Cause Disease

Korac’s Demise

3   E     P     Indefinite

This spell will infect the recipient with a debilitating disease. The infection is not contagious, but makes the victim unable to run.

The victim will appear increasingly listless and ill as the disease progresses and will lose a Body Point every half an hour. These Body Points can be regained through healing spells.

The loss of a Body Point every half an hour will continue until the disease is cured by a Cure Disease or a Dispel Magic.

The spell Purify Blood will not cure someone under the effects of this spell.

This spell might not be effective against creatures with no metabolism.

Charm

Dalton’s Mystic Befriending

7   CE              One Hour

This spell makes the victim view the caster as his or her best friend in the whole world. While this spell is in effect, no amount of logic or roleplaying will convince the victim that he or she has been Charmed, and the victim will not remember the casting of the spell.

An attack on the victim by the caster’s party will not immediately break the spell, but if the caster cannot come up with a good reason why he or she is not helping to defend the victim, then that will. If the caster attacks the victim, then the spell is broken immediately.

A victim of this spell will not do anything completely against his or her own nature (such as attack his or her own party) unless a very good reason can be given by the caster. The spell does not turn the victim into a mindless robot blindly following orders, but it does require the victim to stay by the side of the new “friend” and listen to his or her “suggestions.” (Note that this assumes that they both speak the same language. You cannot obey a “suggestion” that you don’t understand.)

This spell only works on creatures that have a mind as defined by the game. Several creatures (such as lesser undead, golems, or some giant insects) do not have a mind that can be affected by this spell.

After the spell’s duration expires, the victim remembers everything that happened except the actual casting of the Charm spell. Depending upon the circumstances, the victim might sometimes realize that he or she had been charmed.

If hit with another Charm spell or Charm effect, the most recent one will take precedence if there is a conflict. This does not necessarily negate the first Charm effect.

Note that this spell is not strong enough to override Control Undead, Enslavement or Vampire Charm.

“I command you to be Charmed.”

Circle of Power

Lania’s Power Circle

9   CE              1 Hour

This spell allows the caster to inscribe a circle of protection against harm. Before casting the spell, a visible, physical representation of the Circle must be drawn in the dirt or represented by something physical like chalk, a ribbon or some string. This physical representation is in-game and can be erased, moved or stolen at any time before the spell is cast.

The caster must be fully within the completed circle. This spell cannot be cast until the phys rep is complete. Anyone who steps on the phys rep while it is being raised will be pushed inside or outside of the Circle (player’s choice). The phys rep does not have to be a perfect circle, but if the phys rep is too big, or both of the ends are not almost touching, then the spell is blown.

It is up to 6 feet in radius by 10' tall and is a cylindrical dome in shape with a bottom. The circle has about the same amount of friction as a normal wall or floor, although objects and creatures cannot lean against, rest against, or be placed on top of the circle.

If any large, immovable object, such as a tree or building, is in the way of a rising circle such that it would be both on the inside and outside of the circle, the circle fails. This includes the height restriction. In the case of a tree that is taller than 10 feet, a circle cannot be successfully placed around it. For ease of play, a single circle or multiple circles can never be used to encircle a tree (or any other large object), unless the tree’s height can easily be measured. In the case of a ceiling less than 10 feet tall, the circle will be of reduced height, so that the entire ceiling will be on the outside of the circle.

Larger Circles can be made by having multiple spellcasters casting the spell simultaneously. Both the radius and the height of the circle are increased. For example, a 12 foot radius Circle may be made by two casters. The casters do not have to be from the same school.

Circle of Power, Ward, Wizard Lock and Wall of Force effects may not overlap in any way. These barriers may be within one another, but must always be fully within, or fully external to, each other. For example, you may surround a circle with another circle, you may put a Ward on a building that is fully within a Circle, etc. Celestial and Earth spells may combine freely for these effects.

Nothing may enter or leave the circle once the circle is cast, including spells, thrown gasses, weapons and creatures. Traps placed near the Circle will not affect anyone or anything inside. Spells may be cast within the circle, but they cannot be effective outside of the circle. Air may pass through, but other gases may not. A gaze attack such as a Vampire Charm can be effective through a Circle of Power. A Gypsy Curse can also be used through the Circle. Creatures inside a circle are still considered inside Line of Sight.

