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).

While the spell is in effect the White Cloak gains 2+Level Stealth, and can use Stealth to hide even in places where it would otherwise be impossible, such as in the middle of an open room, a brightly lit area, or near to someone searching for them.

EL3

learn6
With this spell the White Cloak can conjure a simulacrum of a Keldian from detritus such as dead grass, twigs, bones and the like. The items used must once have been living. The dead matter swirls together to form a figure which will pass casual inspection as a real Keldian, though the Effigy does not speak and moves and reacts as if listless, depressed or exhausted. The Mage may imitate a specific Keldian if they wish (including themselves), by making a successful Int + Culture / Art roll.

Anyone casually inspecting the Effigy has a chance to realize that something is wrong with it, by rolling Int resisted by the White Cloak's Presence. A close inspection (such as a body search) will always reveal the deception. When the deception is revealed the Effigy crumbles at once into dust. The same thing happens when the Mage ceases to maintain the spell. The Effigy otherwise is insensitive to damage or danger, except that it will readily catch fire.

The illusions will stand still, or repeat some simple task, without supervision, but require concentration to do more. The Mage must be able to see the illusions to have them act convincingly. The illusions last for 10 minutes.

Any seeing the spell’s images must roll Int vs. the Mage's Presence or fall for them and act as if they were real. If they pass the roll they are aware that something is wrong with what they are.

Using this spell the Dark Ones can use their link to the White Cloak to Manifest on Sun Keld for a brief moment. The nature of this manifestation varies wildly from entity to entity. Some may appear as no more than a voice, sensation or presence, unable to do more than communicate with their minions, while others can create a corporeal entity for themselves for the brief time they appear in the solid world (in this case use the stats from Calling the Deceiver. In either case the agenda of the summoned Outer God is it's own, and the White Cloak has no control over it whatever.

This spell conjures up a storm of phantasms and illusions that bring fear and confusion to all they effect. The spell must be targeted at a point no more than 100 + (Level * 100) Legats from the Mage, and affects an area 100 Legats in diamater. In the first few minutes after casting a wind begins to rise, followed by veils of dust, mist or snow (depending on where the spell is case). This rapidly grows into a blustery storm (Vision -4).

Anyone within the affected area is assaulted by fleeting images and illusions of things that they fear, inflicting a Fear attack of 14 + Caster Level. If the Caster is aware of a specific mental flaw suffered by someone within the area of effect then the flaw penalises the Fear check (as the images will target that flaw in particular).

After 10 minutes the storm lessens in intensity and fades away as quickly as it rose. The Mage may extend the spell by taking a further 3 Corruption, however each person in the area only suffers one Fear attack.

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. The Black Order spells Blessing of Water and Life Giver can undo the stigmata on the land.

learn8
This spell has powerful effects for the White Order Mages, for it allows them to pass much of their corruption to another creature. The target must be captured and subjected to a lengthy 6 hour ritual, at the end of which he or she makes an opposed Spirit test. If the roll fails then 3/4 of the Mage’s temporary Corruption is passed to the target. The rest of the Mage’s Corruption then becomes permanent, nothing can ever get rid of it.

Should the Corruption be less than the Phys of the target there are no immediate effects, but the target will quickly die of an incurable illness. If is exceeds the Phys, however, then the target becomes a Ghebbeth under the Mage’s command. This creature is short lived, but powerful, and is usually sent far from the Mage to conceal his location. It gains the following modifications to its characteristics:
A:+3, Phys:+2, Agility:+2, Health:+5, Spirit:-2, Ar:+4
The Ghebbeth loses the power of thought and speech, and cannot be affected by mind control or reading, illusions or mental effects, nor can it use any magic it may have had. It will obey the orders of the Mage as best it can, though it may sometimes rebel in minor ways when faced with things or people it once loved.

This spell allows the Mage to take a Keldian on the point of death and turn them into a Ghebbeth servant. The newly dead servant appears to be for all purposes alive, with the same stats as they previously had, though they have no memory of their previous life beyond skills and all magical abilities of any sort are lost. The Servant also gains the following modifications to stats (unlike Curse of Corruption there is no Spirit penalty).
A:+3, Phys:+2, Agility:+2, Health:+5, Ar:+4
The servant has two interesting features. Firstly some part of their body will always give away their true nature. Often they carry a white lock of fur, a misshapen foot, or their mouths are full of white ash. Similarly though they feel warm their hearts do not beat. Secondly a Servant can appear dead at any time they wish, and often look so fragile that a single blow will fell them. Only a Stonetalker with Healing Trait of 4+ who makes a roll of Int + Healing can detect otherwise. Often an apparently dead servant will rise and continue their Master’s mission as soon as the body is alone.

The servants only have one flaw, they accumulate 5 full points of Corruption every 5 days. If their Corruption exceeds the lowest of their Int, Phys or Ag then the Servant collapses into white ash instantly.

The Dark Amulet created by this spell is a piece of purest Obsidian about a hand across, strung on a leather thong and hung around the neck. It takes more than a week to carve the surface of the amulet into the runes of the Outer Gods. If hung about the neck of a follower of the Mage it inspires them to a state of insane devotion equivalent to Frenzy, and in which they must roll Int resisted by the Mage's Presence, or be willing to die as the Mage orders. They will always die to save his life if they can. If the amulet is hung about the Mage’s own neck then it increases his Magic Armour by 3. In both cases the amulet has no effect as soon as it is removed.

This spell allows the White Order Mage to devastate a vast area with the Corrupting touch of the Dark Ones. The Mage must embark upon a long ritual, many hours in length, whose cruelty causes the Mage to lose 4 Health and 5 Phys for the next day. As the ritual progresses the area around the Mage becomes tainted with a dark power. If the ritual reaches its conclusion all plants in the area die, and all animals flee or perish. The ground becomes red and blasted, shot through with bitter black ash, and incapable of supporting life for a hundred years afterwards. Any source of water becomes filled with salts that make it tainted and undrinkable, while deposits of ore are broken and made impure. Any Survival Blessing spell is destroyed. The area of effect of this terrible magic is 10 strides radius per level of Mage casting the spell.
