Druids

:Druids

   Druids in Mystic are not the descendants of an ancient magic
tradition, they are the creation of Neopagan Revivalists who have taken
the few known myths, writings and accounts of the original druids and
added large amounts of romanticism crossed with modern sciences to form
a new, slightly confusing (to the novice) and very different system of
understanding.

   Among themselves Druids INSIST that their members be certified within
their religion to be a Leader of a group. Their groups work rituals with
a large bonfire in the center of a diamond that they insist on calling a
circle. They wear formal robes or tabards in ritual work and gather in
groups as small as three and as large as 300. Despite their claims of
equality they tend to have male led groups.

   Although they are ecologically aware and concerned, they are not
afraid and encourage the use of technology (each group has at least one
member who has as their second tradition that of a technomage).

   Unlike many pagan groups they ACTIVELY solicit funds and seek to gain
new members thru discussion groups. They hold public rituals and make
general public nuisances of themselves as far as the hidden spellcasters
of the world are concerned. They consider it a RIGHT for all
spellcasters to practice their arts legally and as recognized religions
under the Constitution of the USA and usually charter their groves and
Homes as church property to avoid taxation. (They also get a large
number of 'silent partners' who become druid laymen so they can hide
their assets from the IRS etc.)

   Despite all this, it is estimated that all the various druid groups
in the USA make up about 1200 people in all that are actively trained in
the magical tradition and another 5000-7500 who are lay members
(non-casting) or simply 'silent partners'.

trapped mentally within it.

pool of energy and may even gain energy thru the link in some

does NOT assist against fire or ice based attacks, but will melt ice
within its realm (thus limiting and ice dart to 1 round of
effectiveness) if set properly or reduce HEAT damage by half from a
purely heat based attack. Others within the range will also be effected.

:Create_Campsite

   COST   : 15
   MODS   :  N

accommodate.

   The servants clear the area of debris, set up tents if present, set
up bedrolls, start a campfire, fetch water if available, tether horses
and mules, and dig a nearby latrine. The campsite will be so skillfully
prepared as to be only noticeable 50% of the time from outside of it due
to the blending with the surrounding terrain.

   The entire process takes about 10 rounds to be accomplished.

example to find a Dog, a cat or a horse are all viable. The range that
the spell can pick creatures within is a mile per RANK of the spell.

:Find_Familiar

   COST   : 20
   MODS   : N

This spell enables the caster to summon a familiar to act as his aide
and companion.  Familiars are typically small creatures, such as cats,
frogs, ferrets, crows, hawks, snakes, owls, ravens, toads, weasels, or
even mice.  A creature acting as a familiar can benefit a wizard,
conveying its sensory powers to its master, conversing with him, and
serving as a guard/scout/spy as well.  A wizard can have only one at a
time, and he has no control over what sort of creature answers the
summoning, if any at all come.

The creature is always magically intelligent and its bond with the
wizard confers upon it an exceptionally long life.  The wizard receives
the heightened senses of the familiar, which grants the wizard a bonus
to all surprise die rolls.

The druid has an empathic link with the familiar and can issue mental
commands at a distance of up to one mile.  Note that responses from
the familiar are fairly basic--which able to communicate simple thoughts,
these are often overwhelmed by instinctual responses.  Thus a ferret
spying on a band of orcs might lose its train of thought upon
sighting a mouse.  Certainly its communications to its master would be
tinged with fear of the "big ones" it was spying on!  The caster can see
through the familiar's eyes.

When the familiar is in physical contact with the druid, it gets the
wizards saving throws against special attacks.

   If the familiar dies, the druid must successfully roll an immediate
body check. If the familiar is an animal type then they lose 1 health
in damage from the loss.

   Unlike most spells, the finding of the familiar is actually a Rite,
When the druid decides to find a familiar, s/he must load a brass
brazier with charcoal.  When this is burning well,s/he adds incense and
herbs.  The spell incantation is then begun and must be continued until
the familiar comes or the casting time is finished.  The GM secretly
determines all results.  Note that familiars are not inherently magical,
nor does a dispell magic spell send them away,

   Deliberate mistreatment, failure to feed and care for the familiar, or
continuous unreasonable demands have adverse effects on the familiars
relationship with its master.  Purposely arranging the death of one's own
familiar incurs great disfavor from certain powerful entities, with dire
results.

within the spell range. The branch can twist but twenty degrees, and
then the diviner will feel a tug in the direction of the water. The
diviner can specify a minimum amount of water to seek (greater than the
amount in a human body, for example).

