Emerald and Ruby: Constant +3 / -3

Diamond: Constant +5 / -5

Accursed Glare: (Necromancy) You channel a terrible curse through your glare. If the target fails its save, it begins to obsessively second guess its actions and attract bad luck. (Strike Lessen)

Acid Wit: (Alteration) This spell causes a large, floating mouth to appear and follow the victim for one combat. The mouth criticizes, harangues, insults and berates the target in the victim's native tongue. The target suffers a penalty to strike from the distraction of the constant barrage from the mouth.

Armor Lock: (Transmutation) Upon pointing at an armored foe, you cause all of the joints of the target's armor to stiffen as otherworldly chains wrap around the target. Targets wearing no armor or nonmetallic armor are unaffected. This affects their ability to strike. (Strike Lessen)

Forceful Yank: (Psionic/Force) You wrap a telekinetic fist around your opponent, and pull them onto your waiting blade. This grants you accuracy during battle. (Strike Boost)

Godspeed: (Transmutation) You call upon divine energy to grant speed to your target, causing your movements to seem blurry, as it grants you the ability to hit your enemies with ease. (Strike Boost)

Hasten (Transmutation) The transmuted creature moves and acts more quickly than normal. (Strike Boost)

Heartglow: (Transmutation [good]) You focus holy power within yourself into your heart, causing it to glow like a brilliant light, which can be seen through your chest, and even your clothing and armor.

Lead Blade: This spell increases the momentum and density of your melee weapon just as it strikes a foe. (Strike Boost)

Lullaby: (Enchantment/Mind Effect) Your spell causes the target to get drowsy, making them less able to strike you in combat. (Strike Lessen)

Bless: (Enchantment/Mind Effect) This fills your allies with courage, causing them to gain a buff to their Strike.

Enlightened Storm: This arcane storm manifests as a bright, warm, sunny day. The sun shines even at night, helping to drive evil and undead creatures into their dark homes or underground.

While in the area of this storm, allied creatures gain a morale bonus to their strike for one round of combat.

Ice Slick: An ice slick spell covers a solid surface with a layer of slippery ice. Creatures who fail their save, slip and skid, causing them to be unable to strike as well as before. (Strike Lessen)

Mass Guidance: This spell guides her allies to make truer strikes, enabling them to see just enough of the future to anticipate where their targets will be to hit them easier. (Strike Boost)

Mass Hasten (Transmutation) The transmuted creatures move and act more quickly than normal, giving them a boost to Strike.

Murmuring Masses: (Illusion/Phantasm) This creates an illusionary crowed of mentally murmuring voices, causing any psion (Psion, Spellborn or Psionic Affinity) targeted to be effected by a debuff of their Strike if they are using any psionic spells, invocations, skills, etc for one round of combat.

Spirit of Consuming Terror: This can be targeted against one enemy, or AoE. It creates an overwhelming feeling of fear in the target/s causing them to be unsure about their movements, whether they should even be fighting the mystic and her team. This decreases their strike. (Lessen Strike)

Spirit of the War Chief: This is a strike buff for the mystic's team, and fills them with courage and focus, allowing them to better strike against the enemies.

Wind Churn: This debuff causes flying targets to be less able to strike true while in combat. You cause the air around and above you to churn. While creatures on the ground merely feel a breeze, the chaotic winds buffet those in the air. They must land on the ground in order to regain what was lost from their strike boost.(Strike Lessen)

---

A hold spell causes your target to lose a turn of combat in some fashion. Depending on your hold description, targets may be immune. I.E. If your hold causes a creature to fall asleep, and your target is Immune to Sleep, it will fail.

Crystal and Topaz: 1 round
Amber and Sapphire: 2 rounds
Emerald and Ruby: 3 rounds
Obsidian: 4 rounds
Diamond: 1 round no save, 4 rounds with save each time

Adhesive Blood: (Transmutation) Upon being attacked, your blood thickens and becomes a glue-like substance upon contact with air. A piercing or slashing weapon that deals damage to you is stuck fast unless the wielder succeeds at their save. A creature can pry off a stuck weapon on its turn with a successful Strength check against the spell's DC. Strong alcohol or universal solvent dissolves the adhesive. The glue breaks down when you die, or when the duration ends. This glue has no effect while underwater or in environments that lack air.

Ad Misericordiam: You look so pitiful, whether you are wounded or not, that a creature that is about to attack you simply stops and cannot complete the task.

Arachnophobia: (Illusion/Phantasm) Upon casting this spell, the caster creates the illusion of thousands upon thousands of crawling spiders. If the target fails his save, they are so frightened that they cannot do anything except try to remove the spiders they believe are crawling all over their bodies. The DM could instead have the target flee for the duration.

Binding Snow: This causes the snow and slush beneath an enemy's feet to freeze and bind them, in a holding spell for the time allotted per gemstone rank. Even if it is just mud, or sand, she can cause it to freeze and hold.

Boneless: (Alteration) This horrifying spell allows the caster to turn all the bones in any one creature to jelly. The creature collapses into a helpless, heaving mass that is able to speak, breathe and perceive - but little else. Worn or carried items are not affected and fall around the creature. A boneless creature has DC10. When the spell expires, the creature returns to its normal form.

Briefly Visible: (Divination) Following the rules of a hold for duration, this spell causes creatures that are invisible or otherwise magically obscured to you, the caster, for as many rounds as allowed per your ranking. This does not reveal to you secret doors or hidden traps, only creatures that are magically hidden to become visible to you, and you alone.

Burdened: You fill a creature's mind with the realization of its earthly weight and responsibilities. Disheartened and wearied by these thoughts, the creature gains heavy encumbrance and is unable to fly (if already flying, it must land as soon as possible) for the duration of the hold.

Congeal Time: (Chronomancy) The chronomancer is able to slow down the temporal fabric of a target, causing them to slow down so much that they cannot make an attack for as many rounds as indicated by rank.

Crystal Rhythms: (Enchantment/Charm) Unless the target makes his save, the target's ears are filled with the sound of crystal chimes that no one else can hear. The creature immediately drops anything in his hands and begins clapping, so it cannot use it's hands for anything else. Only creatures with hands are affected, creatures with more than one pair of hands claps along with as many hands as it has.

Daze: (Enchantment/Mind Effect) Your target's mind is clouded so that it takes no action. This is not considered a 'stun' but it does cause them to lose as many turns as per the chart by gemstone.

Deny Magic: You can cast an antimagic field around one target (or multiple, see AoE Holds) causing them to be unable to use any spells, or magical items for as many rounds as a hold allows.

Disable Construct: (Transmutation) This spell causes a construct to be held, as you send a pulse into the target, interfering with the magic that gives it life.

Eldritch Enemy: (Abjuration [force]) This spell creates a band of force loosely circling the target. Whenever the target begins to cast a spell, the band contracts sharply, forcing a save in order to finish casting the spell. This lasts for as many rounds as a hold allows per rank.

Finger Vines: (Transmutation) Your fingers transform into strong, flexible, prehensile vines that you can extend to a length of 20 feet and retract at will. You can grab a creature or item with the vines. A creature grabbed is treated as if entangled. You can pull a grabbed creature or object toward you (DM may require a STR check).

Freezing Glance: Your eyes become wintry tombs that destroy the spark of life in those who you meet your stare. Failing their save freezes them in place for the duration of the spell.

Gloomcloud: (Enchantment [mind-effect]) A gloomy cloud appears over a creature that becomes despaired and succumbs to apathy, leaving it little more than helpless. Gloomcloud creates a small, gray cloud over the creature’s head. Only the creature affected by the cloud can see it and it moves with the creature. The despair caused by the gloomcloud is so profound that the victim can do nothing but walk slowly, sit silently, or weep in frustration.

Heart of Bedlam: You gain control of one enemy for as many rounds as allowed, and can force them to make an action of your choice.

Hideous Laughter: (Enchantment/Mind Effect) This spell causes your target to erupt in uncontrollable laughter. The target collapses into gales of manic laughter, falling prone. The subject can take no actions while laughing.

Hold: (Enchantment/Mind Effect) The subject becomes paralyzed and freezes in place. It is aware and breathes normally but cannot take any actions, even speech.

Hostile Levitation: This causes your target to levitate off the ground, removing solid footing and causing them to be unable to make attacks.

