All these spells take 2 months to learn unless otherwise stated in the spell. ***Note - If a character was regged with these spells prior to the magic system being put in place, it doesn't mean they've attained that level or can learn any more of that level until they go back and learn the previous levels starting with level 1 and working their way up.*** Edited 11:35pm, January 02 by Mab, author.  3rd (and last) Level Paladin Spells (Converted from AD&D) Statheros Oridaen 11:00pm, January 04, 2004 [Edit] [Delete] Holy Sword: Such as the title, the caster is able to imbue his weapon with holy energy, it doing double the damage against evil.

The mount, once recieved, will not allow any other to ride it unless specifically instructed to by its owner. Should the mount be killed, the Knight may not summon a new one for 2 years. Last Rites: This powerful spell erases any lingering taint from a soul before it progesses on to the next life. Holy Vengence: By invoking the ire of those whom he serves, a Knight of the Rose may call down the weight of their target's sins, which manifest in a bolt of reddish white lightning. Those struck by this bolt burst into flame, being consumed by their own misdeeds. Last Stand: A Knight of the Rose may lay hands upon a deceased ally and revive them to life by sacrificing themselves. To do this, the Knight must first cut themselves along their wrists and use the blood to inscribe a rose on the recipient's chest..and bend their head in prayer until the deceased returns to the living. When that person does..the Knight will die.

