Victer Zerkeen

You animate a number of dead bodies equal to the MP you spend, puppeting them as if they were marionettes. Animated dead do not possess spiritual energy to act on their volition; the spellcaster must issue commands, otherwise they stand numb and mindless. (The spellcaster may command them while acting otherwise.) For the purposes of this spell, corpses use the spellcaster's stats to act, but have 0 Smart, 0 Defense, and 1 HP, then are permanently destroyed. This spell does not affect undead, and you must concentrate on the working of this spell or else your animated dead are permanently destroyed.

You inspire in all those within the spell's area of effect an unnatural revulsion or attraction to you. If the attraction is sympathetic, they are compelled to stop what they are doing to approach and behold you immediately upon successfully casting the spell. If the attraction is revolting, they are compelled to back away and avoid your gaze. This spell does not otherwise change the attitudes of those affected, nor does it prevent them from taking action against you.

Your maleficence infects your target with a random disease. Roll a d12 (or 2d6 and split into two lists) to determine the disease: cholera, dysentery, influenza, lesions, malaria, black plague, small pox, spotted fever, tuberculosis, typhoid fever, typhus, or yellow fever. While this spell is in effect, your victim has disadvantage on Mighty and Deft. The symptoms of the disease take effect immediately. The mundane effects of the disease persist as a major peril, even after the spell ends, and can be cured naturally or by magic.

You bestow upon your victim a curse of your choosing: blindness, deafness, or muteness.

You shape your maleficence into a cloak that surrounds you or your target in magical energy. Choose a type: cold, fire, sound, lightning, force, or light/shadow. For the duration of the spell, magical sources of harm from the chosen element are reduced by 50%, rounded down in your favor. You may cast this spell multiple times to improve the protection (down to 1 point of damage) and choose different elements each time. If you are attacked (whether successfully or not), your maleficence inflicts a peril matching the element chosen.

You conjure into existence a pair of manacles for each MP spent. The manacles must be shackled to a victim manually to have effect (the victim is not entitled to a spell check if the manacles are successfully attached); afterwards, the victim cannot remove them, no matter their strength. The manacles are invulnerable to all forms of mundane damage, and will adjust their shape to match the limbs of the victim to which they are affixed. You can undo the shackles with a command word.

By touch, you cause a mundane, inanimate surface equal to the area of effect to become immaterial, allowing anyone to pass through for the duration of the spell.

This spell requires the presence of a corpse. You temporarily return the corpse's spirit to its body, making it possible to communicate with the spirit. While the spirit is compelled to communicate with you, said spirit might not be happy to have been returned to its body, and can divulge only what knowledge it had up until its death.

With magical insight, you or your target enhance your vision to see through illusions and other non-magical falsehoods in the spell's area of effect. For 1 MP, that which is hidden is revealed. For 2 MP, you see through disguises. For 3 MP, lies sound false to you and written untruths glow magically.

You utter a magic word at your targets. If they can hear it, they are wracked with crippling pain for the duration of the spell. Such victims are stunned and cannot move. You must concentrate on working your spell or their pain ends.

Your magic expunges lies in the area of effect. Although they are not forced to tell the truth, anyone within the area of effect is unable to tell a lie.