Hyperbolic Asymptote: (Geometry) As an enemy approaches, you call into mind the idea of the asymptote - a function that creates an infinity the closer it draws to zero. You will the space around you to take on these properties - and suddenly, approaching you, if but for a moment, requires infinite energy. However, moving collapses the spacial waveform, and thus, tolerates no movement more extreme than simple arm passes. While being held, your enemy simply cannot get close enough to you to advance an attack.

Inescapable Swarm: This spell causes the target to feel as if thousands of ants, spiders, locusts and other insects were crawling over their flesh as if caught in the heart of a swarm. If they pass their save, they recognize it as unreal. If you fail, they are overwhelmed by the inescapable barrage of grotesque sensations causing them to lose as many turns as allowed by caster rank.

Momento Vixisti: You make a single melee attack. Your strike must hit a being that was formerly alive (whether now undead, deathless, a construct, etc.) If the being fails their save, the details of its past life come rushing back to it. It becomes briefly overwhelmed by the emotion and becomes aware of the mockery of what it once was. The target is stunned (this is an exception to the normal rules that might make such a creature immune to stunning).

None Truly Control the Dead: Your attack causes the target to lose control of any undead that it is controlling for the duration of a hold.

Peaceful Weapon: (Evocation) You surround a normal weapon (not a natural weapon) with a field of magical energy that makes it impossible for the weapon to inflict damage in any way. No matter who uses the weapon, it cannot hurt anyone or anything. It cannot even sever rope or fell a tree, for the duration of the hold.

Sand Slumber: (Enchantment/Charm) This spell causes a magical sleep to come upon a single, living being of any species, provided the individual normally needs to sleep. The spell does not effect undead creatures or constructs. When used, the creature falls down in slumber, the fall never awakens the creature but any subsequent violent impact or attack WILL awaken the creature.

Shadow Anchor: (Illusion [shadow]) You tether the creature by it's own shadow to the spot where they are currently located.

Stone Sleep: (Enchantment/Charm) This forces one creature made of earth or stone, as well as any creature from the elemental plane of earth, into a state of dormancy for the time allowed. The creature stops in its tracks, moving and attacking no further. The creature is aware of everything around it. This spell affects creatures like earth elementals, clay and stone golems but the DM may rule that other creatures related to earth are affected as well such as basilisks, stone giants, rust monsters.

Amber and Sapphire: 1 round [3 NPCs]
Emerald and Ruby: 1 rounds [4 NPCs]

Diamond: 1 round no save, 1 round with save [6 NPCs]

Aquatic Entangle: This spell is an aquatic version of the entangling vegetation spell. It calls forth sea grasses and seaweed to snare swimmers and underwater travelers. Small ships can also be caught in the area of effect, per the DM permission. Any ship caught must be smaller than 30 ft. in length.

Black Tentacles: (Conjuration) This spell causes a field of rubbery black tentacles to appear, burrowing up from the floor and reaching for any creature in the area, holding them for the duration of time or they pass their spell save.

Cloak of Dreams: (Enchantment/Mind Effect) You are surrounded by a soporific aroma that causes targeted living creatures within range to fall asleep if they fail their save. Sleeping creatures are helpless, but are awakened if they are attacked.

Entangling Vegetation: This can be for one target, or AoE. The vegetation in the area, whatever that might be, entangles them and holds them for the allowed duration.

Fearful Ogre: (Conjuration/Summoning) When the spellcaster casts this spell, a hissing veil of odd colored vapors shoots upward. From behind this screen of clashing, misty smoke steps an ogre-like creature of obscene bulk and hideous visage. Those who fail their save spend a round (or 2 if rank allows) trembling in fear, and if DM wishes they can even flee for those rounds. Those who pass the save have enough courage to remain. While it appears fearsome, the ogre is but a wraith-like creature with no form or substance.

Frosty Nova: This burst of snow affects as many targets as allowed, slowing them until they come to a full stop and are held for the rounds allowed.

Mass Crystal Rhythms: (Enchantment/Charm) Unless the targets makes their save, their ears are filled with the sound of crystal chimes that no one else can hear.

Only creatures with hands are affected, creatures with more than one pair of hands claps along with as many hands as it has.

Mass Hold: (Enchantment/Mind Effect) The subjects become paralyzed and freeze in place. They are aware and breathe normally but cannot take any actions, even speech.

*Combat Effects

Rounds (if applicable)

Emerald and Ruby: Range 200ft
Obsidian: Range 250ft
Diamond: Range 300 ft

Align Weapon: (Transmutation) Your target weapon becomes lawful, chaotic, evil or good for one combat. This can bypass some creature's damage reduction.

Anchored Step: (Transmutation) Powerful tendrils grow out of the bottom of your feet or footwear, partially anchoring you to the ground and making it more difficult for others to move you against your will. These tendrils dig into any surface, but leave no trace of your passing. You may use this spell to resist any one bull rush, overrun, pull, push, reposition, or trip, as well as any other effect that would move you from your current position (such as being swallowed whole) or knock you prone. The tendrils slow your movement, however; your speed is reduced by 10 feet. This spell has no effect if you are moving without touching the ground (climbing, flying, swimming, and so on).

Anticipate Peril: (Divination) A creature affected by anticipate peril gains a preternatural sense of danger. This allows you to place yourself or your target as first on the scoreboard for one combat.

Argentum Scourge: This causes one weapon to be considered silver for one full combat.

Channel Stench (Conjuration [air]) You draw in a deep breath and expel it towards your opponents. Noxious odors are channeled through your breath and ejected in a vile cone of stench. All breathing creatures within the cone must make an Endurance save instead of a Willpower save against this spell's DC. Those who fail become nauseated for 1d3 rounds. Those who succeed instead become sickened for 1d3 rounds. Creatures of a higher gemstone rank than the caster are immune to this effect.
Nauseated: -2 to all rolls
Sickened: -4 to all rolls

Deathwatch: (Necromancy) Using the powers of necromancy, you can determine the condition of creatures near death within the spell's range. You instantly know whether each creature within the area is dead, fragile (alive and wounded, with 5 or fewer hit points left), fighting off death (alive with 6 or more hit points), healthy, undead, or neither alive nor dead (such as a construct). Deathwatch sees through any spell or skill that allows creatures to feign death.

Damp Powder: (Transmutation) This spell causes ammunition already loaded into the target firearm to be ruined with moisture (unless they have the enchant "Dry Load"). Any attempt to fire that ammunition fails, and the user must then take a full round to clear the weapon before reloading and firing it. If aware of this spell’s effect prior to firing the altered ammunition, the firearm’s user can spend a full action to clear the altered ammunition from the firearm.

Dawdle: (Enchantment/Mind Effect) A creature affected by dawdle causes it to be moved to the very end of the scoreboard for one combat.

Deep Delving: (Alteration [water]) This changes the environment underwater for the caster and allies. Allies are able to breathe water, and they are able to move and see enabling combat while underwater without needing checks to do so.

Distressing Tone: You create a powerful tone that vibrates living flesh. Your target must save or gain the sickened condition.

Eradicate Invisibility:  (Psychokinesis) You radiate a psychokinetic burst that disrupts and negates all types of invisibility for one round of combat. Any creature that fails its save to avoid the effect loses its invisibility.

Flatland's Abstraction: (Geometry) Though the world may exist in three dimensions, a strange quirk of its existence forces it to be represented by only two when the gods play with it. With this stance, you can view the world as the gods do, and force the weave of reality to pull all creatures to the same vertical zone. Any creature that thinks it can stay above you and remain safe from your attacks is in for a nasty shock. Within the range allowed, you treat everything as being on the same elevation that you are in for one combat.

Illuminated Weapon: (Evocation [good]) You make a weapon particularly useful against undead opponents by infusing it with magical daylight.

Isolate: You cause the target to become invisible and silent, but only to his allies. Any creature with an attitude of indifferent or worse toward the target, and any creature that wishes the target harm, can see the target normally. The target can see and hear himself, but any effect that requires allies to see or hear the target does not function. An ally that can see invisible creatures or has true seeing can both see and hear the target of isolate. You may isolate a target for as many rounds as your gemstone ranks.

Keen Edge: (Transmutation) This spell makes a weapon magically keen, improving its ability to deal telling blows. This transmutation doubles the threat range of the weapon. A threat range of 20 becomes 19–20, a threat range of 19–20 becomes 17–20. This can only be cast on piercing or slashing weapons.

