft check in damage is a bit much. If anything, it either should do 1/2 or 1/3 a spellcraft check in damage maybe?
It's too simple a matter to launch any skill check into the stratosphere and this is not a Strike. Yanno?

Well, it's also kinda hard aiming since you need to be right under or above your target, but reduced the damage to half to be in the safer side.

Accelerating explosive rocket shots
As part of this maneuver cast a spell that deals HP damage with a casting time of a standard action or less. The duration of any other effects but the damage becomes 1 round.
Make a ranged touch attack. If you hit, the target is affected as if hit by the spell, and the DC increases by 4. Creatures whitin a burst of up to 5 feet per IL are affected as well, but use the same DC.

Putting a DC on the maneuver then stating in the description that you are actually using the Spell's normal DC+4 could be a bit confusing. Maybe a "Save: See Text" goes here?

It's because of the stance that if you bonded a spell to a stance, you get to use the maneuver's DC base (and then add+4 if you hit the attack).

Love-Coloured Magic (Boost)
Level: Ordinary Magician 4
Initiation Action: Swift action
Range: 20 feet per IL.
Target: See text
Duration: See text.

When you initiate this boost you create a double of yourself in any place within range.
The double can "borrow" any number of maneuvers you have prepared. You must choose an order and targets for those maneuvers to be used when you use this boost.
At the start of your next turn, the double will start using the maneuvers according to your instructions, as if you yourself were using them. When it has used up all those maneuvers, it vanishes. If one of the instructions can't be carried out, it tries to do the next one. If it was the last instruction, it ends earlier.
Borrowed maneuvers can't be used by yourself while this effect lasts, but you recover them automatically at the start of the turn following the end of the clone's duration, and can use them normally.
The clone can be attacked, and has the same defensive statistics as yourself.

If you unprepare or recover this maneuver while the clone is still active, it ends earlier as well.

No real problem I have with this one, just the first couple sentences were a little...poorly written and difficult to understand them so I'm offering up a retyped version with easier to understand wording >.>

Initiation Action: Immediate Action

Target: You
Duration: Instantaneous

You may initiate this counter whenever you would be harmed by an attack. Roll one Spellcraft check for each 3 IL you have.
You can move up to the combined result in feet. If you end out of the range/reach of the attack, you aren't affected. You provoke attacks of opportunity for this movement, and if you don't roll well enough to get away, you still move and are affected by the original attack.

Almost seems kind of pointless if you still provoke from this movement. Especially if you use the counter when attacked by anything with reach.

You mean it is pointless to eat an Aoo in place of a super-pimped attack of doom?

An asteroid belt attack that puts Meteo to shame.

As part of this maneuver cast a spell that deals HP damage with a casting time of a standard action or less.
Targets are affected by the spell, and take extra damage equal to a Spellcraft check from you.
This maneuver keeps repeating itself on the same area at the start of each of your turns until you recover or unprepare this maneuver, or are somehow rendered unable to take actions.

Maybe it should have a duration, yeah? Or at least needing to concentrate on it each round much like how several other maneuvers you have here require that last multiple rounds.
Also, this sounds very apt to friendly fire tpks currently.....

Well, the thing is that altough it repeats itself, it does so in the same area, and as you pointed out it deals friendly damage just fine. If your enemies/allies are ⑨ enough to stand under it, they deserve what's coming for them.

Choose one 5-feet square whitin range for each rank you have in spellcraft. A beam of light rises from that spot, and any and all creatures and unattended objects under it are affected as per the spell, and take extra damage equal to your Int mod. They last 1 round, altough no creature can be affected more than once by each.
At the start of your next turn, and the following turns, half the beams of your choice repeat themselves. You can choose which each turn.
This maneuver ends when either you recover it, unprepare it, or take damage and fail a concentration check as if it was a spell.

While it does say no creature can be affected more than once by each (beam), can you affect a single creature multiple times if you place multiple beams under it (assuming the creature fills more than a 5ft square such as a large or larger creature)?

Put a limitation that lasers need to be at least 10 feet apart from each other, clarified for big creatures.

As part of this maneuver cast a spell that deals HP damage with a casting time of a standard action or less.
Each enemy inside range has 50% chance of being affected by that spell at the start of their turns.

The area doesn't move with you and lasts indefenetely until you use it again or are slain.

Another maneuver with an effectively infinite duration as you can just drop it and leave, using the rest of the party to lock down the enemies within the area so they can't chase you. I don't know what to suggest, but I don't like the infinite duration. 
At least require a concentration check to maintain each round. Actually, considering you have a lot of maneuvers here that basically just last until you stop concentrating on them and that you can have one of those going on while still using other maneuvers and spells that don't ask for a concentration check because that kind of check doesn't take an action, maybe toss a scaling Concentration DC for each round you try to maintain any such maneuver that can be maintained infinitely with a concentration check?

