Blend8T1+1*David Michael Grouchy IIGives the target cameleon like color shifting. The effect is that the target becomes hard to see and all attacks against that target are DX-3 to hit. Costs 1 fatigue to cast, and 1 fatigue per turn it is maintained. With one of the following components it still costs 1 fatigue to cast but is maintained for one additional turn at no cost; nucleous of slime, tail of cat, live cat, ear of slinker, live slinker, or the scale of Apopos.

This is an explosive growth rate that will knock anyone on the target hex into and adjacent hex. The roots will do substantial damage to any stone, though the canopy will just entangle itself in any beams or roofing overhead. The canopy will be fourteen times the area of the trunk. Costs 3 points of fatigue per hex of trunk and lasts one day. It costs one fatigue per day maintained after that. Each additional hex of trunk size requires and extra turn to grow into. If the caster has the heart of a blood tree the initial cost is reduced by 1 fatigue.
Small8C1per*David Michael Grouchy IIShrinks the target to 1/7th their normal size. This makes a noramally 1 Hex figure harder to hit with contact weapons by DX-3. Turns a 7-hex dragon into a little 1-hex one. Costs 1 point of fatigue to cast for each hex of the target. So that 7-Hex dragon would cost 7 points of fatigue to shrink. In addition it costs one per turn maintained. If the caster has the heart of a slinker, dragonet, or snake, the initial cost is reduced by 1 point of fatigue. Or instead of the heart if the wizard has a live slinker, dragonet, or snake the initial cost is reduced by 1 point of fatigue, but never more than one, no matter how many live ones or hearts they have.
Staff8S5David Michael Grouchy IIA magical skill that can make straight or make crooked any cut peice of wood. The effects can be quite subtle making the wood spiral, or squared like a plank. Typically used to make a personalized staff for the wizard it can also be used to bend a support beam out of its place or separate the peices of a wooden door. The energy stored in a staff can be used to do 1D damage just by touching a target, and this does not depend on the size of the staff. It can be a twig or an ancient 49-hex giant red oak. The only condition is that the wood can not be living, but must have been cut, and must always change the peice of wood by either straightening, making crooked, or giving it a unique shape. If anyone tries to handle the peice of wood without the wizards permission by picking it up, grabing it, or ortherwise handling it (like a dog carrying it in their teeth), it will dischage a constant shock doing 3D damage to the person handling the staff. The spell is permenant untill the staff is broken. It costs 5 points of fatigue to cast. The staff may also be used to store up extra energy. Energy the wizard may draw on to cast their spells with. At the end of any day that a wizard did no work they may charge the staff. Doing no work in this is defined as spending no fatigue. For every 5 points of fatigue spent by the wizard the staff is charged 1 point. The staff may hold no more than the wizard's Strength (though a staff of power may hold double that). When casting a spell the wizard may draw on the stored energy in their staff instead of using their own fatigue. The energy drawn this way may not be more than the wizard can produce themself in their current state of fatigue. Anything more will knock the wizard unconcious and automatically cause the spell they were casting to fail.

Write spell11SX2David Michael GrouchyA spell may be written on any object, making that object attuned to another casting, or active Enchantment with the same type of spell. Like a needle, once magnetized with a spell written on it will vibrate when ever the same spell is used within a Mega Mega Hex of it. This does not give the item the ability to cast the spell. It just detects any casting or use of that spell and vibrates slightly. Casting Write Spell on an item cost x2 the normal cost of casting the spell alone. The wizard may write the spell in any laguage they know.

