制造灵能物品CREATING PSIONIC ITEMS 第三章“专长”中说明的某些专长给予灵能人物制造灵能物品的能力。他们已经可以制造这儿描述的任何物品了。但如果你打算制造全新物品呢?没有什么能阻止你——继续吧!无论如何,你要将新物品和拥有大致相同能力的物品进行比较,并为之合理地定价。
Several feats described in chapter 4: Feats grant psionic characters the ability to create psionic items. They have everything needed to recreate any of the items described here. But what if you want to create a completely new item? Nothing is stopping you—go ahead! However, you’ll need to price the new item fairly in comparison to others of approximately equal power.
计算有关制造灵能物品的费用请参考《地下城主指南》第八章中的制造魔法物品以及该书中的表8-40的细节。虽然这些资料只是关于魔法物品的,但那里介绍的价格公式对灵能物品同样有用(事实上这里说明的灵能物品就参考了那个)。由于展现等价异能(例如“任意门”)所需的灵能人物等级要高于施法者等级,任何真正打算制造灵能物品的人都极可能选取别出心裁专长。这保证了特定能级的普通灵能物品和该能级的魔法物品有大致相同的交易价格。
To calculate the costs involved in creating a psionic item, refer to Creating Magic Items in Chapter 8 of the
DUNGEON MASTER’s Guide and in particular Table 8-40 in that book. Although that information deals with magic items, the price formulas presented there are identical to those for psionic items (in fact, the psionic items described here use them). While the required psionic character level can be higher than a spellcaster’s level to manifest an equivalent power (such as
dimension door), anyone serious about making psionic items has probably taken the Metacreative feat. This ensures that the average psionic Item of a given power level has about the same market value as a magic item of the power level.
特殊材料SPECIAL MATERIALS 除了灌入异能的灵能物品外,某些物质有着先天的特殊属性。这里将作为实例介绍一种这样的材料,但你的战役完全可以包括你设计的其他材料。
In addition to psionic items with imbedded powers, some substances have innate special properties. One such material is presented here as an example, but your campaign might well include others of your own design.
星铁:这种从星界位面的秘密场所开采出来的柔韧金属只在灵能生物手中保持形状。无人持用或被非灵能生物持用时,星铁所铸造的物品会暂时融化并失去所有特殊能力。但当被灵能生物持用时,该物品立即变回真实形状并恢复所有能力。在正常形态下,除非物品的主人在精神上熄灭它,否则星铁物品会发出紫色的光芒(照亮10呎半径)。在灵能不能生效的区域,星铁物品如同被非灵能人物持用一样崩塌。
Ferroplasm: Mined from secret locations in the Astral Plane, this malleable metal holds its shape only in the hands of a psionic being. When an item forged with ferroplasm is unattended or held by a nonpsionic creature, it melts and temporarily loses all special powers. But when wielded by, psionic creature, such an item immediately springs bad into its true shape and regains all abilities. In its proper form, a ferroplasm item glows with a violet light (illuminating a 10-foot-radius), unless the item’s owner mentally quenches it. In an area where psionic powers do not function, it collapses as if in the hands of a nonpsionic creature.
星铁对武器或防具的品质加强依赖于使用了多少该材料。因此,星铁全身铠甲比起星铁链甲有更多的保护(和更多的费用),而星铁星铁巨剑比星铁长棍有更强的攻击能力。星铁制成的武器在攻击和伤害上都有天生的增强加值。星铁制成的防具在AC上有天生的增强加值。这些加值不和其他增强加值累加。由于制造时的重视,星铁制成的武器和防具视为精制物品,但精制品的性质并不影响武器的增强加值或防具的防具检定减值。
Ferroplasm adds to the quality of a weapon or suit of armor based on how much of the material is used. Thus, ferroplasm full plate offers greater protection (as well as a greater cost) than ferroplasm chainmail, and a ferropwm greatsword offers greater offensive capability than a ferroplasm quarterstaff. Weapons fashioned from ferroplasm have a natural enhancement bonus to attack and damage. Armor fashioned from ferroplasm bas a natural enhancement bonus to AC. These bonuses do not stack with other enhancement bonuses. Weapons or armor fashioned from ferroplasm are treated as masterwork items with regard to creation times, but the masterwork quality does not affect the enhancement bonus of weapons or the armor check penalty of armor.
每吋真实形态的星铁有20点硬度和40点生命值,而每吋软化的星铁有5点硬度和10点生命值。
Ferroplasm has hardness 20 and 40 hit points per inch of thickness when in its true form, and a hardness of 5 and 10 hit points per inch of thickness when soft.
