[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 6460208, member: 57383"] We shouldn't forget it also covers "reversible" spells. Anyhow, I'll try roughing something out... [B]Mirror Spells:[/B] Kamerel mirror magic includes a special class of spells called mirror spells. A mirror spell is a spell that can be cast as one of two spells whose effects are the opposite of each other. For example, [I]enlarge person/reduce person[/I] is a mirror spell that acts as either [I]enlarge person[/I] or [I]reduce person[/I] when cast. A kamerel spellcaster can use one mirror spell at each spell level they can cast, but they can use each spell level's mirror spell multiple times if they have more than one spell slot at that level. Each "half" of a mirror spell is usually a spell of the same level, but if the halves have different levels the mirror spell has the same spell level as the highest level half. For example, a [I]light/darkness[/I] mirror spell would be a second level spell, since it combines the 2nd level [I]darkness[/I] spell and the 0 level [I]light[/I] spell. If a mirror spell has material or focus components, it requires the components of both of its halves to cast. Their are two main categories of mirror spell. A [B]reversible[/B] mirror spells are mirror spells that combine two existing spells whose effects cancel each other out. For example, a [I]cure wounds[/I] spell cancels the effect of a [I]cause wounds[/I] spell, [I]cause blindness/deafness[/I] cancels [I]remove blindness/deafness[/I], [I]freedom[/I] cancels [I]imprisonment[/I], [I]stone to flesh[/I] cancels [I]flesh to stone[/I] and so on. A kamerel spellcaster can combine any such pair of spells into a single mirror spell. An [B]invertible[/B] mirror spell is an existing spell with the Light, Darkness, Fire or Cold descriptor that can be cast as a spell with the opposite descriptor. For example, a fireball/coldball mirror spell can be cast as a Fire spell doing fire damage or a Cold spell doing cold damage. A sunbeam/darkbeam mirror spell can be a Light spell that does double damage to creatures sensitive to sunlight or a Darkness spell that does double damage to creatures sensitive to total darkness.