The spell lasts for one hour, but may be dropped by the caster at any time if he or she touches the circle and states “Circle down.” If there is more than one caster in a larger circle, any one of the casters may drop the Circle. The statement “Circle Down” is out-of-game, although any observers who hear the statement are aware that the Circle was dropped, and they might know who dropped it.

The circle will also go down if the caster leaves the circle magically or dies (needing a Life spell). If there is more than one caster, the Circle will remain up until all of the casters leave or die.

The circle is not affected by Dispel Magic.

This spell can also be used to create a Circle that can be used for the casting of a Formal Magic Spell. Details on casting a circle usable for these rituals is available through your local chapter.

For information on Permanent Circles, see the chapter on Magic.

“With eldritch force, I build a Circle of Power.”

Confine

Mannaria’s Advanced Eldritch Binder

8   CE    Line of Sight

This spell snares the arms of its victim, binding them straight to its sides, and immobilizes the victim completely. The victim may talk freely, but may not use any game skills requiring use of the arms, including using a weapon or shield, casting a spell, or activating a gas globe. The victim may not walk, run, or be moved in any way. Any item the victim is holding cannot be dropped, even if hit with a Disarm effect. However, since the effect allows the victim to be searched, anyone else can choose to physically remove a hand-held item from the victim by simply “searching” them. Even a victim with Superhuman Strength cannot prevent himself from being “searched” in this manner.

This spell does not prevent the victim from being given a Killing Blow.

“With mystic force, I Confine you.”

Control Undead

Ylivik’s Sphere of Coercion

2   E                 1 Hour

This spell allows the caster to control one lesser undead for one hour. Tasks may not involve any sentient thought higher than an animal: “Guard this” is fine, but “Count all the leaves on that tree” requires sentience and will not work. The most recent Control Undead effect takes precedent, if there is a conflict. This spell will not affect a living target, although it will remove a living person’s Shield Magic or Reflect Magic.

This effect is stronger than Charm, Shun, Dominate or Fear. The most recent Control Undead, Vampire Charm or Enslavement effect will take precedent if there is a conflict.

“I call upon chaos to Control Undead.”

Create Undead

Necro’s Re-animator

7   E                 1 Hour

This spell only works on a corpse that has not previously been animated, and will pull the character’s spirit back to reanimate its former body. The resulting zombie will then follow the caster’s commands as if a Control Undead spell had been cast upon it. Note that this spell must be cast within the five minute period between a character’s death and the point where the spirit heads to the Earth Circle for resurrection. This spell will not affect a living target, although it will remove a living person’s Shield Magic or Reflect Magic.

This spell transforms the individual into a mindless berserker who will fight until reduced to no hit points or until ordered to stop by the caster.

The zombie can use no skills: no critical attacks, no spells, no waylays. It will do damage based on its weapons only. It cannot cast spells nor converse (although it may be commanded to parrot a particular phrase given it by the caster). If the newly created zombie has no weapon, then it will be able to attack with “claws” (up to short sword sized weapons) doing one point of damage each. The caster must provide the physical representations for the claws.

The creature’s visual appearance does not change immediately. Makeup is not immediately required for this spell, but should be donned at earliest possible convenience. A Hold may never be called in order to acquire proper phys-reps or makeup.

If the zombie is reduced to zero Body Points or the one hour time limit runs out, then the spirit is once again free and cannot be trapped again. Once freed, the spirit will attempt to resurrect only if the five minute count for a Life spell has been complete. If the zombie is reduced to zero body points within the five minute count, the body does not dissipate immediately. The spirit will remember nothing of the time spent as a zombie. The one hour time period cannot be extended by any means, even by Formal Magic.

The zombie created will have half the body points the victim had in life, as well as any armor that is left on the corpse. The new zombie is immune to all alchemical substances and the spells Charm, Death, Life, Paralysis, Sleep and Taint Blood. In addition, the zombie will take double damage from all healing spells and will be doubly cured to its maximum from all necromantic spells. It will be affected by all undead affecting spells such as Trap Undead and Sanctuary.

Trisilia’s Curse

7   E     P     Indefinite

This spell will cause the victim to take double damage from all attacks that would affect them, either physical or magical. It can be removed by a Remove Curse or a Dispel Magic. The damage taken is doubled before any Spell Defenses are applied. The Curse effect does not lower a creature’s Threshold, nor does it make the creature affected by additional attacks that would not normally affect it.

“I Curse you with destruction.”
