:Elven_Shaman_Tradition

     The Elves, being elder folk, have their own Shamanic Tradition.
This is primarily taught only to High Elves and 1/2 Elves, though
an occasional Dark Elf, Gypsy or human may gain the skills in life.

     Elves have Totem Trees to which they are bound to protect. If
they are a token mage their tokens should be crafted from the dropped
(not cut!) wood of such a tree. The elves believe that the trees are
representations of the influence of their gods and goddesses upon the
Earth, and that thru a tree their divine influence may flow thru to
their shamans and people.

     Elves believe that a shaman must act to preserve the trees and
the plantlife of the world in general. They oppose things that pollute
in general but do not oppose true hunters and craftsmen that share
their wooded lands. They do not oppose violent action if it is needed,
but do not believe in senseless violence. They do not believe in the
land rights that humans claim and travel freely where they would.

     Because they are so few in number, Elves will avoid killing their
kin even to the point of letting non-Elves die instead. They also will
avoid imprisonment at all costs and would rather die fighting or fleeing
then be jailed or otherwise imprisoned by non-elves.

     On the lighter side Elves enjoy music, dance, sex, gambling,
good food and good drink, but avoid excesses of any. They will even
venture into cities for short time to find companionship, pleasure
and divulgences.

     Elves do not hate man for what he is, and hope that they may one
day live together peacefully without destroying all the Elves hold dear
in the world. They will act covertly and even violently as needed, but
try to remain hidden among mankind as much as possible since they are
badly outnumbered.

     The Elves have a connectiveness with the Fae, but are not Fae
themselves. There is some level of racial friction between the High
Elves and the Drow, and some elitism regarding their half-human
offspring, but no more than between the various races of man.

:Accurate_Arrow

    COST   : 4
    MODS   : D,R

     When cast, Accurate Arrow minorly creates one missile
weapon (i.e. sling stone, arrow, quarrel, etc.) to automatically hit
any target normally within the range.  Effective with "called
shots", and situations of that nature.  The missile's enchantment does
normal damage as it were an unaided hit of the same nature.  The
enchantment instantly wears off upon the arrival at the missile's
destination, even if the spell duration is not yet ended. Missile
cannot be aimed for a particular body part. There is no saving throw
from the attack.

  Additional Ranks add +1 to the damage and make the missile count as
a magic weapon.

:Affect_Normal_Fires

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R

   This spell enables the wizard to cause non-magical fires--from
a torch or lantern to as large as a 10' radius to reduce in size and
brightness to become mere coals or increase in light to become as
full daylight and increase the illumination to double the normal radius.
This does not affect either fuel consumption or damage caused by the
fire.  The caster can affect any or all fires in the spell's area.  He
can alter their intensities with a gesture as long as the spell is in
effect.  The spell lasts until the caster cancels it, all fuel is burned,
or the duration ends.  The caster can also extinguish all flames in the
area, which expends the spell immediately. The spell does not affect
fire elementals or similar creatures.

:Age_Alcohol

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : R

This spell magically ages Alcohol. The standard durations are not used
for this spell. Each point put into Duration adds 6 months to the age
(and thus fermentation level). Upto 1 gallon can be aged per RANK of
this spell.

:Animal_Enmity

   COST    : 3
   MODS    : D,R

This spell simply causes the victim to be offensive to animals for the
duration. Horses will shy or buck, dogs will bark, bulls will
charge, birds will aim at them, etc. Note that animals with a close
association to the victim won't do anything to hurt the victim, they'll
just treat him or her like you would treat a friend who, for some
reason, smelled horrible.

:Animal_Possession

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R

This spell allows a mage to possess the body of any animal intelligence
creature, and control it thusly. The Mages own body slips into a deep
sleep while inhabiting this creature mentally. The Mage controls ALL
the actions of that body and will feel ALL and see and HEAR what the
creature normally would. If the creature is harmed or killed while the
mage so controls it the mage will awake to find their body has suffered
HTK damage internally equal to that done to the creature. A mage whoose
body is slain while they are so possessing a creature becomes trapped
mentally within it.

Mages so possessing a creature can cast from the body, using their stored
pool of energy and may even gain energy thru the link in some
circumstances. The mage may severe the Possession at will, snapping
back to their own if it still exists. If a mage is trapped in a body
after the death of his own then the duration of the spell no longer will
apply.

:Animal_Tracks

   COST   : 1
   MODS   : D,R,T

This spell causes the caster to leave tracks & scents as as the animal
specified during casting.  The tracks have traces of magic for 3 hours
per RANK after which they are indistinguishable from normal tracks.

:Animate_Wooden_Object

    COST   : 7
    MODS   : D,R,T

By means of this spell an inanimate object becomes animate and under
the command of the caster. The object will move at about 5' per round
unless it is something designed for movement (ex: A wagon, wheelbarrow
etc). Objects animated in this way cannot fight, but may block an attack
by interceding. They are imbued only with enough intelligence to obey
the instruction by the caster (ex: an animated broom can sweep the
floor, but knows nothing about making tea). One of the common ways of
using this is to cast it on a scarecrow or other such humanoid appearing
form so that a wider range of commands are possible. The animated beings
cannot perform a task that the caster has no knowledge of or cannot
perform themselves - ex: an animated mannequin instructed to make dinner
by the caster could cook no better than the person that created it.
They cannot hold or manipulate magical energy in any way.

The object MUST be a maximum of 5 lbs/rank and at least 50% made of
wood. If made of the caster's totem tree's wood then it can be
10 lbs/rank.

:Anvil Fall

    COST   :  2
    MODS   :  D,R,T

     When this spell is cast, the creature(s) or object(s) affected
immediately assume the mass of solid lead.  A falling or flying object
or creature affected starts to plummet, and damage taken from falling
is doubled, i.e., 2d10 per 10 feet fallen, to a maximum of 20d10 from
a height of 100 feet.  The anvil fall affects one or more objects
in a 10-foot cube, or one creature, as long as the maximum original
weight of the creatures or objects does not exceed a combined total of
200 pounds per rank bought of the spell.

     A feather fall cast upon a creature or object under the influence
of an anvil fall will only negate the latter, and the creature then
receives only normal falling damage.  An additional feather fall would
then be needed to achieve the normal effect of that spell, and two
such spells could probably not be cast in time by a single caster.

     Like a feather fall, an anvil fall works only upon free-falling,
flying, or propelled objects, and cannot affect a sword blow or a
charging creature.

:Apprentice_Link

    COST   : 30
    MODS   : N

  This spell is used to link a spellcaster with an apprentice or
trusted companion or follower over a long period of time. It creates
a linking so that they can speak (as under a Mind_Speech* spell), and
so they can transfer energy at will (The CASTER of the Apprenticeship
spell controls the flow and can take energy from the apprentice at
will or bestow such to them at will) over any distance. The spell
effects work THRU a Pentagram unhindered as well, despite its lack
of ranks. The caster can also cast Spells upon the Apprentice at any
time despite the distance as if they were in TOUCH range.

   This spell cannot be cast on an unwilling target.

Unlike a normal Spell, the duration on this one is always exactly one
year and a day.

:Arrow_Of_Smiting

    COST   : 15
    MODS   : D

This spell is considered the most dangerous of the Arrow based spells.
Cast on a single arrow it make it capable of also acting as a critical
hit if it strikes target. The effect lasts until the arrow has been
used, thus duration is not used.

Each additional RANK allows another arrow to be included in the effect.

:Assasin's_Invisibility

      COST  : 25
      MODS  : D,R,T

   This is complete invisibility to sight, infravision, sound and
scent. The subject CANNOT create intentional sounds while it is
in effect.

:Audible_Glamour

    COST  : 1
    MODS  : D,R

   When the audible glamour spell is cast, the wizard causes a volume of
sound to arise, and seem to recede, approach, or remain a fixed place as
desired.  The volume of sound created, however, is directly related to
the rank of the spell.  The volume is that of four men, maximum.

Thus, talking, singing, shouting, walking, marching, or running sounds
can be created.  The auditory illusion created by the spell can be
virtually any type of sound, but relative volume must be commensurate.

A horde of rats running and squeaking is about is about the same as
eight men running and shouting. A roaring lion is equal to 16 men, while
a roaring dragon is equal to the noise volume of no fewer than 24 men.

:Awaken

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : R,T

     This spell will wake a character (or characters) to full
alertness instantaneously.  It can be set to trigger on a specific
action such as a word or action.  The primary component is a horn
(which can be reused).  Each being that may be awakened must be named
in the spell when cast.

