Princesses of Hope

Princesses (and Princes) Of Hope

Note: This was heavily inspired by the Princess: The Hopeful fan game for World of Darkness. Some of the system has been borrowed from or inspired by other #lords games.

Players are brand new magical girls who attend the same school/live in the same area. The system is set up so that higher level powers are shunted aside and difficult to get as players are supposed to be fairly new to this game.

Ritual/Joint Spellcasting:
Larger scale magics, including those beyond a princesses' normal power, can be cast through ritual but this requires time, uninterrupted effort, and the use of props and reagents. Two or more princesses in the same nakama or team can also team up to cast magic, so long as it fits both their invocations, in which case they split the wisp cost between themselves.
