    Ah, I really don't know about level 1 and 9...all I really want is a magic missle where you can choose multiple targets :(.

    Well, for level 9, a nice spell would be "Explode" kinda like what jon irenicus used on those cowls. It should have a -4 penalty to their saving throws, and a casting time of 1.

    heh heh, I feel for some reason, the need to throw my two cents in.

    I already HAVE written spells. You can download them at sp's BG2 Cheats, hacks, and editors page. Please DO!

    If I were to write MORE spells

    LV1 Searing Soul, target mage loses two random memerized spells.

    LV9 Gravity Well, creates a gravity well for one round per 3 levels of the caster up to 25 that pulls all enemies to a single point and deals 1d5 crushing damage for every second in the well. Save ferses petrification to atempt to get out of the well.

    (Note I decided I really will make these spells. they should be ready in a week, anyone who want their spells made, contact me;))

    Or something like that

    Ok does anyone remember Gary Gygax's Mythus Dangerous Journies? (which is now out of print) There is a really cool spell that I like from that system. My memory is not so great and I only own the core rulebook not the magic book, so please forgive me if I am a little off.
    Juxtposition (forgive my spelling)
    This spell is cast and able to be released at any time within a given time period. When released the spell places you in the best posible position to deal a devastating blow with a damage modifier to the target. I think only using a dagger, but still a good amount of damage is incurred. Possibly in this system it was a level 7 spell. A cool spell! :evil:

    [​IMG] Lvl 1) Magic burst. Similar to magic missle, but instead of multiple missles, it just thrusts a bolt of energy at the enemy, causing 1d6 hp of damage per three levels, up to 12d6 at level 36. What really seperates this from magic missle, however, is that it is indirect, so an attack roll would be needed to hit. It would act like a missle weapon he/she is proficient with, and any bonuses to missle attacks would be accepted (such as the bracers of archery).
    No saving throw other than the attack roll, and magic resistance is effective.

    Lvl 9) Mind wipe. Removes all spell from an individual enemy, but only if they fail a saving throw vs spells. Unfortunatly, it also removes any mind affecting spells, such as confusion, charm, fear etc. If teh spell is successful, the person effected will stand confused (who wouldn't?) at what just occured, but can rejoin the frey after one round.
     
  9. :lol:
    I'm not mocking you Ara, but I found it ironic that in the Player's Handbook, a spell called Ethereal Jaunt exists, and pretty much does what your spell Ethereality does, but is a level 4 spell. Just had a silent chuckle to myself, if you don't mind.

    Well, I have never even held a Player's handbook, so please excuse my ignorance :)

    But here is a spell I'd really, really like to see: Snowball! Similar to Fireball, but does cold damage instead. Or is it already done?

  14. Sorry, Ara.

    Level 9 spell: Suppress Powergaming

    This spell effectively suppress all powergaming in a 20-foot radius for 1 turn/level, including Offenseive Magic Resistance spell, Fake Talk strategy, Rolling for stats for hours on end, Reducing INT/WIS/CHA to 3, being Lawful Good just for the reputation, and using SK. All Kensai/Mages must save vs. spell or be stunned for 2 rounds/caster level.

    Mind Duel: (9th mage/ 7th Cleric)
    CC: 8
    Duration: Special
    Save: None
    SR: No

    When cast on an enemy spellcaster, the caster and the target engage in a mind duel. Both players roll a 1d20, and add their INT, WIS, CHA modifiers, (mods are +1 for every 2 pts above 10) and their levels. The player with the higher total gains a number of spell levels equal to the difference between the two modified rolls. These spell levels can be used to cast any spell the mage/cleric has memorized, (up to seventh level) with one half the casting time, and no penalty for disruption. (Except for loss of spell levels.)

    When cast, both the caster and the target are surrounded by a force shield similar to an Otiluke's resiliant sphere for 3 rounds while they duel. After the three rounds, the winner is stunned for one round, while the loser is knocked uncouncous for five rounds, and loses a number of random spells equal to the number of spell levels the victor gained.

    If however, the caster or the target perishes during the duel for some reason (such as poison), then both spellcasters are killed.

    You may want to edit your spell a bit so that ToB players unfamiliar with 3e DnD can understand certain parts of your "Mind Duel" spell, Grah'huk. :)

    But it sounds like a cool spell anyways.

  18. Level One Spell: Summon Lawyer
    1 Turn/Level

    The Lawyer does absolutly nothing, but WILL use any party potion or other useful items when he is wounded. When the battle is won, he takes 80% of the Gold and all the nice equipment. The party's gold minuses by 400.

    There is absolutely no sense what so ever in that spell.
