[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 6513680, member: 57383"] What the blazes? I could have sworn I'd change it. Correcting name of [URL="https://www.enworld.org/index.php?POSTs"][B][I]transport mirror[/I][/B][/URL]. Updating [B][URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?p=6411871#post6411871"]Kamerel Mage Working Draft[/URL][/B]. So what's next? They also need a reduce spell that works on monsters and can shrink a creature two size categories to account for their "mirror kidnapping" trick. It would be simplest just folding it all together as one spell: [B][SIZE=4]Greater Reduce[/SIZE][/B] [B][I]Transmutation[/I][/B] [B]Level:[/B] Sor/Wiz 3? [B]Components:[/B] V, S, M [B]Casting Time:[/B] 1 round [B]Range:[/B] Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) [B]Target:[/B] One creature [B]Duration:[/B] 1 min./level (D) [B]Saving Throw:[/B] Fortitude negates [B]Spell Resistance:[/B] Yes This spell functions like [I]reduce person[/I], except that the effect is not restricted by creature type. If your caster level is 7th or higher, you can choose to shrink a creature by two size categories instead of one: reducing its height, length, and width to one-fourth; dividing its weight by 64; and giving it a +2 size bonus to Dexterity and a –4 size penalty to Strength (minimum of 1). The target's new size will also change its size modifiers to attack rolls, AC, and other combat actions such as grapple and bull rush. If an [I]enlarge person[/I] is cast on a creature [I]greater reduced[/I] by two size categories it partially counters the effect so the creature is only diminished by one size category (as per [I]reduce person[/I]). [I]Material Components:[/I] A pinch of powdered iron. If we were to follow the example of the SRD ([I]charm person[/I], [I]charm monster[/I] and [I]dispel magic[/I] & [I]greater dispel magic[/I]), it'd require multiple spells - e.g.: [B][SIZE=4]Enlarge Monster[/SIZE][/B] [B][I]Transmutation[/I][/B] [B]Level:[/B] Sor/Wiz 3? [B]Components:[/B] V, S, M [B]Casting Time:[/B] 1 round [B]Range:[/B] Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) [B]Target:[/B] One creature [B]Duration:[/B] 1 min./level (D) [B]Saving Throw:[/B] Fortitude negates [B]Spell Resistance:[/B] Yes This spell functions like [I]enlarge person[/I], except that the effect is not restricted by creature type. [B][SIZE=4]Reduce Monster[/SIZE][/B] [B][I]Transmutation[/I][/B] [B]Level:[/B] Sor/Wiz 3? [B]Components:[/B] V, S, M [B]Casting Time:[/B] 1 round [B]Range:[/B] Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) [B]Target:[/B] One creature [B]Duration:[/B] 1 min./level (D) [B]Saving Throw:[/B] Fortitude negates [B]Spell Resistance:[/B] Yes This spell functions like [I]reduce person[/I], except that the effect is not restricted by creature type. [B][SIZE=4]Greater Reduce Person[/SIZE][/B] [B][I]Transmutation[/I][/B] [B]Level:[/B] Sor/Wiz 3? [B]Components:[/B] V, S, M [B]Casting Time:[/B] 1 round [B]Range:[/B] Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) [B]Target:[/B] One creature [B]Duration:[/B] 1 min./level (D) [B]Saving Throw:[/B] Fortitude negates [B]Spell Resistance:[/B] Yes This spell functions like [I]reduce person[/I], except that it can instantly diminish a humanoid creature by two size categories instead of one, reducing its height, length, and width to one-fourth and dividing its weight by 64. The target attributes gains a +2 size bonus to Dexterity and a –4 size penalty to Strength (minimum of 1). Their new size will also change their size modifiers to attack rolls, AC and other combat actions such as grapple and bull rush. An [I]enlarge person[/I] spell partially counteracts [I]greater reduce person[/I], causing the target to only be reduced by one size category (effects as per [I]reduce person[/I]). [B][SIZE=4]Greater Reduce Monster[/SIZE][/B] [B][I]Transmutation[/I][/B] [B]Level:[/B] Sor/Wiz 4? [B]Components:[/B] V, S, M [B]Casting Time:[/B] 1 round [B]Range:[/B] Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) [B]Target:[/B] One creature [B]Duration:[/B] 1 min./level (D) [B]Saving Throw:[/B] Fortitude negates [B]Spell Resistance:[/B] Yes This spell functions like [I]greater reduce person[/I], except that the effect is not restricted by creature type.