It can shoot around corners, but not in a zig-zag shape, eg., you could cast it with lightning bolt to start the bolt on the other side of a hill, 2 miles away, but the size of the bolt is still the same. ALPHA'S AURORA BOREALIS (EVOCATION) Level: 3 Range: 0 Duration: Special Area of Effect: 1'/level radius ring This spell causes a sheet of dancing, shifting light to spring up around the caster, encompassing any area up to the maximum indicated by the caster's level. The Aurora will last as long as the caster concentrates on it (concentration can be maintained while moving at half-speed, but the caster cannot fight or cast other spells, though speech is allowed). Any creature actually touching the Aurora will suffer quite a bit of damage. Fungoid monsters, undead take extra damage from this. The material component of this spell is a clear gemstone or crystal prism worth not less than 100 g.p., a glowworm, and a pinch of phosphorus. ALPHA'S BLUE BLAZE (EVOCATION/CONJURATION) Level: 3 Range: 0 Duration: Instantaneous Area of Effect: Fan-shaped area 50' long, 20' at terminus By utterance and extending either arm, the caster causes a fan-like sheet of heated, purplish, acidic vapors and blue flames to leap forth from his or her outstretched hand. ALPHA'S LIGHTNING ARMOR (ABJURATION/EVOCATION) Level: 3 Range: Touch Duration: 3 minutes Area of Effect: Creature touched Ths subject of this spell cannot be wearing metal armor of any sort, nor carrying a metallic weapon larger than a shortsword. Bracers are permissible. The creature touched is completely protected from electrical damage of any sort so long as the spell is in effect. Damage is absorbed by the Lightningarmor after saving throws and any other protections have been taken into account. The creature under the effects of this spell carry a negative electrical charge, and skin-to-skin contact with another creature will cause minor electrical damage with no saving throw, as will contact through a conductor. Those within 5' of of a character with this spell in effect may catch a faint scent of ozone and feel their hair standing a bit on end. The material component of this spell is a bit of copper wire and glass thread wrapped in clay. Alpha's Spectral Hound (Conjuration, Phantasm) Level 3 Effects immediate Area up to ½ mile Duration 30 minutes This spell brings into being a quasi-real beast appearing as a war dog with black fur, grey ruff and tail, milky grey eyes, and insubstantial paws which make no sound. The creature will have average Intelligence and can converse with the wizard in the common tongue. The creature can fight, The spectral hound can track any creature known to the wizard, provided the wizard concentrates on a mental picture of the figure for 2 full rounds. The hound can follow the trail of such a creature with 100% certainty, -5% per hour the trail is old. The hound also has infravision to 90 feet, can spot hidden (such as in shadows) things 80% of the time, invisible objects 65% of the time. Further, the hound may cross muddy or swampy ground, or even water, as if were solid, dry ground. The hound leaves no tracks. By concentrating for one full round, the wizard can make use of the hound's sensory abilities for as long as desired, though this does not allow communication beyond normal vocal range. The hound is unaffected by any spells which alter its form or restrict or affect its movement (haste, slow, hold monster, etc.). If a mind control spell is cast upon the creature it wills itself out of existence. It is further immune to poison and death magics. The hound will speak only to the wizard, and, if the wizard is killed, feebleminded, charmed, or otherwise mentally incapacitated, then the hound will immediately cease to exist. Alpha's Starshield (Abjuration, Alteration) Level 3 Effects immediate Duration 30 minutes When this spell is cast, the wizard's body is sheathed in a nearly skin-tight magical screen. This screen has the appearance of a black night sky filled with stars. Whenever a light-related spell of any sort is cast at the creature using the starshield, the spell will be harmlessly absorbed and redirected back at the caster of the spell. This includes such spells as light (if cast so as to blind), sunray, and. An area effect spell where the wizard is the sole target will automatically be reflected in this way. Area effect light spells in which others are also targeted have a chance of being intercepted and redirected by the wizard as above equal to the wizard's chance to negate the spell with a dispel magic spell. The protected wizard will be unaffected by the spell in any event, and if the spell is successfully absorbed, those behind the wizard who would have been in the area of effect are spared the effects of the spell. Darkness spells (eg. darkness, 15-foot radius, continual darkness) will also be reflected, just as light spells are,. If outdoors under the night sky, the wizard can see as if in broad daylight, even through magical areas of darkness. Alter Personality Level 3 Effects immediate (Duration: 1 hour The mage can alter the subject's personality as he sees fit. He can add or erase memories, add or subtract learned mental disadvantages, erase learned mental advantages or skills, and generally alter the subject's temperament, beliefs, and values Amnesia Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 1 hour Causes the subject to forget his past and any conscious memory of having certain skills or ethics, Animate Ghoul (Necromancy) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 10 yards Duration: Permanent This spell creates a higher form of undead, a ghoul, from the body of any humanoid. The body must be reasonably intact. The ghoul usually obeys the commands of its animator, though it is free willed. If the wizard appears weak or vulnerable, the ghoul will turn on him. This is not a common occurrence, as ghouls tend to be cowards. They will not carry out suicidal requests. Animate Statue (Alteration) Level: 3 Range: Touch Duration: Permanent Area of Effect: 2 statues This spell allows the caster to animate 2 statue for every 1 level of the caster. The effects are permanent or until it's destroyed, and follow the caster's commands without question. Aziel's Protect Building from Fire (Abjuration) Reversible Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 10 yards per level Duration: Permanent Area of Effect: One building This spell renders an area completely immune to fire. No normal fires will burn within the area of effect. Magical fires will burn but will not ignite anything. This spell will not stop damage from heat. The reverse of this spell, Aziel's building's vulnerability to fire, will negate the protection, but its area of effect is limited to only affect certain small areas to allow for fireplaces and cooking hearths within the protected area. This spell was created to protect the Great Library of Alexandra in my campaign. The building must fit in a 50-foot per level of the caster cube. The material component for this spell is a miniature maquette of the house being protected from fire. Azura's Death Shadow (Conjuration/Summoning, Necromancy) Level 3 Effects immediate Duration 24 hours or 1 attack Upon casting a death shadow, the wizard brings forth a special creature from the elemental plane of shadow. The recipient of the death shadow feels a chilling sensation followed by warmth as it merges with his actual shadow. Thereafter, once a situation occurs where the recipient takes a death stroke of any sort the shadow pushes him to a place of safety and takes the death stroke itself, disappearing in a black puff of smoke. The spell may last up to one day per spell level of the wizard before the shadow departs. Note that the death shadow does not provide an instant escape route from certain death (being immersed in acid, falling off a cliff, etc.). It merely takes one death blow which would have normally killed the character, and there must be an immediate place of safety within 10 feet for the shadow to place its host Blackthorn's Calm Water reversible lvl 3 Range: 1000 sq'/ level Duration: 20 minutes / lvl Area of Effect: 1000 sq' / lvl Description: This spell reduces wave action in the area of effect to the equivalent of calm water. Chop, whitecaps, and violent storm waves are reduced by 1 foot per level of the caster, although there might be a noticeable swell in the water if the water itself is storm-tossed. The reverse creates waves in the specified area that are up to 1 foot tall per level of the caster. Blackthorn's Calm Wind reversible lvl 3 Range:10'+1'/ level Duration:3 turns/ level Area of Effect: 500' diameter circle. Description: The spell creates an "eye of the storm" effect, reducing even gale-force winds to a breeze within the area of effect. The mage can reduce the wind by 5mph per level of the caster. The caster can also redirect the winds in any direction the mage wills. The mage can also control the speed of the wind. Ocean waves are unaffected by this spell, and storm-tossed waters will continue to batter a ship even thought the wind has ceased to be a problem. the spell has no effect on precipitation and fog only the wind that accompanies it. Blackthorns Hellhound lvl 3 Range:9" +1"/ level Duration:1 day/ level Area of Effect:special Description: This spell creates a huge (350lb, 3 1/2 feet at the shoulder, and 6' feet long) black wolf with glowing white eyes, vaguely man-shaped in appearance, raised upright in a half-crouch. It's a strong creature, lean and heavily muscled. It's skin is a strange black color, drawn tight against its powerful body, it is hairless. Great hooked claws curl from its paws, and its snout split wide in a hideous grin revealing a mass of razor sharp shark teeth. . Its skin is fairly tough, and can be augmented by other spells. The caster can have the hound guard him in which case the creature will stay within a 10' foot radius, and/or the caster can send the hound to attack a creature that the caster can see Blackthorn Linking Spell lvl 3 Range:touch Duration:special Area of Effect:10' x 10'/ level Description: This spell postpones the activation of one spell cast until a certain thing happens in the linked area of effect (which can be of any size the caster desires, up to the casters maximum). This triggering event may be as simple or as complex as the caster desires. The link may also be triggered by the activation of a spell cast or placed on or in the area. The caster must cast the linking spell immediately after casting the link spell.Only subjects that are in the spells area of effect can trigger the linked spell's effect. A creature summoned with this spells help are not bound by the area of effect of the link. There is no delay when the link is triggered it is activated instantly.An "instantaneous" spell like fireball will happen once, when activated; then the spell will be gone. A continuing spell like light will start and then operate until it expires. But when the linked spell expires both spells expire. For instantaneous spells the link vanishes after activation of the spell. The link may also be set up in reverse to stop one spell when a triggering event occurs (all thou that is very risky, see dispel magic).Only one linked spell can be placed on the same object, or creature at any one time. If a second is cast upon the first it is cancelled. The spells that can be linked are prescribed by the casters experience level, but not higher than a 4th level spell. Block Teleport (Abjuration) Level 3 Effects immediate Area of Effect: 100-foot radius sphere Duration 10 minutes This spell prevents anyone from teleporting into or out of the area of effect while the spell is in effect. It will not effect homing teleport spells (eg. word of recall). It will also not effect gates. Break Connections Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 1 month for body parts, permanent for objects This spell allows the subject to break the mystical connections he imparts to hair, fingernail trimmings, clothing, and so forth, making objects affected by this spell useless for creating a Poppet or an Arcane Connection If this spell is cast on the subject's body, it will retroactively sever the connection between the subject and any hair, scales, blood, etc. they might have shed up to a month previously Brizbane's Instant Battalions (Conjuration/Summoning) Level: 3 Range: See below Duration: 1 hour / lvl Area of Effect: special Components: Rock, clay, and a drop of blood When cast the surrounding materials (rocks, sand, ect.) assemble into the form of humanoid figures roughly 4.5 feet tall. The caster is able to create 5 creatures per level. They will attack what ever the caster desires as long as it is within sight Cantrip Permanency (All) Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: permanent cantrip permanency must be cast on an object to be effective. The object must be appropriate to the cantrip - eg. a cloth for polish, a paintbrush for colour, a salt cellar for salt. When complete, the duration of the cantrip (or the number of times it may be invoked) is increased dramatically.. If the cantrip is one that does not have a duration per se (eg. clean, exterminate, polish), then the power of the cantrip may be invoked from the item a maximum of once per hour. Casting Circle Level 3 Effects immediate Area 1 yard Duration: 1 minute or until critical failure on a spell l A casting circle is similar to the Pentagram spell, except that rather than protecting the mage or containing magical creatures it aids in the casting of spells and mitigates the effects of magical backfires Like a pentagram, a casting circle must be physically drawn on the floor and can be disrupted by rubbing out the lines. (Note that the "casting circle" is a generic term. The actual form of the markings can be any one of a number of magical symbols.) Chaos Armor (Necromancy, Alteration) Level: 3 Range: 0 Duration: Permanent Area of Effect: 1 creature This spell grants the creature touched a permanent AC of 3 and grants a +2 bonus on all magical saving throws. It appears as if the caster has metal plates fused to his or her skin. The material component of this spell is a full suit of platemail which vanishes once the spell is cast. Chill Touch Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 5 seconds or until the subject is touched. Effects are instantaneous When this spell is cast, a dark blue glow encompasses the caster's hand and his touch does damage just by its deathly chill touch This spell has a special effect upon undead. Undead touched by the caster suffer no damage The caster must touch the subject. Coma Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 1 day This spell puts the subject into a deep dreamless sleep from which they cannot waken. Nothing will awaken the afflicted character except the application of a counterspell or the Remove Curse spell. The Awaken spell will also revive the character, Unless sustained by magic or high tech means, a person in a coma will eventually die of dehydration or starvation, though this spell doesn't make them grow hungrier or thirstier any faster than they would normally Combine Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: The duration of the two subsequent spells This spell allows the caster to throw two spells at once. The first spell is cast normally, but is saved until the second spell is completed. Some spells will change or cancel if they are combined. For example, Water Jet would cancel Fireball. Range, duration and other effects are always those of the less useful spell. If the caster wishes it, the second spell can be slightly delayed until the first spell takes effect, but in this case, the second spell has no effect if the first spell fails. Likewise, if either spell fails the whole combined effect fails. Condition Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 1 hour This spell is similar to the Link and Delay spells, but this spell makes a second spell trigger only when certain conditions are met. For example, a spell could be set up so that it is triggered only if people (or a certain sort of people) are in the are a of effect, when a person of a certain type touches an item, when people are looking at the place hex where the magic spell will go off (or not looking), etc. While this spell exists, both it, and any spells it modifies are considered to be "on" spells. Control Water Range: 400 feet Difficulty: 3 Method: spoken Effect: This spell allows the caster to control the waters in a few ways, He or she can lower the water level, causing it to sink away to a minimum depth of one Inch, At sea and other deep bodies of water, the spell creates whirlpools that sweep ships downward and putting them at risk of sinking. Also the level can be rased, rising in hieght to sweep over Riverbanks, beaches and so forth, useful for sweeping away people and other things. Darklight's Creeping Frost Curse (Alteration, Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: Permanent Area of Effect: Structure touched This spell is a relatively insidious and nasty way to render a fortification useless. The wizard casting it touches a portion of a man-made structure (castle, etc.) of less than small-city size and casts the spell. A patch of frost in the shape of the wizard's hands will then form. Every 3 turns thereafter, the patch will grow irregularly, covering 10 yards of additional radius, and unless stopped, will coat the entire structure with an exceptionally cold layer of icy frost. Dispel magic, if successful, will force the frost back 10 yards in radius, but the original patch cannot be dispelled with