:Fire_Grenade

    COST   : 25
    MODS   : N

:Fire_Visions

     COST   : 25
     MODS   : N

This is cast upon a bonfire or other large fire source. The caster will
enter into a trance-like state watching the flames. They will then see
visions of their Celtic Gods and Goddesses and be told something of
importance to them. If they, at the start of the spell, state an
intended need from the visions, and make a roll vs Religion skill - if
successful they will find out what they need. Else they receive a random
vision or piece of information from their gods. Among other things this
is a means for a Druid to learn a new spell, expended experience when
knowledge is implanted upon them from their divinities....

:Flare

    COST   : 5

:Flavor_Food_&_Drink

   COST   : 3
   MODS   : R

This allows the caster to change the flavor of any food or drinking
substance, so that it may be more or less edible to those to consume it.
The flavoring can be as simple as the addition of a single spice to the
taste (ex: pepper) or as complex as a major change (Milk that tastes
chocolate, Beer that tastes like buttermilk, Wine that tastes like
blood). The effect does NOT change the nature of the Food or drink,
merely the flavor, so this spell cannot be used to smoke fresh fish or
to salt it (but can make such TASTE as such).

The taste effect becomes permanent unless countered by another casting
of the spell to change it again.

:Fog_Vision

   COST   : 3
   MODS   : D

Allows the caster to see clearly thru any smoke or fog as if it wasn't
there so it has no obscurement value.

   MODS    : R

With this spell the caster can force any shapechanger (even a
changeling) or polymorphed creature to instantly revert to their true

DROUGHT* spell instantly in the process.

:Grounding

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : D

This spell helps protector the caster on several levels. First it will
prevent ALL Electrical damage for the duration of the spell; second it

A Grove offers MANY benefits to a mage, and should be established in
secluded secluded locale to assist in its magics.

Within their grove a mage will be instantly alerted to ANY intrusion
into it by anyone or anything, and will know if they have come with
hostile intent. Anyone performing an attack, theft or casting against a
mage within their grove is -25% to do such, while the mage is at +25% to
perform any castings against them.

Meditation within ones own grove adds +1 power point per hour; All
spellcastings are at +25% to succeed (compounds with any other modifiers
to improve success).

To enter a grove without permission of the owner must be done as if
trying to face against a sanctuary spell, that is one must save vs INT

distance to them.

The Sanctum can be a maximum of 100 cubic yards per RANK of the spell.

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : N

This spell is only useful if the Shaman has Herbology. It allows them to
take any natural herb and multiply its normal affects a hundred fold.

poisonous becomes VERY poisonous and requires a save to avoid fatality
if consumed/injected, and so forth.

   Once enhanced the herb will remain enhanced.

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R

This spell allows the caster to find the location of a lost or stolen
item which they are familiar with (that is, they have held it in their
hands at some point in the past). The spell will give them a direction
and will lead them along that direction, with mental statements of
'warmer'/'Colder' until they reach it or until the spell expires. If the

detected at all.

:Magic_Eye

    COST   : 15
    MODS   : D

By means of this spell the caster, creates a "third eye" much like the
spell druid eye except that it remains in a specific location once cast.

such as some creature passing in front of it.  The second can be done
from anywhere on the same plane, by willing it to activate.  Once
activated the eye lasts its duration The "eye" sees as well as the
caster, if caster can see normally invisible so can the eye, magic
enhancements do not work through the Magic Eye, such as spectacles or
detect invisible. The mage, while concentrating will see thru the eye
clearly, when not, it becomes a ghostly mental image... If the caster
has more than one eye only one may be active - activating a second one
will end the first ones usage.

long as it is within the boundaries of the spell's area of effect, being
upto a 40 cubic feet in size per RANK of the Spell.

