[QUOTE="Zhnov, post: 983655, member: 12424"] Feedback please on these beauty spells. I think the spell level is about right, compared to related spells of nearby levels. Thoughts? Is the Charisma-related effect about right? The duration of each is a key point that gives it value. I can see well-to-do noble ladies paying some shiny coin to have these spells cast on them... call it Trade Skills, I guess. Thanks, Orlic [B]Beauty[/B] Transmutation Level: Soc/Wiz 3 Component: V,S,M Casting Time: 1 action Range: Touch Duration: Permanent Target: One Creature Saving Throw: Will negates Spell Resistance: Yes This spell transforms the target creature into a more beautiful version of itself. Although its appearance improves, it is easily recognized as itself. An effect of this spell is to grant a competency bonus to Charisma checks of +1. This effect does not stack with other appearance-based magic bonuses to Charisma checks. The focus for this spell is a mirror of at least 50 gp value. [B]Divine Beauty[/B] Transmutation Level: Soc/Wiz 4 Duration: Instantaneous As [I]Beauty[/I], but the duration is instantaneous, and the competency bonus to Charisma checks is +2. This effect does not stack with other appearance-based magic bonuses to Charisma checks. [/QUOTE]