Slime Harden: (Transmutation) You cause the outer surface of the target ooze to harden negating an ooze's engulf and split special abilities.

Polyhedron Alteration: (Geometry) There is a theory the universe is composed of many sided polyhedron shapes. By altering these shapes, we should be able to alter the outcome of reality. We call it the d20 Principle. Whenever there is a roll (NOT a d20 roll) you can interrupt before the die is rolled and replace all the dice with a die one size smaller or larger. For instance, you could use this so that your sword which is 1d6 rolls a 1d8. Or an enemy is rolling a 3d6 damage, you could make it a 3d4. It increases or decreases by 2 with the max being d20.

Rain of White Tulips: Tulips imbued with holy divine energy fall from the sky, causing all allies weapons to attack as if "holy".

Real Number Understanding: (Geometry) The real numbers are so vast that they exceed the size of the natural numbers and the integers even in the small space between zero and one. This huge vastness conceals so many possibilities that it is very difficult to imagine, and thus, the real numbers are the last to be taught to aspiring Infinite Lotus disciples. Those who have come to grips with this set of numbers are formidable enemies indeed, for they can draw upon the infinite realities reflected in these numbers to make their abilities realign the universe to bypass such trifling things as a mindless enemy's inability to comprehend the corrosive logic of their arguments. While maintaining this stance, you can affect mindless creatures, or creatures immune to mind-affecting abilities, with your mind-affecting abilities as if they weren't mindless or immune. This lasts for one combat.

Rest Eternal: (Necromancy) You place a curse upon a dead creature that bars its spirit from returning. Anyone casting a spell that would communicate with the dead creature, return it to life, or turn it into an undead creature must pass a spell save. Rest eternal cannot be dispelled, but it can be negated with remove curse or break enchantment. This cannot be used on PC's except by their player's permission.

Revenance: (Necromancy) This spell allows a caster to make one undead creature per gemstone rank immune to one turn attempt by any priests, paladins, etc with the ability to turn undead. Once the attempt has been blunted by this spell, the protection ends for that creature.

Slumberward: (Abjuration) This spell protects one creature against drowsiness, weariness and similar conditions caused by magic, particularly sleep magics caused by enchantment/charm. This lasts for one full adventure.

Spell Matrix: Outside of combat, cast this spell to store up to two spells to be released later without taking up a round of combat, or using up a spell slot during combat. You may release either of these spells during combat, but only one may be released during any one combat. When this spell is cast, you immediately take 2d6 un-defendable damage that cannot be healed until both spells in the spell matrix are released.
You must be Ruby Ranked to take this spell.

Spell Turn: This spell stops a non-damaging regged spell (such as a Hold, or a Weaken) in its tracks, and turns the arcane energy right back to the caster, causing them to be hit with the spell instead. The new target must pass the spell save of the original caster or suffer the effects.

An absorb spell lasts until you (or target) is attacked successfully. I.E. If you have an absorb of 11 DMG, and you are attacked for 20 DMG, you first subtract the absorb from the amount 20-11=9. Then, you may use any defenses you own for that final damage.

Bonechilling Wind Guard: (Cold) You summon the winds of the glacier to protect you, and they heed your call, surrounding you with whipping cold winds and shards of ice

Bullet Ward: (Abjuration) You toss several adamantine bullets into the air, which then hover protectively nearby and intercept firearm attacks targeting you. When an opponent takes a shot at you with a firearm, a hovering bullet attempts to block the attack. Doing this destroys the adamantine bullet.

Coat of Mists: (Conjuration [water]) Spilling the contents of your waterskin, you watch as mists rise from the ground where the water lands. The mist coalesces around your target, enveloping it in a bluish shroud. This magical mist absorbs damage from fire-based damage only.

Cushioning Bands: (Conjuration [force]) Invisible bands of force encircle vital areas of the target, taking a certain amount of damage before it disappears.

Energy Protection: (Abjuration) Protection from energy grants defense against the type of energy you specify when you cast it (acid, cold, electricity, fire, shadow or sonic). It absorbs damage from the type of element you've chosen, per the chart.

Force Skin: (Evocation) Force Skin weaves a protective layer of invisible force around the casters skin, that absorbs damage.

Guardian Mote: (Conjuration) You call into existence a vaguely shaped, shadowy mote that is about 1 inch high. The mote is silent and amorphous in shape and leaps to interpose attacks. It places itself between you and the most apparent danger (but not attacks you are unaware of). This magical guardian mote blocks damage from the next successful attack made against you, absorbing damage as it protects you.

Halo of Shelter: (Abjuration [good]) You create a halo around a subject that absorbs damage. The target glows with divine energy that illuminates a 5 foot radius while it is in effect.

Rainbow Shield: (Abjuration/Evocation) This spell envelops the caster or a touched and willing recipient in a glowing aura of swirling colors. Though the hues are ever-shifting, the overall color of the aura corresponds to the caster's mood (purple for despair, yellow for nausea, red for anger, black for pain, blue for happiness, green for affection and friendliness, and white for pride, exultation or manifesting magical power). Though it has been used to impress gullible observers it's true purpose is for defense, and when it has taken the max allowed damage it disappears.

Second Defense: (Conjuration) This spell creates an invisible but tangible force effect that protects the target by absorbing incoming damage.

Shadow Shield: (Alteration [shadow]) This spell imbues a creature's shadow with defensive magic, causing it to absorb damage when the target is attacked.

*Negate Defenses
A negate defense spell takes away the opponent's ability to use mundane defenses (armor, shield, gauntlets, etc. NOT defensive skills). There are a few negate defense spells that negate magical defense as well, they are labeled clearly.
Save: Yes

Crystal and Topaz: 1 round
Amber and Sapphire: 2 rounds
Emerald and Ruby: 3 rounds
Obsidian: 4 rounds
Diamond: 5 rounds

Blood Ripper: With a swipe of her hands, she pulls the blood out of a target's body from their very pores, mouth, ears, nose and causes it to leak out of their armor, showing where all the weakened spots are in their mundane armor allowing for defenses to be negated as everyone can see just where the best spots are to attack. This negates defense on one target per the rank chart.

Badger's Ferocity: (Transmutation) This spell can be cast on one weapon, enabling it to be sharper, harder, more ferocious allowing it to cut through or bypass any mundane defenses the target may have for as many rounds as allowed.

Defenseless: This spell fills the target with the inability to focus on their own defenses. While they can attack normally, they are blind to any gaps in their protection and do nothing to protect themselves from attacks.

Erode Defenses: Your spell begins to eat away at all of the defenses of your target, mundane and magic.

Flaying Strike: You tear the skin, negating your target's natural and unarmed defenses.

Named Bullet/Arrow/Bolt: (Divination) You imbue one bullet, arrow or bolt with power and accuracy against one creature type (and subtype for humanoids or outsiders). This ammunition negates mundane defenses of the targeted creature.

Spirit of Grief's Shadow: The mystic calls upon grieving spirits to share their pain and sorrow with her enemies, these unconsolable spirits tug and pull at the target, for the duration allowed, causing their magical defenses and any unarmed tech defenses to fail.

*AoE Negate Defenses
A negate defense spell takes away the opponent's ability to use mundane defenses (armor, shield, gauntlets, etc. NOT defensive skills). There are a few negate defense spells that negate magical defense as well, they are labeled clearly.

Blood Red Mist: A red mist appears upon the field of battle, settling on your enemies bodies and armor, and causes their mundane defenses to fail.

Freeze Armor: This spell can be against one target, or multiple targets, and locks up armor and equipment into a layer of ice and extreme cold, negating their mundane defense until the ice melts.

Maggot Infestation: This is a far more terrible way to locate the weak points of defense in her enemies, but nonetheless quite effective. With a motion of her hands to the targets, a creature is infested with maggots across their body. The small creatures begin to writhe and wiggle attempting to free themselves, and crawl out of their armor at all the weak points where they can get free. This shows everyone where the weakened areas are, so that mundane defenses are negated per the rank chart for number of targets and how many rounds.

*Evades
Evades allow you to take less damage from one attack, or even evade damage altogether.
Save: No

Crystal and Topaz: Evade 1/4 Dmg

Darting Duplicate: An illusory duplicate of you steps clumsily into an adjacent square, presenting a tempting target before winking out of existence. This duplicate takes some or all of the attack meant for you.

