Computer science terms that sound like fantasy RPG abilities

I’ll start:

  • Firewall
  • Virtual Memory
  • Single source of truth
  • Lossless Compression (this one sounds really powerful for some reason)

Your turn

Hard mode: Try not to include closer to domain-specific things like javascript library names

        alternatively just an HVAC technician who casts enchantments

        “For the last time i am NOT an ‘installation wizard’, i am an engineer! I didn’t spend 5 years studying enchantments just for people to compare me to bedsheet-wearing dementia-addled codgers!”

      Roll for intelligence… 16. The progress of the one hit BEG killing spell is 33%

      <many turns later>

      Roll for intelligence… 3. The progress of the one hit BEG killing spell is 96%. That’s the only action you can take on your turn. You better hope the party can stop the army from hitting the power source of this spell before it finishes.

      Roll for intelligence… 5. Since that would be more than 100 the progress of the spell rolls back to 91%.
