Pasa'Chiks

The Pasa'Chiks are the Hamster sorcerers or psychics in The Real World. They help to hide the Hamsters from human view with what they call the Shadows.

The Psychic System

The Psychic system in The Real World is based on simple WILLPOWER rolls. Each power has a power level, just like a skill level, which is added to the Hamster's WILLPOWER. The character rolls a D12 to get less than, or equal to, WILLPOWER + POWER. If the roll is made then the Hamster loses a minimal ammount of STAMINA and the power works, if he fails then he loses much more STAMINA and the power fails.

Since most HAMSTERS have little STAMINA psychics can be dangerous, but also powerful. STAMINA lost from psychics returns at a rate of 1 STAMINA per 5 minutes of rest.
