It's a learned discipline. One must not be heavily distracted by other things. Stats of Spell: The ability to tell that something is wrong or amiss or that something terrible has happened somewhere in the world and know it beyond a shadow of a doubt. Its ability reaches over the earth and the location of the event or happening can be pinpointed within a mile. Also a vague idea of the kind of misdeed can be determined. If the caster knows the person or people being harmed then he/she would have a sense of who is in trouble, but otherwise would only have very vague ideas of the type of people or creatures in trouble.

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.

Any creature who enters this area must flee in blind terror. Creatures affected have a 75% - 5% per level (minimum 25%) chance that they will drop whatever they are carrying. Blackadder's Mystical Forwarding Level 4 Range: 10 yards Duration: perminant Area of Effect: 100 cubic feet per level This powerful spell wards a specific area against intrusion from teleporting individuals. When cast, the spell causes a redirection of magical energies, in such a way that a teleport, dimension door, or teleport without error spell is confused as to the destination. The teleporting mage or creature is sent to one of two possible places (decided at the time of the casting of the forwarding). First, he can be sent back to his original location (where he was when the teleport was cast). The second possibility is much more devious. The intruding mage is instantly teleported to a random location, somewhere on the planet. This can be literally anywhere, on a deserted island in the middle of an ocean, atop a high mountain, in the middle of a large city, or even deep inside a cave or dungeon (although the destination cannot be a solid object). Blackadder's Mental Snare Level 4 Duration 1 day per level of caster Area of Effect: The caster This spell fends off spells which enter the mind of the protected mage. It can ward against spells such as charm, ESP, telepathy, hypnotism, forget, scare, etc., or even possessing spirits and magic jar attacks. This spell sets a trap for anyone who tries to violate the caster's mind, by attacking the invaders mind in turn. The attacker, now turned victim, suffers an attack of temporary, total amnesia. Blackthorn's Bombardment lvl 4 Range:100 yards +10 yards/ level Duration:1 rd./ 2 levels Area of Effect:10 yard radius/ level Description: This spell causes 4 balls of force per level of the caster per round to fall from the sky and explode upon contact with any object. Each ball of energy explodes with the force of 3 hand grenades. Each ball explodes doing damage in a 10 foot radius from the point of impact damaging all within the area. No ball may be placed closer than 10 feet apart. The material component is a handful of small crystal spheres, one for each sphere the caster has. Boon of Kossuth Duration: 4 minutes + 1 minute / lvl Area of Effect: Fire spells This spell functions as an augmentation of all fire based spells cast within the duration of the spell. It doubles the effectiveness of all of these spells. This includes Range, Duration, Area of Effect, and Damage. Charm Dragon (Enchantment) Level 4 Range: 60 yards Duration: 1 week Area of Effect: One dragon This spell is applicable to all dragons. It will make any dragon acceptable to what ever suggestion you make to them.. but be warned.. they will be very angry when the charm wears off.