:Barkskin

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R,T

This spell toughens the skin like bark, making it absorb 5 points of
damage per RANK, upto a maximum of 4 ranks. The protection is applied
AFTER normal armor absorption, and does not protect the subjects
clothing. It cannot be combined with metal armour.

:Beauty

    COST   : 3
    MODS   : D,R

This spell is cast upon a being of sentience only. It enhanced their
Appearance magically for the duration by 10 points. It is often used
by Female Mages to enhance their natural 'talents'.

Unlike 'Friends' it does NOT directly influence others and thus has
no detrimental effects, or concepts of deception.

Additional RANKS add 1 to the gained points.

:Bigby's_Groping_Fingers

   COST   : 1
   MODS   : D,R,T

This spell allows the caster "grope" his/her target. This spell is
usually used by mischievous apprentices in bars and such... have fun!
RANGE is vital to make this spell useful!

:Bigby's_Interposing_Hand

   COST   : 5
   MODS   : D

This creates a HUGE-sized magic hand which appears between the caster
and an opponent. This disembodied hand then remain between the two,
regardless of what the spellcaster does or how the opponent tries to get
around it. The hand is about the size of the caster. It may be harmed
by spells and normal weapons, but can absorb all damage until it hits its
limit, which is 100 points per RANK of the spell.

:Binding_Aura

   COST   : 25
   MODS   : R

   This spell is cast AFTER another spell or enchantment has been
performed, it prevents the previous spell(s) from being dispelled by
Magical Dispells. If this is cast on a destructive effect, or one
that the target would be opposed to they DO receive a saving throw
against the Binding. It does NOT extend the duration of the effect.

:Boneset

       COST   : 5
       MODS   : R,T

    Cast on broken bone or multiple broken bones, this will place the
bones into proper place to begin to heal. In the process it does 1d10
of repair to the damage mending the break. It does NOT close open
wounds, cure infections or repair organ damage.

:Brand's_Elixir

      COST   : 5
      MODS   : R

This spell converts water or any alcoholic drink, upto 1 quart, into a
magical healing Elixir temporarily. The Elixir will only work if
used within the duration of the spell - after that it returns to its
normal state. Each dose (1 Cup, 4 cups to a quart) will heal upto 2
points of damage, no matter the source, when drank or applied to an
open wound. The healing is final, the potion of course can expire.
Additional RANKS add +1 to the healing effect of a dose.

:Breeze_Call

     COST   : 5
     MODS   : D,R

Causes a swirling breeze to arise from around the person of the
caster which will blow in a set direction. It drives away gases
and minuses 5% from chances to hit by missile weapons while active.
Range is how far out from the cast that the breeze's effects will occur.

:Broomstick_Enchantments

     COST   : 25
     MODS   : D

This spell is cast upon an ordinary broomstick and causes it to become
capable of performing several functions upon the need of the caster:

     First it can animate the broom to sweep an area clean of debris
for the duration of the spell. This is its simplest function.

     Second the broomstick can be ordered to act as a servant, and it
will sprout small arms with 3 fingered hands that can manipulate objects
and animate and move about fetching or carrying for the caster at any
task it is order to do. (Shades of Mickey Mouse here)

     Third it can be made to levitate and to take flight, moving at a
speed twice that of a running man, while ridden (it can carry about 200
lbs total weight) and at command of the rider. This is its most complex
function.

:Bubbles_Of_Euphoria

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : D,R

   This spell summons or generates some giant 'soap bubbles' that will
float around the area where they were ranged to. Those within the area
must save vs prowness each round of the effect to avoid touching and
bursting one of the bubbles. If they fail and touch one it bursts,
and releases a strange gas effect on them - because of its nature it
WILL bypass a minor globe of invulnerability and it will work on a being
with magic resistance. The gas causes a feeling of Euphoria in the
being, which will make them smile and laugh at foolish things. This will
distract mages who are spellcasting, even those with IRONMIND spells
active, reducing their chance to cast by 25%, and it will reduce any
resistances to sleep, charm or non-damaging spells by this same amount.
The effect of the Euphoria lasts for the duration.

   Area of effect is a 20' radius from the range point, and the caster
CAN be affected by their own spell in this case if they cast it in too
confined an area! Each additional rank adds 10' to the radius.

:Calm_Animals

      COST   : 5
      MODS   : D,R

   This causes animals in a radius out to the range of the spell, to be
calmed and placid. This can stop a stampede, prevent an attack or simply
prevent easily startled or 'watch' animals from reacting to the
presence of the caster and/or others in the area for the duration.
This area of calm moves with the caster, and animals outside the area
will return to normal reactions.

   Multiple TARGETS are not used as an option on this spell since it
is an area affect.

:Camouflage

       COST   : 7
       MODS   : D,R,T

   The caster (or target being) while this is under effect, becomes
invisible in natural surroundings such as a forest, Field, Snow covered
mountains, Ice plain or Desert. They can move without leaving a physical
trackable trail, but CAN be heard on occasion and become visible if they
make an attack against someone. While Camouflaged in this way they are
+10% prowness defensively per rank and will have surprise when making
an attack (but cannot return to invisibility after an attack until all
opponents are out of sight range). (Infravision or tracking scent reduce
the modifier down to a 1/2 above while camouflaged).

:Change_Staff

     COST   : 30
     MODS   : D,R

This transforms a wooden staff into a full sized Treant that is totally
obedient to the caster. It starts with 96 HTK , Armour ABS 10 (Not counted
vs FIRE) and can attack with its branches to grapple, hold, and bash (bash
does 3d10 dmg) Attack skill 85%. It moves at half the speed of a man
running. It lasts till destroyed, dispelled or the duration ends.

The staff must be of wood from their totem tree type.

:Chime

   COST   : 3
   MODS   : D

     This spell enchants an object such that, when a condition is met
a reasonably loud chime/bong/ring will sound from the item. This chime
is loud enough to wake a nearby sleeper or be heard from a nearby room.
This behavior will continue functioning for the duration.

:Chromatic_Orb

   COST   : 10
   MODS   : D

Causes a sphere to appear in the casters hands of one of a variety of
colors, which when thrown at a target will inflict different kinds of
effects on said target if it hits (caster must throw the orb with a
chance of hitting equal to their PROW * 2 + 10% per RANK of the Spell
with a 60' range. The orb on hitting does 1d10+2 plus 2 points per
RANK the spell is know at, but the effective damage type varies based
on the color of the sphere. A caster can create ANY color orb upto
that of their rank in knowing the spell:

   RANK    COLOR      TYPE OF DAMAGE
   ----    -----      --------------
    1      White      Bright Flash of Light which Blinds for 1 Rnd as well
    2      Red        Does Heat Damage which reduces Prow Skills/saves by
                      5 for one round.
    3      Orange     Does Fire damage and ignites combustables with 5'
                      of the target.
    4      Yellow     Light Blinds the target for the duration.
                      This does not blind undead but triples its damage.
    5      Green      Creates a Stinking Cloud as well as doing the
                      listed damage from noxious gases (does not affect
                      unbreathing targets), and all with 5' are affected
                      by the stink affect (but not the damage). Lasts
                      for the duration. Anyone within the effect gets a
                      HARD save to escape the area of effect.
    6      Turquoise  This magnetizes all iron and steel on the subject
                      to become magnetized and to stick to all metals
                      of an attractable nature within 5' for the duration.
    7      Blue       This also paralyzes the target for the duration.
                      (victim does get a save vs HARD from the effect
                      will half the duration)
    8      Violet     The victim takes no damage, but if they fail a save
                      vs INT they are turned to stone for the duration. If
                      they save then they are slowed for the duration (only
                      gets the last action in each round). Quicklings and
                      other hasted/fast creatures are reduced to normal
                      speeds and initiative rolls and only one action each
                      round for the duration.
    9      Ebon       If the victim fails a save vs INT then they die
                      instantly from a complete neural disruption, else
                      if they do save then they are paralyzed for the
                      duration. It does NOT do normal damage.

   If the orb misses its intended target it vanishes. If its intended
target makes an INT save then the orb does NOTHING on striking them.
Duration is only used for the effects that need duration as described
above.

:Cleanse_Lungs

   COST   : 10
   MODS   : R

This is cast upon a living being. It will remove any cancerous growths
and recently received poisonous gas damage (recent being with past
hour) that the subjects lungs have suffered. It will also empty lungs
filled with water to prevent drowning, or fluids, as in pneumonia (but
does NOT cure disease! In the case of cancer it simply puts it in
temporary remission).

