Magic, Powers

Spells


In order to cast a spell the character must have the spell available to him; that is, he must possess the spell list, and be of sufficient level to cast the spell in question (except when 'overcasting'. See the Magic section for a more thorough explanation of this, and other spell mechanics).

No more than one spell per round may be cast. (Period, no exceptions.) Each spell is allowed only one save against its effects.

In combat, if a player is struck by either a weapon or a spell before he can cast, he loses the chance to cast, but no Power is expended.

Legend

Level
The minimum level the caster must be in order to cast the spell.
Name
The name of the spell.
Spell Cost
The amount of Power Points required to cast a spell. In the case of spells that may be sustained, the cost to cast is followed by the cost to sustain for the number of rounds shown under “Duration.” Example: 8/3, where the initial cost is 8 Power Points, and the cost for sustaining is 3 Power Points.
Duration
How long the spell lasts after it is cast. If a spell is sustainable, the first number shows the initial number of rounds after the spell is cast; the second number shows the incremental number of rounds added when a caster sustains the spell. Example: 5(+2) would mean that the initial duration would be five rounds, and the spell may be maintained in 2-round increments.
