Some spells, a childish character, and a self-deprecating player. What's not to like?

[Lela]

As long as each spell I've created has already been typed, I figured I'd put them out here. Feel free to peruse at your leisure and give any feedback that comes to mind.

There will be errors, both miner and major. I've only been studying the book since Saturday night (about 4 days). It's not recommended that anyone use these unless you give them a close look, though you are welcome to add them to your own game--not that I could stop you.

As for posting or printing, let's hold off on that for a bit. Once they've been given a closer look, I'll give my ok (so long as I'm referenced).

Now, on to the juicy bits. A couple things that should be noted about me, the character, and the campaign:

1. I've been DMing for a while and this is my first real go at a PC in, oh, about a year. I'm taking a break and fully intend to have fun with this. As such, my character will enjoy himself in every way he can.
2. He's Peter Pan/Puck based, appearing 12 years old and delighting in his youth and perceived immaturity. Why he's young has yet to be determined. I've considered the Move Time list. Any other suggestions would be appreciated (See Attachment for working draft of character sheet if you'd like more details).
3. Peter is not a letch, though it may appear so. As an example, he uses Peter's Busty Women, along with Grapes Are Good, to enjoy leaning back and being fed. Beyond that, it's all innuendo and the occasional prank.
4. He's a rather complex character who plays himself off as being simple. Like Puck, he views the rest of the world as both a toy and the most important thing in the universe. His choices, while seemingly random, always have a purpose. That includes spell names. You should notice the occasional vocabulary word you may need to look up. Additions or suggestions are certainly welcome.
5. All spell's names must be 3 words long (exceptions include extensions like "Lesser," "Greater," "Still," etc. Read the character sheet if you care why.
6. One of the two DMs has included the Seduction skill (as a separate skill) in the past. A couple spells are based off the assumption that it will be included. Note: Happily, we'll be using Diplomacy or Bluff, whichever is appropriote. I'll make the relevent changes below when I get the chance.
7. I'm dyslexic. Please point out any spelling, grammar, or coding errors you notice. I've spell checked and proofread but something always gets through.
8. Changes made since this began are in Dark Slate Blue and posted seperately.

Anything else that needs explaining will be put forth in an additional post and listed above.

Enjoy,

Peter’s Impertinent Playhouse

Peter's Twinkling Eyes, Greater

Well, I'm Safe
Move Space /Heal 1/Gen
Looking to make it a contingency spell (1 hour->1 day) with "Any on this plane".

 

[Primitive Screwhead]

That character sounds like a lot of fun!

And the spells are very well crafted, I may have to borrow a couple of them

Some typo's tho:

In Peter's Heavy Breathing, you refer to Fire damage vice Air damage

In Peter's Wonderous View, Lesser.. you copied the base spell's MP costs

In Protect the Fallen, is that an invisibility effect or a 'he looks like a mound of dirt' illusion?

I don't have my books handy, but I think Peter's Busty Women could be done with 4 MP, summoning 2 obediant CR 1/3 critters should not cost more than 1MP.

Look forward to seeing more! I may have to have Peter wander through my campaign world just for the reaction

 

[Marius Delphus]

<EDIT: Never mind.>

 

[Lela]

Changed the cost on Glory of Youth, Lesser

I'd listed it as Enhance Ability Score 5 MP. Which is both wrong and incomplete.

New Costs:

Costs: Enhance Ability Score (Cha) 3 MP, Enhance Ability Score (Dex) 1 MP, Duration 1 MP.

That character sounds like a lot of fun!

He has been! I've only played him once, on Saturday night, but I don't think I've enjoyed a character more in a long time--if ever.

And the spells are very well crafted, I may have to borrow a couple of them

Thanks, and you're welcome to do so. I'm a rather organized person with a need for everything to match up well, thus my attempt at being complete with every entry.

In Peter's Heavy Breathing, you refer to Fire damage vice Air damage

Thanks. New Entry:

Peter’s Heavy Breathing
Evoke Air 3/ Gen 2
Total MP: 5
Range: 30 ft, Discerning
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Reflex Half and Fortitude Partial
You create explosion of Air in a central point, dealing 3d6 pts of damage (Reflex Half).

For every 5 pts the creature fails its saving throw, the creature moves an additional 5 ft. Creatures who move more than 10 ft fall over as if tripped.

The caster must choose 5 creatures who are affected by this spell. Costs: 1 MP Mild Side Effect (Knockback), 2 MP Air Damage, 1 MP Discerning, 1MP Range.

In Peter's Wonderous View, Lesser.. you copied the base spell's MP costs

There isn't a Peter's Wondrous View, Lesser. I assume you're refering to Peter's Wondrous View having Peter's Perfect View's MP costs. Fixed.

New Entry:

Peter's Wondrous View
Move Air 4 / Gen 1
Total MP: 5
Range: Touch
Duration: 10 Minutes
You grant a creature touched a fly speed equal to their base speed with average maneuverability. Costs: Move Air 4 MP, Duration 1 MP.