:Create_Campsite

   COST   : 15
   MODS   :  N

   With this spell the caster generates a squadron of tiny invisible
servants who create a campsite for the caster and his/her companions.
The caster stands in the desired area for the campsite (a 60' radius
area maximum per RANK) and the number of individuals the site is to
accommodate.

   The servants clear the area of debris, set up tents if present, set
up bedrolls, start a campfire, fetch water if available, tether horses
and mules, and dig a nearby latrine. The campsite will be so skillfully
prepared as to be only noticeable 50% of the time from outside of it due
to the blending with the surrounding terrain.

   The entire process takes about 10 rounds to be accomplished.

   The servants use the gear available to them and any improvised gear
they can create from the working area - if no tents exist they will
create lean-to's of branches and leaves and grass if available.

   These servants cannot fight for the party, deliver messages, or take
any other actions other than creating the campsite.

   The spell CAN be cast in reverse easily, as a BREAK CAMP, which makes
servants to strike a campsite and repack the gear, extinguish the fire,
and return the site to its original state as much as possible.

:Create_Spring

     COST   : 5
     MODS   : D

This spell is cast upon natural rock or earth and causes a spring of
fresh water to bubble forth from it, putting out about one gallon of
water per hour. It is a great means of bringing water to a desert,
irrigating crops etc.

:Cure_Disease

   COST   : 15
   MODS   : D,R,T

This will eliminate most normal and magical diseases and infections and
their symptoms from a living body. It does not cure poisons or produce
other effects. If duration is bought it acts as a protection from future
infections of any disease for the duration. It fails against Cancer
and HIV+ based diseases.

:Cure_Frostbite

   COST   : 1
   MODS   : R,T

This heals Frostbite damage from Cold based attacks. It heals 1d10.
It does not heal other forms of damage. If multiple ranks are
possessed of this spell it adds +1 of effect for each rank.

:Dancing_Lights

     COST   : 3
     MODS   : D,R,T

This causes 1d10 of small glowing lights to appear that resemble
candles and produce that amount of light that move as the caster
desires. The spell winks out if they are moved beyond the range.
If targeted they can be made to follow around a target being to provide
light, so long as within range. Additional Ranks add 1 additional light
to the rolled amount.

:Detect_Charm

   COST   : 5
   MODS   : R

This spell will reveal whether or not a recipient is under the effect
of a charm spell.

:Detect_Disease

     COST   : 1
     MODS   : R

   Detect disease reveals to the wizard whether a subject creature
or object carries a disease, whether normal or magical, and with a
successful Intuition roll can identify the exact disease.

:Detect_Fae

     COST    : 3
     MODS    : D

This allows the caster to recognize on LOS any Fae-Folks. It will also
allow the caster to see thru Fae-FOlk invisibility powers (not spells)
as if they were not there.

:Detect_Illusions

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D

   Allows the caster to see thru ALL Illusions encountered while the
spell duration is in effect, wether caused by magical spell or magic
abilities of specific creatures.

:Detect_Life

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : R

By use of this spell the caster can determine if a creature is alive,
including creatures in a coma, trance, little death etc. It fails
against Mind Shielded targets (they will detect as dead) and will
also expose Undead for what they are.

:Detect_Lie

    COST   : 7
    MODS   : D,T

   This allows the caster to perceive any SPOKEN lies said in their
presence if they understand the language being spoken. Range is not
necessary as an element in this spell. Target is only needed if casting
the spell on someone else. It does not detect omissions, only falsehoods.

:Detect_Magic

   COST   : 1
   MODS   : R

This spell causes all magic on the target being/object to be shown
in that it will glow with the color of its Guild type(s). Duration
is not needed to be purchased, and it is cast at the suspect target.

:Detect_Shapechanger

      COST   : 5
      MODS   : D

This allows the caster to detect any natural or magically held
shapechanges on persons and creatures in LOS.

At Rank 3 it allows the caster to know the true appearance of the
beings that are shapechanged.

:Dimensional_Depth

   COST   : 10
   MODS   : D

This spell is cast on a container, a pocket, purse, sack, Pouch,
Suitcase, Chest, trunk, crate, etc. What it does is expand the interior
dimensions of the container into another pocket dimension, approximately
5'x 5' x 5' per RANK of the spell. Objects placed inside are held in
stasis, unaging, while within the container. It is a spell often used by
mages needing more space then they have available (objects within have
no weight perceived in the outside world) or by thieves. You cannot
place a living creature or being within the space as a prolonged stay
of more than a round would result in death.
   At Third Rank this spell becomes impossible to DISPELL before its
duration ends.

:Dispel_Illusion

   COST   : 3
   MODS   : R

This will cancel ANY illusionary effect instantly and finally.

:Dispel_Magic

   COST   : 3
   MODS   : D,R

This will cancel a specific ongoing spell effect. If cast on an ITEM it
will prevent the items magic from functioning for the duration of the
spell being canceled, but then the item will turn back on until its
duration is up. It will NOT send away a summoned creature, undo a
healing spell or cause harm to a magical creature directly. Unwilling
targets get a Save vs INT against Dispel

:Dispelling_Curtain

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : D,R

This spell is used to set up a shimmering violet energy screen in a
curtain form that the caster desires (Can be a maximum of 10' x 10'
per RANK of the spell, but NO lower limit). Any creature passing thru
it will have active spells on them affected by a Dispell Magic that is
slightly more powerful than an ordinary one - this one CAN affect the
results of spell klutzs 50% of the time, and CAN shut down any Globe of
Invulnerability or Globe of Minor Invulnerability, but cannot shut off
curse affects or any spell that was at rank 5 or greater.

The Dispelling Curtain will NOT work against items, only beings.

:Dispel_Silence

    COST   : 2
    MODS   : D,R

When cast, this spell automatically dispels any magical silence within
its area of effect. Furthermore, no silence spell will have effect
within the area of effect for the duration of the spell.

Area is a 15' Globe at the target point. This can be increased by buying
more RANKS of the spell.

Stealth FAILS inside a Dispell Silence Field.

:Distance_Distortion

      COST  : 15
      MODS  : D,R

   This can be cast on any area completely surrounded or enclosed
by earth, rock, sand, water, snow, mud or tall vegitation (Tall
grass, corn, trees, shrubs etc). It doubles or halves the area's
dimensions for those traveling on it. Thus a 10' x 100' corridor
could seem to be either 5' wide and 50' long or 20' wide and 200'
long.

    The true nature of the area affected is undetected to travellers,
but it will detect as magic and can be dispelled by a Dispell Magic or
Dispell Illusion of equal or greater rank.

    Additional ranks let the caster manipulate it so only one
dimension is affected at rank two on (Thus the above corridor could
look 10' x 200' long or 10' x 50' long as well). They also enhance
the effect - triple it at rank 3, quadruple at rank 4 etc.

    There is NO SAVES for the effect and True Sight does NOT see
thru the effect.

:Electric_Arrow

     COST   : 3
     MODS   : N

This spell is cast only on an arrow or bolt, giving it a special effect
if it strikes its target. It cannot be cast in combination with ANY of
the other arrow modifying spells.

The arrow does normal damage PLUS 1d10 of electrical damage on striking
its target. Duration is NOT used on this spell - it lasts until the arrow
is fired and hits something (intended target or not).

Additional RANKS cannot be bought of this spell.

:Elemental_Burst_Of_Wood

        COST   : 3
        MODS   : R

This causes a wooden object to suddenly explode in a spray of splinters,
doing 1d10 + 2 + RANK in damage to all within 5' of the object. It will
only work on objects less than 20 lbs in weight. Armour IS applied
against this non-magical damage.

:Elf_Call

        COST   : 7
        MODS   : N

This effect allows an Elven Shaman to send forth a call to all Elves
within a 1 mile radius/rank. The Elves will know that one of their
Kin is in need (this is NOT a spell used lightly), and have an
impression in their mind where and how to get to them. It is the
tradition of the People's for one and all to come who hears the call.
They will also get an impression of the Elf who is sending forth the
call and of the shaman is at least Rank 3 with the spell an impression
of the nature of the need (usually this is used in life threatening
situations).

:Elf_Life_Link

    COST   : 30
    MODS   : N

  This spell is used to link a spellcaster with a Trusted companion,
blood relative or bedmate. It creates a linking so that they can
speak (as under a Mind_Speech* spell), and so they can transfer energy
at will (both controls the flow and can take energy at will or bestow
such to them at will) over any distance. They can perceive the others
general health condition (HTK vs Wounds) and Energy Level. The spell
effects work THRU a Pentagram unhindered as well, despite its lack
of ranks. They can also cast Spells upon each other at any time
despite the distance as if they were in TOUCH range.

