[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 8800415, member: 29398"] Maybe not that long. Let me give this a try here... ===================== [B]Unlight[/B] - Level: [class]-3. School: illusion. Range 0. Area of effect: 50' radius. Casting time: 3 rounds. Duration 1 hour. Save n/a. Components VSM. Temporarily shuts off light sources within area. Light sources brought into area are darkened; sources removed from area resume casting light as normal. Light from sources outside area behaves normally thus this spell has no effect on daylight, moonlight, etc. nor on light from a distant bonfire or nearby lighthouse. Magical light sources of level above this spell's cast level are unaffected. Fires in area continue to burn but cannot be seen; in no other way does this spell affect darkvision or vision using external light. Note that as the spell's range is 0, susceptible light sources on the caster will always be affected until the caster moves out of the area. Caster cannot end this spell early, and although an illusion its effects are real and cannot be disbelieved. The material component is a small gob of black goo or piece of black charcoal, squashed beneath caster's foot during casting; [I]Dispel Magic[/I] on this will end spell. ====================== A bit long, but I've seen far worse. :) Thoughts? Note I made the casting time 3 rounds to emphasize this is not really a combat-oriented spell. EDIT to add: I just stole this spell for later potential appearance in my game, under the name [I]Dustyboots' Unlight[/I]. [/QUOTE]
