I just realised that Wizards can “easily” predict and manipulate the weather with ritual.

1. Comment on naming:

   How about A PORT IN ANY STORM as a closer play on the ‘Any port in a storm’ idiom?

2. I didn’t know this idiom and though “a port in a storm” was a thing in itself. Need to check on that…

3. done! Thank you. 

4. If I put it into play, I’d make a small change to the move itself…

   I wouldn’t explicitly state that it requires weather, just the conditions and hope players chained abilities together as a team.

   Smouldering a fire with leaves to draw up a smoke/fog cloak, hitting themselves with a Magic Missile for the benefits of heat or ice or lightning (as long as it’s consistent with the caster’s style).

5. The fog thing would work but a magic missile to the face is no blizzard…

6. If a wizard consistently throws fictionally ice flavored missiles (instead of the default force/lightning/fire feel of MM) and came up with the plan and is willing to take 2d4 to the face right before a fight… I’d probably allow it. 🙂

   It’s not much different than the Flaming Paladin combo, except they take damage and only get +1 Armor.

7. What is the flaming paladin combo? Quest for immunity to fire, bathe in oil, ignite, charge, profit? 

   It also doesn’t work because it’s not a natural phenomen but arcane magic. But that’s just my game. 

8. That’s the one!

   If they pull that though, remind them after, “You didn’t mention taking off your pack or armor…”

9. i remind them before because i am their fan.
