Ramsey aka Kralizec! (DustinM@rifts-rpg.com) Any type of plasma handgun or rifle can be converted to Techno-Wizardry. During this process, the Techno-Wizard replaces the weapon's energy system, completely converting it to magic energy. Once finish, normal energy clips designed for the weapon will no longer function. Creation Costs: P.P.E. Cost: 10 + 5 P.P.E. for each die of damage the weapon does, +10 P.P.E. for each additional payload of 5 shots. Spells Needed: Fire Bolt and Energy Bolt Physical Requirements: one ruby worth at least 1000 credits for each die of damage the weapon does, plus one diamond worth at least 1000 credits for each additional payload of 5 shots added to the weapon. Level Requirements: None; a Techno-Wizard of any level can create this type of weapon. As the Techno-Wizard advances in experience, they may build the weapon with an additional payload-increasing diamond at levels 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10. Time: 1D8 hours per each crystal in the weapon Usage of Converted Weapon: Weight: Unchanged, only the weight of the energy clip has been removed. Mega-Damage: one die of damage less than the original weapon Rate of Fire: Unchanged Maximum Effective Range: Unchanged Payload: 5 blasts, plus 5 additional shots for each extra 1000 credit diamond added.