At the spells end the earth will close up as if it had never happened. Create Throne Room (Conjuration/Summoning) Level 4 Range: 10 feet Duration: 3 hours per level Area of Effect: 1000 square feet per level This spell creates the interior of an opulent throne room. This includes one or two softly padded thrones of over 10 feet height standing on a tier made up from one step per level (each half a foot high), a large (red) carpet leading from the entrance of the room to the tier in the straightest way possible, one large chandelier per full 5 levels holding one hundred lit candles each (which burn for the duration of the spell), one large banner per level with the appropriate heraldry, two large trumpets per level, one lute per level, and one harp per 2 levels, a large court table with hammer and gavel, 10 seats (not too comfy, if desired) per level, and either one or two crowns, one or two regal apples, one or two sceptres, and one or two sets of royal clothing(furs, satin, atlas, silks, etc.). This spell creates only the interior of the room; it doesn't create the walls, floors, or ceilings. Darklight's Redstar (Evocation) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 100 yards + 20 yards per four levels Duration: Instantaneous This spell creates a red, starlike ball of energy in the wizard's outstretched hand, which darts out at the specified target as a magic missile It will dispel the spells armour, shield, wall of force, minor globe of invulnerability,. If the redstar hits such a spell, it will be weakened and only deal small damage to the (formerly) protected creature Dheryth's Sanctum Sanctorum (Abjuration) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 10 yards Duration: Permanent Area of Effect: Twenty-seven thousand cubic feet This spell seals off an interior area (eg. building, room, cave) with a volume up to 27,000 cubic feet, from entry by teleportation (including teleport, teleport without error, dimension door, and even Drawmij's instant summons and succour), plane shifting (including colour pools, border ethereal penetration, and plane shift), and similar magical effects. Any of these teleport-like effects may be performed, however, if a password is known and spoken during the attempted entrance. There can only be one password at a time, but it may be changed by recasting sanctum sanctorum. 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. Disrupt Spellcaster II (Alteration, Metamagic) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 5 yards per level Duration: 1 day per level This is an improved version of disrupt spellcaster. The only change is the increased duration. It makes the victim incapable of casting spells for the duration, one day per level of the wizard. This spell actually makes spellcasting impossible by disrupting the magical energy of memorised spells. Thus, the victim could still cast a spell from a scroll, and innate spell-like abilities are not affected. The only way to remove this spell is with a successful dispel magic. Dissolve Greater Quasi-Elemental (Abjuration) Range: 30 yards Duration: Permanent Area of Effect: One creature This spell cause a greater radiance, lightning or mineral quasi-elemental to lose its internal integrity: the lesser quasi-elemental dies. Ditan's Minor Nullify (Alteration, Necromancy) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 20 feet + 10 feet per level Duration: 1 day With the casting of this spell, the wielder calls into being a sphere of negative magic energy. This sphere is then hurled at one creature with spell casting abilitiesIf the creature hit is a wizard, the wizard forgets the spells he had memorised for the day, and cannot seem tomemorise any more for the remainder of the day. If the creature hit is a priest, they seem to have lost contact with their deity for the remainder of the day, and cannot cast prayers. The effects of this spell can only be cancelled by a limited wish, wish, or divine intervention; dispel magic is not effective against the effects of this spell. The wizard has a 10% chance of being affected by this spell as well, since Dominate Flesh/Clay Golem (Enchantment/Charm, Conjuration/Summoning) Level: 4 Range: 60 yards Duration: Permanent Area of Effect: 1 creature This spell allows the caster to arrest control of a flesh or clay golem away from the priest that created it. Dragon Form (Alteration) Level 4 Effects immediate Duration until dispelled The spell recipient takes the form of a dragon. Feather Fall Field (Alteration) Level 4 Effects immediate Duration one attack Area of Effect: 10-yard radius When this spell is cast, a magical field surrounds the wizard and moves with him. This field slows free-falling or free-flying objects as per the 1st-level feather fall, subject to a weight limit. This spell will affect all missiles, Fellstar's Flame Jet (Invocation/Evocation) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 10 yards per level Duration instant When this spell is cast, a jet of flames shoots forth from the wizard's hand; this jet is 5 feet wide and has a length of up