dispel magic alone. Fire spells will remove the frost within their area of damage until the frost spreads back over the burned spots in time. The original area can only be removed with the casting of remove curse and flame strike together. This will disrupt the spell entirely. A structure coated in this ice will be at least 20 degrees C lower in temperature than the surrounding climate, and even lower in a hot area. The ice is also very slick, making movement upon it hazardous. Darklight's Lightning Web (Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 10 yards per level Area of Effect: One 5-yard long square per level Duration permanent unless touched This spell must be anchored as a web spell, and superficially acts as one. However, the network of strands in this spell are composed of crackling electricity. When caught, after the initial jolt, they must hold perfectly still or risk breaking additional strands (strands vanish when broken). To escape, one can try to move out carefully They may then safely remain lying where they have collapsed without risking further shock. Creatures immune to electrical damage are, of course, immune to the effects and can break the strands easily and without fear. Large amounts of water sprayed into the web will disperse it in a crackling, sparking burst. However, if anyone is hit by the water as well, they will conduct the spell's energy Darklight's Mental Stabilizer (Enchantment) Level 3 Effects immediate Area person touched Duration: Permanent This spell can help those afflicted with either natural or magical insanity. The spell will cure one specific insanity. If a being is suffering from multiple forms of insanity, it requires multiple castings. However, only one casting can be attempted each week for a specific individual. Darklight's Searing Disk (Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 15 yards Duration until caster ends spell or disk is destroyed This spell conjures a white-hot, 6-foot wide floating disk of iron. The caster can manoeuvre the disk about at a rate of MV 20 by mental command. The disk cannot be moved farther than the above range, and can be stopped instantly, as if without any inertia, by the caster's command. It can be used to strike and pummel creatures within range, Only disruption of the wizard's concentration can free the trapped creature if the wizard does not free them himself. Creatures resistant to heat and fire take only half damage from any application of the disk. Disruption of the wizard's concentration does not cause the disk to disappear, but merely to hang motionless until the wizard resumes active control. Any cold-based attack or spell directed at the disk causes it to shatter from thermodynamic shock, instantly ending the spell. Darkray's Blade of Light (Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Duration permanent Upon casting this spell, the invoker must join his two hands in front of him, as if he was holding a two-handed sword. He then channels magical energy to form a four feet pole of blue-white light, which springs out of his grasped hands. He can use it silently and he is immune to its effects. The pole can perform as a magical sword. The blade cannot cut through solid metal or stone. It has the following abilities, at the caster's mental command: * Fear, The caster usually employs this as his first action with the blade. * Lightning bolt, once. A lightning bolt effect * Swing, once. The caster can swing the blade and thus have a chance to hit every opponent in melee with him. Undead take half damage from the blade and are not affected by drain life and fear effects. All special powers can be used simultaneously with a normal attack, except for lightning bolt. attack and succeed automatically, inflicting double damage every round. The wizard can still use any remaining special powers of the blade, except swing. The spell ends if the wizard loses control of his hands (including charm, possession etc.), a successful dispel magic is cast upon him, if he casts a limited wish or similar magic or if he enters a dead magic area (for example, an anti-magic shell, a dispelling screen, etc.). Note that the caster cannot end the spell at will. Darkray's Chest (Alteration, Summoning) Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 1 week + 1 week per level Duration permament This spell is used to protect some "hot" and vulnerable items, such as spellbooks, scrolls and material components. The wizard leaves these in a specially prepared place and then uses a small "linking device" to recall them to his current place. The store must be created first. This is a chest of up to 4x3x3 foot size. It can have compartments or secret mechanisms and traps. The exterior must be crafted from pure obsidian and carved with scenes of the wizard's life. Regardless of the contents, the chest always weighs 15 pounds. As long as they fit inside, spellbooks, maps, scrolls, potions, coins, etc., can be stored in the chest, with the exception of weapons: only one weapon can be stored. In addition, everything in the chest must have been in the property of the wizard for at least 24 consecutive hours before storage, otherwise the chest will not function at all. Then the wizard must construct two identical "linking" devices. These can be almost anything but they must be made of metal. Usually they are something small and discreet, such as earrings or rings or bracelets. The wizard then casts the spell on them and the chest. One of them fuses inside the chest, thus providing the necessary link with the other device. From then on and for the spell's duration, the wizard leaves the chest in a presumably well guarded place and carries the second device, always in contact with his flesh (failure to do so ends the spell). Three times per day, the wizard can summon the chest. He can then examine or alter the contents, use his spellbooks to memorise spells, etc. He can send the chest back to its hiding place or keep it, as he likes. Summoning and sending away the chest count as an action and require one round each. A wizard can only have one such chest in operation at any given time. Darkray's Elemental Immunity (Abjuration) Level 3 Effects immediate Area: caster Duration permanent by each casting This powerful spell offers protection against attacks of elemental nature. It can selectively block attacks based on air, earth, fire and water. The type of the element must be stated at memorisation time. It is a weaker version (although not exactly similar) of elemental aura. Once the spell is cast, the wizard and his possessions are totally immune to all attacks of that element. However, attacks from the other elements automatically succeed and attacks from the opposite element inflict double damage as well, if not otherwise blocked: the caster lowers his resistance to them in order to better protect himself against the fourth one. Example: if the caster is immune to fire, a water or earth elemental could hit him with no attack roll needed; the water would cause double damage. * Air attacks include: air, electricity, wind, gases, clouds. * Earth attacks include: wood or stone weapons, any piece of rock not larger than the caster and attacks from stone golems. * Fire attacks include: fires, heat, lava and the like. * Water attacks include: rain, ice and cold, acids. The spell protects against both natural and magical attacks, for example lightning bolt, fireball, Melf's acid arrow, watery double... The caster also gains immunity to physical attacks from creatures of the relevant plane (including conjured elementals). Breath attacks using an element (sand breath, gas breath) are not immune against. The caster cannot use this spell to travel within a given element (natural air excluded). He cannot, for example, breathe underwater or dive in a pit full of silt. In addition, this spell does not function in the elemental planes. At any given time, the caster can be immune against a single element only. Subsequent casting of this spell with a different element stated cancels the previous one. This of course has nothing to do with magical items that offer element protection, which always operate normally. Dispel Magic: Such as the title, the caster is able to Dispel Magic. To Cast: Diaskorpizo Time Lasts: Instantaneous Radius: 100 ft. Compromised by: Stronger magic (i.e. higher level spell). Only Greater Dispel can cancel out very potent magic. THIS ONE IS A SPECIAL CASE AND AMOUNG THE FEW THAT JUST GETS STRONGER AS A CHARACTER PROGRESSES THROUGH THE LEVELS AND IS AUTOMATICALLY KNOWN TO A MAGE THAT KNOWS ANY SPELLS OTHER THAN CANTRIPS. ITS EFFECTIVENESS DEPENDS ON THE LEVEL OF THE MAGE. IF YOUR CHARACTER KNOWS ANY LEVEL ONE SPELLS, THEY KNOW THIS ONE AUTOMATICALLY. YEAH, LET ME JUST REPEAT MYSELF WITH DIFFERENT WORDING. *L* ANYWAYS, YOU GET THE IDEA. Divert Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 1 hour This spell will divert people away from a place unless they are specifically looking for it. For example, if a mage were to cast this spell on a building, unless someone was specifically trying to find that building they could never find it. Double-Helix Fireball (Invocation/Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 40 yards Duration: Instantaneous When cast, two fireballs rush towards their target, in a double-helix motion.. This may not be a very good spell, but it sure is neat looking. Dragon Senses (Alteration) Level: 3 Range: 0 Duration: 2 minutes/level Area of Effect: Caster Components: 1 dragon scale This spell grants the caster complete senses of a dragon. See invisible objects 10', ect. This spell lasts for 2 minutes per caster level. Duplicate Level 3 Effects immediate Area item no larger than 6’x6’ Duration: Permanent Creates a perfect copy of any non-living, non-magical item. In order to duplicate the item, the caster must have raw materials of equal or better quality and quantity to those used to make the original. Inferior quality materials or different materials c an be used for the duplicate, but in that case the "duplicate" won't be an exact copy, but instead will be an obvious fake, possibly of inferior quality Elemental Join (Alteration, Elemental, Enchantment/Charm) Range: 5 yards per level Duration: 1 turn per level Area of Effect: One elemental With this spell, the wizard physically joins his body with an elemental. Once the wizard's body has joined with the elemental, the wizard can use all the abilities of the elemental's body as his own, however, as the wizard's body and any equipment on it are transformed into the appropriate element and joined with the elemental's body, this equipment cannot be used in any way while inside the elemental's body. The only spells that can be cast are those not requiring material components (those components are stuck inside the elemental's body), and even then the elemental must be able to speak (I don't think most can). The wizard may end the spell at any time. The wizard's body appears anywhere within 10 feet of the elemental. If the elemental is one the wizard has conjured, he may dismiss it at the same time; if not, the elemental is likely to be furious, so the wise wizard will be cautious. Note that both caster and elemental will be confused and disoriented (no action) for 1 round after the separation. The maximum duration in any case is 1 turn per level of the caster. There are several important things to note about this spell. if the elemental's body is slain with the wizard inside, the wizard dies. Erase Personality Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 1 hour The subject loses all memories, learned mental advantages or disadvantages, and personality traits for the duration of the spell. They can still act to protect or defend themselves, but they will take no other action. They can still speak, but will not r ecognize former associates and they will not have any "moral compass" to guide their behavior. They behave like a robot in all other ways acting as if they had the No Sense of Humor disadvantage. Everlasting Wound Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: Permanent This spell is identical to the Unhealing Wound spell, except that the wound will never permanently heal, even if Healing magic or psionics are used on it. The wound will seem to heal normally, but the day after it seems to finally heal, it will reappear with all the effects that it had when it was first inflicted. Magic and psionic healing still works, but the wound will still open the day after it is heal ed. Only Remove Curse or Great Healing will permanently remove this spell Exploding Ice Sphere Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: Instantaneous This spell is like the Exploding Fireball spell in all respects except that it will not set flammable material on fire. False Doom Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 10 seconds Gives the subject a vision of the mage's death, while temporarily rendering the mage invisible to the subject. While the spell is in effect, the subject thinks that he is killing the mage, while in actuality, the mage is sneaking away. Any attack or host ile action by the mage, or any action by the mage (except fleeing or hiding) that would draw the subject's attention to him immediately cancels this spell. Note that the mage is still visible to other people besides the subject and the subject seems to stand still, as if in a trance, for the duration of the spell. At the end of the spell's duration, the victim will be convinced that the mage is dead and wil l not notice that the body has somehow "vanished". The mage can cast this spell on more than one person Feign Death Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 1 hour This spell causes a willing subject to be placed in a cataleptic sleep indistinguishable from death. The subject is completely comatose, and cannot even be reached with Telepathy or Dream spells. There is no way to tell if the subject is still alive. Bleeding is stopped, as are breathing and heartbeat. This can be useful if the subject is in danger of bleeding to death, or has been poisoned, or has been locked in an area with no air. Once the spell ends, poison will continue its effects. If the caster is the subject, he can specify how long he will Feign Death,. He will then awaken at the end of that period. Fellstar's Flame Arc (Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Area as described below Duration: Instantaneous This spell is similar to the 1st-level burning hands, but it is much more potent. When cast, this spell will emit an arc of flames from the hand of the caster; the arc may be one of four sizes as listed on the following table: Arc (degrees) Range 90 200 feet 180 150 feet 270 100 feet 360 50 feet The arc of flames will have a width of one foot, centred on the caster's hand, so the height of the wizard's hand at the time of casting will determine the height of the flames; thus if the flames are at waist level, it is possible to escape the effects of this spell if lying prone. The caster may elect to cast the arc in a "doughnut" shape; that is, he may create an area around himself that is untouched by the flames (a good idea if the caster is in the midst of a friendly party). The radius of the hole may be any size the caster desires, up to half the range as given in the table above. These flames are blocked by obstacles, and they will not rejoin behind the barrier. This will create gaps in the arc; therefore, if a target is standing behind a large enough obstacle, he will be shielded from the flames, even if the blocking obstacle is tens of feet away. Fellstar's Flame Dome (Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 80 yards Duration: immediate This spell is similar to a wall of fire, but it creates a dome of flames instead of a wall. The dome has a radius along the ground of 10 feet plus 5 feet per level of the caster; it is 25 feet high at its peak. The dome must be cast so its base is resting on solid ground. Unlike a wall of fire, the flame dome gives off waves of heat on all sides; anyone within 20 feet suffer points of damage. In addition, the dome inflicts damage, on anyone who passes through the dome (like a wall of fire, creatures subject to fire will suffer more damage and undead always suffer double damage Fireblast (Evocation) Level 3 Range: 10 yards + 10 yards per level Duration: Instantaneous Area of Effect: 20-foot radius A fireblast is an explosive burst of flame, which detonates with a low roar and delivers damage proportional to the level of the wizard who cast it - Unlike fireball, fireblast creates a lot of pressure and generally tries to conform the shape of the area in which it occurs to its shape. In essence, it creates a 20 foot radius crater. Besides causing damage to creatures, the fireblast ignites combustible materials, forces non-combustible items to save versus crushing blow or be destroyed, melts soft metals, and creates general havoc. If cast indoors or within range of a building or other structure, structural damage will most likely occur Fireblast otherwise performs and is cast just like fireball. Fire Skin Range: Caster's body or touch Duration: Until countered Area of Effect: 1 body This spell is identical to stoneskin except that when the caster is hit, the attacker takes fire damage. The higher the level of the wizard, the brighter and more damaging the skin becomes. Magical attacks will of course affect the recipient normally except for fire-based ones, non-magical fire will also not have any effect. The material component needed for this spell is any source of flame and Fire gem dust sprinkled on skin of recipient.