Erastosthenes' Sieve Defense: (Geometry) Erastosthenes came up with a simple meditation to improve concentration that focused on mentally eliminating successive prime multiples until only the prime numbers remained. Surprisingly, this method gave those that could master it (performing the 'sieve' to 10 million or more) the strange and intermittent ability to simply ignore magic directed at them. Eratosthenes never came to any conclusion as to why this was the case - and the Infinite Lotus disciples who were asked simply laughed and pointed all around them. This allows you to evade one spell, regged or otherwise, or spell-like attack.

Frost Breath: The caster breathes out a thick, frosty cold breath of pure freezing ice, causing the incoming weapon or attack to slow considerably, doing less damage than it would have normally.

Howling Gust: A gust of howling wind encircles your target, moving them physically out of the way of an incoming attack.

Prescient Evasion: The mystic knows just enough of what is about to happen to get out of the way of an incoming attack.

Repulsion: (Abjuration [force]) This spell causes a creature heading towards the mage with an intended attack to move directly away from his person, evading all damage. [Available at Emerald, Ruby, Obsidian, Diamond]

Shield of Bone: A ring of ghostly fog swirls in front of the target. With a swirl, the fog dissipates, leaving behind a shield of human bones. The attack made upon the target is stopped by this bony shield, allowing her to evade as much damage as allowed by the rank chart.

Smoky Form: (Alteration) This spell changes the target and all he carries into a cloudy mass of smoke. This evades some or all damage, unless the attacker can hit incorporeal.

Stoneskin: (Abjuration) The warded creature gains resistance to blows, cuts, stabs, and slashes allowing them to evade some (or all) ranged or melee damage.

Spellcrash: (Abjuration) You create a discordant blast of energy that disrupts the target's magical attack, evading some (or all) of the damage.

Temporal Buffer: (Chronomancy) The chronomancer can remove himself from the timestream, only to reappear later in the same state and location. To outsiders, the mage appears to vanish into thin air for a few seconds to a few minutes, enabling them to evade an attack.

He can change a human to look like an elf, a wolf to look like a domestic dog, a freckled faced girl into a haggard old woman, or cover a cow's hide with purple spots, for instance.

*Note: Most dual spells should be cast in combat, but there may be some that can be outside.
*Remember that all holds are given a save EVERY ROUND.

DAMAGE/TRAIT DEBUFF
Bee Sting: (Conjuration) This spell strikes its targets with a nasty sting, as if from a very large bee. Each bee sting inflicts piercing damage, as if from a magical weapon for the purposes of overcoming damage reduction. If this damage is not somehow completely defended against, the subject is poisoned with weak venom that debuffs their Endurance Trait until a Cure Poison is obtained.

Any physical attack against the target automatically adds bleed damage as DoT (damage over time).

You cannot heal more than the damage that would be inflicted.) Excess points have special effects: an excess of 5 points cures the injured creature of disease. An excess of 7 points cures the injured creature of poison. An excess of 12 points cures both.

Skill Effects
Skill effects are effect spells that mimic skills that we already have in place. While we do allow mages some leeway in writing these type of spells, there are some limits and the DM always has final say if they allow you to use these spells without having the actual skill, or in cases like Remove Curse some items may simple not be able to have the curse removed.
Save: Not usually, unless resistant for some reason.
Duration: Depends, some are instantaneous (such as a remove curse), and some last one adventure (such as darkvision or endure elements). If your skill effect spell doesn't fit with any of the above, then use the range/duration chart for flavor effects.

Abeyance: This spell suppresses the effects of a single curse on a creature for the duration allowed. It does not restore any damage or drain that might have been caused by the curse. Abeyance cannot suppress curses that cannot be removed by remove curse. An individual curse can be suppressed only once by abeyance, even if cast by a different caster. Abeyance does not allow a creature to divest itself of cursed objects, though it can suppress a curse contracted from an object, if the DM allows.

Absorbing Touch: (Transmutation) You absorb one object that your hand touches into your body. You can absorb any nonmagical, nonliving object weighing no more than 1 pound per gemstone level. A container and its contents count as a single object. Objects in the possession of another creature receive a save to prevent absorption. This is a non-combat spell. An absorbed object melds with your hand. If you dismiss the spell, the item appears in the hand that absorbed it, or falls to the ground if that hand is full. Multiple castings let you absorb additional items, but you can only store a single item per hand.

Alchemical Allocation: This spell causes a pale aura to emanate from your mouth. If you consume a potion or elixir following the casting of this spell, you can spit it back into its container immediately so that it can be used again. You gain all the benefits of the potion or elixir, but it is not consumed. You can only gain the benefits of one potion or elixir at a time, per each casting of this spell. If this is used in combat, the casting of this spell and drinking of the potion uses your turn of combat even if you have a skill that says otherwise.

Alter Instrument: By using this spell, the caster can transform one musical instrument into another of similar
 size and equal value. Any hand-held instrument can be altered into any other hand-held instrument. However, in order to obtain a large instrument, such as a base harp, organ, or any other instrument that is too large or heavy to be easily carried, the spellcaster must start with an equally large instrument.

Anonymous Interaction: (Enchantment/Mind Effect) If your target fails it's save, you cause the target to forget all but the most general information about you. If they saw you or interacted with you, they still remember your presence and your general shape (such as humanoid), as well as the gist of your interactions with them (such as "She was asking about the queen"), but they don't remember specifically what you said, details of your appearance, or any identifying information about you. This spell targets any memories of you in the minute preceding its casting.

Aura of the Unremarkable: (Enchantment/Mind Effect) An invisible sphere of magic surrounds you, clouding the minds of creatures in the area so they regard even the strangest actions as innocuous. For example, if you and your allies are beating a city guard for information, creatures within the area do not think this is unusual or cause for alarm; if your ally is aiming a crossbow at the queen from a balcony, the affected creatures accept this as normal and unworthy of concern. Any hostile actions by you or your allies against a targeted creature break the effect of the spell for that creature. When the spell ends, observers see things normally but altered perceptions from the earlier events remain. Any mention of the events as noteworthy (such as being questioned about them by an authority figure) allows the target another save to break the effect and remember things normally.

Axiom of Choice: (Geometry, Chaos) In general, Infinite Lotus Disciples don't disagree - the truths of logic and mathematics do not hold up to variances of opinion. However, there are a few issues that divide even the staunchly logical. One such issue is the infamous axiom of choice - a matter of relatively surprising simplicity that has led to duels between high-profile practicioners of the Infinite Lotus in the past, and will likely to continue to do so in the future. Simply stated, the axiom of choice says that for any number of collections of objects, one object can always be chosen from each collection, even if the number of collections is unknown. Those martial adepts that accept the axiom of choice meditate on it whenever they are presented with a choice for which there is no easy solution - for the axiom will always yield a choice, if not always a good one. You may roll two d20's for any one d20 roll when this spell is used, and take the best one suited for the roll. If this is used in combat, it counts as one of your combat spells.

Axiom of Determinancy (Geometry, Law) Another highly-contentious point among the practitioners of the Infinite Lotus is the axiom of determinacy. Those who support it claim that in fact, everything has a perfect solution - no matter what this may be. The (many) detractors of this discipline claim that this idea is preposterous and that even if such a solution existed, it would be impossible to determine rapidly enough. However, this does not discourage the Infinite Lotus Disciples who choose this axiom making use of its amazing power. You may use this spell to take 15 for one d20 roll, without rolling at all. If this is used in combat, it counts as one of your combat spells.

Black Cairn: (Divination) A cold breeze carrying the scent of rotting flesh raises the hairs on your neck. Its direction reveals the direction of the corpse you seek if it is nearby. This spell allows helps you determine the direction of one specific corpse (animal or otherwise) within the spell’s radius. If the corpse is within range, you sense the direction to the corpse. You must have an item which belonged to or has been in contact with the corpse.

Break Enchantment: (Abjuration) This spell frees victims from enchantments and transmutations.

Breeze Lore: (Divination [air]) You inhale the air from the breeze, becoming attuned to the scents and flavors carried on it. Your sense of smell becomes keen – a new world of sensory impressions opens to you. You gain the scent ability allowing you to notice creatures by scent at a 30–foot distance (60 feet if downwind, 15 feet if upwind). In addition, you can track by scent for the duration allowed.

