Posted Nov 16, 2020Hey, Mr. Morales, nice item! The progression of power feels natural. I would like to point out a couple things. First, the Ring of Fire ability in the Awakened state, the use of "they" in the last line is a little ambiguous as to whether it is referring to the wielder or the targets. I don't think it is much of an issue as the logical assumption is that the wielder can only use the ability once, but I thought I would mention it anyway.
Second, you did not set a restriction for the Fireball spell in the Exalted state. Assuming you cannot cast it at will, as the wording of the ability might suggest, what are the reset conditions? Also, I am assuming the "point you choose" must fall within the 150 foot range of the spell, since you also specified the 20 foot radius.
