Okay, I love these things from Unearthed Arcana so I wanted to test out my incantation creating muscles. I thought it would be a neat idea to see some of the fun ideas that fellow ENWorlders could come up with. So, I guess I'll start.
Creeping Mist of Allishon
Necromancy
Effective Level: 6th
Skill Check: Knowledge (arcana) DC 20, four successes; Knowledge (religion) DC 20, two successes.
Failure: Death
Components: V,S,M,XP,SC,B
Casting Time: 60 minutes.
Range: Touch
Duration: 4 rounds
Save: See Below
Spell Resistance: Yes
This incantation calls forth a black cloying mist infused with negative energy, spreading out from the primary caster. This mist, once created, moves away from the caster to bring death to all nearby sentient creatures. The incantation can only be cast at night, and the mist immediately disperses if the sun rises. Once the incantation is complete, the dark mist fills an 60 foot spread around the caster. Any creature (except the casters, see below) within the mist immediately receives a negative level. Each subsequent round, the area expands by 30 feet up to a 150 ft spread on round 4 before dispersing on round 5. Anyone who dies because of these negative levels rises up as a wraith 1d4 rounds later. These wraiths are not necessarily under the control of the caster.
Failure: The caster that rolls the second failure dies and rises as a wraith 1d4 rounds later.
Material Component: An orb of black onyx (worth at least 1000 gp) serves as the focal point of the spell. Upon completion, the orb turns into a fine powder carried by the expanding mist.
XP Component: 500xp
Backlash: Every caster involved in the process also suffers 1 negative level upon completion. Any caster who dies from this backlash rises as a wraith 1d4 rounds later.
Extra Casters: 12 other casters must cooperate with the primary caster, chanting litanies to the gods of death.
34 – 1 (Requires multiple skills) – 2 (Moderately restricted casting time) –2 (Expensive Material Component) –4 (12 Secondary Casters) –5 (XP Cost) –3 (Negative Backlash on secondary casters) +3 (Large area of effect) = 20
Let me know what you think on this. Let's see how many we can come up with!
