Using this spell the White Cloak can target another Keldian and bring out the worst in them, encouraging their petty flaws, hatreds and prejudices. The Mage must roll Presence resisted by the target's Spirit +4. If he succeeds the target becomes agitated, angry, vengeful, lazy or similar, the negative emotion chosen being based on their existing disposition (e.g. an angry man will become more angered, while a nervous one becomes fearful). The White Cloak's roll has a bonus equal to the Corruption of the target. In addition the target's Spirit is penalised by any Flaw which applies to their worsening mood. The Mage does not get to choose the new behaviour of the target.

difficulty-2
This spell allows the Cleric to infuse growing crops with the energy of the earth spirits, so that they better resist the difficult conditions of drought, sun and cold. It is in many ways a lesser version of the Red Order Sun's Blessing (though it affects only plants). To cast the spell the Cleric must walk the boundaries of the affected fields or plants, casting bonemeal (made from Keldian bones) onto the earth. Through this the attention of the Earth Spirits is drawn. The plants affected have a +2 bonus on Survival or Farming rolls made by those who tend them until the current crop is harvested, after which the ritual must be repeated. If the bone dust used is not drawn from the body of a Keldian who lived on the lands affected, raise the difficulty by 5.

Each use of the Crop Blessing can affect up to 1 field (100 paces square), of land.

difficulty-5
This spell allows the Cleric to call upon the Ancestors and earth spirits to attempt to cure a curse, disease, or poisoning suffered by another Keldian. Taking them to a Satvan they conduct a ritual to importune the spirits for aid. The Cleric may make a roll of Presence resisted by the difficulty of the affliction to attempt to remove it, and may spend any number of additional fatigue (or Lethal) above the casting cost to increase the roll. If they make the roll then the affliction is broken and will begin to slowly fade (a curse has it's effects lessened, a poison or disease causes no further damage). Additional successes speed the recovery time. A Curing cannot affect an affliction with a difficulty greater than 10 + Caster Level x 5.

For dramatic curings (such as an attempt to remove a mighty curse) you may make the curse breaking roll into an extended contest of Presence vs. Affliction, where the Cleric may spend fatigue and lethal on each roll. Accumulating 3 successes ends the curse. In this case the Cleric takes the margin of failure on his rolls as Fatigue.

The difficulty of a disease or poison is equal to the resistance of any Physical (or equivalent) roll required by the sufferer to avoid it. Curses caused by spells have a difficulty of 10 + Rank + EL.

This spell may set on fire any single flammable and non-living object within 20+Level strides of the Mage, which is no bigger than the Mage. Suitable targets might include dry grass, oil soaked cloth, oil or wax, or even very dry wood. Live plants, animals, stone, metal and the like will not catch fire. The spell always affects a single item, even if it surrounded by other flammable items, such as one rag in a pile of rags.

Targeting an item requires an attack roll (Using Ranged / Thrown or Ranged / Special (magic)), but stationary targets are treated as having a Defence of 5. Small targets (such as a twig on a shelf) might have a higher defence. If a creature is holding the item then use the creature's Defence for the attack roll.

When the spell hits the item begins to smoulder and then catches fire. Anyone in contact with the burning object will take damage as normal, depending on the nature of the burning item as described in the rules for fire damage.

Lesser Anchor
KeywordsLink
DurationInstant
EL1
fatigue3
difficulty3
With this spell a Mage can establish a link to another Keldian through which a portion of their magical energy flow can be directed. This link allows a little of the energy a Mage draws when Channelling a spell to be anchored in the other person, helping protect the Mage from failed castings. The Anchor must be cast the round before a second spell. If the second spell's Channelling roll fails then the effective margin of failure (for determining effects on the Mage) is reduced by 2, and the Anchor takes 1 Lethal damage. This cannot cause a failed Channelling roll to succeed.

To cast the spell the Mage must touch the target firmly. A Lesser Anchor can only be created with a willing subject. A Mage may only have one sort of Anchor (Lesser Anchor, Anchor, Master's Anchor) at once.

Marking
DurationInstant
EL1

difficulty2
The Black Order uses this spell to make a permanent mark on an object recording its date and owner, usually for goods. This mark, while seeming to be no more than complex rune to most eyes, is instantly recognizable and readable by any Order Mage. By this means is trade regulated and transactions recorded, usually on clay tablets. It is suspected that many of the Red Cloaks have trained themselves to read the marks, but officially only the Black Order has the skill.