   This spell cannot be cast on an unwilling target.

Unlike a normal Spell, the duration on this one is for the life of the
receipients, so it is NEVER cast without huge amounts of caution.

:Empathic_Revenge

    COST   : 15
    MODS   : D

When the target this spell is cast upon is attacked in any way the
attacker receives back half damage (only HTK damage applies) as that
the target had received from them AFTER armour etc, as internal damage.

:Enlarge/Reduce

   COST   : 15
   MODS   : D,R

   This spell causes instant growth of a creature or object, increasing
size and weight.  It can be cast only upon a single creature or upon a
single object that does not exceed ten cubic feet in volume per caster
level.  The object or creature must be seen to be affected.  It grows by
up to 10% per rank of the spell, increasing this amount in height, width,
and weight.

   All equipment worn or carried by a creature is enlarged by the spell.
Unwilling victims are entitled to a saving throw vs. spell.  A successful
saving throw means the spell fails.  If insufficient room is available
for desired growth, the creature or object attains the maximum possible
size, bursting weak enclosures in the process, but it is constrained
without harm by stronger materials--the spell cannot be used to crush a
creature by growth.

   Magical properties are not increased by this spell--a huge sword +1
is still only +1, a staff-sized wand is still only capable of its normal
functions, a giant-sized potion merely requires a greater fluid intake
to make its magical effects operate, etc.  Weight, mass, and strength
are affected.  Thus, a table blocking a door would be heavier and more
effective, a hurled stone would have more mass (and cause more damage),
chains would be more massive, doors thicker, a thin line turned to a
sizeable, longer rope, and so on.

   The reverse spell, reduce, negates the enlarge spell or makes
creatures or objects smaller.  The creature or object loses 10% of its
original size for every rank of the spell, to a minimum of 10% of the
original size. Thereafter, the size shrinks by one foot increments to
less than a foot, by one-inch increments to one inch, and by 1/10
increments to 1/10 of an inch--the recipient cannot dwindle away to
nothingness.

:Extinguish_Fire

    COST    : 1
    MODS    : R

This will extinguish any fire within range radius.

:Feather_Fall

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R

When this spell is cast, the target(s) affected immediately
assumes the mass of a piece of down.  Rate of falling is instantly
changed to a mere two feet per second (120 feet per round), and no
damage is incurred upon landing while in effect.  When the spell duration
ceases, normal rate of fall occurs.  The feather fall affects one or more
objects or creatures in a 10-foot cube per rank.

:Fertility

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R

   This spell will bring a subject being into peak fertility, and will
override all known herbs, magics and medicinal means to block fertility
(but not Barrier-form prophylactics) allowing conception to take place
if a mating occurs within the duration of the spell.

:Find_Animals

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : N

This spell allows the caster to state a particular kind of animal for
the spell to set him into the right direction to find and an estimated
distance to the nearest such creature at the time of casting. For
example to find a Dog, a cat or a horse are all viable. The range that
the spell can pick creatures within is a mile per RANK of the spell.

:Find_Fae_Gate

   COST   : 15
   MODS   : D,R

This makes the caster sensitive to the weaknesses between the Earth
and the Lands of the Fae, so that those passages between the two lie
hidden. It allows the finding of such a spot within the radius of
effect while active, if they exist.

Note that not all Fae gates are stable constructs, some shift about
based on the season or the year while others might exist but for a
single day.

:Find_Familiar

   COST   : 5
   MODS   : N

   This spell enables the caster to summon a familiar to act as his
aide and companion.  Familiars are typically small creatures, such as
cats, frogs, ferrets, crows, hawks, snakes, owls, ravens, toads, weasels,
or even mice.  A creature acting as a familiar can benefit a wizard,
conveying its sensory powers to its master, conversing with him, and
serving as a guard/scout/spy as well.  A wizard can have only one at a
time, and he has no control over what sort of creature answers the
summoning, if any at all come.

   The creature is always magically intelligent and its bond with the
wizard confers upon it an exceptionally long life.  The wizard receives
the heightened senses of the familiar, which grants the wizard a bonus
to all surprise die rolls.

   The wizard has an empathic link with the familiar and can issue mental
commands at a distance of up to one mile.  Note that responses from
the familiar are fairly basic--which able to communicate simple thoughts,
these are often overwhelmed by instinctual responses.  Thus a ferret
spying on a band of orcs might lose its train of thought upon
sighting a mouse.  Certainly its communications to its master would be
tinged with fear of the "big ones" it was spying on!  The caster can see
through the familiar's eyes.

   When the familiar is in physical contact with the wizard, it gets the
wizards saving throws against special attacks.

   If the familiar dies, the wizard must successfully roll an immediate
Hardiness check. If the familiar is an animal type then they lose 1 HTK
in damage from the loss.

   The mage is able to state One qualification for a familiar, in
general terms, like 'Flight' or 'Keen Eyesight' or 'Strong' or 'Fast'.
The GM modifies the roll to the creature that best fits the qualifier
(up or down the chart from the actual roll).

   Deliberate mistreatment, failure to feed and care for the familiar, or
continuous unreasonable demands have adverse effects on the familiars
relationship with its master.  Purposely arranging the death of one's own
familiar incurs great disfavor from certain powerful entities, with dire
results.

:Find_Plant

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : N

This spell allows the caster to state a particular kind of plant for
the spell to set him into the right direction to find and an estimated
distance to the nearest such creature at the time of casting. For
example to find Oak Trees, Basil, or strawberries are all viable. The
range that the spell can pick creatures within is a mile per RANK of
the spell.

:Find_Water

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R

When casting this spell, to reduce costs, a tool is often used,
the diviner grasps two ends of a Y-shaped stick. The remaining end
twists around to point in the direction of the nearest source of fresh
water within the spell range. The branch can twist but twenty degrees,
and then the diviner will feel a tug in the direction of the water.
The diviner can specify a minimum amount of water to seek (greater than
the amount in a human body, for example).

:Flaming_Arrow

     COST   : 3
     MODS   : N

This spell is cast only on an arrow or bolt, duration is NOT used in the
casting as the effect doesn't occur until the arrow is launched and then
strikes a target. The arrow on striking does 1d10 additional fire damage
over its original to the target. Additional RANKS adds 1d10 to the damage
it does. Leather and Magical armour protects against the fire damage,
normal metal armour does not. Shield Usage against it does apply.

:Flash

    COST   : 2
    MODS   : D,R,T

Victims failing their saving throw are blinded due to a flash of light
that appears in their eyes. (Save is vs INT). Targets chosen on this
spell do NOT have to be next to each other.

   Unless skilled at Blind Fighting they will be considered to be at
prowness 1 for all actions for the duration.

:Flavor_Food_&_Drink

   COST   : 1
   MODS   : R

This allows the caster to change the flavor of any food or drinking
substance, so that it may be more or less edible to those to consume it.
The flavoring can be as simple as the addition of a single spice to the
taste (ex: pepper) or as complex as a major change (Milk that tastes
chocolate, Beer that tastes like buttermilk, Wine that tastes like
blood). The effect does NOT change the nature of the Food or drink,
merely the flavor, so this spell cannot be used to smoke fresh fish or
to salt it (but can make such TASTE as such).

The taste effect becomes permanent unless countered by another casting
of the spell to change it again.

:Flesh_To_Wood

   COST   : 25
   MODS   : D,R

Target being gets a roll vs INTUITION and if failed is instantly turned
to wood for the duration of the spell. A wooden being is unable to
move, act or think faster then 1 action every hour. If damaged or
destroyed in this state it will reflect on them when they return to
normal at spells end.

:Fog_Vision

   COST   : 1
   MODS   : D

   Allows the caster to see clearly thru any smoke or fog as if
it wasn't there so it has no obscurement value.

:Free_Action

      COST   : 5
      MODS   : D,R

This spell enables the target to move and attack and otherwise act
normally for the duration of the spell, negating effects like Paralysis,
little death, hold person, web, hog tie and similar binding effects.

:Friends

   COST   : 3
   MODS   : D

   A friends spell causes the wizard to temporarily gain 2d10 points of
Appearance. Intelligent creatures around the caster and meeting him/her
must make immediate reaction checks based on the character's new
Appearance.  Those with favorable reactions tend to be very impressed
with the spellcaster and make an effort to be his friends and help him,
as appropriate to the situation.  Officious bureaucrats might decide to
become helpful; surely gate guards might wax informative; attacking orcs
might spare the caster's life, taking him captive instead.  When the
spell wears off, the creatures realize that they have been influenced,
and their reactions are determined by the GM.