to 10 yards per level of the wizard (the wizard may vary the length from 1 foot up to the maximum range). The jet travels in a straight line and is blocked by normal obstacles (stone, metal, etc.). If the jet is blocked, it will it will not rebound, but may flow around the barrier if it is small enough (less than 5 feet across). The flames from this spell will melt ice and ignite wood on contact; they are able to melt a hole in a wall of ice in a single round (though they will not destroy it), and can bring down a wall of fog instantly; other wall spells are not affected by this spell. If the wizard chooses, two jets (one from each hand) may be employed instead of one; if this is the case, range and damage are halved Fire Storm (Invocation/Evocation) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 10 yards per level Duration: Instantaneous Area of Effect: 60-foot radius sphere Fire storm is an expanded version of fireball. The instant after the spell is cast, a 60-foot radius sphere is filled with extremely hot flames. Flesh Box (Alteration, Necromancy) Level 4 Effects immediate Area caster only Duration: Permanent This spell enables the caster to store an item of smaller size than he inside of his body. The item remains unusable and ineffective while stored this way. Only one object can be stored at any time. Reduction in size of the body past that of the item size will kill the caster. Only the caster can remove the item. Fog of Nightmares (Illusion/Phantasm) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 10 yards per level Area of Effect: One 10x10-foot cloud, 30 feet high Duration 30 minutes This spell creates an area of heavy fog where the nightmares of the victims are given form in much the same manner as shadow monsters and phantasmal killers. The fog blocks all sight (as darkness) and infravision. It is heavy and magical; wind does not move it and fire will not burn it away. It automatically extinguishes normal fires in the area. Form Change Level: 4 To cast: A high quality gem must be crushed into a fine powder and sprinkled onto the recipient of the spell. The form they wish to assume is then spoken out. Stats of spell: Can change one creature per gem crushed into any humanoid (vaguely resembling a human but not nessecarily a human) form. It takes 3 minutes for the spell to work. It lasts for 48 hours unless countered, dispelled, or ended by the caster. Transformation back to the original form is Instantaneous Counter: Dispell spells, Countermagics, Ending the spell voluntarily Mastery: 2 and 3/4 months of constant study Form Lock Level 4 Effects immediate Duration: 1 Hour This spell will prevent Shapeshifting. It will do so even if the subject is Shapeshifting back to their original form because a previous Shapeshifting spell is no longer being maintained! The spell is resisted by the mage's skill with the Shapeshifting spell he is using (If the subject is not willing to be Form Locked, but is Form Locked all the same, then the original Shapeshift spell will resist the Form Lock spell again. Improved Fireball Range: 20 yds + 20/lvl Duration: Instantaneous Area of Effect: 50 ft radius This is simply a beefed up fireball, having a larger size, greater range, and more damage (30% more damage Improved Permanent Illusion (Illusion/Phantasm) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 20 feet per level Duration: Permanent Area of Effect: One 20-foot per side per level cube This spell works like a permanent advanced illusion with an included bonus: it starts to have touch components as well. Thus, it could be used to simulate something a character can touch in the illusion (even in disbelief) and actually feel the illusion without the illusion Indenciary Grenade Range: however far the caster can throw Duration: Instantaneous Area of Effect: 30 ft radius When this spell is cast, the wizard throws a large ball of sulfur at whatever he wants decimated, and anything caught within the blast takes light to over-moderate damage, due to the magical nature of the flame, anything caught within the blaze will also continue to burn until it is put out, spreading as a normal fire does. Objects withing the blaze do not need to be flammable to burn, they will burn as if they were wood no matter what the material, but normally non flammable objects will not be consumed, they will simply continue to burn. Insight Invocation: No special incantation. It's a learned discipline. One must not be heavily distracted by other things. Stats of Spell: The ability to tell that something is wrong or amiss or that something terrible has happened somewhere in the world and know it beyond a shadow of a doubt. It's ability reaches over the earth and the location of the event or happening can be pinpointed within a mile. Also a vague idea of the kind of misdead can be determined. If the caster knows the person or people being harmed then he/she would have a sense of who is in trouble, but otherwise would only have very vague ideas of the type of people or creatures in trouble. Special Time to Learn: 3 months Invulnerability (Abjuration) Level 4 Effects immediate Duration one attack This spell protects the wizard from all forms of weapons. The spellcaster is totally immune to non-magical weapons. Magical weapons only inflict damage equal to their plus, no strength or specialization bonuses apply. Natural weapons (claws, bite, etc.) inflict damage (with a minimum of one point). This spell offers no protection against spells or special attack forms, or even weapons created by spells Ironskin (Alteration) Level 4 Effects immediate Duration permanent This spell has a similar effect as stoneskin. It protects the recipient from the damage of weapons, whether magical or normal unless they function by touch (like a touch spell). In contrast to stoneskin, this spell does not lose its efficiency if the weapon would not have hit.. Jimmy's Ultimate Sight (Divination) Level 4 Effects immediate Duration 5 minutes Area 20 ft radius This combines wizard sight, read magic and detect magic. The wizard can detect auras of spell casters and enchanted objects normally visible to the wizard, and can detect through one foot of stone, inch of metal and yard of wood. Any visible magical writing may be deciphered. The wizard can see whether anyone is casting any spells and gain information on the spell being cast as well. For example, he could determine the potential and power of a wizard's aura, whether it is a cleric or mage (or specialist priest or wizard), school and sphere, etc. The wizard's eyes become blue and show up as magical. Kiri's Mega Magic Missile (Invocation/Evocation) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 60 yards + 10 yards per level Duration: Instantaneous In all respects, this is the same as the 1st-level magic missile, except that an unlimited number of missiles can be created and fired at multiple targets Lightning Storm (Invocation/Evocation, Conjuration/Summoning) Level: 4 Duration: 1 hour/level Area of Effect: 3 square miles per level of caster This extremely powerful spell requires no cloud cover to start but once it is started it CAN'T be controlled or stopped. When cast a massive electrical storm is created covering 3 square mile for every level of the caster. The spell causes 75 strikes per square mile and each strike does MASSIVE damage. The spell lasts for 1 hour per level. Once it is started anything that is not within a 50 yard diameter around the caster will be utterly destroyed Lizward's Dragonform (Alteration) Level 4 Effects immediate Duration until dispelled by caster This spell is a modified version of shapechange, except that it is limited to dragon-like forms only. The dragon-forms created by this spell will be perfect in all details, undetectable by other dragons, who will of course, depending on their alignment, either greet or attack the caster. Lock Shapechange Level 4 Range: 10 yards/level Duration 2 minutes / lvl Area of Effect: One creature This spell allows the mage to temporarily suspend the shapechanging abilities of one creature. For instance, if cast upon a werewolf, it would lock the creature into the form it was in when the spell was cast. It works against any creature or humanoid with shapechanging abilities, such as werewolves, dragons, dopplegangers, or magical spells (i.e. polymorph self, polymorph other, shape change, massmorph, etc.). The victim is locked into the shape or form he is in when the spell is cast. The spell is ineffective on a creature who is already in the act of changing from one form to another, but remains active, affecting the creature once it's change is complete. Magic Channel Level 4 Effects immediate Duration 1 month This spell is similar to the Arcane Connection spell. When the mage touches the target, he creates a magical link through time and space which he can use to cast spells on that target in the future. Spells which require the mage to touch the subject won't work through the magical c hannel Magic Immunity Level 4 Effects immediate Duration: 1 minute This spell makes the subject immune to the direct effects of all magical spells and prevents them from using any magic spells themselves. Like the Magic Resistance spell, this spell blocks friendly spells as well as hostile ones. While this spell will block direct attacks, it doesn't prevent against indirect attacks. For example, while a fireball attack against the subject would fizzle, attacks with a magically animated (normal) torch would have a normal chance of succeeding. This spell also will not allow the subject to pass through magically created barriers like Force Domes or Walls of Stone. The subject also can't negate the effects of area spells which don't directly affect the subject. For example, this spell would keep the subject from being harmed by the Create Fire spell or slowed by the Glue spell, but it would not keep him from being blinded by the Darkness spell since that spell works on the light entering the spell area rather than the character's perceptions. Mind Find (Divination) Level 4 Effects immediate Area of Effect: 100-foot radius sphere Duration instant This is an extremely