You can use Spellcards crafted by a Spellcard Artist.
Spells that have no target listed can be used with no check; their effects simply happen.
For spells that have a target of area, the GM must make a DL appropriate for where you want to throw a card, given the environmental effects (like wind, etc.).
For spells that have a target of creature (whether it’s automatic or a magic beam), make an attack roll using your ranks in Weapon (Card) excluding Muscle.
 |
+ | Agility | + | Weapon (Card) |
Your foe makes a Dodge or Parry (with no Endurance or Armor).
|
+ | Agility | + | Dodge/Weapon Skill |
If successful, you physically slap the card against your foe or ally (on their forehead or back), but this attack deals no damage. One applied, the target is automatically subject to the effects of the card. It takes 2 Action Points and a Muscle check of 8 to pry off a card (it also takes an Agility check of 6 to reach one on your back).
Once the spell duration is elapsed (found in the spell description), the card fizzles out of existence.