:Glow

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R

   This spell causes the object or person affected to emit an eerie
glow.  The color ranges from blue to green.  It cannot be dispelled
but it can be negated by a darkness spell. The glow is not bright
enough to read with but is easy to spot in the dark.  The material
component is a silver firefly figurine. If cast on an invisibility

:Green_Tongued_Curse

   COST   : 20
   MODS   : R

This spell can ONLY be cast on a non-Elf Kin. It is designed to
teach a despoiler a lesson by linking them within the food chain
of the plants of the world. It makes the being a forced vegetarian.
Meat and meat by-products will taste terrible, and will upset their
stomache making it vomit violently after eating any. They will on
the other hand find the true wonders of eating green leafy plants.
(Fish, Milk, eggs do not affect them one way or another, but animal
fats and oils Will result in negative effects).

The curse lasts until a Remove Curse is cast upon them of at least
the rank of the curse spell placed on them.

:Hair_Color

   COST   : 2
   MODS   : R

This will change the color of the body hair of a being or creature, and
the effect will last until the hair grows out or is colored again by a
spell. This effect cannot be dispelled.

:Hairy

   COST   : 1
   MODS   : D,R

This spell will cause a target to begin to grow hair. If the target
already HAS hair it will simply excellerate the growth process. If the
target normally doesn't have hair then it will cause it to grow hair
(yes, with this you CAN grow hair on a billiard ball!). The rate of
growth is 1 inch per ROUND of duration. Long durations are NOT suggested
with this spell.

:Hallucinatory_Forest

   COST   : 3
   MODS   : D,R

Cast outdoors, this creates a hallucinatory Forest to appear. Centaurs,
dryads, dragons, nymphs, satyrs, and treants will recognize it as an
illusion but all others will perceive it as real. It will fill an area
from the caster to the maximum range and an equal distance at an angle
specified by the caster (so it may be triangular or even square at
most).

Trees in such a forest will appear to have substance and form and will
not dissipate if touched like a Phantasmal force would. The forest WILL
act as cover for a camouflage spell or for someone dodging archery
attacks. Movement rates will be as if thru a real forest.

:Healing_Berries

   COST   : 5
   MODS   : R

   This spell is cast on ANY berries and will convert them into a
healing fruit from damage if consumed, healing 1 HTK each when eaten.
The berries are good for about a week after being made unless magically
preserved in some way. 10 berries per RANK can be enchanted this way.

:Heal_Burns

   COST   : 1
   MODS   : R,T

   This spell heals 1d10 of burn damage (no DURATION addition needed).
But does not close wounds, remove infections or set bones.

   Additional ranks add +1 to the effect of the heal.

:Healing_Sleep

   COST   : 3
   MODS   : R

This spell is cast on a willing, wounded recipient only and causes them
to fall into a coma-like sleep which will last for 10 hours. During this
time the recipient's body is working at an accelerated rate to heal
itself and it will heal 3d10 of wounds. There is NO way to bring the
subject out of the sleep, so unless you are in a safe place this spell
is NOT recommended! Additional ranks reduce the time of slumber by an
hour each (Max of 5 ranks).

:Herb_Enhancement

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : N

This spell is only useful if the Shaman has Herbology. It allows them
to take any natural herb and multiply its normal affects a hundred fold.
Thus an herb that is used to stop bleeding will actually partially
heal an open wound (for 1d10 effect); an herb that helps with upset
stomaches will cure nausea entirely (even from Stinking Cloud); an
herb that is poisonous becomes VERY poisonous and requires a save to
avoid fatality if consumed/injected, and so forth.

   Once enhanced the herb will remain enhanced.

:Inaudibility

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R

     By means of this spell, all sounds made by the recipient become
inaudible -- breathing, talking, walking, and the like.  Items on the
caster's person are likewise silenced, but thrown or dropped items may
make noise once released. Unlike a silence spell, inaudibility masks
only the sounds made by the recipient or items in his/her possession,
so it provides no defense against sound-based attacks such as harpy
singing, a horn of blasting, etc.  The spell remains in effect until
it is magically dispelled, until the caster or the recipient cancels it,
or until its duration has passed; it is not dispelled by the recipient
attacking another creature.

:Increase_Weight

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R

This can ONLY be cast on an object. It causes the object (for the duration)
to become tremendously heavy to lift for anyone except the caster. It adds
+30 to the minimum strength needed to lift the item. This is an EASY way
to foil theives - you can't steal what you can't move easily!

:IronMind

    COST   : 3
    MODS   : D

This spell permits the caster to concentrate powerfully, despite any
normal things that would distract him/her from their actions in casting
any other spell - even the receipt of actual physical damage, as long
as the duration of this spell continues. This allows a mage to overcome
one of the normal causes of spell failure.

:Invisibility_To_Mundanes

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R,T

This spell causes a being, object or locale to become invisible to
those who do not believe in magic and lack magical aptitude. It cannot
be cast on a Mundane and Mundanes get NO save against the effect.
It has NO effect on Mages and the like who view the invisible.

It will affect 200 lbs of matter plus 25 lbs per rank. If cast on a
locale instead of a being or object, it can cover 10 cubic feet per
rank of the caster and all within that area (but such cannot be
mobile).

It will NOT work against technological detection devices, including
cameras and the like. BUT to mundane persons it is complete
invisibility to all their senses.

:Know_Spellcaster

   COST   : 10
   MODS   : N

This spell is cast upon a magical object or ANY ongoing spell effect
(It can ALSO be cast during a REPLAY spell and will count what is
being viewed as an ongoing effect even though it is an image) whereupon
it will notify the caster of the the Name of the original caster.

:Leprechaun's_Luck

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R

    Cast on the caster or another, this instills magically enforced luck
upon them. Thus the character gets a +5% per RANK added to ALL their
saving throws made vs a stat for the duration.

:Leap

    COST   : 2
    MODS   : D,R

     When this spell is cast the individual is empowered with the
ability to leap.  The distance the individual is able to leap is 20'
per RANK bought of the spell, forward, backward or straight up. One
Jump per round of the spells duration can be made.

   Also at the end of the leap the individual will always land without
falling damage.

:Limb_Joining

    COST   : 20
    MODS   : R

This spell will allow the re-attachment of a recently severed limb
or digit to a body, doing 1d10 of healing in the process. It will
NOT work on a dead body or on a limb that has been severed for more
than an hour (unless the limb and the stump have been packed in
ice or otherwise preserved in some practical way.

:Limb_Running

     COST  : 1
     MODS  : D

This allows the caster to travel across any wooden surface safely,
upto a 90 degree angle, as if on normal ground. They can move at
full speed and need make no PROW rolls against the terrain while
doing so.

:Mending

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R

   This spell repairs small breaks or tears in objects.  It will weld a
broken ring, chain links, medallion, or dagger. Ceramic or wooden objects
with multiple breaks can be invisibly rejoined to be as strong as new.
A hole in a leather sack or wineskin is completely healed over by a
mending spell.  This spell does not, by itself, repair magical items of
any type.

   If cast on damaged armour it restores upto 1d10 of lost absorption
capability.

   Multiple TARGETS are not possible with this spell. If extra DURATION
is bought it will restore damage to larger items at the 1d10 Hardiness
rate, each round... in this way a broken wagon or even a house could be
returned to its original state, so long as there had been no magic in
its original state.

:Message_Scroll

      COST   : 12
      MODS   : N

This spell will transport a scroll to the named being it is intended
for instantly, no matter which plane they are on (except for the Astral
and dream planes). The name of the target being is the vital factor.

:Mind_Guard

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D

   This spell protects the caster or subject target being (must be
sentient) from the effects of a mental nature as well as natural
abilities like ESP, Telepathy (but not mind speech), Well_Of_Blackness*,
Hypnotism*, Charm Person, Curse of Senility, Detect Deryni, Detect
Spirit, Nude Mood, Possession, Quantum Leap, Spook, Steal Spell, and
even Taunt.

:Mind_Speech

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R,T

Allows the caster to communicate mentally with one or more beings. Must
be able to see the being when the spell is first cast, but does not
have to maintain visual contact. The mindspeech is just like normal
conversation, except that NONE of those involved can 'think' a lie
thru the link at the others, so honesty is the rule - any attempt to
lie directly will cause the link to severe. Once enacted, Mindspeech
is NOT affected by the distance - RANGE is only used for the initial
casting of the spell, thus the spell can be bought relatively cheaply
if all involved are in touching range at start, only duration and
possibly targets are needed.