The illusion is visual and affects all believing creatures (undead are
immune) that view it. It does not create sound, smell, or temperature.
Effects that depend of these senses usually fail.  The illusion lasts
until struck by an opponent--unless the spellcaster causes the illusion
to react appropriately--or until the druid ceases concentration upon the
spell (due to desire, moving, or a successful attack that causes damage)
or due to its duration ending.  Creatures that disbelieve the illusion
see it for what it is.  Creatures believing the illusion are subject to
its effects.

thorns are created per RANK of the spell. A coordination roll is made by
the target against EACH thorn. A Failed roll means they were scratched
by the thorn and receive 1d10 poison damage (Dwarves and similarly
poison resistant creatures are unaffected by this attack in that they
will ONLY receive 1 point damage per thorn, period). ARMOUR does not
help vs this attack, but a SHIELD may be used to deflect the entire
attack if successful otherwise rule applies as above. Thorns are NOT
reusable.

:Pooka

    COST   : 25
    MODS   : N

A Pooka is a created spirit, in the shape of an animal or mythical
creature, which takes on an animal-like intelligence and obeys the
commands of its creator. Besides the initial energy cost to create it
the Caster also must spend permanently 1 Magic Capacity Point (or the
250 eps equiv) so that it will be self-sustaining.

The Pooka can be used as a guardian of a grove, of the creators home or
some such. It is primarily useful against Non-mundanes, But does affect
mundanes slightly by its presence. Non-Mundanes will become nervous in
its presence and may be 'spooked' into leaving the area (saves vs INT
being needed by them) from a mild fear effect.

charmed, held or entrapped. The Druid MUST sacrifice to them on the FULL

damage taken each round from a single attack form.  Up to five points

suit their own desires and needs. The wood can be reformed, but its mass

into a large bowl (the metal parts would fall off in the process), a
plank might be made into a quarterstaff, a table could be made into a

    MODS   : D,R,T

Allows the caster or subject beings to move consistently at maximum
speed. This means they get a +20 to all initiative rolls.

    MODS   : D,R,T

Places an auras around the caster or a target being that protects
against ALL damage causing spells aimed directly at them (Does not block
non-damaging spells or AREA EFFECTS), reducing their damage to MINIMAL -

smaller into dangerous traps that activate when stepped on. DURATION is
not used with this spell. Each of the affected stones will, when a
weight of 20 lbs or greater presses upon them, have nasty spikes
protrude from their surface like caltrops of a larger size. These will
do 2d10 damage each when stepped on. The spikes are stone in nature,
extensions of the rock, and remain outward after being sprung. They
cannot be reused.

:Starlight

    COST   : 3
    MODS   : D

This spell illuminates an area as a cloudless outdoor night sky filled
with stars.  This light is pale and weak, and dilutes vision mostly to
black and white.  Full visual acuity is possible only out to a range of
10 yards, but general identification can be made out to 20 yards.

Stationary figures can be made out at 40 yards, and movement detected
out to 80 yards.  Intervening cover will, of course, reduce sighting
distances accordingly.  This light does not interfere with infravision,
and there are ample shadows within the area of effect to hide in.  The
illusionary component of the spell creates the appearance of an actual
starry night sky.

:Sterilize

   COST   : 5
   MODS   : R

This spell, only recently developed, is used to deal not with beings but
with objects. It allows the quick killing of any germs or disease
oriented spells and effects on an object, preventing them from spreading
diseases, plagues etc. It is often used on medical tools, clothing and
the like used with a diseased patient. Each additional RANK allows
another object to be affected by the casting.

:Stinking_Cloud

    COST   : 12
    MODS   : D,R

When a stinking cloud is cast the mage causes a billowing mass of
nauseous vapors to come into being in a 10' radius circle at the point
of targeting (additional 10'/Rank of spell). Any creature within the
cloud (except those who cannot smell or breathe) are helpless as long as
they remain inside the cloud, retching and coughing. Once outside the
cloud it takes a full round before the victim of such to be able to act
other than movement.

The cloud remains for the duration, unless blowing away by breezes etc

:SunScreen

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : D,R,T

It prevents the hindrance to eyesight caused by extremely bright sun by
partially polarizing the subjects eyes when in extreme light (It also
protects against all FLASH type effects that blind momentarily by bright
light) and also prevents skin burning problems from extreme sun. It has
also proved useful to mages in the Desert or Wastelands areas where the
sun is VERY direct and it helps against snow blindness too.

