[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 2409837, member: 20323"] Great comments, Cheironmancer! I'd like to make it 8th level [i]at the highest[/i]. Confession = mind blank (8th) [i]Yes, though it only works only in regard to spoken lies. And you must willingly confess in the flame's presence. I think these two limits bring it down at least a level. I'll say it's adjusted level is 7th.[/i] Deev bane = holy sword (4th) [i]Yes, and it is limited to outsiders, not any kind of evil. I think this brings it down a level, so it's adjusted to 3rd.[/i] Oathbinding = geas (5th) [i]Yes. I'll edit it to limit the number of uses it has to 1/month per character, and a character may only have 1 oath sworn to any Vrahran Fire at a given time. In addition, the geas may only be taken willingly, which I think reduces the level of the spell by at least 2 levels. The +1 bonus, however increases it by at least 1 level. Also, I'll limit it to LG, LN, or N, or NG persons, reducing its level by 1. About 3rd level.[/i] Fiery visions = divination (4th) [i]Yes, though I definitely think it's more limited, probably like a 2nd level spell.[/i] [b]Net Level of All Boons:[/b] 7+3+3+2 =15th [b]Weaknesses[/b] 1. I am going to include a revision which states that: "Should the main Vrahran Fire go out, anyone benefitting from one of these 4 boons loses the benefit, and they are immediately aware the fire went out." And all it takes to extinguish it is a standard action, overturning the brazier containing the coals or what have you. (-2 levels) 2. The only place you can find the material component is in a large city, and the coals have to be kept hot the whole time, carrying them from the smithy to the spellcasting site. In addtion, you must have a special brazier, cauldron, or other holding device (worth 650 gp) which must be purified in holy water (25 gp) and enchanted with a [i]bless[/i] spell. The brazier weighs about 400 pounds, and the Vrahran fire will be snuffed out if anyone but a Lawful Good person moves it from its holy resting place. (-2 levels) 3. What sort of XP cost should be included in the spell? I'm thinking 3000 XP. (-3 levels ??) I came up with an 8th level spell after doing this. I totally fudged these values, but I don't know a better system. :\ [i]EDIT: Oh! I could use the Intelligent magic item creation rules! Dummy! [/i] [/QUOTE]