Cloak of Shade: (Abjuration) This spell provides the subject with some degree of protection from the harmful effects of the sun. The cloaked subject treats environmental heat due to sun exposure as one level less: severe heat is considered very hot conditions, while very hot is considered average temperature (DM information on heat levels). The spell does not, however, eliminate the effects of direct sunlight on creatures vulnerable to sunlight. Cloak of shade has no effect on environmental heat from sources other than the sun.

Create Handholds: You create a path of handholds on earthen, plaster, stone, or wooden walls. The handholds are created in pairs and are approximately 3 feet apart, located in a specific path indicated by your gestures while casting the spell. The handholds' path can span up to 30 feet out from you plus an additional 10 feet per gemstone level The handholds protrude approximately 6 inches from the wall, measure 10 inches lengthwise, and are perfectly suited for gripping with fingers or claws.

Cultural Adaptation: When casting this spell, you must concentrate on the culture to which you wish to adapt. If you speak the native language of the culture in question, then for the duration of this spell, you speak the language with a native accent. The spell does not teach you the language in question, but can be combined with a skill or spell that grants you the language. Your body language and gestures mark you as a native of the culture, and you unconsciously make small decisions that help you blend in.

Curse of Disgust: You place a curse upon a creature, causing it to avoid the sight of a specific trigger, which is a kind of creature, object, or condition designated by you. When the target is within 30 feet of a trigger and is aware of the trigger, it gains the sickened condition and feels an urge to leave. A successful save negates the urge to leave, but the sickened condition persists as long as the target is within 30 feet of a trigger and aware of it. Example triggers include beggars, filthy clothing, diseased creatures, the king, blood, spiders, rats, corpses, and sewage.

Curse of the Black Sands: [Transmutation] Oily black footprints appear in the earth and silt in which the creature you designate steps, causing the target to have a hard time covering his tracks. The prints are easily tracked and cannot be erased or destroyed until the spell duration expires. These tracks can be covered, but not by earth. A giant leaf, for example, could hide a few footprints, but this would be a temporary fix at best. The target does not leave these tracks if he flies, teleports, or climbs on a non–earthen surface (such as climbing through trees). In areas of silt or water, a black streak resembling a slow current will follow the cursed character whenever he is in contact with the surface.

Darkvision: (Transmutation) This grants you or your target darkvision up to 60 feet for the duration allowed.

Dead Man's Ink: When you cast this spell, you can remove an enchanted tattoo from a slain target and place it upon the skin of a willing subject, including, if you choose, yourself. You cannot use this spell to place an enchanted tattoo which requires an open magic item slot upon a creature which already has that slot occupied.

Discern Lie: The mage is able to determine if one target is lying through magical means and keen senses. If the target is resistant, then a saving throw is given. This does NOT force someone to tell the truth, it only allows you to know if they are telling a truth or lie.

Discern Next of Kin: (Divination/Mind Effect) You can scan the thoughts of one individual and learn the names and locations of the target's living relatives, as well as the attitude of the target toward those relatives (and vice versa). You learn about one relative per round you concentrate on the target. For example, you might learn the target's father's name, that the father lives on a nearby farm, and that the target and his father don't get along. Since this spell reads the target's mind, you can learn only what the target knows or believes.

Detect Secret Doors: You can detect secret doors, compartments, caches, and so forth. Only passages, doors, or openings that have been specifically constructed to escape detection are detected by this spell.

Detect Surface Thoughts: (Divination/Mind Effect) You detect surface thoughts of creatures in your spell range. Every intelligent creature in the area is allowed a Willpower save.

Dimension Door: (Conjuration) You instantly transfer yourself from your current location to any other spot within range. You always arrive at exactly the spot desired—whether by simply visualizing the area or by stating direction. You can bring one extra person with you per your gemstone rank, so at Crystal rank you could bring one extra person with you.

Dungeonsight: You receive a clear and memorable view of the layout of chambers, barriers, and connecting passages within the area of effect. This spell does not reveal the contents or inhabitants of any of these locations, only the basic architecture of the space. For example, a staircase leading up to a pair of doors would be apparent, but the iron golems guarding the doors would not. This spell does identify the locations of secret doors and hidden passages but gives no clue as to the means of opening or accessing them.

Dust of Twilight: A shower of iridescent black particles clings to and extinguishes torches, lanterns, sunrods, and similar mundane light sources in the area.

Elfsight: Gain low-light vision to 40 feet.

Equilibrium: You can adjust your body’s equilibrium to correspond with any solid or liquid that you stand on. Thus, you can walk on water, quicksand, or even a spider’s web without sinking or breaking through for one encounter.

Endure Elements: (Abjuration) A creature protected by endure elements suffers no harm from being in a hot or cold environment. It can exist comfortably in conditions between –50 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit without having to make Endurance saves. The creature's equipment is likewise protected. Endure elements doesn't provide any protection from fire or cold damage, nor does it protect against other environmental hazards such as smoke, lack of air, and so forth.

Fleshy Facade: The target's flesh fills out and gains a healthy, natural color. This gives the target the appearance of a living creature of the type it was when it was still alive (if applicable). If the undead has any features different from those of the type of living creature it most resembles (such as a ghoul's elongated teeth and claws), those features shrink and become less prominent. This spell has no effect on creatures that are skeletal or otherwise lack flesh.

Fly: (Transmutation) The subject can fly at a speed of 60 feet (or 40 feet if it wears medium or heavy armor, or if it carries a medium creature).

Gloves: (Evocation) This spell creates an invisible force field around the casters hands and up to 4 inches above the wrist or enchants one pair of leather gloves. The force field is weak but effectively blocks out all liquids allowing the caster to interact with liquids without getting wet or being affected by them. Thus acids, slimes, and various goos can be manipulated without incurring damage. The force-field is weak enough that anything sharp can penetrate the field and cause it to instantly dissipate.

Greensight: (Transmutation) Upon casting this spell, the recipient is empowered to see up to 60 feet through thick plant matter as though it were transparent. Leaves, vines, and greenery—even moss, lichen, and slime—offer no concealment to the recipient’s sight, though her vision still can be blocked by solid wood, as if from trees or wooden structures.

Hairline Fractures: (Transmutation [earth]) With a touch, you create temporary hairline fractures throughout a piece of stone or anything crafted of an earth type substance. This causes the DC of whatever you are attempting to shatter to be decreased by 1 for each gemstone rank of the caster.

Hallow: (Evocation [good]) Hallow makes a particular site, building, or structure a holy site. No dead bodies interred in hallowed ground can become undead. A hallowed site cannot be made unhallowed until the duration has been expended. Per the DM, this can be permanent.

Halt: (Evocation [force]) A sheet of invisible force materializes between the caster and the target creature, preventing it from drawing closer. The target is checked for the duration, although flying creatures are not moved backwards. If the target passes their spell save, they slip around the force and are unaffected by the spell. If combat ensues, the sheet disappears.

Hoarfrost: A cloud of ice-blue particles cover everyone and everything in the area, visibly outlining invisible things for the duration of the spell.

Identify Race: (Divination) This unusual spell provides the caster the name of the race of the target, along with a brief summary of it's abilities and creature's customs along with what it needs to survive.

Incompleteness Theorem: (Geometry) The Infinite Lotus Disciples have found a method of revealing that which is invisible - by forcing the universe to acknowledge that something is not complete, and thus causing it to respond by revealing such things. All invisible objects in the area become visible immediately for the duration allowed. If by chance this is used in combat, then they become visible as many rounds as a HOLD is allowed and this does take up one of your spells per combat.

Instant Audience:  (Conjuration / Bard) When this spell is cast, audience members  are magically conjured. Each round ld4 people enter the room or area in a normal manner. (They actually appear just outside the  room when no one is looking.) This continues for a number of rounds equal to the caster's gemstone level. The audience contains a combination of races, gender, and social class appropriate to the occasion. Instant audience members act in every way like any other members of the audience. They walk around during intermission, talk, eat snacks, and so on. However, they always evade questions about their past, their history,  or current events, as they have no past, no
 history, and have no idea as to what is going on in the world outside of the room. They are strictly non-combatant.

Integer Understanding: (Geometry) It is simple to extend the idea of the natural numbers to include zero, as well as negative numbers - for those who can move forward and back on a number line can imagine doing so backwards, into values that could not possibly exist in 'nature'. While this slight abstraction doesn't trouble any true Infinite Lotus disciple, nature itself rejects such a notion - allowing them to resist its influence over them. This produces an effect like 'endure elements".