:Taunt

    COST   : 15
    MODS   : D,R

A taunt spell enables the caster to jape and jeer effectively at a
single type of creature with Intelligence. The caster need not speak the
language of the creatures.  His words and sounds have real meaning for
the subject creature or creatures: challenging, insulting, and generally
irritating and angering the listeners.  Those failing to save vs. Magic
rush forth in fury to do battle with the spellcaster.  All affected
creatures attack the spellcaster in melee if physically capable of doing
so, seeking to use body or hand-held weapons rather than missile weapons
or spells.

Separation of the caster from the victim by an impenetrable or
uncrossable boundary (a wall of fire, a deep chasm, a formation of set
pikemen) causes the spell to break.  If the caster taunts a mixed group,
he must choose the type of creature to be affected.

If used in conjunction with a ventriloquism spell, the creatures may
attack the apparent source, depending upon their Intelligence, a
leader's presence, and so on.

:Trackless

    COST   : 1
    MODS   : D,R,T

This spell prevents the caster or target from leaving footprints of any
kind, including the heat traces visible by infravision, as their
appendages do not quite touch the surface they are passing over, and
thus leave no prints or residue.

:Transfer_Energy

      COST   : 1
      MODS   : D,R,T

This allows mages to transfer energy to each other by choice. Those
involved MUST be willing. The being losing the energy decides how much
they transfer and to who. Energy cannot be transferred to a non-mage
being unless they are magical in nature. Only RAW energy *not HUNG
spells* can be transferred this way.

:Treacherous_Tripwire

    COST   : 10
    MODS   : D

One wire (up to 10' long) can be stretched across a hall, or such.  The
wire becomes camouflaged -- undetectable w/o find traps.  The first
creature to attempt to pass must save vs. coordination or be caught when
the wire springs free.  The magical wire will twine tightly about the
ankles of its victim, tripping him. If the victim saves then the trap
remains set until triggered or until its duration expires.

It must then be tediously untangled (or sawed loose) which will take at
least 3-6 rounds under ideal conditions.  If hacked loose in combat, it
will take 3 rounds.

Once untangled/broken the wire will fade away into nothingness.

:Tree_Speech

    COST   : 25
    MODS   : D

This allows the caster to establish a mental conversational link with a
Tree to request of it information or to provide information to it. Thus
a mage might learn of all who passed by such a tree, who caused it harm,
how long since an event occurred etc.

The tree can either speak in words or in images to the caster, dependent
on its own inclination. The spell works on anything from a seedling to a
full grown tree but fails against dead wood.

:Tree_Swipe

    COST   : 5
    MODS   : D,R,T

By use of this spell, the caster will control a tree branch for the
duration of the spell.  The caster can make the branch wave, attack, fan
a small breeze, etc.  If the branch attacks, it does so with a
coordination of 75% and will do 1d10+2 damage. This spell works only on
full size trees.

If multiple TARGETS are purchased they can only be applied to other
branches on the same tree.

:Unsprain_Limb

    COST   : 15
    MODS   : N

This will remove the swelling, pain and detrimental effects of a
sprained ankle or wrist on the caster or touched being.

:Voice_of_the_Bat
         
    COST   : 12 
    MODS   : D

This spell grants the caster the ability to use sonar to "see" and move
safely at a normal rate in the dark, even in magical darkness.  The
caster can tell size and general shape of objects up to 10 yards away in
any direction s/he faces.  The caster must actively concentrate to "see"
her/his surroundings, but merely ceasing concentration does not end the
spell, and the caster may resume the sonar again within the spell's
duration.

:Wall_Of_Thorns

     COST   : 25
     MODS   : R

Castable only outdoors on open dirt or natural stone, or indoors on a
surface of Wood (floor) this spell causes huge thorny plants to rise up
in a circle 10' radius per RANK and 5' tall (+1 foot per rank) Maximum
(casters choice) around the selected target point on the surface.

This surrounds the area. Anything trying to pass through must do 25
points of damage with spell, fire, or cutting/chopping weapons to a
section of it to break thru. Anything trying to climb over it or being
thrown against it in some way or otherwise coming into contact with the