:Mirror_Image

   COST   : 10
   MODS   : D,R,T

When invoked, this causes 4 duplicates to appear of the target. These
are illusions. They move about with the caster (or target) making it
nearly impossible to tell which is the real one. This means that if a
spell or attack is aimed at the target there is a saving throw made to
see if they hit the being or an image. If they hit an image that image
will disappear and the target takes no damage.... saving roll for the
target/images from such attacks:
              4 images present    80%
              3 images present    75%
              2 images present    66%
              1 image  present    50%
Once all images are gone the spell ends, otherwise they last until
the duration ends or the caster commands it to end.

:Mislead

     COST : 30
     MODS : D,R

   This spell places Assasin's_Invisibility* on the caster and at the
same time creates an illusionary double where he/she was. The mage
may then go about doing as they wish while controlling the illusion
and having it move, speak, smell and even feel real for the duration.
True Seeing will reveal what has occured. The Double cannot actually
pick up or otherwise move matter on its own.
    If the caster moves outside the range from the double then the
double disappears with a popping sound like that of a teleport.

:Non-Combustion_Field

     COST   : 5
     MODS   : D

This creates a 10' cubed area field where NO form of combustion works,
including normal fire, magical fire, Heat increases to combustion temp.
(which will NOT surpass 90 degrees F) etc. This is often bought LONG
TERM DURATION in order that a library may be thus protected by random
occurrences. Increased RANK increases the field size accordingly.

:Nude_Mood

   COST   : 10
   MODS   : R,T

Cast at a single being this forces them into a compulsive behavior to
immediately strip off all clothes and armour to stand naked (it does NOT
cause the removal of jewelry). Once they have completed this they will
return to their senses and have to deal with the situation.

TARGETS is only used if the targets involved are within 10' of each other.

:Phantasmal_Force

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R

This spell creates the illusion of any object, creature, or force, as
long as it is within the boundaries of the spell's area of effect, being
upto a 40 cubic feet in size per RANK of the Spell.

The illusion is visual and affects all believing creatures (undead are
immune) that view it. It does not create sound, smell, or temperature.
Effects that depend of these senses usually fail.  The illusion lasts
until struck by an opponent--unless the spellcaster causes the illusion
to react appropriately--or until the wizard ceases concentration upon the
spell (due to desire, moving, or a successful attack that causes damage)
or due to its duration ending.  Creatures that disbelieve the illusion
see it for what it is.  Creatures believing the illusion are subject to
its effects.

   The illusionary effect can be moved by the caster within the limits
of the area of effect. The GM has to rule on the effectiveness of this
spell.

:Pit

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : R

Creates a 5' radius pit 15' deep in dirt, sand or stone at the
location within the range. Duration is NOT used with this spell,
the pit does NOT vanish. Successive ranks of this spell makes
the pit another 15' in depth for each rank. If a pit is created UNDER a
sentient then the being gets a PROW save to avoid falling into the pit.

:Plant_Animation

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R

Allows the animation of any plant (including trees) and command of them
to act as the caster wishes. It does NOT allow plants to uproot their
bodies (except on tumbleweeds) but allows them to be used to grasp,
attack, etc. Lasts for the Duration.

:Plant_Growth

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R

When cast on any plant, sprout or seeds it will cause such to grow
to full size instantly. If the plant is full grown already then it
will DOUBLE the size of plant, but only for the duration. It cannot
be cast upon dead plants, only living ones.

:Pleasure_Touch

    COST   : 15
    MODS   : D

    This spell is cast on the caster primarily and gives his/her exposed
skin an added special property that affects others that come in contact
for the duration. Anyone touching the caster will feel EXTREME pleasure,
as if in orgasm, simply from the contact. The effect is mental primarily,
but if they fail a save vs HARD they also receive a Physical orgasm at
the same time.

    After such a contact they react in the usual ways from such and are
basically stunned and unable to act aggressively or to think too coherently
(about -75% to perform anything but basic movements, with the exception
of usage of tantrics skills), for about 1d10 + 1d10/RANK RNDS.

    If a physical reaction occured and the person touching was male then
no further effect will occur on them by direct contact for at least 15
minutes. If the person in contact was female the touch will continue to
produce reactions, but after the first touch effect they must save vs
INT after each Physical reaction to remain conscious. Unconsciousness
will last about an hour after being achieved.

:Poison_Thorns

     COST    : 7
     MODS    : R

This creates a spray of poisonous plant thorns at the target. 1d10 such
thorns are created per RANK of the spell. A prowness roll is made by the
target against EACH thorn. A Failed roll means they were scratched by the
thorn and receive 1d10 poison damage (Dwarves and similarly poison
resistant creatures are unaffected by this attack in that they will ONLY
receive 1 point damage per thorn, period). ARMOUR does not help vs this
attack, but a SHIELD may be used to deflect the entire attack if
successful otherwise rule applies as above. Thorns are NOT reusable.

:Pop

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : R

This spell is primarily named for the sound made when it is cast.
The caster is teleported a short distance (based on RANGE) within
their Line of Sight instantly with their equipment (upto 50 lbs).
They cannot appear within a solid object. Each additional RANK adds
50 lbs to the carriable weight.

:Preservation

      COST   : 1
      MODS   : D,R

This is cast upon a container holding food, a potion, a liquid of some
sort or herbs and spices and will prevent their decaying from their
current state for the duration the spell is cast at. It will handle upto
5 gallons of said material per RANK, and can be used on multiple
containers upto that size factor. Its a popular spell with merchants.

:Protective_Cloak_Of_Sutar

    COST    : 15
    MODS    : D,T

This brings into existance a physical magical cloak upon the caster or the
target being which has several properties. The Cloak will exist for the
duration unless dispelled, but can be removed at will and will continue to
exist unless dispelled. The Cloak is as light as lace, but actually gives
warmth from cold - protecting from cold based attacks, absorbing up to 10
points of each such attack (with no limit on how many it can sustain). It
will also protect against fire based attacks (magical and non) equally.
The cloak also acts as a defense against all DRAINING Spells and Powers
while worn and will act as a permanent Feather-fall while worn. The cloak
can be destroyed if struck by an electrical based attack or an acid based
one before its duration ends. It is a dark blue in color and has a metal
appearing chain fastener. It offers NO protection from normal weapons,
unless fire or cold based.

:Protection_from_Constriction

   COST    : 1
   MODS    : D

When cast, a Protection from Constriction spell will mitigate crushing
damage taken each round from a single attack form.  Up to five points per
rank of the spell is deducted from crushing damage.  Note that
this does not mitigate damage from crushing weapons or falling; it will
protect against constriction, bear hugs, Bigby's Crushing Hand, or any
similar gradual compression.

:Protection_From_Disease

      COST    : 3
      MODS    : D,T

This spell is often used to protect the caster from a contagious
patient. It basically prevents any disease from affecting the mage
while the duration is in effect. It can also be cast on someone who
is NOT infected who may be exposed to a disease.

:Protection_From_Friendly_Missiles

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,T

This prevents the recipient from being accidentally struck by any
missile or stray weapon not intended originally for them. This is very
useful if you have 'clumbsy' companions.

:Protection_From_Hunger_and_Thirst

    COST   : 3
    MODS   : D,R,T

   When protection from hunger and thirst is cast, the recipient
requires no food, water, or nourishment of any kind for the duration of
the spell.  The recipient can be the caster or anyone he touches.  Each
day the caster (or the subject of the caster's choice) is under the
effect of the spell, he is fully nourished as if he had eaten and drunk
normally.  At the end of the spell's duration, the subject is no more
hungry or thirsty than he was when the spell was originally cast.
   A person with this spell on them will NOT gain magical energy as they
would normally for consuming food and will NOT be able to eat more than
1 pound additional food/water for that purpose (and will gain 1/2 pound
of weight if eating is done for this purpose since the nourishment is an
excess!)

:Quantas_Target_Bow

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D

While this spell is in effect, any arrows fired from this magic bow
(which may be of any type EXCEPT a crossbow) are +20% to hit a target.
The caster must be able to see the target, and call his/her shot.

Note that the arrow fired from the target bow is in no way magical.
Since the spell ONLY generates the Bow.

:Radius_Dampen_Technology

    COST   : 20
    MODS   : D,R

   This projects from the point of casting out to a radius of the
paid for RNG in a field that reduces the current in electronic
equipment. While in this area all electronic equipment will simply
fail to function. It does not affect chemical or mechanically
based devices or anything magically enhanced or magical of nature
(thus a technomage would not be affected by this).

:Rainbow_Bridge

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : D,R

The caster creates with this a very visible rainbow to form a seven-hued
bridge up to 3' wide per RANK and at least 20' long (adding an optional
20' long per RANK the spell is known at) that can hold any weight upto
2000 LBS /RANK upon it to cross it as a normal bridge.

