SARTANS This is my conversion of Sartans from the Death Gate Cycle. They look almost completely human, only they have light hair that darkens at the ends of their hair. They see love and compassion as virtues and tend to be social. They seem warm, caring, and patronizing. They tend to live in large groupings such as cities.

ATTRIBUTES: Roll 3d6 for each, add 1d6 if 16+ is rolled, then apply these modifiers: +1 PE, +1 IQ, +2 ME, -2 MA, and +1 SPD
HIT POINTS: PE, add 1D6 per level in addition to those gained from OCC, skills, etc
SDC: 20, plus any gained from skills and/or OCC

RUNES The Sartans can do rune magic as well, but don't have tattoos. They do their magic by singing and dancing. It is possible to do more, but only by being in the Rune Caster OCC, (Coming soon!).

MULTIPLY FOOD: Can multiply existing food or water. Costs 5 PPE per multiplication. IE: make one box of rice become 3 would take 15 PPE.
SHED LIGHT: Can shed enough light from their tattoos to illuminate a 20' radius area, costs 1 PPE. Duration is 5 minutes per level.
STRENGTHEN OBJECT: By inscribing runes on an object it will make the object a lot tougher. Costs 10 PPE per point of MDC given to the object, the MDC does not regenerate if damaged, so once gone it is gone for good. Has no duration, lasts until destroyed.
REPAIR OBJECT: Can repair an object. This power functions the same as the spell Mend The Broken.
ENHANCE SELF: Can temporarily enhance one or more attributes. Can increase PS, PE, PP, SPD, and SDC. Costs 20 PPE per point and lasts 5 minutes per level. Can also make PS supernatural, but this costs 50 additional PPE. Can make oneself an MDC being. Costs 20 PPE per point of MDC.
HEALING: Can heal self or another, costs 5 PPE per 1 HP/SDC/MDC restored.
