SPELLS OF VENGEANCE

The Elemental Dimension of Magic Î Spells of Vengeance

The Jeshatan have mastered many kinds of spells, one of which are Spells of Vengeance. Vengeance is one of the

twelve great schools of their Arcane Collection. They are taught at a very young age, and nearly all of them know at least

some, while the truly vicious among them have mastered the wicked. There are harsh laws in their society, but the

unwritten ones of revenge are even harsher.

Taste Link

Enchantment [Enhancement]

Level: Sor/Wiz 1

Components: V, S, M

Casting Time: 1 action or Special

Range: 25 ft or Special

Effect: Links the sense of taste on two

creatures

Duration: 1 day/level

Saving Throw: Fortitude

Spell Resistance: Yes

Everyone has bad days. This spell makes

them worse. Whenever the victim of this spell

is doing something that involves a d20 and

rolls a 1, then the result is made worse.

Specifically, if they were attacking and might

simply have dropped their sword, this spell

would cause them to automatically make a roll

to attack the nearest ally. If they were making

a skill roll and normally would simply have

failed in the worst possible way, now it has the

effect of doing something annoying to

everyone else around the character. Generally

speaking, these effects (with the exception of

fumbled attacks) should be cosmetic only but

extremely embarrassing. The number of times

this spell works depends on the level of the

caster. It has one application for every three

levels of the caster. The spell will linger for

one day per level of the caster until either the

charges or the time limit of the spell has gone.

This spell automatically links the taste of the

target with that of another creature, forcing

them to experience what the other tastes. This

spell has little practical game effect. At worst a

Î2 penalty on all actions depending on what

the linked creature is eating, but generally it is

simply an extremely unpleasant experience.

There are two ways of administering this spell.

The first is conventional, which has the regular

saving throw. The second is a specially

prepared alchemical formula that has a DC of

25 to make with a cost of 250 gp for the

components. If this alchemical concoction is

bespelled and then unwittingly consumed by

the victim, they make their save at a DC of

+10.

Material Component: A pair of dice.

Blabbermouth [Enhancement]

Level: Sor/Wiz 3

Components: V, S, M

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: 25ft

Effect: The character says the worst possible

thing at the worst possible time

Duration: 1 hour/level

Saving Throw: Will

Spell Resistance: Yes

The most common use of this spell is to cast it

on a creature such as a Carrion Crawler or a

dog. The caster may elect to make the link

one way.

This spell temporarily disables that part of the

mind that prevents the victim from saying

something stupid. As such, whatever he is

thinking will be said. This does not mean that

the victim turns into a babbling idiot. The spell

is quite selective at ensuring that what spills

forth from the characterÓs mouth, is the worst

possible thing to say at the worst possible

moment. One excellent mechanic for this

might be to simply apply anything said by the

player out of character as having been said by

the character at the most applicable time.

Another possible method of use is to spill any

Material Component: The Tongue of a Bard

Fool of Fate

Enchantment [Enhancement]

Level: Sor/Wiz 2

Components: V, S, M

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: 25 ft

Effect: Makes bad situations worse

Duration: 1 day/level or until decharged

Saving Throw: Will

Spell Resistance: Yes

dark secrets that they might be holding at the

worst possible time. This spellÓs purpose is to

ruin the characterÓs life as much as possible,

so simply spilling nonsense wonÓt do,

generally. The spell also will not make up lies;

anything that the character says is something

that they actually know or are thinking, but

donÓt want to say at that particular time.

Effect: Droplets of Acid

Duration: 1 hour + 1 hour per three levels

Saving Throw: Fortitude

Spell Resistance: No

The victim is entitled to a single saving throw. If

they fail, then they get hit by a single drop of

acid each round for the duration of the spell.

Each drop does 1HP of damage. The direction

of the drop is always random. Thus the drop

could come from above, below or sideways. If

the hit points are healed, the spell keeps

coming. The acid drop only strikes the original

target. If the target is immune to damage from

acid for one reason or another, then they are

not affected by this spell. A Dispel Magic will

remove the effects.

Material Component: A pair of fish lips.

