good evening and welcome fellow Children of Chaos.
90% filler. Like there is a spell called Colour. It changed the colour of a light source. It makes it so that your light bulb glows green for a few hours.
POINTS WELL SPENT I SAY.
This ultimately is the problem I have with GURPS. Especially as a generic game. It feels like it is trying so hard to cover bases that it is just filled with pointless shit. Also a spell that makes someone else super horny is just bleh.
I also think it feels like 4 games awkwardly stapled together. I skimmed a lot of this for very samey and pointless spells.