powerful version of true seeing combined with a form of clairvoyance. Like true seeing, it allows the wizard to exactly locate people that are displaced, invisible, polymorphed, changed, enchanted, or masked by an illusion. However, the spell affects the mind, not the eyes of the wizard, so the wizard can, in addition, see through fog, around corners, trees, etc. (anything within the 100-foot radius). About the only things that will block the penetration power of the spell are non-detection, lead walls, or walls of force. The spell also confers the ability to perceive minds in any direction, including up or down. Thus, the wizard could locate the mind of someone 80 feet above him and behind him. Needless to say that backstabbing someone who knows exactly where you are is impossible. However, this spell cannot locate objects or things without minds, Nancy's Quiet Little Fireball (Alteration, Evocation) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 100 yards + 10 yards per level Area of Effect: 20-foot radius sphere Duration instant This spell creates a fireball, with the added benefit of silence within the area of effect. The silence neutralizes the explosive noise of the fireball itself, and lasts for one round after. However, after the silence is dissipated, noise returns to normal, including cries of those not killed outright by the blast. Nearthia's Combat Spell (Abjuration, Alteration, Divination) Level 4 Effects immediate Area caster Duration ½ hour This spell prepares a fighter/mage for combat. It provides the benefits of the following spells: detect invisibility, fly, minor globe of invulnerability, protection from normal missiles, shield, and strength. It also provides 25% magic resistance Orko's Elemental Triads (Evocation) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 15 yards + 10 yards per level Duration: Instantaneous When this spell is cast, three bolts of fire, electricity, frost, water, or acid shoot forth from the palm of the wizard. They may strike one, two or three targets. If more than one target is struck, the targets must be within 60 degrees of each other. Permanent Coma Level 4 Effects immediate Duration: Permanent This spell is identical to the Coma spell except that its effects are permanent and no magical means except Remove Curse can awaken the character. Unless sustained by magical or high tech means, a person in a permanent coma will quickly die. Phase Conjugation (Abjuration) Level 4 Effects immediate Area 180*arc 30 yard distance Duration instant This powerful defensive spell provides superlative protection against directed energy attacks. Any spell or effect which projects a discrete stream of energy at the recipient is deflected back in the direction from which it came. This is more than just a simple deflection, however. The spell is phase conjugated, which means it retraces its path exactly. If the recipient is within half the range of the attacking spell, the offending wizard suffers the full effect of his own spell, no saving throw allowed. The reason this is so, is that the wizard cannot possibly dodge fast enough to avoid the rebounding energies. Only magic resistance, and whatever other defenses he may have, will protect him. Examples of spells affected by phase conjugation are: * any ray-type spell, * magic missiles of any type, * lightning bolts (call lighting will not strike the wizard), and * cone of cold, heat, or force (only the recipient is protected). Examples of spells NOT affected are: * fireball, or any similar magic (they change form on impact), * touch spells, and * cone of acid or steam (they project matter, not energy). Pilpin's Ravaging Spheres of Fire (Evocation) Level 4 Effects immediate Area of Effect: One 3-foot radius sphere per level Duration variable This spell is an enhancement of the 2nd-level spell flaming sphere. The spell creates one burning globe of fire per level of the wizard. The globes all appear within 30 yards of the wizard and roll in whichever direction the wizard points, at a rate of 100 yards per round. The spheres can roll over any obstacle, even a city wall. Combustible substances are ignited by contact with a sphere. The spheres move in the direction the wizard directs, otherwise the spheres will wander aimlessly. Spheres can be extinguished by the same means as any normal fire of their size. The surface of the spheres has a spongy, yielding consistency and does not cause damage except by its flames. It cannot push unwilling creatures aside or batter down large obstacles. If the spell is unleashed on a large source of easily combustible material (such as a city of at least 50% wooden buildings or a dry forest) there is a 25% chance that a fire storm will start. A fire storm will burn out of control for many days until at least 90% of the combustibles are burned. It will also be so hot that it will melt soft metals and crack thin stone walls. Pobithakor's Placer (Alteration, Divination) Level 4 Effects immediate Duration instant This spell is similar to Pobithakor's tracer, for not only does it allow the two-way