Rather than stats for the Easter Bunny, I would prefer a listing of the most comprable spells to each of the 10 plagues (for Passover). For those who are unfamiliar with the holiday, here is a very brief summary, and a listing of the plagues:
Moses (a high level Cleric) asked the current Pharoah (A high level aristocrate, probably with some other classes in there) to release the Jewish people from slavery (the Pharoah was probably Lawful Evil, since he enslaved some of his population and used their labor to likely build his tomb, one of the larger pyramids in Egypt). The Pharoah refused. In return, Moses and Aaron (another high level cleric with a magic staff) sent plagues into Egypt. It was the last, and most fierce plague, the slaying of the first born, that finally made the Pharoah capitulate, and allow the followers of Moses (who seems to have had the leadership feat), the Jewish people, to leave Egypt. The Jews were spared from the last plague by spreading lamb's blood on their front doors, thereby identifying the house as a Jewish house, and the plague "PASSED OVER" the houses of the Jewish slaves (a ward of some kind?). The ten plagues are listed below:-
1. Blood (waters turned to blood. An illusion spell? It had a very wide effect, and the fish died, and the water was undrinkable for weeks, so perhaps something more powerful? Poison spell?)
2. Frogs (a summon nature spell?)
3. Vermin (summon vermin spell)
4. Beasts (hordes of wild animals, a higher level summon nature spell again?)
5. Pestilence (cause disease, on the cattle?)
6. Boils (cause disease on humans? Moses used some material components with this one I seem to recall)
7. Hail (various weather changing spells)
8. Locusts (insect plague)
9. Darkness (as spell, but with pretty wide range)
10. Slaying of First Born (pretty wide-spread harm spell, maybe something else, like Miricle?)
There are plenty of other spells involved with the story (like the parting of the red sea, the staff to snakes spell, etc...)
Any other contributions to this list?