Lily Pad Stride: Your every footstep creates aquatic plants capable of supporting your weight and that of any creature of your size or smaller that is following you. These lily pads only appear when you cross water or other liquids which do not immediately destroy plants. You can walk across these liquid surfaces without any fear of stumbling.

Magic Tailor: (Alteration) This spell alters the size and shape of a normal garment or piece of leather or cloth armor to fit the wearer. Metallic armor and magical armor cannot be altered with this spell. Magical garments can be altered if the owner makes a successful saving throw.

Murashia's Map: (Divination) Developed by a long-dead half-elf spellborn for whom this spell is named, this spell allows the caster to perceive a mental picture of four lights in darkness: one light is the caster, two lights are known places the caster has visited in a previous time (specified during casting), and the third is a chosen being. Viewing this mental map gives the caster a rough idea of the location of a being she seeks, and his or her direction and distance from the caster. If the being is at one of the chosen locations, the spell confirms this and gives great detail as to the subject's whereabouts: a hazy mental picture shows if the being is indoors or outdoors, above or below ground level, and moving or stationary. This can find any creature on the same plane as the caster, unless they are using magic to be hidden or psionic means of concealment.

Nondetection: The target of this spell becomes undetectable by divination spells such as scrying, location spells, and any skill or item that allows you to locate that creature for the allowed duration.

Object Reading: (Save: Per DM) Learn details about an object's previous owners, curses, enchantments and other things.
Emerald & Ruby: Learn all the owners, and even more information.
Obsidian & Diamdon: Learn everything possible to know about object.

Obscure Alignment: (Abjuration) This allows your alignment to remain undetectable for the duration allowed.

Open Sesame: With a burst of insight, you realize that the command word for the death ray is "fluffy kitten." If the target is a creature, you learn any passwords that the creature is waiting for you to speak. If the target is a magic item (or command word-controlled creature), you learn any command words that could activate the item or control the creature. This spell can only be used with DM approval, and with any limits the DM puts on it (such as only once per adventure) They can also ask for an opposed roll of their desire.

Perusal: You gain a brief but incomplete understanding of one book's contents, equivalent to having skimmed its pages for 1 hour. This insight is not sufficient to translate unknown languages, decipher codes, or memorize text, but it does allow the caster to learn what topics the book discusses— invaluable to an adventurer who must make a snap decision when performing research or deciding whether or not to abscond with a volume.

Rain of Red Roses: A rain of fragrant rose petals fall from the sky, causing any foul stench or sickening smell to fade.

Reality is but a Stream: (Geometry) One technique taught to more advanced disciples of the Infinite Lotus is that of 'streaming'. This gives them powerful principles which can, with prior logical consideration unique to each individual, be able to assess and work in any environment, regardless of the form that it takes. Although these techniques are applied in a wide variety of ways, one of the simplest is connected to the understanding that there are universal laws which are greater than any particular environment in which they occur. This allows its users to perform some feats that others would consider impossible - such as walking directly through a wall. When using this spell, your movement ignores all intervening terrain, such as rubble, trees or even walls, provided that the destination space is clear. You do not need to know where you are going, but if you end up in a space that cannot hold you, you are shunted back to where you started.

Remove Curse: (Abjuration) This spell removes a minor curse from one living creature, per DM approval.

Replay Scene: (Divination) This spell enables the caster to read the residual psychic impressions in a room or area. An especially unusual or violent event often leaves behind psychic vibrations that remain for years. The more important the event, the stronger the psychic residue and the longer the impressions last. When cast, the strongest impressions currently in the area enter the caster's mind. The replay is played in real time, so the replay takes as long to complete as the original event. It is crystal clear, so you can readily identify persons, creatures or objects. If it is cast over and over in the same area, it reads weaker and weaker impressions until all psychic residue in the area has been reviewed.

Sand Shroud: (Evocation [sand]) This spell causes sand or loose earth to open up under a target like a grave, and then swallow it up instantly. Enough sand or earth must be present - for example, the spell works in a desert setting or barren field, but not on cultivated land or solid rock. A target creature must be dead, or something that never has lived. Its size must be "large" or less. It is buried 60 feet deep, without any mark or trace on the surface of its grave. This is typically used to quickly hide treasure, or the evidence of a fatal fight.

Sands of Time: [Alteration] This spell is used by chronomancers to reverse the effects of aging and erosion on any nonliving, material object. The degree of aging that can be reversed is dependent on the rank of the caster. It is up to the DM how many years of aging have occurred to the object, but things like papyrus and wood disintegrate quicker than hard stone and metal. It only restores damage done by natural aging or erosion, and it does not recover any magical properties.
Crystal: 5 years
Topaz: 20 years
Amber: 100 years
Sapphire: 500 years
Emerald: 2,000 years
Ruby: 10,000 years
Obsidian: 50,000 years
Diamond: 100,000 years

Sand Whisper [Alteration [sand]) This spell causes silence in an area immediately surrounding a touched item or creature. All sounds emitted by the creature or item are muffled and are transmitted far away and emitted in a random location. If resistant, a save is required. Usually, this is used to muffle sounds from the party such as busting down a door, or a particularly rattling set of armor when sneaking is necessary.

Sargasso: (Alteration) This causes a mass of thick seaweed in a body of water, making it difficult to sail through. The approximate depth of the seaweed is five feet. The caster can create a 10x10 foot mass per gemstone rank. This diminishes the speed of the ship whether they are sailing or rowing. The area must be at least as big as half of the ship's length to affect it, a large ship may not be affected by a small sargasso region.

Seal Mouth: (Alteration, Enchantment/Charm) This causes a person to be unable to speak against the caster. A subject who fails their save is unable to say anything that he believes to be insulting, critical or otherwise defamatory about the caster. If he tries, his lips seal shut and no words come out. This lasts for 5 minutes per gemstone rank of the caster, but a Remove Curse can be used to remove it before the duration is ended.

Seek Teleporter: (Divination) This spell allows the caster to discern the exact location of one individual who has used teleport, dimension door, or shadow walk within the last five minutes. It can also be used to follow, if the caster has a skill that allows teleportation of some sort. The caster must be within 90 feet of the place from which the other individual vanished. If you simply divine the creature's location it will tell you exactly where they went in relations to the point of departure (such as "800 feet directly south") but not conditions at the spot. To follow, you and your allies are instantly transported to the traveler's destination.

Shadow Blink: (Alteration, Illusion/Phantasm) You must have "Shadow Walk" skill to use this spell. This spell is a limited form of teleportation, allowing the caster to blink instantaneously from shadow to shadow. The shadows must be within 60 yards of each other, and must be large enough to hold the caster. You can only blink to shadows you can see, within range, and you can blink with up to 250lbs in encumbrance.

Shadow Scry: (Divination) This allows the caster to use a shadow as a scrying device in one's home or business. The shadow must be in the line of sight, and no more than 10 yards distant. Once the spell is cast, the caster can contact another shadow in their home or business and see out of it as if they were standing within that shadow, regardless of the shadow's size or shape. The caster can see everything within sight from the contacted shadow, including the passage of invisible creatures and all normal visual capabilities function normally. Shadows outside the caster's home or business cannot be reached in this way. The caster can switch shadows as she wishes to inspect different areas.

Shared Stomach: (Conjuration) For the duration of this spell, the two targets effectively share a single stomach. As long as they remain on the same plane, both targets are satisfied by any food consumed by either, and any potion consumed by one affects the other as well. In addition, any disease or poison ingested by one affects both targets, though they roll individually to resist the effects. The effects of anything consumed can continue after this spell ends.

Skate: You, another willing creature, or an unattended object can slide along solid ground as if on smooth ice. If you manifest skate on yourself or another creature, the subject of the power retains equilibrium by mental desire alone, allowing her to gracefully skate along the ground, turn, or stop suddenly as desired. This allows you to forego making any skills that pertain to movement for one encounter.

Snowsight: The subject gains the ability to see to the normal limits of its vision even in whiteout conditions, and ignores all penalties due to snow glare and snow blindness. This basically gives normal sight, in wintry conditions.

Speak Language: (Divination) You are able to comprehend one chosen language at time of casting, allowing you to speak the language, but not read it.

Trade Wind: (Conjuration [air]) You summon favorable winds for one seagoing vessel, causing a becalmed ship to have a typical amount of wind, and a seagoing ship to have winds that are easily negotiated. The ship’s hourly and daily travel rate increases by 25%. This has no effect on the ship’s tactical (per-round) movement. You cannot reduce the damaging effects of a storm, but you do negate its effect on a ship’s travel speed. Alternatively you can cast this spell on one creature. The spell increases the speed of a creature that already can fly by 10 feet.