Just as like the asteroid one, this one is immobile. And also a sealed maneuver, so you can't just keep spamming it when you go somewhere else.

At the same time it'd promote not just throwing out a maneuver like this one and then hanging out doing nothing in the back line until combat ends.

That would be... Highly innefecient, considering that half the time it doesn't do anything.

At the start of your next turn, the same spell/love-coloured magic effect happens again, except the point of origin is any location the previous one affected, and it must be aimed straight down.

Each also ignores any hardness and affects any terrain on the way, dealing full damage to unatended objects.

Basically casting the same spell twice and NOT two different spells, right?
Do you have to have the spell prepped twice for the day as well?
Basically some clearer wording for clarification could help here.

No description available. No description necessary

As part of this maneuver cast a spell that deals HP damage with a casting time of a standard action or less. Its duration changes to 1 round.
It affects everybody inside a line with width 5 feet and length up to 70 feet per IL. This maneuver can't be interrupted, countered or otherwise stopped by any means, and you become invulnerable to all ill effects while this lasts, but you can't take any other actions either.
At the start of your next round, the line expands into a cone with the same range, and everybody and everything inside is affected by the spell and takes extra damage equal to two Spellcraft checks from you. This lasts another round, during which you still can only take immediate actions, and are no longer invincible.

So does this do normal damage as per the spell cast through it in the 1st round, then the spell's damage plus 2 spellcraft checks in the 2nd round?
And that last line, is this maneuver lasting 3 rounds in total then with the cone sized version lasting two rounds? Is the damage on the 3rd round the same as on the 2nd round?

It just lasts 2 rounds. The damage becomes boosted at the start of your 2nd one and lasts 1 turn from there (thus 2 rounds duration)

You are already blasted!
The next spell you cast that deals HP damage whitin 1 round (including ones cast by Love-Coloured Magic) doesn't seem to deal any harmful effect.
The spell's effects are actually just delayed, and at any time in the future as an immediate action you may trigger the actual damage.
For each round you waited, the spell deals extra damage equal to your ranks in Spellcraft. You can delay the damage indefenetely, but the extra damage will only stack up to once per 2 IL you have. If you die, the damage happens automatically.
Each delay turn, creatures affected are allowed a Will save to understand how f***** up they are.

But does the Will save actually help them in any way if they succeed?

That's up to them to find some kind of saving mercy, like preparing some healing or starting to write their will.. Begging for mercy is also an option.

Also, this maneuver's delay mechanic seems really good for something to adapt into the maneuvers here that can last indefinitely (like I brought up a few quotes ago).

The problem is that this is something that follows the target around, whereas the others are things that remain in the same place.

Comet "Blazing Star"

Initiation Action: Swift action
Target: you.
Duration: stance
Save:19+Int mod

Become the wind. It feels good to fly at extreme speeds
Her ultimate charging attack where she turns herself into a comet. Plain straight, very her-ish.

When you prepare/recover spells, for every 8 ranks you have in Spellcraft you can choose to bond this stance to a single spell you prepare that deals HP damage 1 level lower than the max spell level you can prepare.
If the spells had a duration, it's reduced to 1 round. Its save DCs become the same as this Stance.
Until you prepare/recover spells again, you can cast that spell whitout expending a spell slot, including for Love-Coloured Magic maneuvers, as long as you're in this Stance.
If it had a duration other than instantaneous, change it to 1 round. Its save DC becomes the same as this Stance, unless channeled trough a higher-level maneuver.

While on this stance, whenever you cast a spell that deals HP damage (including ones cast with Love-Coloured Magic), instead of its regular targets, you create a sphere of magic energy with a radius of 5 feet per 3 IL centered in yourself and move up to 200 feet per IL (minimum 50 feet).
Creatures and objects trough which this sphere passed trough are affected by the spell.
If there's magic or physical obstacles in your way, you can attempt to dispel/break trough them when moving this way, using your ranks in Spellcraft+Int mod for any checks. You can even dispel normally undispellable effects, such as Wall of Force, or even an Anti-Magic field, but then the DC is 6 higher.
You can move over creatures in your path. They can attempt to move out of the way, being affected by the spell with a +3 DC and taking extra damage equal to one Spellcraft check from you.
If they choose to stand in your way, they can perform an attack of opportunity, but then the DC increases by 6 and they take extra damage equal to two spellcraft checks from you.
After you've casted a total of 30 combined levels of spells while under this stance, you automatically exit it and cannot enter it again until you've casted another 30 combined levels of spells.

It's no longer magic blasting, but it's Marisa anyway, so no one really minds.