Partial Polymorph

Transmutation

Level: Sor/Wiz 4

Components: V, M, S

Casting Time: 1 standard action

Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)

Target: One creature

Duration: Permanent

Saving Throw: Fortitude negates

Spell Resistance: Yes

Material Component: A vial of acid

Evil Twin

Conjuration (Creation)

Level: Sor/Wiz 6

Components: V, S, M

Casting Time: 1 standard action

Range: 50 Feet + 1 Per Level of the Caster

Target: 1 Person

Duration: 1 Hour/Level

Effect: Creates a duplicate of the targeted

creature that will make life miserable for them.

Saving Throw: Will

Spell Resistance: Yes

This spell transforms 20% of a creature as per

the Polymorph spell. However, its intent is

hostile as per Baneful Polymorph. The size of

the creature cannot be altered in any way,

merely the immediate effect. A limb

transformed into that of another creature may

theoretically gain a bonus from strength,

dexterity etc, but only if applicable to the new

creature they are transformed into, and only up

to +2. Generally speaking, 20% means a limb

or the head if the creature has one. If the

target of the spell has their head transformed,

they gain any extraordinary abilities and

senses of that form (but in the head area only).

If the new form would result in the immediate

physical death of the victim as a direct result of

the spell (such as giving them a fish head), the

change will only be cosmetic. The effect of the

spell may duplicate that of a smaller creature,

but it will not affect the targetÓs actual size (i.e.

an Ogre can be given the head of a duck, but

the ogreÓs head would still be the size of an

Ogre, not a duck.)

This spell conjures a creature with an identical

appearance to the target creature. It is directly

under the command of the caster, and will

obey his verbal instructions. It possesses any

movement abilities of the original creature

(such as flight, burrowing etc), and all of their

original knowledge. Please note, that while the

creature has all of the knowledge of the original

creature, this in no way extends to spell casting

or combat abilities. The creature has 3HD, and

the same attributes as the target creature

(strength, intelligence, wisdom etc). It has the

same clothing of the victim of the spell but no

magical items etc. Unless otherwise instructed

by the caster of the spell, this mimic will

proceed to make life miserable for the original

by messing up their affairs, disappointing or

enraging their allies, or framing them for

crimes. Once the spell has ended the creature

vanishes in a puff of smoke.

Material Component: An Octopus Tentacle

Death by A Thousand Cuts

Conjuration (Creation) [Acid]

Level: Sor/Wiz 5

Components: V, S, M

Casting Time: 1 standard action

Range: Long (400 ft. + 40 ft./level)

Material Component: A blood stained mirror.

Casting Time: 1 standard action

Range: 25 Ft

Target, Effect, or Area: See text

Duration: 1 Day/Level

Saving Throw: Will; See Text

Spell Resistance: Yes

Worst Case Scenario

Enchantment [Enhancement]/Divination

[Future]

Level: Sor/Wiz 7

Components: V, S, M

Casting Time: 1 action or Special

Range: 25 ft or Special

Effect: Curses the individual to make

extremely bad choices

Duration: 1 day/level

Saving Throw: Will

Spell Resistance: Yes

This spell allows the victim a single Will save.

If they fail the save, the spell waits patiently for

the target to say, ÐI wishÑ. If they do, the spell

will give them what they wish for in the most

harmful way possible or simply give the exact

opposite of their desires, up to the parameters

specified in a Limited Wish spell. If the target

has not made a wish of any kind by the spells

duration, the target is merely shocked for 1d4

points of electrical damage per level of the

caster. The XP cost of the wish is taken from

the target, not the caster.

This spell is very difficult to detect. Only a

Detect Curse or 8 th level or higher Divination

spell will reveal its existence. A Dispel Magic

or Remove Curse may attempt to remove the

spell. The Target will make one of several bad

choices, one choice per level of the caster.

Each choice will lead to either a specific set of

circumstances chosen by the caster (e.g. ÐYou

will be eaten by Zombies!Ñ) or if no selection is

made then the circumstances will be the worst

imaginable by the target.

Material Component: Candy

Narration

Alteration (Transmutation)

Level: Sor/Wiz 9

Components: V, S, M

Casting Time: 1 standard action

Range: 400 Yards

Effect: Creates a narrator that mocks

everything that the character does.

Target: Person or Object

Duration: Permanent

Saving Throw: Will Save

Spell Resistance: Yes

Each choice will take the most probably course

of action to make the desired result occur. In

general, this should bring the target closer and

closer to doom each time. When they make

this choice, the target will automatically

rationalize the logic behind why they made it to

the best of their ability, firmly believing that the

choice that they made was the correct one. If

the circumstances that they have been

enchanted to move towards occur, then and

only then will the spell be lifted and the target

realize the error of their choices (though not

necessarily that they have been the victim of a

spell.)