Dragon's Breath12M1per*David Michael GrouchyThis spell covers and area equal in size to the hex area of the wizard casting it. If the wizard fails their DX roll it still fires and costs full fatigue, it just misses the target. It continues on in a straight line possibly hitting something else. The spell costs 1 point of fatigue per 1-1 damage it does but this damage must be spread out over the target hexes. Because of this multi-hex characters must spend a minimum 1 fatigue per hex to cast this spell. If the wizard casting this spell has a dragon's tounge, dragon's heart, or dragon's skin, the spell costs 1 point of fatigue less to cast. Three points less if they have all three.
Drunkeness12I3per*David Michael GrouchySometimes this spell can be an effective defence in combat. Drunkeness causes a character to have to roll a extra dice to perform any action, and two extra dice to do any ranged action. A drunken person also moves unpredictably and is harder to be hit. Anyone attacking a drunken character has to roll and extra dice, and two extra dice if it is a ranged action. Drunkeness also causes the character to think about nothing but what ever they were thinking about before they got drunk. That is, what ever was on their mind or weighing on their heart before they got drunk will be the recurring issue while they are drunk. This can be a useful interrogation tool if you can get the target thinking about the information you want before they are drunk. Unfortunately drunkeness is not an effective way to get inforrmation on a wide range of subjects. This spell costs 3 points of fatigue to cast per sixth of a day it is to last. If the caster has a bottle of wine it cost 1 point less to cast.
Break12T3David Michael GrouchyWill break anything that is not metal, or alive. Fortunately all weapons and armour have parts that are not metal. Even a sword has the wooden halves of it's hilt. Plate armour has the leather straps holding it together. A sheild has straps or a wooden handle. Half the weight of chain mail is supported by a belt around the waist. A broken weapon does half damage or only 1D, which ever is less. Broken armour still stops the same damage but doubles the DX minus. A broken sheild is unuseable unless it is used two handed. Finely made or magical items get a saving throw vs. being broken. This is 3D vs. the kg of the item rounded down if +1. Or 2D vs. kg if +2, or 1D vs. kg if +3. This spell cost 3 points of fatigue to cast.
Repair12C5perDavid Michael GrouchySimilar to Break, but with the opposite effect. This spell will mend broken things like weapons, equipment, or armour. An item that was enchanted then broken will loose the enchantment. This spell can mend the item, but will not restore the enchantment. It costs 5 points of fatigue per hex of the item.
Reptile poison12C3per*David Michael GrouchyThis spell creates a hex of poison gas that is hamless to any creature except a reptile. Any reptile in the hex gets a save of 3D vs. IQ to catch its breath or take 3D damage from breathing the gas. This gas has no effect on undead reptiles or other magical creatures. It cost 3 points of fatigue per hex of gas and lasts for 12 turns. It cost 1 point less if the wizard has the brain of a stone beetle.
Bear fur12T2+1*David Michael GrouchyThis spell gives the target a thick skin and furry coat just like a bear. This skin stops 2 points of damage. To cast this spell costs 2 points of fatigue plus one point per turn it is maintained. If the wizard has one of the following the spell costs one point less to cast, the hide of a black, grizzly, or kodiac bear.
Rinocerous hide12T2+1*David Michael GrouchyThis spell gives the target a thick leathery hide just like a rinocerous. This skin stops 2 points of damage. To cast this spell costs 2 points of fatigue plus one point per turn it is maintained. If the wizard has a rinocerous hide the spell costs one point less to cast.
Chitin12T2+1*David Michael GrouchyThis spell gives the target a skin of layerd plating like a lobster. This skin stops 2 points of damage. To cast this spell costs 2 points of fatigue plus one point per turn it is maintained. If the wizard has a lobster or crab shell this spell cost one point less to cast.
Sharp smell12T2+1*David Michael GrouchyA character under the influence of this spell can track a person just by senting their clothing at the last place they were seen. Even up to two days after last seen, unless it has rained. This spell costs 2 points to cast +1 per turn it is maintained. Sharp smell costs 1 point less to cast if the wizard has a Wolves brain.