It takes a few moments to cast Effect: Flame rains down from the heaves in thick roaring waves, that incenirate all that is not fireproof in the center, and partially melting things like metal and whatnot, and at the edges it burniates real good, but wouldn't melt metal. Beyond that it's just "ow ow ow!" hot for a ways. **Note, this tends to be more of a demon spell, also common with other fire species** Fist of the Element (Elemental (All), Evocation) Level 3 Range: 40 feet Area of Effect: 3-foot per level radius sphere Duration 1 attack This creates a large fist composed of the chosen element of the caster. The type of element may be any one of the classic four (air, earth, fire, and water) and is chosen at the moment of casting. The fist attacks any creature the wizard wishes within the area of effect. Force Blast (Invocation/Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 20 yards per level Duration: Instantaneous Force blast is a more powerful version of force bolt.

If the subject's body is intact, the soul is returned to the body. If the body is dead, the soul is released to the afterlife. Undead souls released by this spell do not return to unlife. Glamden's Acid Fire (Invocation/Evocation) Level 3 Range: 5 yards + 10 yards per level Duration: Instantaneous Area of Effect: 10x10x5 feet per level cloud This spell causes an acid cloud to form anywhere within range of the spell; the cloud billows out to its full dimensions (10x10x5 feet for each level of the wizard) instantaneously and everyone caught inside the area of effect suffers damage. Immediately after the acid cloud forms, it bursts into flames, inflicting damage to all inside. Glamden's Gas Jet (Invocation/Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: Instantaneous Area of Effect: 5-foot wide, 10-foot per level long beam This spell is similar to Glamden's other spells, acid fire and acidic gas; when this spell is cast, a jet of green gas shoots from the wizard's palm; a split-second later, the gas erupts in flames. This jet is 10 feet long per level of the wizard, and is 5 feet wide; Globe of Fire (Invocation/Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Duration 5 minutes Globe of fire is a wizard's last line of defense. When cast, a fireball goes off, centred on the wizard. However, the caster takes no damage from this fireball, and can act as if the fire did no exist (i.e., can see and hear normally). Any creature within 5 foot per level of the caster takes damage Notice that the actual area of effect is left up to the caster, though the maximum size is 5 foot per level. Also, the spell lasts for a short while, protecting the wizard from physical attacks (i.e., swords, arrows, claws, etc., miss since the wizard is effectively shielded from view), weapons, and gaze attacks. As example, Jasper the mage is in way over his head. While travelling, he was beset by 20 bandits. So, he casts globe of fire to keep the attackers at bay. Since he is a 4th-level wizard, a globe of fire springs up that is 20 feet in diameter. Anyone caught in the area of effect takes 1 damage, However, note that Jasper's horse is probably dead. Greencloak Level 3 Effects immediate Duration 1 week Cloaks the subject in a flowing garment made up of the earth and foliage that surrounds him. The cloak provides perfect camouflage for the wearer if he remains still The garment has will act as a normal wool cloak in cold weather and will lower the temperature under the cloak by 10 degrees in hot weather. The cloak will also repel water like a normal raincoat would. The materials used to make up the garment do not di rty or irritate the caster Gregori's Shadow (Divination, Illusion) Level 3 Effects immediate Area:caster Duration: 1 day To activate the spell, the wizard must touch the recipient's body anywhere a shadow is visible. causing the target's shadow to be replaced by casters shadow for the next 24 hours. During this time, the caster can concentrate and be able to hear and see all that is occurring around the recipient within a 20 foot radius. Gregori's shadow is made ineffective by the recipient entering an area of total darkness, such as that of a underground cavern or a darkness spell. In this case, the spell is ineffective until the recipient enters a condition where a shadow is again created. In addition, Gregori's shadow can be dispelled by a successful application of a dispel magic or remove curse cast upon the victim. It should be noted that during the course of the spell, the caster will not demonstrate a shadow whatsoever. Gregori's Spell Damper (Alteration) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 10 feet per level Duration 10 minutes Forever fearful of being outmatched by other spellcasters, Gregori devised this spell to potentially reduce the effectiveness of enemy wizards. causes the target spellcaster's spells to be reduced in effectiveness, which is represented as a temporary reduction of the target's level with regard to the spell's range, area of effect, damage and duration only. This in no way reduces the target's true level, number of castable spells or other abilities. Healing Seed Level 3 Effects immediate Duration 1 hour This spell will make a plant which already has ripe fruits, seeds or berries grow special "fruits" which will heal damage if eaten with 1 hour of being picked. the berries can be made permanent until they are consumed.

