Inverted Magus Specialty
A Class Warfare-like disciple specialty for Dungeon World games.
You have been initiated into the Inverted Pyramid, an exclusive order of arcane casters.
Compendium Class
The Inverted Pyramid works by invitation only, and rarely issues invitations to anyone less than 5th level. Once you completed the rite of initiation and been welcomed into the Inverted Pyramid, you may consider this specialty an available compendium class. The next time you level up, you may add this specialty to your character instead of choosing a move from your class.
This speciality may only be taken as a compendium class.
Starting Moves
You start with all this move:
Inverted Pyramid Initiate
Choose a spell already in your spellbook or repertoire. You may prepare and cast that spell as if it were two levels lower. If you do and you miss when casting it, the results will be worse than usual.
Advanced Moves
When you gain a level from 6-10, you may choose from these moves:
Edict Dampening
When you affirm arcane magic's superiority over the divine, roll+nothing. If you spend mojo, take +1 per point spent. If you end an ongoing spell, take +1 for every full two levels the spell had (e.g. take +2 for ending a fifth level spell). On a hit, you may snuff out a temporary divine magical spell or effect or suppress a permanent divine effect for a time. On a 7-9, your becomes more noticeable to the god powering the interrupted effect.
Expanded Horizon
(requires: Expanded Spellbook)
Select an additional school of magic. Add all cantrips from this school to your spellbook. When you gain a level, you may choose spells from this school as well.
