Psionics, New meta and formatting changes

First, the new meta:

Surge- 10ap, 10mana. 250Xp to learn. The spells critical strike range is increased by 2. in addition, if the spell successfully confirms critical, you may immediately cast another spell that costs 0 mana and 15 less Ap.

this meta allows a mage to cast spells back-to-back more effectively. another change on the way is the way metas are used and categorized. Metas will now be split into two categories: Shape Metas, and Power Metas. you may only have one Shape meta on a spell at a time, but you may have as many power metas as you like. This change should simplify spellcasting and streamline spell creation and resolution. In addition you will now be able to add a single meta multiple times and cause its effects to stack. so, with our surge meta here, a double shot of surge means that our spells critical threat range is increased by 4, and if we confirm a crit, our next spell costs 30 less mana, however the double shot of surge would cost us 20ap and 20 mana.

Psionics:

Psionics are now being looked at more critically and will likely make it into character creation sometime soon.

Formatting Changes:

Ive decided to split the Character Creation book into chapters with abilities first and meta abilities in the latter part of each chapter. the chapters will likely begin with equipment, then move into martial, then magic, and finally psionics.