The ammount of ice can vary at random, from 250 pounds, all the way up to 4 tons. Improved Circle I (Invocation/Evocation, Metamagic) Level 3 Effects immediate Area as specified Duration variable This spell is similar to the 1st-level priest spell ring of hands (add all levels of wizards in the circle to the benefiting wizard's level for spell casting and memorising effects only) plus the added effect: the circle does not have to see the wizard that is to benefit from the spell. Thus, this spell can be used over a long distance. Each and every wizard in the circle has to cast the improved circle to make the circle work. This spell works through the telepathic link set up by the material component (see below). This telepathic link makes the caster especially susceptible to enchantment/charm type spells - unless immune to such spells due to high Wisdom or item effects. It lasts until one of the wizards in the circle is disturbed in his concentration, one of the wizards steps out of the circle, or the benefiting wizard ends the spell voluntarily. Note: the benefiting wizard may be hurt, feebleminded, slain, resurrected or whatever, but his contact with the circle is not broken unless his body leaves the same plane or his own stone is broken or somebody real powerful interrupts the telepathic link The material component is a stone with a permanent mindlink on it. These stones can be reused many times unless stolen or worn away by normal use. Each wizard in the circle needs his own stone to make the circle of wizards complete. Improved Wiley's Door (Alteration) Level 3 Effects immediate Area as specified Duration one use per casting This spell is like Wiley's door except that there is no limit to the amount of stuff that can be transported (except for the physical problems of getting that much stuff through the door) and the second door can be up to 200 yards distant.