:Remove_Curse

    COST   : 20
    MODS   : D,R

being.

:Remove_Scars

   COST   : 1
   MODS   : R

On casting this spell, the caster is empowered to remove scars or other
similar marks (burn marks, birth marks, etc.).  This will enable the
recipient of the spell to restore lost charisma caused by such marks.

:Resist_Cold

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R,T

This spell lasts for the duration or until the spell has absorbed 100
points of cold damage to protect the target from harm.

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R

This lasts for the duration or until a total of 100 points of damage
have been absorbed by the spell to protect the target from harm.

:Resist_Paralysis

    COST   : 3
    MODS   : D,R,T

For the duration of this spell, the recipient is immune to all forms of
paralysis, including gaze attacks, paralytic poison, and Hold spells,
but it does not negate paralysis already in effect.

:Restoration_Ritual

    COST   : 30
    MODS   : N

   This ritual is used to restore to a being that which it has lost from
drains, spell effects that erase memories and skills, and Serious Disease
effects that drop stats permanently. It must be cast within one month of
the actual loss of such to be effective. It will restore the lost points
in the process, the loss skills and lost memories. It will also regrow
any lost body part and make functional any body part that was seriously
injured previously.

:Rock-Jump

   COST   : 1
   MODS   : R

With this spell, the caster can cause a rock to find its way into the
shoe of the victim. If the victim has no shoes, the spell causes a
thorn or something to stick into the foot of the victim.

Such will cause a reduction of running/walking/hiking speed by 1/2
until removed but causes no real damage but is VERY annoying.

:Room_of_Seclusion

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D

With this spell, the caster can create an extra-dimensional room (10'
cube per RANK) with one side adjacent to an unbroken 5' x 3' area
(i.e. one that has no doors, windows, or other such openings).  The
surface area (which must be touched) now acts as a phase door into the
secluded room. The room can be of any shape and size up to the limit of
the spell but at least one side must be at least a 10' x 10' area.
Thus, the room could be rectangular, pyramidal, hemispherical, etc. The
room lasts for the duration, or until dispelled. This can only be
cast on wood, a living tree, or on natural earth and stone.

The caster may bring any item, materials, etc. as he or she desires
into the room, so long as the object can fit through the phase door and
is touched by the caster (and only by the caster).

At the end of the spell's duration, anyone or anything still within the
room is now trapped in that extradimensional space. escape is only
possible through other extraplanar travel. This also occurs when a
dispel magic or similar magic is cast against the phase door area.

The phase door itself is detectable by any means available that can
detect magical auras, but the room itself can only be contacted through
extraplanar means. Spells such as clairvoyance and clairaudience would
not detect the events on the other side of the phase door surface.

:Rope_Trick

    COST   : 3
    MODS   : D

When this spell is cast on a piece of rope from 5' to 30' in length. One
end of the rope rises into the air until the whole is hanging
perpendicular, as if affixed at the upper end. The upper end is, in
fact, fastened in an extra-dimensional space, and the spell caster and
upto 5 others can climb up the rope and disappear into this place of
safety where no creature can find them. The rope can be pulled up behind
them, otherwise it hangs down from the space. At spells durations end
the contents of the space fall back into normal space, so getting out
before it expires may be best to avoid falling damage.

:Safeguard

     COST   : 15
     MODS   : D,R

   This spell is cast on a radial area from the caster and will remain
in that area after the caster has left it. All damage inflicting spells
cast or striking in that area will only have minimal effects, that is
1 point of damage per Die rolled.

:Sanctuary

    COST   : 7
    MODS   : D

This spell will allow the caster some level of protection in return for
non-hostile action. The caster cannot in any way, after casting this,
attack, perform hostile act upon or cast harmful magic upon anyone or
they cancel the spell.

   While Sanctuary is in effect the caster is protected - anyone wishing
to take a hostile action against the caster must make a saving throw vs
INT to target on the caster. The effect does NOT apply if the spell
being used is an area effect.

:Sandrunning

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D

Allows the caster to travel along loose sand or Dust as if they were
on a paved road for the duration, able to move without any problems
with sinking or floundering.

:See_Invisible

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,T

Allows the caster to see any invisible creatures, including persons
under and invisibility spell or camouflaged, and similarly invisible
objects. It will NOT detect Astral or Ethereal Plane travelers. It will
also see thru Phantasmal Force Spells.

   RANGE is unnecessary with this spell, as it is set at LOS only.

:Selective_Invisibility

     COST   : 15
     MODS   : D,R,T

    This is a varient on normal invisibility. It causes the subject
to be invisible to others but NOT to the caster or other subjects
affected by the spell. In other words if multiple targets is used and
a group of people have this cast on them, they will be able to see
each other fine but others will not be able to.

    The effect is otherwise identical to a normal invisibility spell,
except that Undead and Mind Shielded people can ALWAYS see the invisble
target(s).

:Sex_Change

    COST   : 15
    MODS   : D,R

This is a simplex polymorph, it does not change the race or mass of a
being, but merely alters it from male to female or female to male with
the available materials. It does not change the innate nature,personality
or intelligence of the being or even alter their concepts of sexuality
directly, it is PURELY biological. The spell lasts for the duration paid
for by the caster and it can be cast on another or on the mage
themselves. This spell main seem frivolous to some, but it has its uses.
for example there is one tale of a Princess of an invaded country having
escaped by such a spell and the stealing of the uniform of one of her
captors (a disguise not possible by simply the uniform due to physical
attributes).

The spell will utilize what's available, so for example in transformation
from male to female the overall body hair is reduced while the body hair
upon the head is increased in length to appear more feminine.

:Shape_Wood

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : R

This spell allows the caster to shape an existing quantity of wood to
suit their own desires and needs. The wood can be reformed, but its mass
cannot be increased in the process of the spell (it can be REDUCED
though). Thus a crossbow might be shaped and its wooden parts turned
into a large bowl (the metal parts would fall off in the process), a
plank might be made into a quarterstaff, a table could be made into a
chair or a chair into a wooden shield. Once affected the results remain
for good. The spell does NOT change the quality of the wood or its type
in the process. This spell can also NEGATE the effects of WARP_WOOD*

:Silence_Sphere

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R

This spell is normally cast on a being or object and causes a sphere
of complete silence to surround the target for a 15' radius per RANK
the spell is known at. ALL sound in the area is stopped, and the
sphere moves with the target. It can be canceled by the caster, by
a Dispell_Magic* or a Dispell_Silence* spell. Unwilling beings do get
their resistance modifier. If a mage is caught inside such a sphere
they become -10% from their normal chance to cast spells due to the
interference of this spell.

:Sky_Ship

    COST   : 30
    MODS   : D

This spell forms a special form of transportation for the mage, a
magical vessel that flies upon the winds. This Ship is 10' in length
from Bow to Stern per RANK of the spell and moves within the air on the
casters command at a speed twice that covered by a land based vehicle
on a clear plain (60 miles a day can be covered). The ship is unhindered
by terrain, except by mountains. It cannot be dispelled, and is itself
invulnerable to attack by non-magical means. The sky ship can carry 500
lbs of cargo for each RANK, including passengers. It has 100 HTK per
RANK and is unharmed by electricity in any way. It can hover, move
vertically or horizontally easily, all at the casters will. If the
caster sleeps they can choose for it to hover or to continue on in a
single direction unstopping.

      It cannot be detected by Radar.

:Sleep

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R,T

   When a wizard casts a sleep spell, he causes a comatose slumber to
come upon one or more creatures (other than undead and certain other
creatures specifically excluded from the spell's effects).  All
creatures to be affected by the sleep spell must be within 30 feet of
each other. The center of the area of effect is determined by the
spellcaster.

   Slapping or wounding awakens affected creatures but normal noise does
not. Awakening requires one entire round.  Magically sleeping opponents
can be attacked with substantial bonuses (Prowness 1)

:Snow_Ball

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R

This creates in the casters hand a normal snowball which can be thrown
at a target. It melts at the end of its duration, unless it has hit
target (when it melts a round later). The snowball does no damage, and
can be avoided with a prowness roll or shield usage, but if it strikes
a mage it counts as a distraction which they must make an INT roll
against losing spell concentration on.

:Speak_With_Animals

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D

Allows the caster or targeted being to speak with creatures of animal
intelligence. This is NOT Charm Animals, it simply allows the asking of
basic information, though while in effect the animals will not attack
the being speaking with them unless attacked.

