rANDOM VanciaN SpelLS

At one time a thousand or more runes, spells, incantations, curses, and sorceries had been known. The reach of Grand Motholam—Ascolais, the Ide of Kauchique, Almery to the South, the Land of the Falling Wall to the East—swarmed with sorcerers of every description, of whom the chief was the Arch-Necromancer Phandaal. A hundred spells Phandaal personally had formulated—though rumor said that demons whispered at his ear when he wrought magic. Ponticella the Pious, then ruler of Grand Motholam, put Phandaal to torment, and after a terrible night, he killed Phandaal and outlawed sorcery throughout the land.

I'll give you a shout out on the brand new Hapless Henchman podcast if you toss me back a description of one of the spells below, spat out dutifully by the chained daemons I have crammed into Tablesmith. I really love the idea that players don't just cast 'Light' but rather 'Emirikol's Lingering Burst of Photonic Energy"and that sort of thing. Anyways, this is a jumbled up mess of a couple of original tables and a couple of built-in ones, plus maybe the old Maze Rats 1e magic system?

I don't know. I should better document my torturous researches.

  1. Reflecting Nectar of Hathoheri
    Level 1 MU Spell
    Range: Touch
    Duration: [Level]+2 Turns

    The target takes on an ethereal golden mirror-like sheen and smells of the sweetest nectar as they are enveloped by the aspect of Queen Bee Hathoheri of Her majesty's Splendid Hive. For the duration insects mundane or monstrous will not attack the target, with the exception of other Queen Bees. Queen Bees within 100ft know their location and are extremely aggressive towards then. This spell also grants the target the ability to communicate through pheromones with sentient bug-people for the duration.

  2. The magic wielding adventurer gets more insane with each passing adventure. Nay, say it's to with each encounter. Let the 20 items listed above demonstrate to a long-haul depth. Yet this same trenchant man never fails to recall to kill despised, tilting villains.
