Spells and more spells. Chain Challenge
« on: September 16, 2014, 08:21:45 AM »
I notice how some people limits their spells. Everyone knows you can shoot fireballs and Magic missle and force shields. But those are a little too boring if you ask me. So here is what I would call a chain challenge.
I'll write a spells, what it does mechanicly.

Spirit Attack Weapon X Physical stress.

Now someone else gets to explain what this spell is, is it a magic missle? A wave of force? Get as creative as you possible can. When you are done with that, you add your own "boring" mechanic for a spell for somone else. Or for those looking for a more diffcult challange, use elements that maybe dont make too much sense? Like a Fire Block for perception (Fire veil).

In short, go nuts with your spell ideas. And lets make all the wizards out there a little more flavorful.

My spell is: Water Block X for Mental attacks

A weak and temporary form of mental shapeshifting, turning the mind into a sort of chaotic-yet-still-functional soup which attacks disappear harmlessly into.

Weapon 3 earth zone attack.

Use electromagnetism to bend a building's framing, make it unstable, and pull the roof down on top of anyone luckless enough to be in that zone.

Heat Haze Mirage, using heated air to refract light.

Everything in the zone gets wet and slippery like a greased pig making it difficult to hold on to anything.

Flames and burning debris whip around the caster in a squat tornado, leaving the eye of the effect in eerie stillness.

I would change that to "...debris whips around nearby in a squat tornado..." since it's a zone border not a personal block. Otherwise, cool.

Any evothaum? Hm...Superior Conjuring it is!

Conjures an octopus-monster with far too many tentacles beneath the target that envelops them, choking and squeezing for a few seconds before it dissolves into goo.

For the next trick: a Spirit Block against physical attacks that isn't a simple wall/bubble/etc of force.

Hyper-awareness temporarily giving the caster heightened reflexes.

Briefly turning yourself into a ghost and "vanishing" a few hundred feet away.


Next up, a Biomantic Ward.
Hi! My home is called an apiary! I collect honey, and defend the Queen!

Not-so-secretly a power hungry megalomaniac with a Modular Abilities addiction.

Vat-grown flesh covers the whole area.  You must exit and enter by pushing through a thin but tough membrane.  Touching any part of the ward it causes the intruder to break out into sores that hemorrhage and bleed profusely.

Next:
1 target, Block on all actions: Soul-Fire

A ward that either only allows or only stops a living being.

Next:
1 target, Block on all actions: Soul-Fire

Psychically compelling the target to relive every single past sin and transgression.

Transformation/Disruption EvoThaum that attacks Mental.

Transforms the mind of the target into a beast coloring their instincts. Maybe a bird so they jump off the roof of a building trying to take to the sky. Or a loyal dog to make for a better servant.

How about: Air x Attack Social.

A sudden updraft to lift up someone's shirt or skirt in an embarrassing way.

Not to steal from D&D, but Barkskin. Alternately, quick growing vines that form a hedge or wall to absorb damage.

I never thought of social attacks before or alternate Paradigms. What about Metal social attack.