It should probably have it stated somewhere that you are the one moving and that the sphere isn't moving separately from you.
Currently it reads as if you are shooting "Blazing Stars" at people instead of actually becoming the "Blazing Star" 

Just as planned fixed.

You can only use this last sealed maneuver when your opponent is alone and has no more allies you can detect, and you have at least one other being cheering for you.
As part of this maneuver cast a spell that deals HP damage with a casting time of a standard action or less.
You move up to 1 mile per IL in a straight line. During this movement you're immune to all damage and ill effects and other creatures can't take immediate actions as they're too awed.
You can pass over other creatures, and if you do so, they're affected as by the spell, and take extra damage equal to four Spellcraft checks from you.

What's the point of this maneuver? You can only use it if there is only a single known enemy left (that you can assumedly see as well) and it's letting you move a minimum of 17 miles in a straight line? Why are you moving almost 20 miles in a straight line to hit a single, lone enemy that is more likely than not within your sight when you use this maneuver? At the same time, you can only use it when there is only one enemy left, but then you're still able to use it against anything and anyone else you just happen to pass over? And does merely passing over them (at any height above them) cause them to be affected or do you actually have to move through their space? If this is kept as is, then some clarification on that part could help.

Hmm, relaxed the requirements, now you just need to have double or more allies supporting you to use this one.

Thanks for pointing all that stuff out!

What's wrong with "A Being made of Magic and Red Dream", Raineh? It doesn't seem to be a problem from my point of view :/

Assume Marisa has 20 levels in the class. If she becomes a youkai magician (possible; not immensely unlikely given she spends more time with youkai than humans and they'd all outlive her) she'd lose all her abilities. Despite this being a pretty minor change. Don't age, don't eat. Potentially inheritable as natural-born magicians need to come from somewhere.

A Being made of Magic and Red Dream: An Ordinary magician starts as someone normal that aspires to be something greater. If the Ordinary Magician gains a template or her creature type is permanently changed, she must instantly swap her Ordinary Magician levels into something else.

Er... not terribly sure I agree with this. It does rather deny the fact that most Youkai Magicians are basically the same thing, but with a few spells that work around that inconvenient ageing and stop needing to eat from interfering with research. I say most, as we have Byakuren and Alice on one side, and Patchouli on the other.

Don't know if you got the memo, but Marisa is still an human, while Byakuren sold off her humanity because she was a spineless coward.

And that's why an ordinary magician is different from a youkai magician (nice name for Patchoulli's future class BTW, I'll keep that one in mind). Marisa relies in hard work and going all out. Patchouli and Byakuren and Alice take it easy most of the time.

Dark Flight: At 5th level the Ordinary Magician can fly at twice her base speed with good maneuverability in some bizzarre way, like holding into an unattended household object like a broom or oven, or simply sprouting wings out of nowhere.

And thus the witch-y flight method is a bad idea as you could lose your grip.

Disclaimer: most of the broom boosts will come in the form of the school's feats, because there was just so much I could put in the class and school themselves.

Marisa is indeed still a human--for now. Given who she associates most with, I kinda doubt that's going to stay the same indefinitely. There's even a fan VN about how this could all go down, though  that's still (even after three years) in progress.

Also, all magicians, by definition, rely on hard work, Patchouli and Byakuren just have the advantage of starting before her. Alice's Goliath Doll testing is quite a big clue, too. >.>

Pfftt, fanfiction about Marisa abandoning her humanity are a cent the dozen out there.

But there's also plenty of fanfiction where Marisa just goes "Do I really want to live forever?"

Which is actually much closer to cannon:
-Perfect Cherry Blossom profile says that "On another topic, the elixir of immortality she had been developing during the winter ended up being too large for consumption. More improvement required." The way I see it, the "too large for consumption" is meant in a literal sense-Marisa doesn't want such large of a burden.
-And indeed in the Extra stage of IN, Marisa refuses to eat Mokou's guts, altough she admits she's somewhat tempted by immortality.
-In UFO, Marisa admits she's on the same magic business as Byakuren, but then points out that their methods are quite different. Byakuren went completely to the dark magic side, while Marisa still holds to her human part.
-There's also her title in HM, "The Magician Representing Humanity". In a battle of popularity between wannabe gods, disguised monsters and divine beings, Marisa stands alone for the common people.

Also, all magicians, by definition, rely on hard work, Patchouli and Byakuren just have the advantage of starting before her. Alice's Goliath Doll testing is quite a big clue, too. >.>

But all of those just sit in their dark corners doing their things most of the time. They play it safe and slow. Marisa's the one who goes all-out all the time.

Basically, going from magician human to magician youkai is supposed to change someone's very nature. Thus the levelsretraining.