Transcendental Geometry Realization: (Geometry) Although geometry isn't something that is heavily studied by Infinite Lotus Disciples past a certain point in their training, it still holds several mysteries for those who persevere. Through contemplation of mathematical transformations and how they can be applied to three-dimensional and two-dimensional space, an Infinite Lotus Disciple of sufficient proficiency can simply alter their personal direction of 'down' in a way to enable flight.

Unhallow: (Evocation [evil]) Unhallow makes a particular site, building, or structure an unholy site. An unhallowed site cannot be made hallow until the duration has been expended. Per the DM, this can be permanent.

Water Breathing: (Transmutation) The target is able to breathe underwater for the duration allowed.

Wings: (Alteration [air]) This spell allows the caster to gift a creature otherwise unable to fly with a pair of usable wings. The wings always sprout from the creature's back, and the spell imparts the natural know-how to use them. The caster must choose from the following wing type: Butterfly, Dragon, Dragonfly, Eagle, Hummingbird.

---

Flavor Effects
Flavor effects are just what they are called - flavor for your roleplay. These are spells that do not play a huge part in the direction of a quest or adventure, though in all things the DM does have final say. Flavor effect spells are things such as a butler to clean your home, a mount to ride, etc.
Save: No, unless resistant for some reason.

Absorbing Inhalation: (Transmutation [air]) You grant your lungs inhuman strength and capacity, allowing you to harmlessly and completely inhale one gas, fog, smoke, mist, or similar cloud-like effect. Inhaling the cloud removes it from the area, leaving normal air in its place. If the cloud is too large for you to affect with a single casting of this spell, you may instead inhale a portion of the cloud, but you must inhale the portion of the cloud closest to you. This spell has no effect on gaseous creatures. While inhaled, the cloud does not harm you. You may keep the cloud harmlessly contained within you for up to 1 round per gemstone level, but you must hold your breath to do so (even if you do not normally have to breathe).

Abstemiousness: (Transmutation) This spell magically enhances a handful of simple food, imbuing it with enough nutrition to satisfy a Medium or smaller creature for a full day. The spell does not create food, and thus will not alone prevent someone from starving, but it can extend even limited reserves for lengthy periods.

Beanstalk: This causes a large beanstalk to rise up from the ground. It is strong enough to support Large or smaller creatures and has enough handholds and footholds that it can be climbed as if it were knotted rope. At the end of the spell's duration, the beanstalk withers and dies at an accelerated rate, leaving nothing more than a pile of compost.

Bed of Iron: This spell makes even the clunkiest armor feel soft as silk to the wearer. The subject of this spell is able to sleep comfortably in medium or heavy armor without suffering from fatigue the following day.

Brightmatter: (Conjuration [light]) You create a luminous mass of ectoplasm that generates bright light in a 20-foot radius and shadowy light in a 40-foot radius. The mass is sticky and pliable, and can adhere to inanimate objects, walls, ceilings, floors, and so on. You can divide the brightmatter into smaller separate pieces, but doing so reduces the amount of light that each piece sheds. Brightmatter does not shed heat.
    1 piece: 20ft bright, 40ft shadowy
    2 pieces: 15ft bright, 30ft shadowy
    3 pieces: 10ft bright, 20ft shadowy
    4 pieces: 5ft bright, 10ft shadowy

Bubbling Buoyancy: (Alteration) This spell allows normally non-bouyant objects to float upon a layer of small crystal bubbles filled with air. Up to 100lbs of matter per gemstone rank of the caster can be made to float, including gold, lead, stone or living creatures. A sunken object can be raised to the surface if the object is within the spell's range.

Carry Companion: You touch an animal or magical beast that has a helpful attitude toward you, instantly transforming the creature into a miniature figurine of stone, small enough to fit into the palm of your hand. Creatures with an attitude of less than helpful will not tolerate this spell, and it automatically fails to work on them. An intelligent animal or magical beast must be a willing subject in order for this spell to take effect. Any items that the creature wears (such as a harness or saddle) or carries (such as those stowed in saddlebags) are transformed along with the creature.

Clandestine Conversation: (Illusion) The targets can converse without anyone overhearing what they are saying. Creatures who can read lips might still be able to determine what is said, but no Perception check can possibly allow one to overhear the conversation. While under the effect of this spell, a target creature can speak to someone not affected by this spell, but everyone can hear that conversation normally. Only when one target creature speaks to the other target creature does the conversation remain private.

Codespeak: Upon casting this spell, all recipients gain the ability to speak a new language. This language sounds like random, babbling syllables to anyone not under the influence of the spell, but the targets understand each other perfectly. Anyone using codespeak can read and write in this new language as well. Once the spell expires, however, any coded writing suddenly appears as gibberish. If the same individuals become the targets of a codespeak spell again, cast by the same caster, they can once again read any coded writings. Comprehend languages does not enable a caster to understand the language of another’s codespeak spell, but it does reveal that the targets are speaking a magical language.

Continual Flame: (Evocation [light]) A flame, equivalent in brightness to a torch, springs forth from an object that you touch. The effect looks like a regular flame, but it creates no heat and doesn't use oxygen. A continual flame can be covered and hidden but not smothered or quenched.

Decompose Corpse: (Necromancy) Using this spell, the caster rapidly decomposes the flesh from a single corpse of size Huge or smaller, leaving behind a perfectly cleaned skeleton. Decomposed corpses cannot be resurrected except by using a skill such as "True Resurrection".

Determine Depth: (Divination) With a touch, you can determine the exact thickness of a wall, ceiling, or other solid barrier, measuring from the point you are touching to the direct opposite side of the barrier in a straight line. You can only detect depths or widths of up to 10 feet per gemstone level; amounts in excess of this limit are detected as being the maximum you are able to detect. So, for example, an Amber level mage using this spell on a 60-foot-thick wall would detect that the wall is 30 feet thick. Determine depth can be used on earthen, plaster, stone, or wooden surfaces, but not on walls made of metal or other, harder materials. This spell is useful to casters who want to get an idea of their surroundings, and as a preliminary measure to casting spells such as passwall or dimension door.

Divining Rod: (Divination) You call upon the spirits of the woodland to guide you to water, natural shelter, or food. By casting divining rod upon a forked stick, you request simple knowledge from the nature spirits to lead you to water, natural shelter or grown food. The rod points in the direction of the objective of the spell. The rod does not necessarily lead you past dangers or obstacles, just in a direct path to the requested necessity. The rod may sense the location only if the objective is within the radius of the spell. The rod reveals nothing else. Divining rod may only direct to uncultivated palatable vegetation if provisions are requested. The rod detects water underground only if the source is within 10 ft. of the surface.

Faithful Hound: (Conjuration/Summoning) You summon a phantom watchdog that only the caster can see. You can then command it to perform as guardian of a passage, room, door or similar space or portal. The phantom watchdog commences barking loudly if any creature larger than a cat approaches the place it guards. The hound can detect invisible and ethereal creatures, and does not react to illusions.

Floating Disk: (Evocation [force]) You create a slightly concave, circular plane of force that follows you about and carries loads for you. The disk is 3 feet in diameter and 1 inch deep at its center. It can hold 100 pounds of weight per gemstone level. (If used to transport a liquid, its capacity is 2 gallons.) The disk floats approximately 3 feet above the ground at all times and remains level. It floats along horizontally within spell range and will accompany you at a rate of no more than your normal speed each round. If not otherwise directed, it maintains a constant interval of 5 feet between itself and you.

Force Ladder: This spell creates a 60ft immobile ladder of Force.

Glimpse Past the Barrier: (Chronomancy) This spell allows the caster to see through any barrier or boundary within 60 ft. so long as the barrier or obstruction was clear at some time in the past. Essentially, the caster sees through the door or barrier when it was open, shifting his senses back to the present on the other side.