scrying, but the wizard has the additional option of pulling the scrying creature through the two-way portal right next to the wizard's current location.. Unless special measures are taken, the wizard has no control over the creature when it arrives. Read Mind (Divination) Reversible Level 4 Effects immediate Duration variable Area person touched By means of this spell, the wizard can read knowledge or memory of the victim. Only conscious knowledge and memory can be read, i.e., forget can hide information from this spell, while remember can recall information for this spell. The victim may be conscious or unconscious. . Time required depends on the information that is required, but is typically the time it would take to relate the information wanted. The reverse of this spell, mind shield (abjuration), protects the recipient from the effects of read mind for 1 day per level of the wizard Seizure (Alteration, Charm) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 10 feet + 2 feet per level Duration instant When cast, this spell (also known by its nickname super spasm) causes the victim to lose complete control over all muscles in his body for the duration of the spell. This causes the victim to "spas out": fall down and flip around like a fish out of water. There is a quirk to this spell: any creature not possessing a central nervous system is not affected by this spell. In all other aspects this spell is the same as spasm. Serrel's Modified Enchantment (Alteration) Level 4 Effects immediate Duration variable by item modified This spell does not enchant an object but merely alters the enchantment an object already possesses in such a way that those opposed to the caster gain absolutely no magical effect from the item whatsoever. There is a 90% probability that the spell works exactly as planned, but the other 10% of the time, the spell backfires, leaving the item useless to all creatures, whether friendly to the caster or not, for the spell's duration. Intelligent items cannot be altered by this casting. Shout - Word of Sound (Alteration, Evocation) Level 4 Effects immediate Duration: Instantaneous Area of Effect: 5-foot per level long, 30 degree wide arc This spell allows the wizard to shout with such intensity that a sonic field is generated, expanding in a thirty degree radius from the wizard, doing damage to all within 5 feet per level of the wizard in a 30 degree arc. Glass stands a 10% up to 50% chance of breaking depending on whether it is free standing, fragile, muffled, or sturdy, and creatures caught in the area of effect suffer deafness. Note that hard surfaces (such as stone walls) caught in the area of effect may cause the sonic field to ricochet back upon the wizard. Sillvatar's Dragon Armour (Conjuration/Summoning) Level 4 Effects immediate When this spell is cast, the wizard will be covered by a semi-real coating of dragon scales. Shroud Magic Level 4 Effects immediate Duration until the spell is triggered This spell hides the presence of magic spells and eliminates their traces. Spells protected by this spell will not register when the Detect Magic or Magic Traces spell is cast Magic users in the area have their spells shrouded so that magically aware viewers cannot detect what sort of magic (they are casting Singing Cockroach (Alteration) Level 4 Effects immediate Duration: 12 turns + 1 turn per level Area of Effect: 400 square feet per level The ultimate seige breaker... When the caster casts this spell on a roach, it works its way into the enemies camp. Once in the camp, the roach finds a nice place and starts to sing really bad. All within the camp must leave camp and go home.. Needless to say, sieges don't last long... I know it's a dumb spell, but it is the funniest thing to use in a siege or large enemy encampment. Smoke Cage (Alteration, Evocation) Level 4 Effects immediate Area as specified below Range: 10 feet per level Area of Effect: 20-foot radius This spell creates a 20-foot radius cloud of purple and black smoke up to 10 feet away per level of the wizard. The smoke is impervious to all forms of vision. The smoke cloud is actually extradimensional, employing forces similar to distance distortion. The internal diameter of the cloud is 100 to 150 feet; furthermore, the vapours contain a powerful misdirection spell which prevents those inside from wandering out.. Only a strong wind will break it up prematurely ,br /> Spellshield (Abjuration) Level 4 Effects immediate Area immediately in front of caster Duration one attack Spellshield is a very special type of spell. It consists of but a single gesture, performed with both hands as if spreading something upon the space before the caster. A curtain of light follows the movement, then remains for a moment. If he is in the middle of casting another spell at the moment he wishes to use spellshield, the other spell is broken and lost. The effects of spellshield are as follows: it will block any other magic with a directed effect which can be intercepted with the shield. In other words, a spellshield could be used to stop a lightning