Mage's Edge Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 1 minute, then 1 second once triggered Mage's Edge makes a solid, non-living, non-animate, blunt object, or part of one, able to cut for one second, even though it appears blunt to all senses save touch. One use for this spell is to make a temporary knife out of a stick when the caster needs to cut something. Another use is to make a blunt weapon temporarily do cutting damage instead of crushing damage. And a third usage is to lay a trap for the unwary. Any object or part of an object under the effect of Mage's Edge will cut any hand that grasps it. Thus, a pencil, coin, or sword hilt could become the source of a painful and perhaps debilitating wound. The mage must be able to see the target object in order to cast Mage's Edge upon it Mage Trap Level 3 Effects immediate Area 12’x12’ Duration: 1 hour This spell is almost identical to the Mage Ward spell, but it prevents magic-using creatures from leaving the affected area Mage Ward Level 3 Effects immediate Area 12’x12’ Duration: 1 hour This spell creates an area where no magical creature or spell-caster - except those designated by the mage can enter.

Malar's Alcohol Detonation (Alteration, Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 60 yards Duration: Instantaneous This rather mean-spirited spell causes alcoholic beverages within the area of effect to detonate violently. Fluids which are already within a being's system are immune to this effect, but a drink being held to one's mouth at the time of detonation will still explode. The wizard designates a spherical area of effect somewhere within range as his target point (with a maximum radius of 3 yards, and a minimum radius of one-half foot). All such beverages within this area will then immediately blow up. The explosion may cause incidental fires, and tends to leave behind rays of black carbonization on materials within the radius.

Moloranis' Marvellous Map (Invocation/Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: Instantaneous Area of Effect: One sheet of paper By casting this spell, the wizard is able to draw a fairly well detailed map of the surrounding terrain onto blank paper, which is the material component for this spell. The wizard casting this spell must give total concentration to the spell for the entire 10 minutes. If the wizard loses his concentration, the partially drawn map will fade from view and the spell must be repeated. The range of this spell varies as follows: * Above the ground: 1 mile per level of the wizard. * Underground: 100 feet per level of the wizard. * Inside a structure: the wizard will get a detailed map of the floor or level he is on. However, the map will show nothing beyond the outer walls. If the floor or level is bigger than the wizard's maximum radius, then follow the underground rule. While this spell is very handy, it does have some drawbacks. Nothing on the map is labelled. Also, the map will not show people. For instance, the map will show where a town is (if it is in range) but it won't give you the name of that town and it won't tell you if there are any people in the town. In other words, this spell results in a terrain-like map. The material component for this spell is a piece of paper (or something like that) and a writing instrument of some kind. Mordenkainen's Immediate Discharge (Alteration, Metamagic, Wild Magic) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 10 yards Duration instant This spell causes the wizard to immediately discharge all spells that he currently has memorized forward in a 10 yard radius.

Obscure Trail Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: Permanent Similar to the Hide Path spell, but this spell can be cast on an area obscuring all tracks and trails within the area of effect.

Quicksilver (Alteration) Level 3 Effects immediate Area… caster Duration: Instantaneous This is basically one of those piss-off-the-fighter-subclass spells. What happens is that, suddenly, at the moment of casting, the wizard is capable of casting half his level of spell levels Reanimate Level 3 Range: Touch Duration Special Area of Effect: One deceased creature With this spell, a caster may cause the spirit of a dead humanoid to reanimate it's body, allowing it to behave as if he were alive. When reanimated, the subject has full hit points, and full access to whatever abilities were possessed before death. The caster can reanimate any humanoid who has been dead for less than one year per level of the caster. Unfortunately, the creature is still technically dead. It is cold to the touch, blood does not flow, etc. The creature has no need to eat, sleep, or drink. Because the creature is still dead, the body will begin to decompose, creating a less than pleasant odor. The greatest drawback of reanimate is that the subject is still technically dead (treat as undead of a level of the subject's hit die for turning purposes). Every day after his death, the character decomposes futher. when the bare skeleton is all that is left, the character is fully dead and cannot be resurrected by any means short of a wish, or the direct intervention of a deity.

The caster may choose the schools of magic to be affected, the sphere (if used against priest spells), which persons, objects, or spells in the area of effect, whether his own magic is affected by it or not, etc. There may be many more possibilities what can be chosen to be affected. It is even possible to say that only a single spell among several is supposed to be dispelled on one person. Self-Repair Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: Permanent Allows an item to "heal" itself when it is damaged returning the object to its whole, brand new state.

In a 10-foot radius area, shadows distort vision. The shadows help to block non-magical missile attacks.

Shape Bone Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: Permanent Using this spell, the mage can mold bone as if it were soft clay. Bones can be bent, joined together, added or altered in shape Generally this spell is used by necromancers to "cu stomize" skeletons, but healers occasionally use it to quickly knit broken bones together Silent Spell Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 1 minute While this spell is in effect, the mage doesn't need to speak words in order to cast spells (except for those that require him to speak once the spell is cast) regardless of his skill level with the other spell.

Those successfully noticing the illusion, see it become merely become translucent, it does not disappear. The illusion is incapable of making any sounds, and is completely insubstantial, even if someone touching it is unaware that it is an illusion. The illusion is capable of passing through solid objects. The wizard must carefully concentrate on the illusion (i.e., he is incapable of other actions) to use the clairaudience and clairvoyance powers, as well as keeping the appearance realistic. If the wizard breaks concentration for some reason, the illusion freezes in whatever position it was in, until the wizard resumes concentration or the spell expires Spell Absorption Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 10 seconds This spell allows the mage to catch hostile spells that are thrown at him and use their energy to power his own spells.

