All Haste spells active within Close range of you are automatically suppressed.School of the Master Trigonometrist requires:  Knowledge (Architecture, Engineering, or Mathmatics) 12 Ranks, ability to cast at least 1 cone, 1 burst, 1 ray, 1 line and 1 wall, Widen Spell allows:  If you choose, at the time of casting, you can alter the effects of your spells as follows: - cone length may be halved or doubled, or anywhere between. - cone width may be altered from 180 degrees to 0 degrees (Line) - line or ray spells may be reflected off of surfaces that survive them.   You may choose at the time of casting whether the line reflects directly    back at you or at an identical angle to the angle of impact. - Sphere or Burst spells can produce a volumetric quantity of spell effect.   This effect fills a number of adjacent cubes equal to 4/3pi*r^3.You may deflect ranged touch attack spells with a held action and a Ray type  spell.  Make a ranged touch attack against an AC equal to DC of the target spell, even if it doesn't allow a saving throw.  If you hit, you prevent the Ray from striking its target.  You may choose to have either your ray or the deflected ray strike any target within range, as normal.  The other ray is lost.Your Wall type spells may be produced with up to three bends in them, of up to 90 degrees each.School of Rock requires: Ability to cast Stone to Flesh, Magic Jar, Statue, Contingency,Perform (min 1 Rank, max 3 Ranks) allows: If you turn a target to stone and have active Magic Jar & Statue spells, you may immediatly animate the stone creature via Statue and take control of it via Magic Jar, as a free action.  Your previous body remains stone.  You may switch between stone hosts as a free action, without eturning to the Magic Jar.  You may attempt to take over a non-stone host directly from a stone host, without returning to the magic jar.  If your host or magic jar is destroyed, you may return to any stone host within range.  If you are magically petrified, you may instead cast Statue as a free action.  While under a Statue type effect, you produce a discordant rumbling noise, causing all concentration checks within Medium range to be made at with a -2 profane penalty, and your unarmed attacks do an extra 1d6 sonic damage.School of Vrock requires: Ability to cast Dance of Ruin, Perform (1-3 Ranks), Empower Spell allows: When you use Empower Spell on Dance of Ruin, it has double effect.