Helping Hand: You create the ghostly image of a hand, which you can send to find a creature within 5 miles. The hand then beckons to that creature and leads it to you if the creature is willing to follow. When the spell is cast, you specify a person (or any creature) by physical description, which can include race, gender, and appearance but not ambiguous factors such as level, alignment, or class. When the description is done, the hand streaks off in search of a subject that fits the description. Once the hand locates the subject, it beckons the creature to follow it. If the subject does so, the hand points in your direction, indicating the most direct, feasible route. The hand hovers 10 feet in front of the subject, moving as it leads the subject back to you, then it disappears. The subject is not compelled to follow the hand or act in any particular way toward you. If the subject chooses not to follow, the hand continues to beckon for the duration of the spell, then disappears. If the spell expires while the subject is en route to you, the hand disappears; the subject must then rely on its own devices to locate you.

Hidden Knowledge: This subtle but useful spell allows the caster to safeguard important knowledge—even from himself. While casting this spell, you recite one piece of knowledge you possess (up to a maximum of 50 words). Upon completion of the spell’s casting, you transfer the knowledge from your mind to your skin in the form of an intricate, runic tattoo placed anywhere you choose on your body. The knowledge disappears utterly from your mind, and you might not realize you forgot something. The magic of the spell patches over gaps in your memory with recollections from the past. Until the spell’s duration ends, the knowledge is lost to you.

Hold Portal (Abjuration) This spell magically holds shut a door, gate, window, or shutter of wood, metal, or stone. The magic affects the portal just as if it were securely closed and normally locked.

Know Direction: (Divination) You can determine which way is North.

Light Creation: (Evocation [light]) Creates torches or other lights, or causes an object to shine like a torch.

Liquid Orb: (Conjuration/Summoning [water]) This creates an orb of nonflammable liquid in the caster's palm. The liquid maintains it's spherical shape until released. The temperature is always that of the surrounding air temperature. You may use the sphere to put out fires, or simply supply the caster with small amounts of fresh water, ink (nonmagical), clothing dye, fruit juice, cider, soup, or any other nonflammable liquid that causes no damage to normal creatures (no acids or poisons).

Mage Hand: (Transmutation) This grants the mage the ability to use telekinesis on any object 5 lbs or less.

Moonbridge: (Transmutation [good, light]) This spell transforms a shaft of moonlight, whether naturally occurring or magically created, into a translucent bridge capable of supporting you and creatures of good alignment. Creatures of neutral alignment can also walk upon a moonbridge as long as they remain in direct contact with you. Evil creatures find the moonbridge as insubstantial as moonlight.

Moonglow: (Alteration) This allows the caster to conjure a faint, blue-white radiance resembling moonlight, centered on a chosen item within range. The item chosen to be highlighted must be man-sized or smaller. Larger items are only partially illuminated (such as a wall, only a particular spot could be lit). The clothing or gear of a foe attacking in darkness could be chosen, but the item must be visible to your normal vision; the caster cannot illuminate some part of an invisible foe. Moonglow is completely suppressed by any time of magical darkness.

Moonglow Symbol: (Alteration) This spell enables the caster to draw a glowing symbol in the air or on a solid surface. The symbol is drawn with pure water, with vaporizes from the drawing finger during the spell. The symbol glows with a faint, silver-blue light like moonlight. The symbol can only be seen in darkness. It can be used to write messages and even set down sigils and runes, though they are without magical power. It is often used by mages to warn others of harmful runes or glyphs or as a warning to keep away.

Motes of Moonlight: (Evocation [light]) This spell creates a beam of silvery light in any direction you point. The beam extends from your position to a point within range that you have line of sight to. The beam hangs in place for the duration of the spell, even if you move.

Motion: (Alteration) This spell confers a magical moving force on an object touched by the spellcaster. The object must be designed to move in some way, for example a wagon would roll on its wheels without needing a horse to pull it; a boat would move over water; a water wheel could turn on its own.

Open/Close: (Transmutation) You can open or close (your choice) a door, chest, box, window, bag, pouch, bottle, barrel, or other container. If anything resists this activity (such as a bar on a door or a lock on a chest), the spell fails. In addition, the spell can only open and close things weighing 30 pounds or less. Thus, doors, chests, and similar objects sized for enormous creatures may be beyond this spell's ability to affect.

Planetarium: You project an image of the night sky based on your current location and the local time, allowing you to observe the heavens and all of its celestial bodies and features even during the daytime, indoors, or underground. Anyone within the planetarium's sphere can see the projection, though outside of the sphere the image becomes grainy and indistinct.

Private Sanctum: (Abjuration, Alteration) This spell insures privacy in a room of up to 1,600 square feet in area, or 40 foot by 40 foot in dimension. All windows in the room become dark and misty from the outside, preventing creatures with normal vision, darkvision or any other special vision from looking into the room. Those inside can look out normally. No sounds, no matter how loud, escape the room. Scrying attempts cannot penetrate.

Scrollsee: (Divination, Enchantment) This spell allows the caster to record the events occurring around him on a piece of parchment, and have those events replayed as moving pictures sometime in the future. The caster must have a plain sheet of parchment or smooth bark. If this is being used in combat, the caster can do nothing but focus and concentrate on recording the scene. This spell is cast again for the replay, the image is lifelike but the quality is affected by the material used for the spell. Also, the size of the image is about a foot square, so tiny details are indiscernible.

Servant Horde: (Conjuration/Summoning) This spell creates a number of invisible servants similar to the "unseen servant" spell. The number of servants created is equal to 2d6 + 1 per gemstone level. These servants can be used for laboring tasks such as serving at a banquet, helping to dig earthworks, rowing a ship, assisting in a farmer's fields. They last as many hours as your INT bonus.

Skyhook: (Evocation [force]) This spell creates a solid hook of force invisible to all but the caster in a desired location. The hook need not be attached to anything, and is usually created in midair over a chasm or pit. Once cast, it remains immobile. Creatures can hang on to it, ropes can be tied to or hooked over it, and so on. It supports up to 30 tons of weight. The skyhook vanishes when the spell expires. Once created, the skyhook cannot be moved.

Sorcerous Scribe: (Conjuration/Summoning) This conjures a magical quill to write down anything the caster says for the duration of the spell, as long as the caster stays within range. The quill transcribes in the language the caster is speaking and fails if no written form of the language exists. The quill only records actual words, and they are not imbued with any magical power. Parchment must be provided.

Special Effects: (Alteration) This spell allows the caster to create a physical effect of a visual, auditory, olfactory, gustatory or tactile nature. The effect must be nonharmful, but can take almost any form: lightning-like traces on a wall, haunting music, a stone floor that feels spongy, a sweet sensation on the tongue, or a room that smells like a pine forest for example. This can effect an object or area up to 10x10x10 feet. If used against a creature, they get a save, if they pass the spell does not take effect.

Telepathic Bond: (Divination) You forge a telepathic bond among yourself and a number of willing targets. Each creature included in the link is linked to all the others. The targets can communicate telepathically through the bond regardless of language. No special power or influence is established as a result of the bond. Once the bond is formed, it works over any distance (although not from one plane to another). If desired, you may leave yourself out of the telepathic bond forged. This decision must be made at the time of casting.

Tiny Hut: (Evocation [force]) You create an unmoving, opaque sphere of force of any color you desire around yourself. Half the sphere projects above the ground, and the lower hemisphere passes through the ground. As many as nine other Medium creatures can fit into the field with you; they can freely pass into and out of the hut without harming it. However, if you remove yourself from the hut, the spell ends. The temperature inside the hut is 70° F if the exterior temperature is between 0° and 100° F. An exterior temperature below 0° or above 100° lowers or raises the interior temperature on a 1-degree-for-1 basis. The hut also provides protection against the elements, such as rain, dust, and sandstorms. The hut withstands any wind of less than hurricane force, but a hurricane (75+ mph wind speed) or greater force destroys it. The interior of the hut is a hemisphere. You can illuminate it dimly upon command or extinguish the light as desired. Although the force field is opaque from the outside, it is transparent from within.

Unseen Servant: (Conjuration) An unseen servant is an invisible, mindless, shapeless force that performs simple tasks at your command. It can run and fetch things, open unstuck doors, and hold chairs, as well as clean and mend. The servant can perform only one activity at a time, but it repeats the same activity over and over again if told to do so as long as you remain within range. It can open only normal doors, drawers, lids, and the like.

Wood Spirit: Whistling up nature’s power and waving a branch of holly, you create a helper for the task at hand. A wood spirit is a translucent green nature spirit that you can command to perform simple natural tasks. It can build a campfire, gather herbs, feed an animal companion, catch a fish, or perform any other simple task that doesn’t involve knowledge of technology.
