Buffy the Vampire Slayer RPG
The Magic Box
Willow: Okay, that's a little blacker than I like my arts.
Anya: Oh, don't be such a wimp.
-3.16 Doppelgangland
Okay, so you're not the one and only Slayer... whatever. With ancient and powerful magicks on your side, you don't need to be able to bench press a car to fight evil with the best of them. Whether you're a witch, a warlock, a dabbler in the dark arts, a psychic or even a superscientist, you have powers granted to few mortals. 'Course, there's a potential downside ... but bad stuff never happens to the good guys. Right? Here you'll find all the info you need to master your powers and learn how to introduce the monsters to a world of magical hurt. Oh, and there's also some talk of the dark side... just in case...
The Magic Box is a supplement for the Buffy the Vampire Slayer roleplaying game. In it, you will find:
- A history of magic and the supernatural in the Buffyverse.
- New character creation ideas, Qualities and Drawbacks, and more character Archetypes for witches, warlocks, psychics and other users of arcane arts.
- Descriptions and stats for rituals and items of mystical power from the BtVS TV show as well as a few never seen before.
- Expanded rules for creating new spells and magical "talismens... mans... talisguys".
- Details on psychic powers and other paranormal abilities.
- A complete Episode featuring a monster that only powerful magic can vanquish.

It’s...okay. Does what it is supposed to do: more rules for magic, example spells from the show, etc. The writing doesn’t meet the level of humor of the core hardcovers, but there isn’t really anything negative here. It’s useful at the table for any Buffy or Angel game.

Well laid out book with good charts for creating your own spells. Love the quotes from the series to help bring it to life.
