Personal spells that "radiate" out...

[RigaMortus]

I was reading the post about the Energy Vortex spell and I was wondering, are there any spells/powers with "Target: Personal" but sort of radiate out from the caster? The Energy Vortex spell is close, but it doesn't have a target, it has an area. I'm looking for something with a similiar effect, but specifically has "Target: Personal".

Close... But the key here is, it HAS to have the "Target: Personal" tag in the description.

There are no such spells... Closest from what you describe is "Range: Personal".

What's it for, anyway?

Just thinking of a few spell combinations...

For example, using the Permanent Spell feat (3.0 T&B) you could walk around 24 hours with an emination. But I beleive one of the requirements for Permanent Spell is that the spell has to be Target: Personal.

The other idea I had was using a Familiar. When you cast a spell on yourself that has "Target: Personal", you can choose to have the spell effect your familiar as well. So if there was a spell that, for example, did damage within a 20' radius of you, it would go off twice (once for you, and once for your familiar). But again, the requirement is for it to be a "Target: Personal" spell.

The actual verbiage should be:
Range: Personal
Target: You

Maybe something in this thread can you help you out?

Aha! NOW I get it. You are talking about Persistent Spell , originally in T&B and which has been updated in the Player's Guide to Faerûn.

It is now a +6 spell level adjustment, and the requirement is a spell with "personal range or fixed range".