bolt, a magic missile, or a ray of enfeeblement. It would not stop a fireball (unless the fireball was aimed directly at the caster) or a colour spray, since these are not purely directed attacks (i.e., they don't have a line-effect). Spellshield can be declared even after the spell to be blocked goes off; in other words,: "the wizard casts a lightning bolt and strikes Syzygy...", and at this point the wizard Syzygy can say: "I'll block it with a spellshield".. The caster must see the enemy spellcaster at the moment of casting; one cannot block a magic missile from behind with a spellshield. The shield may be spread only in front of the caster, and will not intercept spells aimed at anyone besides the caster himself. Both hands must be used, and nothing may be held in either hand. Summon Shadows (Conjuration/Summoning, Necromancy) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 10 yards Duration: 1 round + 1 round per level Area of Effect: 10-foot cube When this spell is cast, the priest conjures up one shadow for every level of experience he has attained. These monsters are under the control of the spell caster and attack his enemies on command. The shadows remain until slain, turned or the spell duration expires Switch Level 4 Effects immediate Duration: 1 minute, or until one of the two spells expires. This spell allows two different spells to be "turned on" or "off" at will, allowing the mage to switch between them, or turn them both "on" or "off". While a spell is "off" its duration is "conserved" until the spell is turned back on or until the durati on of the Switch spell expires. Terror (Illusion/Phantasm) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 5 yards per level Duration: 1 round per 3 levels This is an advanced form of fear. When terror is cast, an invisible ray shoots from the wizard's hand to the target, never missing. A new ray follows each round, unless the wizard undertakes another action. The victim collapse to the ground for 6 full turns in utter terror, refusing to notice any outside presence except a physical attack The wizard can shoot forth one ray for every level he has obtained,. Only one ray can be issued per round. Undead and those creatures with protection against fear are also immune to terror. Tornado (Conjuration/Summoning) Level: 4 Duration: 4 rounds Area of Effect: 1 direction A tornado springs into being whenever this spell is cast, but in order for it to be cast there must be cloud cover. This is an extremely dangerous spell to use because once it is cast the caster has no control over the tornado at all. The caster can send it in only one direction. After that the tornado is on its own, it could follow the landscape back towards that caster. The damage that the twister causes is horrendous (think f4 tornado) and any creature that is caught up in it is thrown many yards taking additional falling damage. Transfer Spell Level 4 Effects immediate Duration: Permanent until the "base" spell ends. When cast, this magic allows an existing spell with a longer than instantaneous duration to be taken over and powered by another mage, even if he couldn't normally cast that spell. Either the mage who cast the spell or the mage who wishes to take over the spell can cast this spell Tyvek's Forceplate (Enchantment) Level 4 Effects immediate Duration: 1 day Area of Effect: One shield This spell temporarily (and rather destructively) transforms a complete suit of plate mail into a magical plate mail with one plus per 4 caster levels. The caster can "wear" this plate mail mentally, still allowing him to use his hands to cast spells: the magical plate has mass nor weight, and it does not prevent magic use. when the duration ends the plate mail vanishes forever Undead Army (Necromancy) Level 4 Effects immediate Duration 30 minutes or until destroyed Range: 360 yards This spell is a version of animate dead developed for immediate battlefield use. It animates corpses but the magic only lasts for a limited time. Also, undead army is very quick, requiring only a single word and a gesture. Those animated resemble ghouls in all ways, The ghouls created by this spell are unusually hard to turn: treat them as if they were wraiths. They cannot be commanded or disrupted (command results are ignored. Whisper's Acid Pool (Alteration) Level 4 Effects immediate Range: 60 yards + 10 yards per level Duration: 1 round per 2 levels Area of Effect: 10-yard per level square When this spell is cast, an area as specified by the caster within stated limits, will transform into a four feet deep pool of acid. Movement in this pool is reduced to 1/3. As long as creatures are in this pool they receive acid damage, dependant on exposure. At the end of the spell, the acid drains away, but the trench or pool remains a depression. For this spell to have effect, the area or volume must exist for the pool to form in. This is a great spell to stop those pesky townspeople from following you in pursuit after you burned down half their city in some sorcerous fight. Edited 4:48pm, July 19, 2005 by Axis, moderative.