The mark done by each Mage casting this spell is a unique sigil that identifies that Mage. A Mage may also learn one or more special Marks, such as that of his order or that of his city, however when casting such a Mark the spell takes a full 2 minutes to complete. It is possible for a Mage to try and copy the marking of a sigil he does not know. Increase difficulty by 2 to emulate another Generic Mark and 9 to imitate another Mage’s personal Mark. A Mark can only be copied if the Mage has it in front of them to study.

Using this spell the White Cloak buys success at the cost of their own self. Ravage is invoked just before the Mage makes any skill or attribute check; the Mage gains +2 on that roll. Each time the Mage uses this power they damage themselves within, gaining corruption at a rapid rate. Sigmata caused by this corruption take the form of wracking coughs, internal pain, leaking pus, and black bile. A Mage who over-uses this spell cracks open like a rotten fruit, spilling corruption into the soil.

The Red Cloak directs the raw power of the burning Sun to blast and burn a nearby target. The Mage has only to channel and gesture, and dull red fire explodes around the target, dealing 2D4+2 damage (ignoring one half armour). There is no need to roll to hit, but the spell can only affect a single target up to 7+Level Legats away. Sun's Wrath is an excellent defensive spell, but a poor offensive one, since it puts the Mage in range of any return attack. Unlike most damage spells, which can easily have their power altered by the Mage, Sun's Wrath is easily overloaded, exploding with power.

When they do so the pass a number of corruption points equal to their Level +2 to the other person, but gain 1 permenant point as they do so. By use of this spell a White Mage may keep their corruption in check, while corrupting others.

If the person who receives the touch desires to join the White Order, and is aware that they have been offered and are accepting the Gift, then this spell also gives the target the White Order Mage Path and 1 permenant corruption. In this case the casting Mage does not gain 1 permenant corruption.

This spell allows the Cleric to draw on the strength of the earth to cast a spell. The Cleric casts this spell followed by another, or casts it on another person who then casts a spell. If both spells work then the Cleric only gains the fatigue for this spell, the fatigue from the second spell is absorbed into the earth. To perform this the Cleric must be in contact with the earth directly in some way, either through their feet or hands. It cannot be cast in a building above ground nor in a boat.

Whenever a Cleric Draws on the Earth they run the risk of absorbing some of the Earth into them. Roll a D20. If the roll is less than or equal to the Circle of the Spell whose energy was absorbed the Mage gains one fatigue permanently.

This spell allows the Cleric to attempt to heal a wounded Keldian with the help of an Ancestor. The Cleric must have some of the Ancestor's remains at hand, and the Ancestor must be willing. The Cleric touches the remains with one hand and the Keldian with the other and attempts to move damage from one to the other. If the spell succeeds the Cleric heals up to the capacity of the remains in Lethal damage, and the remains crumble to ash and blow away. Whether the spell fails or succeeds the Cleric takes 1 Lethal damage.

Different sizes of remains can absorb different amounts of damage. A small bone (finger or toe) will heal up to 4 Lethal, a larger bone (rib, forearm) will heal 6, while the largest bones (skull, upper limbs, spine) will heal 10. Obviously the stock of remains held by a given Cleric may be very limited.

More a technique than a spell, Matrix Burst allows a Mage to grasp one of their own Matrices and release its energy in a burst to enhance other spellcasting. The Mage must have a Matrix (see Matrix Quality) and then make a Magic Save at +2. If they succeed they grasp the Matrix and release its energy. This reduces the difficulty and fatigue of the next spell they cast by 4 each (or 6 in the case of a Perfected Matrix). The Matrix is violently discharged. Any spell or fatigue in the Matrix is wiped, and the Matrix ceases to work for the next three turnings.

This spell must be cast from a Matrix. The Matrix is wiped and then charged with energy. The charged Matrix is able to hold 3 Energy Levels of spells instead of the normal 2. It retains this ability until the next time it is wiped.

If the Channel of the Matrix Charge fails then the Matrix is disabled as if Matrix Burst had been cast on it, and the margin of failure on the Channel roll is increased by 2. Should the Mage fail any Channel roll when casting the spell in the Charged Matrix then it is automatically wiped.

Red Path

difficulty-5

This spell allows a Red Mage to find his way to distant places, things or people. The Red Sun sees all things on which it shines, and can guide the Mage to them. To cast this spell the Mage must name a place, object or person, using it's proper name (the spell cannot guide to a place merely by description), or point to a place, thing or person which he can see. After spending 10 minutes communing with the sun the Mage releases the energy towards the named target. The magic draws a line in the red soil for up to 30 Klegs, in the direction of the target. While following this trail the Mage gains a tracking bonus equal to 2 plus his Tracking Skill to find the target.

