magic laptops

[Library Ogre]

Sounds like something a TW could do, sure.

[drewkitty ~..~]

There is a novel in the Myth INC serise that deals with the idea of magical computers. Its the one with Skive being hide to get rid of the group of pervs who were hired as accountants by some sheep ppl.....that same ones who hire Skive .

[Scrud]

if the laptop is a tw creation, couldn't you pump in the appropriate PPE while running an executable file in order to create the spell effect?

Actually, I guess that would only require a TW hard drive.

I'm right now looking at my ipod on my desk.

I would choose a commador

On a related note I can tell you from experiance do NOT let your player buy a video-nerve-splice implant, a cyberjack and a good high storage O.B.C. in phayseworld........several hundred preloaded spellscrolls projected at your command on your retina is very, very, VERY bad..........

Sounds fine, just add some percentile rolls for exactly what scroll/spell/incantaion is displayed, with varying degrees of success. And of course the option of total failure ("Turn Dead?! I needed Fly! waisted turn )

IMHO, the most awesome Spell Storge Device is the Create Vajra Spell.
Linking that to a computer via Lightning Rider, Machine Merge, Telemech-
anics, Ibid, Ect. would blow any scroll-type spell away. Now with the
Spellbreather-Rifter not canon, you could make a living Magic spell-
Casting computer. TW Artificial Intelligence. Artificial Intelligence would
have to be a prerequisite if you really wanted something cool.

Well....

if you want a computer that has scrolls as txt. files, you could, but the Harddrive and RAM would crumble to dust once used.

As a TW device...doable, but you couldn't run but a handful of spells at once.

Scrolls on TW Flash Memory cards? Plug them into your USB (or equivalent, for Rifts) ports and the TW Computer runs them?

Thats actually a very good idea. Or burned to CD or similar media.

Brilliant!

Just remember, they'll still fry out-crumble to dust, ect. but you could in thory make a ton of copies without ever degrading before uing

In order to copy something, a computer has to read it.

What happens when you read it?

How about adding ley-line networking?

I was thinking th SAME thing with Ley Line Communication spells, and Magic Pigeon for when your "off the grid" (mystical Wi-Fi).
