From: brunborg@solan.unit.no (Aadne Brunborg) Subject: Spell: Stoneskin Remover Date: 7 Nov 92 12:40:11 GMT Here's a nice spell for those who often run into opponents with stoneskin (are you reading this, Knut?). Any comments are welcome, but no flames. If you feel need to flame this, you must be a Red Dragon {8-) (no offence, reddrgon!!) My own comments: This is a fairly powerful spell to be 2nd level, but with the restrictions I've put on it, it's pretty useless against anything but a person with stoneskin. It MAY inflict a minor amount of damage, and on the relative short range, not many are going to walk around with this spell memorised unless they are pretty sure of meeting opponents with stoneskin. ---------------------------- Zhaida's's Instant Stoneskin Remover ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 2nd level wizard spell (Evocation, conjuration) Range: 2 yards + 1 yard/level Components: V,S,M Casting time: 2 Area of effect: 1 person/creature Saving throw: Special This spell creates 1d4 pebbles, plus 1 pebble/level, up to a maximum of 1d4+12 at 12th level. Each pebble counts as one attack regarding stoneskin-spells. The caster must roll an successful attack roll vs. AC10 with +4 added to the dice for this to have effect. No modifiers for range, magical protection or dexterity applies. Each pebble will remove one stoneskin, and no save is allowed. If used against an opponent without stoneskin, an unmodified attack roll vs. target's AC is required. If successful, each pebble will inflict but one hit point of damage, and a successful save vs. spell reduces this to one-half damage, rounded down. If the spell creates more pebbles than the target has stoneskins, the extra pebbles are lost, they will not inflict any damage. The material components are a pebble or sling stone to be hurled towards the target. ---------------------- From: brunborg@alkymi.unit.no (Aadne Brunborg) Date: 4 Dec 92 12:48:22 GMT Newsgroups: rec.games.frp.dnd Subject: Re: Identifying Magical Items Zhaida's Improved Identifyer (Diviniation) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Level: 6 Range: 0 Components: V,S,M Duration: 1 round/level Casting Time: 10 hours Area of Effect: 1 object Saving throw: None This spell is a more powerful version of the Identify spell. The caster may "read" one "plus" cast on the item per round and to "read" one special effect per 2 rounds. (a +5 sword requires 5 rounds to read, a flame tounge requires 9 rounds (1 for the base plus, 2 for flaming and 3*2=6 for variable effects). Effects upon the caster are as for the Identify spell. It will not reveal the exact intelligence and ego of a sentinent weapon, but may reveal some of it's powers. The material components are one gem of no less than 1000 gp value. Used in combination with the Legend Lore spell, it may Identify almost anything short of Artifacts and Relics. If this spell is to be used by a NPC employed to identify an item, it will cost 15 000 gp. ---------------------- From: brunborg@alkymi.unit.no (Aadne Brunborg) Subject: Fly spell for priests Date: 6 Dec 92 18:12:16 GMT Here's a fly-spell for priests, something long-missed by many players. 8-) Wings of God (Alteration) ^^^ insert your deity's name Sphere: All Level: 3 Range: 0 Components: V,S,M Duration: as fly Casting time: 3 Area of effect: 1 person Saving Throw: None This spell causes large wings to grow on the back of the priest, allowing him to fly as the wizard spell "Fly". The spell is not affected by armor of any sort (the wings will grow through the armor, and the armor will not be destroyed). If the deity is good-aligned, the wings are white, angel-like, and if (s)he's evil, they will be devil-like. Druids grow eagle-like wings, and other neutral deitys grants grey feather-wings. Normally, this spell may only be cast on the followers of the same god as the cleric. However, in dire needs it may be cast on any person. If cast on another person under "non-dire" needs, the priest loses access to the spell for 2 days. The material components are the cleric's holy symbol, plus a white feather for good, an eagle-feather for druids, any feather for neurtal and a bat wing for evil clerics. The components may be reused. ------------------------------- ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ + + + + ++brunborg@alkymi.unit.no+ + "Yeah, alright!