The spell has a number of restrictions :

  • It cannot find a target on which the sun does not shine. Specifically this means it cannot seek a target in the Darklands, nor one underground, or inside any structure.
  • It can indicate a path only in terrain through which the line can be marked, such as sand or earth.
  • It cannot find a target whose proper name the Mage does not know.

To cast this spell the Mage must take the life of a single Keldian in ritual sacrifice, plunging a ritual blade into their heart. As the sacrifice dies it takes some of the Mage's corruption with it, sloughing it away with the flowing blood. The Mage loses corruption equal to the Spirit of the sacrificed Keldian. The 1 point of corruption gained for casting the spell is permenant however.

In desperate times the spell can be used to sacrifice an animal instead of a Keldian. In this case the corruption lost is equal to the creature's Intelligence or the Mage's Level, whichever is lower. The casting corruption is still permenant.

This spell is normally taught only as a gift from a Spirit Naga. When cast it will summon any nearby serpents and compel them to follow the Mage's commands for Level rounds. The number of serpents that respond to the call (and the time it takes them) varies widely based on location. In the Twilight Jungles a Snake : Swarm is usually summoned, while on the One-River a Snake : Constrictor is more normal. Rarer snakes will be summoned in 5D10 minutes. If the time to appear ends up greater than the Mage's Level + Presence then the serpent abandons the call. If you know that a specific snake exists then the Call always applies to it if possible.

Blood Sorcery
KeywordsSustain
DurationInstant
EL3
fatigue10
difficulty-12
This powerful enchantment is used by the Mages of the Black Order to offset the disabling effects of some of their more powerful spells. By using the fresh blood of a living creature, animal or Keldian, cut with a bronze knife and poured into a bronze bowl, the spell enables a Mage to ignore the attribute reducing effects of spells such as Sword of Night or Lesser Binding, or the Lethal / Weakening damage inflicted by spells on their caster. It cannot offset attributes lost to bind Demons, since that sacrifice is part of the Demon's price.

The spell can prevent one point of attribute loss for each 10 Health's worth of blood sacrificed. The blood may come from multiple people but the total points of blood obtained from each person is reduced by the number of people. For example to get 30 points of blood from 3 people requires doing 13 damage to each of them! From 6 people it would require 11 points to each (5 + 6). This spell is cast just before the spell to be enhanced, which must be begun in at most 10 minutes after the Blood Sorcery. Note that the spell to be enhanced and the Sorcery need not be cast by the same person.

Blood Sorcery can also be used to offset the cost of a burden. In this case the burden is divided between each of the people who donated blood (10 points worth for each burden). Each of these people gains Flaw : Burdened but does not suffer an attribute loss.

To cast this spell the Mage must first prepare an enchanted sphere of red copper on which mystical designs are etched. This sphere is value 8 and has a Crafting (Mining / Smithing) Difficulty of 14. As part of the crafting process the Mage must cast the spell 3 times on 3 consecutive days, using 11 Fatigue and -10 Difficulty for each casting.

To activate the sphere the Mage casts it into an open fire (use Ranged / Thrown skill against a Defence of 10 - Size as given below), and makes a quick Channelling roll. If the throw and the casting are successful all the flame instantly rises up into a ball of fire which then explodes, doing D10+X damage where X depends on the size of the fire, 3 for a cook fire, 6 for a campfire, 9 for a large grate and 12 for a bonfire, to all in a 7 Legats radius. Each target may roll Agility resisted by 13 to take only 1/2 damage. After the explosion there is a chance equal to 7 or less on a D20 that the sphere is damaged and cannot be used to cast the spell again.

Flow Disruption
DurationInstant
EL1

difficulty-2
By using this tricky spell a Mage may attempt to interrupt the flow of energy another Mage is using to cast a spell before they can finish casting it. Flow Disruption must be cast faster than the other spell to have a chance to disrupt it, but 1 round spells can still be interrupted if Flow Disruption is used at the same speed.

To interrupt the spell the Mage must be able to see the caster as they are casting. They must then cast the Flow Disruption with the base difficulty increased by the difficulty of the spell they are trying to disrupt (do not count power levels). If their roll succeeds, and has a better margin of success than the casting roll of the other Mage, then the spell is disrupted.