The good news for the target is that they will

never feel lonely again. The bad news, is that

a disembodied voice will follow them, narrating

to the world and the target whatever they do.

On the surface, this sounds like very little in the

way of vengeance. But as time passes, the

narration begins to enact madness upon its

target, such that they begin to suffer a

cumulative Î1 penalty on all skills or other rolls

per week that they are under the effects of this

spell. Thus, eventually, the target will be

incapable of doing anything effectively at all. It

will know all of their thoughts, and embarrass

them at the most inopportune times. At times,

it may even seem to befriend the target, only to

betray them and mock them at a worse

opportunity. The spell is extremely difficult to

get rid of. Only a Wish, Miracle or epic level

spell may remove its effects. Upon the death

If the spell runs out of choices or time before

the specified event occurs, then it ends with no

other effects.

Material Component: A Coin Left in a Grave for

seven days and then unearthed.

or destruction of the target, one book per level

of the caster appears within a 10-mile radius of

the target. The book will include the story of

the target of the spell in the most mocking

fashion possible as if created by a Bard with a

perform check in ranks equal to the level of the

caster. It will only include the actions of the

target while under the effects of the spell.

Material Component: 20000 GP Diamond

Delightful Pain (11 th Circle)

Enchantment/Invocation (Imprisonment)

Spellcraft DC: 65

Components: V, S , M

Casting Time: 1 Hour

Range: Touch

Effect: Allows the caster to make items

invisible within a 1 mile radius/level of the

caster

Duration: As Binding method selected

Saving Throw: As Binding

Spell Resistance: As Binding

To Develop: Only the Jeshatan know their

own rituals, which involve techniques and

magics long lost to Mortals. A tome with the

spells of the Jeshatan might contain the

secrets of the ritual, but a mage would never

easily be able to easily create them on their

own. Even if they could create a spell that has

a similar effect, it would use entirely different

techniques.

Material Component: A book of any kind, which

is destroyed upon completion of the spell.

Epic Spells

Evil Twin, Greater (10 th Circle)

Conjuration (Twin)

Spellcraft DC:42

Components:V, S , M

Effect: Creates a more effective Evil Twin.

Duration: 1 Month/Level of Caster

Saving Throw: Will

Spell Resistance: Yes

To Develop: Only the Jeshatan know their

own rituals, which involve techniques and

magics long lost to Mortals. A tome with the

spells of the Jeshatan might contain the

secrets of the ritual, but a mage would never

easily be able to easily create them on their

own. Even if they could create a spell that has

a similar effect, it would use entirely different

techniques.

As Binding, save that the imprisoned subject is

also in perpetual agony. The spell inflicts pain

the likes of which no one but the subject

understands. If the subject is actually released

from imprisonment, they must make a Will

save to avoid permanent Insanity (as spell).

Material Component: Cotton

ItÓs a Terrible Life (12 th Circle)

Alteration [Enhancement]

Spellcraft DC:202

Components:V, S , M

Casting Time:1 Action

Range:400 ft

Effect: Transports subject to an alternate

Prime Material Plane of personal horror.

Duration: Permanent

Saving Throw: Will

Spell Resistance: Yes (Harmless)

This spell works exactly like the spell Evil Twin

in that it creates a duplicate that has the intent

of destroying the character. Aside from the

duration, the most significant difference is the

capability of the duplicate. The Evil Twin

retains the same stats as a duplicate created

by the Clone spell. Both the original and the

twin have a generic link between them, that

lets them know if either is living. If they are on

the same plane, they can each pin point their

location to within 1 mile of each other. At will,

the caster can erase the ÒevilÓ aspect of the

duplicate so that they retain a duplicate

consciousness of the original. However, the

magical construct remains under the complete

control of the caster. Particularly vicious

Jeshatan are known to keep multiple

duplicates around and erase their memories so

they can enjoy killing their foe multiple times.

To Develop: Only the Jeshatan know their

own rituals, which involve techniques and

magics long lost to Mortals. A tome with the

spells of the Jeshatan might contain the

secrets of the ritual, but a mage would never

easily be able to easily create them on their

own. Even if they could create a spell that has