In Protect the Fallen, is that an invisibility effect or a 'he looks like a mound of dirt' illusion?

Should be Invisibility. That way it's useful to those of us not laying on the ground too. Thanks. Fixed.

New Entry:

Protect the Fallen
Illusion Shadow 3/Heal 1/Gen 0
Total MP: 4
Range: Touch
Duration: 1 Minute
The affected creature is protected by invisibility and is healed 1d6 HP. If the affected creature deals damage to, or casts a spell and has it resisted by, another creature, that creature is allowed to attempt to disbelieve automatically, with a +4 bonus. Designed to protect allies who’ve been sent into unconsciousness, this spell proves useful in other situations. Costs: 3 MP Complex Visual Illusion, 1 MP Curing.

I don't have my books handy, but I think Peter's Busty Women could be done with 4 MP, summoning 2 obediant CR 1/3 critters should not cost more than 1MP.

It lists 1/2 but not 1/3rd. I just used the table for 1/2. Would the women be considered 1/3?

Look forward to seeing more! I may have to have Peter wander through my campaign world just for the reaction

He's great. I'll have to give a description of the interegation scene we had. That was just fun. The look on the DM's face when I asked if our prisoner had chest hair. . .

 

[John Q. Mayhem]

You spend twenty years learning the spell that makes nude virgins appear in your bedroom, and then you're so poisoned by quicksilver fumes and half-blind from reading old grimoires that you can't remember what happens next...

Seemed applicable

 

[Lela]

Seemed applicable

LOL, thanks John. Gotta love Terry Pratchett.


Well, one of the DMs and I just finished talking and we've come to the conclusion that Peter is part fey. Amongst a rich supply of background material to pull from (such as sleeping habits) it will grant a +2 racial bonus to Cha. Yey crunchy bits.

He skimmed the spells and, having used EoM before, found them to work perfectly both for the campaign and character. We play again on Saturday, where I will hopefully write more spells and refine the character a touch more. I just need to find somewhere to get him printed out. . .

In the mean time, any other feedback (or even spell ideas) you guys can offer, as always, are appreciated.

 

[Lela]

Couple more spells I came up with last night. The name's were a joke my DM tossed out but I figured they suited Peter's personality.

Extreme Orgasmic Bliss
Charm Humanoid 7/Gen 1
Total MP: 8
Range: 30 ft
Duration: 1 Minute
Saving Throw: Will Partial
HD Threshold: 14
The creature is filled with uncontrollable joyous spasms, falling prone. The subject can take no actions but is not considered helpless. If the target succeeds at his save, he suffers the moderate Happiness effect (pg 39) or Joyous Orgasmic Bliss. If he succeeds by 5 or more he is unaffected.

The target does not receive a new save each round and does not realize his his actions were unusual. If someone points it out, they receive a save, with a +2 bonus. Costs: Strong Happiness 4 MP, Subtle Charm 3 MP, Range 1 MP.

Joyous Orgasmic Bliss
Charm Humanoid 5/Gen 0
Total MP: 5
Range: 30 ft
Duration: 1 Minute
Saving Throw: Will Partial
HD Threshold: 10
The creature is filled with great joy. The subject finds it difficult to take any aggressive action, suffering a -2 on weapon attack and damage rolls. Others receive a +10 bonus to Diplomacy checks with the creature. If the target succeeds at his save, he suffers the weak Happiness effect (pg 39). If he succeeds by 5 or more he is unaffected.
The target does not receive a new save each round and does not realize his his actions were unusual. If someone points it out, they receive a save, with a +2 bonus. Costs: Moderate Happiness 2 MP, Subtle Charm 3 MP.

 

[Lela]

In Peter's mind, the following is the cruelist spell you can place on anyone. He uses it only on those he really, really, hates. And, thus far, that's no one.


Onset of Ennui
Charm Humanoid 7/Gen 2
Total MP: 9
Range: 30 ft
Duration: 10 Minutes
Saving Throw: Will Partial
HD Threshold: 14 HD
A feeling of the purest boredom overwhelms the target, causing them to lose interest in anything around them. The creature is considered stunned and can't act, loses Dex to AC, and takes an additional -2 penalty to AC.

Creatures do not receive a new save each round. If the target succeeds at his save by 5 or less, it is able to take mental actions only but still suffers the penalties listed above. If it succeeds by more than 5, it is unaffected. Costs: Charm Daze (Strong) 4 MP, Subtle Charm 3 MP, Range 1 MP, Duration 1 MP.


Suggested variations include making the duration 1 hour (Listed MP+2), or 1 day (Listed MP+7).

 

[RangerWickett]

*grin* Cool.

Perhaps a little childish, but . . . *grin*

 

[Lela]

RW, you understand the point entirely.

Anything in particular you like?