What do you think she's thinking where Reimu is concerned? It's a VN. It's interesting enough, though it's stopped just before she makes a final decision on the matter (which will take place after meeting Byakuren, since this is put between SA and UFO). She's also worried about losing her humanity when her fundamental motivation is to stop ageing because so many of her friends will outlive her.

Which is actually much closer to cannon:

- 'More improvement required'. Yeah, no matter how you try and dismiss it, Marisa's not got all that much intention of staying human. The problem is clearly with the implementation.
- Gee, she's tempted by immortality but doesn't want to eat guts? Do you think this might not be because she doesn't desire to be a cannibal? Or eating raw liver is outside of her comfort zone. And the Hourai Elixir is immensely overkill.
- These last two don't equate to 'Marisa has every intention of dying from old age'. Byakuren basically became a champion of youkai against humanity, and the last one... uh, she's not fighting on behalf of a philosophy. I don't see what that has to do at all, because Buddhism has fuck all to do with becoming a youkai magician.

Also, all magicians, by definition, rely on hard work, Patchouli and Byakuren just have the advantage of starting before her. Alice's Goliath Doll testing is quite a big clue, too. >.>

... so Marisa's the belligerent one always fighting, who believes magic is supposed to be flashy as hell. This does not make her more of a hard worker; it makes her a risky fighter. As it says in her article, Marisa is specialised in youkai extermination--Patchouli has the Philosopher's Stone, and Alice wants to make a sentient doll. They have different focuses. >.>

And... no it isn't? You stop needing to eat and stop ageing. Youkai magicians aren't so different from people; hell, there's a 2e spell (from Netheril, so impossible to cast normally, but still) to exactly that effect, so I can't buy 'no longer dying from old age means you're not able to be this class any more'. It would fit as part of the 20th level capstone, for one.

I can also achieve it via Ring of Sustenance and one level of Eternal Royal, so the restriction doesn't actually prevent me from being able to model, say, Alice with it.

So sad I can't take Rainbow Puppeteer if I take this class, though. Because that would be the best way to maximise doll usage.

Well, you can steal borrow them with Magician of Red Dreams.

It''s not the same. : (

Though I'm now wondering what spells could work well with the dolls. Hmmm.

Yanno it doesn't take corrupting your nature and acquiring templates that change your creature type to live longer.

I just feel arguing this point is a little moot. Marisa is human now. Just an Ordinary human. If that ever changes canonically in the future, and it makes a big enough impact and change, it could by all means merit a Not-So-Ordinary anymore PrC. But some immortal demon is not who she is right now.

Edit:

You mean it is pointless to eat an Aoo in place of a super-pimped attack of doom? 

Stuff that pimps out your attack(s) for the round tend to last, well, the entire round.
For instance, the effects of Power Attack still apply to your AoOs taken before your next turn, just as example.
So you're dodging a super-pimped out attack of doom for a....second chance at being hit by that super-pimped attack of doom. The only real exception is if you trigger this off an attack spell and then hopefully you get out of the spell's range

Which brings to mind! You pretty much gave the class all these rogue skills as class skills, but not Tumble? I feel Tumble makes sense.
Plus aerial barrel rolls away/through enemies!

The problem is that this is something that follows the target around, whereas the others are things that remain in the same place.

Yes but the areas for those immobile effects are huge enough to easily cover most of, if not the entire battlefield more often than not

But it does make it the easiest way to represent it, minor a change as it is.

ZUN, change something?

-Spells
-Maneuvers
-Full attacks/pounce

Need I go on why eating an Aoo would be preferable to the above?
Plus, if you gain some way of concealment/cover, you don't even need to bother with the Aoo.

Feats will cover fancy broom stuff. Reimu's more athletic than Marisa, and she doesn't get tumble either.

Reduced area to 5 feet per IL then. That may be 100 feet at 20th level... But if your opponent's can't work around that by that level, they deserve their deaths.

... so Marisa's the belligerent one always fighting, who believes magic is supposed to be flashy as hell. This does not make her more of a hard worker; it makes her a risky fighter. As it says in her article, Marisa is specialised in youkai extermination--Patchouli has the Philosopher's Stone, and Alice wants to make a sentient doll. They have different focuses. >.>

Point remains. Marisa acts in a different way than Marisa. Patchoulli can't be expected to shrugg off bad conditions and throwing improvised bombs.

Plus, Alice already created a sentient doll. She's moved on to making mecha dolls last time we heard of her. When she gets bored of that (like she got bored of Medicine and threw her away), she'll find something else doll-related to do. Unless there's astral bodies disappearing or earthquakes, Alice always has an excuse to stay at home nowadays.

As Marisa herself pointed out, what kind of mind do you need to mass produce human-shaped bombs?

Ah, I knew I had forgotten something. Taken care off.
