Book of Power

This slightly larger than normal size tome is bound in sturdy black leather with the simple inscription "Power" on the cover in silver writing. Believed to have been created in 10606 YE, the Book of Power was written by The Kurgan, Richter, and Erik Stromblad in the Village of Tah on the Blackmoon. The book is composed of knowledge of the raw power that resides in all things and how to access that power. It is the immortal force that creates and propels the things on their courses. The manifestation of the immortal force is known as the Immortal Powers.

The Book of Power is said to contain every known Immortal Power. And once read completely, the book bestows one random Immortal Power on the reader. Additional powers are available if the book is available or if a master of that Tier and Power instruct the person for at least 3 months. A person who has read the book can specifically try to manifest a power previously unknown to them by practicing for at least 3 months. Once a Tier 1 power is learned, the remaining power Tiers can be practiced for at least 3 months each to attain. DM's discretion.

Immortal Powers use their own point system known as Chi Points or Chi-P (CP)

Each Tier of an ability costs as many CP as the Tier level. EX: Tier 1 = 1 CP---Tier 2 = 2 CP

CP advancement- 1/lvl

Ability advancement- 1/3 lvls = starting at 3rd level---1/3rd--1/6th--1/9th--1/12th--1/15th--1/18th
