The judgment rendered by the triple-power is fair but dispassionate. Rather than a power in game-terms, this spell is more of a plot device, although in practical terms the player can invoke this power by spending a hero point, which is the equivalent of asking the GM for inspiration (Deluxe Hero’s Handbook, page 21).)

Complications
- Enemies: Stephen has made several enemies during his time as a Master of the Mystic Arts, including but not limited to Dormammu, Baron Mordo and the Skinwalker.
- Motivation: Responsibility: Stephen is the Sorcerer Supreme of the Earth Realm, and therefore responsible for protecting it from extradimensional and intradimensional threats, be they of a mystical nature or otherwise.
- Narrow Focus: Stephen has limited himself to the use of what some would refer to as White Magic, which can sometimes lead to situations where his magic is ill-suited to the task of overcoming a particularly bothersome opponent.
- Power Loss: Due to his training, Strange requires the ability to use his hands and speak the requisite incantations when casting his spells. As such, effects which deprive him of that capacity will cost him the ability to perform his magic.
- Significant Other: Stephen is the godfather of young Harry Potter, and responsible for ensuring that he is well cared for and has the education necessary to become an upstanding member of both mundane and magical society.