Spirit Legionnaire (Enchantment, Necromancy) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 10 yards Duration: Permanent Area of Effect: One mindless undead This spell creates a completely obedient undead Spirit Scream (Necromancy) Duration: Instantaneous Level 3 Effects immediate Duration instant This spell creates a low-pitched wail, much like a banshee. The wail originates at the casters mouth and extends outward in a cone, three feet long and one foot in diameter per caster level. The wail inflicts damage Staff of Light (Alteration, Evocation) Reversible Level 3 Effects immediate Duration permanent By means of this spell, the wizard creates a powerful magical weapon which only he can wield. Wizards of good alignment can create a staff of light; those of evil alignment can use the reverse of this spell to create a staff of darkness; those of neutral alignment (with respect to good and evil) can create either form of the spell, but with reduced effectiveness. The verbal component of this spell consists of but a single word, which creates in the wizard's hand a sphere of light (or darkness), a few inches in diameter; the remainder of the casting time is then spent carefully pulling and shaping this sphere into a full-sized staff. Spell duration is considered to begin on the following round, so that the wizard can make at least as many attacks as he has levels. The glowing staff of light will brightly illuminate a 30-foot radius, and when cast by a good aligned wizard this illumination will be painful to supernatural evil creatures such as undead, demons, devils, etc.. A darkness cast in the area of the staff of light will eliminate this painful effect for the duration of the darkness, but does not actually make the area dark, rather the illumination is reduced to the level of dim torchlight. Whether cast by a good or neutral wizard, the staff of light strikes as a weapon The staff of darkness sheds deep shadows in a 30-foot radius, through which only the wizard can see clearly; In addition, when cast by an evil aligned wizard, this sphere of shadow will affect supernatural creatures of good alignment If the areas of radiance and shadow of a staff of light and a staff of darkness intersect, the effects of both are negated in the overlapping region. If the staves are within 30 feet of one another, both cease to shed their light or darkness, but their powers are otherwise unaffected. Neither staff has any physical substance, and thus cannot be parried except by another staff of the opposite type If two staves of opposite type touch one another for any reason, both are destroyed in an explosion of 40-foot radius Stepping Stair (description by Mab) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: As far as the invoker can run or walk.