For example a Red Order Mage is casting Dustflash (difficulty -3), and has a base Magic Save of 15. He rolls to cast against a 12, and rolls a 7 (margin of success 5). Another Mage using Flow Disruption tries to prevent him. She has a base Magic Save of 14. She must cast Flow Disruption at -5 (base of -2 increased by the difficulty of the Dustflash), and roll less than 4 (margin of success 6 or more), to interrupt the spell.

This spell allows the Mage to channel his own life-force into another, with the intention of healing his wounds. Unfortunately the magic achieves this by draining the Mage’s own Health. The Mage must touch the subject, who is briefly outlined in flame. The spell then restores D6 Health to the target while doing D6 damage to the Mage. No device nor spell will prevent this loss of life. This spell is not taught by all schools of Mages but is instead held only in the hands of the most significant locations of the orders, such as the Great Cities and the principal towns.

A normal Matrix has a Defence of 10+owner's level, while a Perfected Matrix has a Defence of 15+Level.

This spell is also called Night Opening Fruits for it causes the flowers of the Twilight lands to open, and the Kail Trees to put forth fruit. Since these flowers and fruit are the chief source of food in the wilds of the Twilight lands this is a valuable spell. The only danger is that the spell also opens the poisonous flowers of other plants, so the eater must be cautious (requires a successful Int + Survival / Twilight to collect the food). A single casting of this spell in the Poison Forest produces enough food to feed the Mage's Level in people for a day. Feeding larger numbers of people requires more plants, so the Mage may have to move around to find more.

If an area gains at least 5 corruption then everything in it starts to show stigmata. The soil becomes pale and lifeless, plants wilt and shed their leaves, animals turn sickly and scaled.

When this dust is cast to the ground a Duststorm springs into life. The storm inflicts 2D4 damage per round to anyone caught within it (a Survival / Drylands or Deadlands roll halving the damage) and gives -5A. The spell’s storm only covers a 20 stride radius area and lasts for only 5 minutes.

Requires Ignite

With this spell the Red Mage can unleash the essential fire of the Sun on any object, consuming it in brilliant flame. The spell acts like the Rank 1 spell Kindle except that it can target any solid unliving substance. Even stone, metal, glass or ice may be set alight using Consume. Like Kindle and Ignite the spell requires an attack roll, with stationary objects having a Defence of 5, while carried objects use the Defence of their bearer (or wearer).

On the round the spell is cast a bright glow begins to suffuse the object, inflicting 2 Lethal damage on anything in contact with it. On the following round the object bursts into supernatural flame, inflicting 2D6 damage to the object and anything in contact with it. The object's own armour is ignored.

The flames conjured by a consumed object are almost impossible to extinguish. Even immersion in water or sand will not put them out, only magical effects, or dispelling the Consume, will suffice. Otherwise the object will continue to burn until it is reduced to ash.

A normal Matrix has a Defence of 10+owner's level, while a Perfected Matrix has a Defence of 15+Level.

If the attack succeeds then the Matrix is Dislocated, and its owner can no longer access it, losing the Quality (no CP are refunded for this). A Dislocated Matrix will flare with power and then slowly drift apart.

This insidious spell can be used by the Black Order Mage to unsettle and frighten a group of people, up to 2 per level of the Mage. To cast the spell the Mage takes up a blow tube and blows a puff of grass pollen at a group of people within 10 strides of each other and no more than 2+Level strides away. These people are then beset by images out of nightmare, unexplained sights behind them, itching skin, shapes moving out of the corners of their eyes. Each member of the group must resist a Fear 18 attack.

This spell is the ultimate punishment of the Orders upon their peers, and is considered a worse fate than mere execution. The target of the spell, who must be present throughout the casting, is permanently cut off from the magical energies of nature. Once Stilled they can no longer channel power from the Sun, Dark Side or any other source, the energy simply will not flow. Stilling entirely removes the magical abilities of any Mage, Wizard or Cleric, and will also remove any Gift Quality from it's target.

Since the Spell is of rank 6 it requires a caster of Level 9 or 10 to lead the casting and other Mages to assist, therefore Stilling cannot be done except by a group of Mages in conjunction. The Orders make sure to guard copies of this spell with great security, and it is cast only as a punishment ordered by a Mage's Court. Each Mage involved in the casting also suffers part of the backlash, losing 1 Spirit.

Stilling has no effect on the powers of the White Order.
