Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })M.A.G.U.S. subtitled Avagy a Kalandorok krónikái (Or the Adventurer Chronicles), colloquially also known as Mákos (Lucky), Mókus (Squirrel) or the Nagy Ződ' (Ye Big Green), is the secondnote The first was "Harc és Varázslat" (Fight and Sorcery)., most influential and probably only ever marginally successful Hungarian tabletop role-playing game.It's based on the fantasy novels A Halál Havában (In the month of Death, 1990) and Észak Lángjai (Flames of North, 1991) by Gáspár András and Novák Csanád (they wrote under the Pen Name "Wayne Chapman") and was first published in 1993, then republished with minor bugfixes several times in the following years culminating in a major revision in 1999 that got a cold reception. In 2004 the game got a d20 rewrite and later in 2007 a modernized edition of its original system. It suffered a lot of publisher changes and disputes between the creators in its turbulent history.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The gamesystem is quite rules heavy (not Rolemaster level but still) and uses percentage based resolution except when it doesn't. To elaborate basically from the four different editions only the d20 one had a unified mechanic. The whole original system is a mess of percentage based, base number and add roll, roll under with d10, etc. mechanics.The gameworld, called Ynev, was originally Low Fantasy / Standard Fantasy Setting, but later got expanded with more and more Cyberpunk and Horror (mostly Cosmic Horror) elements and was subjected to frequent and abusive Ret Cons as time went by. And there were also more and more novels of varying quality published that shaped it, for better or worse, as many times the fiction writers didn't know much about the RPG.There is currently news of yet another reboot with a late 2013 release date, which Schedule Slipped to 2014... or maybe 2015. Fans are divided.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Sourcebook | |
| MAGUS (Tabletop Game) / int_2a519529 | comment |
Sourcebook: In it's long run it got several. Some of the more notable: Worldbooks: Summarium: A teremtés könyvei (Summarium: The books of creation) is the most comprehensive setting book evernote Actually this was meant to be the first book of a three book total revision... which never got published.; Geoframia kivonatok: Enoszuke (Excerpts from Geoframia: Enoszuke) about the Fantasy Counterpart Culture of Japan. Splatbooks: Papok, Paplovagok Kézikönyve (Handbook of Priests and Paladins) volumes 1 and 2; Harcosok, Gladiatorok, Barbárok (Fighters, Gladiators, Barbarians). Catalogs: The Bestiárium (Bestiary) even got three different editions. Rule expansions: Második törvénykönyv (The Second Book of Law) which had new classes, races, weapons and special rules to make combat even more complicated; Új tekercsek (The New Scrolls) which is basically what ever got written (and not really playtested) from the Summarium rule revision so a Point Buy system and a revision of the skills (but still no unified mechanic). | |

Loads and Loads of Rules | |
| MAGUS (Tabletop Game) / int_517ae522 | comment |
Loads and Loads of Rules: Yes. And contradictory mechanics. Like: Measuring time in turns in battles but in seconds (it's segments) when spellcasting ... now if someone uses magic in battles, ummmmm, let's say a turn is 10 segments. OK? Or several different ways to measure skill proficiency: Some have levels (originally two, later this got expanded to 5 or even more), some are percentage based, how these relate is a great mystery. | |

A Wizard Did It | |
| MAGUS (Tabletop Game) / int_6bfc52a3 | comment |
A Wizard Did It: Well, the standard answer for implausible being and ability combinations (like the 'stealth giant') were "Inherited magical abilities" which is just one step away from "It's magic, we don't have to explain it!". Also for the geographical and larger scale weirdness (Anything that would fit under Scifi Writers Have No Sense Of Scale and various Artistic License tropes) "It's a created world" ... so "The Gods Did It!". Which one and how (as there were many and the rise of humanity was a fairly recent event according to setting material) was never explained. | |

Recursive Canon | |
| MAGUS (Tabletop Game) / int_735e71c2 | comment |
Recursive Canon: OK. The tabletop game and novels are inspired by the "Adventurer Chronicles" kept by monks in a remote monastery of the gameworld. There were also hints that it's a Reality-Writing Book in ways (one canonical NPC-s managed to erase himself from it... which made him Immune to Fate). | |

RetCon | |
| MAGUS (Tabletop Game) / int_b2279346 | comment |
Retcon: The game world (Ynev) began as Standard Fantasy Setting then the more and more supplemental material got published the darker and bleaker it became. Around the turn of the century it was basically The Dung Ages with traces of Dungeon Punk. Or for a smaller scale example: The elves were the tolkienesque Incorruptible Pure Pureness at the beginning but turned into a Dying Race of Absolute Xenophobes, who are just marginally less homicidal than the other old races. | |

Light Is Not Good | |
| MAGUS (Tabletop Game) / int_e543a655 | comment |
Light Is Not Good / Good Is Not Nice: Depending of interpretation the one god Domvik, Sogron the Kyr god of fire (and knowledge) counts too, and the Elves. Generally it is hard to find nice and merciful gods, old races or anyone powerful even when they embody light or are nominally good. | |

Measuring time in turns in battles but in seconds (it's segments) when spellcasting ... now if someone uses magic in battles, ummmmm, let's say a turn is 10 segments. OK? | |

Rule expansions: Második törvénykönyv (The Second Book of Law) which had new classes, races, weapons and special rules to make combat even more complicated; Új tekercsek (The New Scrolls) which is basically what ever got written (and not really playtested) from the Summarium rule revision so a Point Buy system and a revision of the skills (but still no unified mechanic). | |

Standard Fantasy Races | |
| MAGUS (Tabletop Game) / int_f97ad4fe | comment |
Standard Fantasy Races: Humans are the most numerous race on Ynev, divided into many nations. Elves are portrayed as an Absolute Xenophobe race looking down on everyone else; dwarves are your typical master craftsmen dwelling in underground kingdoms; orcs are mostly savage barbarians, but there are tamed "court orcs" enslaved by humans. Expansions introduced a handful of more unusual races, including the barbaric Cat Folk "khál". Goblins, giants, dragons, various forms of demons and undead, etc. exist as enemies. | |

Depending on the Writer | |

Depending on the Writer: One of the biggest problems of the game and the novels was the lack of unifying direction, which resulted in this and the Gameplay and Story Segregation. | |

Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale | |
| MAGUS (Tabletop Game) / int_ff481077 | comment |
Also for the geographical and larger scale weirdness (Anything that would fit under Scifi Writers Have No Sense Of Scale and various Artistic License tropes) "It's a created world" ... so "The Gods Did It!". Which one and how (as there were many and the rise of humanity was a fairly recent event according to setting material) was never explained. | |