They have to be invited to also use the stair. Steps disappear after the last invited walker steps off of them. Area of Effect: However far a walker or runner travels. The steps have to go either up or down and can reach space, if only the person using them could survive up there. Duration: steps last as long as the invoker and those invited to follow are stepping on them. As soon as the last one steps off a step, it disappears. The steps are clear with only a faint gloss to them to even indicate they're there. The invoker must step up or down and steps will appear where he/she steps to. The invoker just needs to make motions of stepping up or down and trust in his/her magic that the steps will be there. The invited followers can only step on steps where the invoker has chosen to create them with his/her stepping, because that is the only place where the steps will remain until they traverse them. If one in line after the invoker jumps off, it doesn't adversly effect those behind, but that person has relinquished his/her invitation from the stair's invoker. The steps don't disappear until the last one in line invited to use them steps off of them and they're disappear one at a time as soon as they're stepped off of by the last one invited to use them. Follows need not stay in their order, if they can pass one another on the narrow stair except the last one invited to step on, who must remain last. If the last person stops and just sits down on a stair, those stairs could be there ahead of the last follower for a very long time. However, the invoker can, after stepping off his/her stairs onto regular ground, make the stairs disappear, if he/she chooses and then the last follower is out of luck, if he/she has chosen to stop following and remain on some step or other. They would fall if the invoker decides suddenly to remove the stairs after stepping off of them. So, make sure you trust the invoker. As soon as the invoker steps off the stairs onto solid ground, he/she can make the stairs go bye bye for anyone who has been invited to follow, right out from under them. Sting (Alteration, Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 50 yards per level Area of Effect: One magical dagger Duration permanent This spell requires a dagger. The spell causes the dagger in question to disappear and attack the victim for the duration of the spell. The dagger attacks as a fighter of a level equal to that of the wizard, including attacks per turn and so on. Sting however does negate the use of a shield, if the victim has one. A dimension door, astral spell, blink or other location blinking spell or spell-like effect will successfully avoid the sting. The wizard need not concentrate on the spell for the dagger to attack. Stone Heart Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 1 minute While this spell is in effect, the subject takes no extra damage from blows to the Vitals, Throat, Groin, Brain or other similar hit locations. Teleport Trap (Alteration) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 10 yards per level Area of Effect: 10-yard per level radius sphere All people or things teleporting into the area of effect are, upon materialising, affected as if a paralysis spell had been cast upon them. Thus, a wizard wishing to sneak into a place decides to teleport there. However, he doesn't realise that a teleport trap has been cast around the spot where he wishes to appear. Upon arriving, he must save versus spell or be paralysed. Those leaving an area under this spell will also be paralysed, wherever they appear Teleport via Fire (Alteration) Level 3 Effects immediate Duration 1 hour per level of caster This spell allows the wizard to teleport himself or others from one area of flames to another (both fires must be at least as large as a small campfire). The wizard has two options: if the terminal fire is in sight, this is a teleport without error as per the spell of the same name; if the target fire is not in sight, then the teleport is subject to the success modifiers of a normal teleport. Obviously, the location of the terminal fire must be known (via scrying or prior knowledge). If this spell is used when there is no known target fire (i.e. there is no fire in sight and none are known to the wizard) the recipients are trapped on the elemental plane of fire (note that this provides a way of entering this plane on a planned basis, but the wizard will not know the location of the teleport beforehand, unless there is prior knowledge of the location on the plane of fire). This spell will provide the recipients with a form of fire-resistance: it provides total protection for this time (but only for the two fires in question - the recipients are affected normally by other fires during this time). It takes 2 turns to prepare this spell, but once prepared, it will remain in effect for one hour per level of the wizard, or until it is used. The creatures to be affected are named at the time of preparation. 1. This spell provides a method of escaping the effects of a fireball or similar spell: if the wizard makes the proper saving throw, and is not in the midst of some other activity (i.e. casting another spell or fighting), the teleport can be triggered instantly;. Tonguetwister (Abjuration, Alteration) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 10 feet per level Duration: Instantaneous When this spell is cast on an enemy wizard, it will cause the target's tongue to twitch violently, thus disrupting any spell being cast at the moment. The victim must be in the process of casting a spell with a verbal component. If no spell is currently being cast by the target, the tonguetwister has no effect. This spell cannot affect a spell that has already been cast, nor one that is to be cast in the future. Transmute Cloth to Iron (Alteration) Reversible Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 100 yards Duration: Permanent The invention of the crafty shadow-wizard, this spell is a very effective immobilization technique. Enchanted clothing has a 20% chance per enchantment or plus to resist the spell. Cloth that has been transformed into iron is not simply woven iron - the strands are partially fused so as to be solid. The transformation is permanent unless the reverse of the spell, transmute iron to cloth, is cast. The reverse is also quite effective in neutralizing attacks, but it does so by causing metal armour and weapons to become ineffective cloth replicas. Cloth swords will become limp and floppy, cloth plate will hang in folds. Enchanted metal objects, or objects made primarily of mithril, silver, or other precious metals are not affected at all. When reversing this effect, take care that the objects in question are held in their original shape - a floppy sword that is simply reconverted while flopping will be very oddly shaped and not very useful. Multiple reconversions may fix such problems. Tsugua's Uncontrollable Hiccups (Abjuration, Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Duration 10 minutes Area of Effect: 1-foot per level radius globe This spell causes the affected creatures to hiccup uncontrollably for the duration of the spell, during which time they will be able to do little other than hiccup. Persons entering the area of effect after the spell is cast will still be affected, and leaving the area will not stop the hiccups until the spell expires. The wizard and all others in the area are affected Turn Greater Quasi-Elemental (Abjuration) Range: 30 yards Duration: 1 round per level Area of Effect: One creature This spell causes a greater radiance, lightning or mineral quasi-elemental to flee as fast as it can, for a number of rounds equal to the level of the caster. The material component for this spell is a miniature mithril shield, worth at least 50 gp. Warboulder (Alteration) Level 3 Effects immediate Area specified by caster Duration instant This creates a similar enchantment as the warstone on a single boulder(up to large catapult size). The wizard can then make this boulder hurl itself up to a distance of 10 feet per level, doing damage as if hurled by a catapult. Upon striking, the boulder shatters and inflicts damage in a 30-foot radius Warp Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: Permanent This spell causes non-living things to become bent and twisted. This will damage most items and will destroy precision items like locks, machinery or hinges. Melee weapons warped this spell can still be used, Water Fireball Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: Instantaneous This spell creates a fireball that will pass though and burn in water! It can be directed at creatures in or under water. In all other respects it is like the Fireball spell. Fires started by this spell are treated as if they were of Water Fire. Whisper's Anonymity (Divination) Level 3 Effects immediate Duration 1 hour per level of caster This spell hides the caster's persona from the world. The use of this spell will make it so that as far as magical and mental forces are concerned, your psyche, your persona, does not exist. Divination spells such as detect good, ESP, etc., will come up blank, since as far as the spells are concerned the caster is simply not there This is highly useful combined with such spells as invisibility. The spell forms a sort of shield wall around the caster but this gets weakened with every attempt to breach it Whisper's Instant Electric Shield (Evocation) Level 3 Effects immediate Area 1 ft diameter per caster level Duration 1 hour per caster level This protective spell can be cast in advance preparation. The shield itself will not spring into existence until a last command word is spoken. The speaking of this last word can be delayed as much as 1 day per caster level, and the effect then is instantaneous. A crackling and shimmering field of electricity will spring into existence around the caster, in a globe of 1 foot diameter per caster level. This shield is not solid, and missile objects have a 50% - twice the caster's level chance of penetrating the shield. All magical effects dissipate against the shield, though the after-effects could penetrate it. That is, a fireball exploding right outside the shield, will still send flames roiling into the sphere, but attempting to let the fireball explode inside the sphere will result into the dissipation of the magical energies of the fireball, rendering it harmless. Beings attempting to cross the boundary will suffer damage as if the caster cast a lightning bolt upon them, 1d6 per level. The duration of the shield itself will be one round per caster level. Only one of these spells can be held in reserve. Whisper's Instant Shielding (Abjuration) Level 3 Effects immediate Area 2 ft diameter around caster Duration one attack only This spell will create a special shield that will jump into existence whenever the caster is being attacked by some form of magic, ranging from spells to breath weapons., shielding the caster completely, like a stoneskin. The one drawback is that the shield will establish itself only once per round, and thus will protect the caster for one attack per round only. If multiple magical attacks are made against the caster, all but one will get past the shield. However, the caster can mentally decide against whose attack to use the shield, and thus not waste a "charge" on an opponent he does not deem such protection necessary against. Whisper's Reduce Magic Resistance (Alteration) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 60 feet + 20 feet per level Duration ½ hour This spell is designed to get rid of that pesky thing called magic resistance. The spell will reduce the target's magic resistance by half. The spell will only have to overcome half of the target's original magic resistance in order to function. Multiple spells can be cast on the same target for cumulative effect. I.e. after three successful such spells, the target will have only 1/8 of their magic resistance left. White Tornado Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 10 seconds When the mage casts this spell, a 12' tall swirling, cone-shaped cloud of pure white vapor is called into being. Anything in the same hex as the funnel cloud is magically cleaned, polished, disinfected, straightened, organized, painted, repaired, aired-o ut, or somehow cleaned and renewed, according to the mage's desires. The cloud can affect one hex per turn. Notably filthy or verminous creatures (such a maggots or zombies) take 1d points of damage for every turn that the cloud is in contact with them. The cloud is under the mage's mental command and it can move at a speed of up to 20 Wiley's Door (Alteration) Level 3 Effects immediate Duration instantly Causes a door to appear immediately before the wizard and a matching door up to 30 yards away. The first door appears framed by glowing blue lines 5 feet wide by 8 feet tall. The second door is invisible. Living matter up to 400 pounds or non-living up to 800 pounds may be transported from the first door to the second door (trade off one pound living for two pounds non-living). These doors provide one-way transport only. Wiley's Teleport (Alteration) Level 3 Range: 150 miles Duration: Concentration Area of Effect: The wizard + additional weight (see below) This spell allows the wizard to teleport himself and 70 pounds + 10 pounds per level of additional stuff that he is carrying to a specified destination at most 150 miles distant. The chances of error are the same as for normal teleport, except that if the wizard would normally end up is a solid object, the spell will abort. The material component is a map of the destination, which is not consumed. Wonderlight (Enchantment/Charm, Illusion) Level 3 Effects immediate Range: 240 yards Duration 1 hour This spell is designed to help heal the mind of fears, especially illusionary or phantasmal fears, and other magical ones. When cast, the creature affected by fear sees a wondrous pattern of images and lights that begin to suffuse his being, until eventually he believes himself to be some armoured hero. The effect lasts until the wizards dispels it, or until the duration expires If the affected creature moves out of the spell's range, the effects wear off and he returns to his original state of mind. Wound Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: Permanent Magically wounds the subject by causing a cut on his body. Wounds caused by this spell cause Stunning, might Bleed and must be healed like any other sort of injury. Wound Transference Level 3 Range: Touch Duration Permanent Area of Effect: 3 creatures, the wounded, the caster, and the other being This spell allows for the transference of damage from one character to the caster. This spell allows the caster to absorb damage done to another character, healing the recipient and transferring the hit points damage through caster to the other individual(at a ratio of 1:1). Wyvern Watch Level 3 Effects immediate Duration: 12 hours This spell creates an illusionary beast which will guard an area, paralyzing any intruders. When the spell is cast, the mage creates a dragon-shaped area of force Its attack does no damage Also, the beast cannot be disbelieved or struck with normal weapons, since it is actually just a mobile area of magical energy. Creatures paralyzed by the beast are frozen in place until the spell ends barring use of a counterspell. Unauthorized intruders will automatically trigger this spell, and the wyvern will materialize 1 yard away from their c urrent location on the next turn Its "senses" are very acute and it is intelligent enough to not attack subjects that it has already paralyzed.