Slimed Armour13C3per*David Michael GrouchyLike Breakweapon, but for armor. Just like being attacked by a slime the target characters' armor will hold out for one more turn, then offers no protection. It is broken. Repair will restore the armor to full use. If the armor has bonuses due to being finely made and/or enchanted it gets a saving throw. 1D vs. total pluses. So a fine breast plate for +1 DX and enchanted for +3 damage has to roll a 4 or less on 1D to resist. This spell costs 3 points of fatige per hex of the target. This spell does not work on natural armor, only the kind worn by characters. It does not work on stone or iron flesh either. It cost 1 point less to cast if the wizard has the nucleous of a slime.
Crocodile skin13T2+1David Michael GrouchyGives the target a thick bumpy hide that stops 3 points of damage. It looks like knotty wood. The spell cost 2 points of fatigue to cast, plus one point per turn it is maintained. It cost one point less to cast if the wizard has 1 hex of crocodile hide.
Island Gargoyle13C4+1*David Michael GrouchyCreates a winged gargoyle out of the very ground. The gargolye can speak and the wizard can see through its eys. It has a pike ax which it can use to 2-hex jab from above, and it has claws on its hands and feet wich used together to do 2+2 damage. It has ST 15, DX 10, IQ 7, MA 8 and can fly at 16. When flying the gargoyle is at DX-4 to attack or be attacked. At a DX of 10 the gargoyle usually lands before attacking. Its stony skin stops 3 points of damage from all incoming attacks. The gargoyle can also fly into and under water at MA 8. Returning from the water to the air is easy as the water just rolls off its stony skin, though the pike ax turns to smoke on entering the water. This spell costs 4 points of fatigue to cast, and 1 point for each additional turn it is maintained. It costs 1 point less to cast if the wizard has the heart of a gargoyle.

Island Demon14I20*David Michael GrouchyCalls a demon into the visible world. The demon will perform one task for the wizard or fight for twelve turns before returning to the invisible world. The demon has ST 24 plus the wizard's current ST, DX 2 plus the wizard's current DX, IQ 4 plus the wizard's current IQ, MA 6 plus the wizard's current MA, and its skin stops 3 points of damage from all attacks. The fatigue cost to cast this spell is an enormous 20 points. There is a way around this if the wizard knows the name of the demon they wish to summon. The wizard can make an idol to the demon and worship it to store up the fatigue needed in the idol. Each life sacraficed to the idol adds 1 point of fatigue. Up to 14 points of fatigue used in casting the spell may be stored this way. The spell may not be extended, maintained, or increased in any way.
Island Giant14A(4)+1*David Michael GrouchyCreates a giant out of the very ground. The giant can talk and the wizard can see out of the giant's eyes. The giant has ST 8.33 per hex, DX 9, IQ 7, MA 10 and must be at least three hexes in size. It is armed with a battle axe in one hand for 3D damage, and has a tower sheild and chain mail stopping 6 points of damage and subtracting nothing from DX. The giant can swim, though at three hexes tall it usually just wades through the edge of any lake or across any river. It's immense size also gives it a reach of three hexes to strike with its fists or battle axe. A giant does 1+3 with its fist. If the giant wades in water its chainmail turns to smoke, if it gets up to its chest in water it tower sheild turns to smoke, and if it goes underwater its battle axe turns to smoke. The giant can pick up and throw objects smaller than itself like a horse, boulder, log, boat, or cart to name a few. Use the molotov coctail rule of DX-1 per Megahex distant the object is thrown (See A.M. page 23). Large objects thrown like this do 1+1 damage to any figure in the Megahex so hit. This spell costs 1 point to cast plus 1 point per hex of the giant. The giant has to be at least three hexes in size so the minimum cost to cast this spell is 4 points of fatigue. It costs 1 point to maintain the giant for each turn after that, no matter how large it is. This spell costs 1 point less to cast if the wizard has the heart of a giant.

Clam shell20M5per*David Michael GrouchyThis missile spell is used to trap a target and protect them. Some times it is used to take prisoners, sometimes to save wounded comrades. The target of the clam shell missile is closed up in a giant shell. The shell is ablative and only stops 50 points of damage before it is broken through. That is one point of armor is destroyed for each point of damage the shell stops. While in the clam shell the target is put into a state just like the Little Death spell. But if the target is unwilling they get a save of 5D vs. ST to escape from within. Otherwize they go into Little Death on the following turn. It costs 5 points of fatigue to cast per day the shell is to last. It cost one point less to cast per pearl of a Giant Clam the wizard has, up to 4.
