What is Magi-Knights?

CREDITS
Magi-Knights is a Magical Girl and Sentai table top
roleplaying game with rules based on the 5th
Edition Open Gaming License, and is set in the
1990s. The theme and mechanics were heavily
inspired by shows and video games of that time Magi-Knights Assistant Game
period such as Sailor Moon and Mighty Designer & Project Manager:
Morphin' Power Rangers, while also drawing Kira Salgy
inspiration from more modern ones like Madoka
Magica and Pe rsona!
Magi-Knights. Each player creates a Magi-Knight
and teams up with other playe rs to form a Squadron.

This contains our Magi-Knight Class and its Archetypes,

Inside we also included a legendary item for
your game: The Shard of the Magi-Knight. Lastly,
we included a unique mini-game that any party can use
to generate their s ta tistics as a TEAM, which we think is
the most important aspect in a ny TTRPG and this is
doubly reflected and interwoven into every aspect of the
Magi-Knight RPG.

Magi-Knight
Channeling forth the energy from her
Soul Crystal, a young girl named Verity
cries out, "By the love that glows within
me, Heart... Unleash!" She is instantly
surrounded in a shimmering array of
swirling stars,hearts, and pink energy.
The surge of magic coalesces around her,
summoning forth her Soul Armaments:
powerful weapons and armor
embroidered with an armored weave
to deflect attacks from her assailants,
and a powerful Crystal Heart staff
that empowers the Magic Style that
she uses in battle.
A young man yells out his transformation
quote, "By the unknown immersed within me,
Veil... Unleash!" and is surrounded by dark
energy that snakes up his legs and covers his
body. The serpentine strands disappear and clad
his body in leather straps, an array of white belts,
and blue and black clothing. A dark cloak and hood
appear, along with his sword, the Blade of Destiny.
A chimera that looks like a red panda
with black horns, wings, and a long,
fluffy tail swoops down from above.
He rests upon a nearby perch,
"Good job, Dayen- I mean, Veil
Keeper! Now that you're here to back
up Heart Keeper, you two can give
these Outsiders a thrashing!"
The duo charges forward towards a
hovering, tentacled monstrosity with
leathery, cracked skin draped over an
emaciated, humanesque torso. Its six eyes
beam brightly and welcome the Magi-Knights
as an ephemeral and pleasant diversion.

Guardians of Justice
A Magi-Knight was once an ordinary person, until a loved
one or they themselves were about to meet an untimely
end. Time suddenly stopped, and the person was given a
choice, '½How Fate to take its course and claim the life it
has come for, or become a Magi-Knight and spend the rest
of their days fighting against an unseen force: The
Invading Evil."
A Magi-Knight is one who accepted the Herald's deal: one
life for another. Granted the privilege of carrying a Soul
Crystal, this object allows them to transform into a
Magi-Knight and destroy evil.
The personality of one who is enlisted to become a Magi-Knight varies
extensively, but ultimately they fight for justice, peace, and goodness. A
Magi-Knght and their squadron protect innocents from being abducted by
the horrific denizens of Elsewhere at great risk to their own personal safety.
