Dabble Pentacles — Legacy Witch Art
Pentacles is a legacy Witch Art of warding diagrams, fivefold symbolism, circles, runes and patterned magical boundaries. It belongs to the preserved d20 Dabble system.
Choose Pentacles If…
- You want protective diagrams, circles and geometric wards as your signature magic.
- You enjoy careful ritual placement and defensive preparation.
- You want the visual language of your spells to be immediately recognisable.
What it feels like to play: Pentacles makes space matter. Where a line is drawn, where a symbol faces and who stands inside the circle can all become part of the scene.
Legacy rules note
This Art uses the preserved d20 Witch rules. Its original prerequisites and spell progression remain below; other editions need a deliberate conversion.
Pentacle-workers use fivefold diagrams, circles and repeated geometric forms to focus wards, symbols and boundary magic. The original d20 write-up restricts the Art to non-chaotic Witches; campaigns may instead require disciplined diagrammatic practice.
Power: The witch gains the Spell Thematics feat affecting the Pentacles Dabble spell list, raising the DC of all affected spells by +1 and with the illusory manifestation always including images of pentacles.