:Speed

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : D,R,T

Allows the caster or subject beings to move consistently at maximum
speed. This means they get a +20 to all initiative rolls.

:Spell_Reflection

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : D,T

   This places an aura around the caster or a target being that
protects from ALL spells cast directly at them that is single targeted
by reflecting the spell back to its source if an Intuition saving roll
is made successfully. If the source also has a Spell Reflection up
it may also bounce the same spell back again until one of the two
fails its save and is struck.

:Spell_Trace

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : R,T

Cast on an object or on a target of a recently discharged spell, this
will give the mage an image of the caster who originally cast the spell.
It also works on an ACTIVE spell ongoing.

:Spider_Climb

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R,T

By this spell, the creature can walk on any surface and not slip.  The
creature can walk on walls, ceilings, ice, etc. and not slip or slide
(feet are like suction cups to the surface).

:Spike_Stones

        COST   : 15
        MODS   : R

This spell transforms 1d10/rank ordinary rocks of baseball size or smaller
into dangerous traps that activate when stepped on. DURATION is not used
with this spell. Each of the affected stones will, when a weight of 20
lbs or greater presses upon them, have nasty spikes protrude from their
surface like caltrops of a larger size. These will do 2d10 damage each
when stepped on. The spikes are stone in nature, extensions of the rock,
and remain outward after being sprung. They cannot be reused.

:Spirit_Ship

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : D,R

This creates a sailboat (capacity 4 persons) at the specified range that
will last for the duration and includes all needed equipment. It
vanishes when the spell expires.

The Spirit Ship cannot be used as a weapon.

:Spray_Of_Stones

        COST   : 1
        MODS   : R

This spell creates and throws at the target a spray of small rocks and
stones from the elemental plane of Earth. The attack does 1d10 (+2 /Rank
the spell is known at) but is a mundane attack otherwise (Shield, armour
both can be applied).

:Spying_Ear

   COST   : 10
   MODS   : D,R

This spell allows the caster to hear anything said within the area in which
the spell is cast (A sphere the size of the range), just as if the caster
was standing there, for the entire length of the duration, no matter where
the caster goes to.

:Stinking_Cloud

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : D,R

When a stinking cloud is cast the mage causes a billowing mass of
nauseous vapors to come into being in a 10' radius circle at the point
of targeting (additional 10'/Rank of spell). Any creature within the
cloud (except those who cannot smell or breathe) are helpless as long
as they remain inside the cloud, retching and coughing. Once outside
the cloud it takes a full round before the victim of such to be able
to act other than movement.

The cloud remains for the duration, unless blowing away by breezes etc

:Summon_Minor_Insect

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : R

This spell, unlike most, works within a single round of casting instead
of the usual three.

This spell summons to the target a single specimen (per rank) of an
ordinary natural insect. Thus the spell could be used to summon a Fly, a
spider, a bee, a gnat, a grasshopper etc. Once summoned the insect
remains as long as it chooses unless killed etc.

:SunScreen

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : D,R,T

This spell was, it is believed, developed by a Drow mage to protect
against the effects of the daytime sun. It prevents the hinderance to
eyesight caused by extremely bright sun by partially polarizing the
subjects eyes when in extreme light (It also protects against all FLASH
type effects that blind momentarily by bright light) and also prevents
skin burning problems from extreme sun. Besides it uses for Drow it has
also proved useful to mages in the Desert or Wastelands areas where the
sun is VERY direct and it helps against snow blindness too.

:Taunt

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R

   A taunt spell enables the caster to jape and jeer effectively at a
single type of creature with Intelligence. The caster need not speak the
language of the creatures.  His words and sounds have real meaning for
the subject creature or creatures: challenging, insulting, and generally
irritating and angering the listeners.  Those failing to save vs.
INTUITION rush forth in fury to do battle with the spellcaster.  All
affected creatures attack the spellcaster in melee if physically capable
of doing so, seeking to use body or hand-held weapons rather than missile
weapons or spells.

   Separation of the caster from the victim by an impenetrable or
uncrossable boundary (a wall of fire, a deep chasm, a formation of set
pikemen) causes the spell to break.  If the caster taunts a mixed group,
he must choose the type of creature to be affected.

   If used in conjunction with a ventriloquism spell, the creatures
may attack the apparent source, depending upon their Intelligence, a
leader's presence, and so on.

:Trackless

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R,T

   This spell prevents the caster or target from leaving footprints of any
kind, including the heat traces visible by infravision, as their appendages
do not quite touch the surface they are passing over, and thus leave no
prints or residue.

:Transfer_Energy

      COST   : 1
      MODS   : D,R,T

This allows mages to transfer energy to each other by choice. Those
involved MUST be willing. The being losing the energy decides how much
they transfer and to who. Energy cannot be transferred to a non-mage
being unless they are magical in nature. Only RAW energy *not HUNG
spells* can be transferred this way.

:Transmute_Rock_To_Sand

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : R

This transmutes stone of any kind into sand instantly, affecting an
area of 10' square per RANK of the spell.

:Transport_Via_Plants

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : N

This spell will enable the caster to enter a tree or other large plant, and
pass any distance to another plant of the same type instantly.  Both the
entry and the destination plant MUST be alive.  The caster may travel to a
memorized plant without trouble.  If the caster does not have a memorized
plant near his destination, he may specify the location he wishes to go
to and will go to the plant of that type nearest to the location if he
makes an INT roll.  If he fails the INT roll, he will go to a random plant
within 100 miles of the desired plant.  The caster may take 100 pounds per
RANK worth of equipment with him.

:Treacherous_Tripwire

    COST   : 2
    MODS   : D

One wire (up to 10' long) can be stretched across a hall, or such.  The
wire becomes camouflaged -- undetectable w/o find traps.  The first
creature to attempt to pass must save vs. Prowness or be caught when the
wire springs free.  The magical wire will twine tightly about the ankles
of its victim, tripping him. If the victim saves then the trap remains
set until triggered or until its duration expires.

It must then be tediously untangled (or sawed loose) which will take at
least 3-6 rounds under ideal conditions.  If hacked loose in combat, it
will take 3 rounds.

Once untangled/broken the wire will fade away into nothingness.

:Tree_Speech

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : D

This allows the caster to establish a mental conversational link
with a Tree to request of it information or to provide information
to it. Thus a mage might learn of all who passed by such a tree,
who caused it harm, how long since an event occured etc.

The tree can either speak in words or in images to the caster,
dependent on its own inclination. The spell works on anything from
a seedling to a full grown tree but fails against dead wood.

:Tree_Swipe

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R,T

By use of this spell, the caster will control a tree branch for the
duration of the spell.  The caster can make the branch wave, attack,
fan a small breeze, etc.  If the branch attacks, it does so with a
prowness of 75% and will do 1d10+2 damage. This spell works only on
full size trees.

If multiple TARGETS are purchased they can only be applied to other
branches on the same tree.

:UnParalyze

    COST   : 2
    GUILDS : G,R
    MODS   : R

Restores movement to a person, no matter the cause of the Paralysis.

:Ventriloquism

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R

   This spell enables the wizard to make his voice--or someone else's
voice--or a similar sound seem to issue from someplace else, such as
from another creature, a statue, from behind a door, down a passage,
etc.  The spellcaster can speak in any language that he knows, or make
any sound he can normally make.  With respect to such voices and
sounds, anyone rolling a successful saving throw vs. INTUITION with
a -5 penalty detects the ruse.

If cast in conjunction with other illusions, the GM may rule greater
penalties or disallow an independent saving throw against this spell in
consideration of its contribution to the total effect of the combined
illusion.

:Vision_Quest_Ritual

        COST   : 10
        MODS   : N

This spell allows a mage another means of learning new spells or
knowing a particular piece of wanted information. The spell can also
be cast on another, who is willing, for the same purposes. When on
a Vision quest the character it is cast on drifts off into a dream
filled sleep upon the plane of dreams. It guides them towards their
goal there, but may include great dangers or hazards that could affect
their body and mind back on the real world. The ritual takes about
2 hours. If klutzed the character involved comes back with a roll on
the insanity table and does NOT gain what was wanted. Otherwise they
roll as follows:

           01-05 Character easily finds out what they went in
                 search for with no detrimental effects and
                 no real memory of what occurred.

this spell). Its purpose is to protect and keep dry objects that could
otherwise be damaged or destroyed by water (e.g., spellbooks, torches,
tinderboxes, etc.), since precipitation merely beads and rolls off the
recipient and bodies of water do not penetrate the barrier. The spell

Those within cannot employ HTH attacks, Missile weapons and spellcasters
who try to cast from within it are -25% their normal success due to lack
