Character Creation
Rolling for Ability Scores
The 4d6-L method
Roll four six-sided dice (4d6). Discard the lowest die
and total the remaining three. Repeat this five more times,
and then assign the six numbers to the character's abilities
however you want.
This is a fast method that gives you a good character, but
you can still get low scores (after all, you could roll all ones
on all four dice!).
The Point-Buy Method
Characters start with a score of 9 on each ability score
and have 60 points to add to those scores. The cost of
improving a score by one increment is shown on the table
below.
Ability Costs
Ability
Score Adj Cost
2-3 -3 -3
4-5 -2 -2
6-8 -1 -1
9 0 0
10-12 0 1
13-15 +1 2
16-17 +2 3
18 +3 4
The Point-Pool Method
Roll three ten-sided dice (3d10) and add 60 points to it.
This is the number of points that the player may spend on
acquiring his character‟s ability scores. The cost of the score
is equal to the score itself. Therefore, a strength score of 18
costs 18 points to purchase.
This method still provides variation in overall power in
order to simulate a world where not everyone is created
equal, but allows the player full control of his ability scores.
Be aware that any point based method is prone to
min/maxing.
Special Destiny Roll (Optional)
Sometimes a hero is born with a special “something”;
Great strength, a unique magical item, a special power, etc.
This optional rule allows for that rare type of hero. When
the player makes a new character, roll 1d100, if the result is
a 1 then the player and DM work together to give the
character a special “something” that will be useful
throughout all of his levels.

Bard
Dragon Magazine #177
Prime Requisite: Dexterity.
Experience Bonus: 5% for Dexterity of 13-15, +10% for
Dexterity of 16-18.
Hit Dice: 1d4 per level up to 9 th level. Starting with 10 th
level, +2 hit points per level and constitution adjustments no
longer apply.
Maximum Level: 36.
Armor: Leather armor only.
Weapons: Any missile weapon; any one-handed melee
weapon.
Special Abilities: At 1 st level – Open Locks, Find Traps,
Remove Traps, Climb Walls, Move Silently, Hide in
Shadows, Hear Noise; at 4 th level – Read any normal
language 80%; at 10 th level – cast magic-user spells from
scrolls (10% chance of backfire). For the chances of success
for these abilities, see “Special Abilities” on pages 21-23 of
the Rules Cyclopedia.
Bards are an essential part of the Robrenn culture. They
are played using the thief character class as a starting point.
The bard must choose music, singing, and storytelling skills,
but he does not have the backstabbing and pick pocket
abilities (druids frown upon theft).
At 3rd level, the bard gains the charm person ability
once per day, as per the magic-user spell. He affects a
number of Hit Dice or levels equal to one-third his own
level (rounded down). The attempt requires the bard to
recite poems, sing, or play an instrument for three rounds.
He must make a skill check on the weakest of his three
mandatory skills. If he fails the skill check, his victims get a
+3 to their saving throws. The bard fails completely if
interrupted or wounded. Likewise, the bard may use this
ability to negate another bard's charm attempt.
3 of 75

At 9 th level, the bard may extend his charm ability to
intelligent monsters (except undead, as per the fourth-level
wizard spell, charm monster). At l5th level, his ability
extends to plants as well (as the seventh-level wizard spell,
charm plants). A successful saving throw vs. spells always
negates the charm.
The bard may use his charm ability to affect Morale
(either a +2 bonus to his companions, or a -2 to his
opponents, or their eagerness to fight (+1 to hit for his
companions, or -1 to hit for his opponents). These effects
are automatic after three rounds (no save).
The bard can make a living from his trade. He can earn
up 5 cp per person every time he sings, plays his music, or
tells stories in public (boost the reward to gold pieces if
performing for a noble). He must make the appropriate skill
check. If he fails; he gains nothing. If he succeeds, he makes
1 cp per person (+1 cp per point scored under his skill). For
example, a bard succeeding his skill check by a margin of
two points would make 3 cp per person. If he uses his charm
ability, assume he automatically succeeds, though if his skill
check failed this bard will not be viewed very positively by
his victims when the charm wears off.

Headsman (Thug)
D&D Master DM’s Book
Prime Requisite: Strength and Dexterity.
Experience Bonus: 5% for Dexterity of 13-15, +10% for
Dexterity of 16-18.
Hit Dice: 1d8 per level up to 12th level.
Maximum Level: 12.
Armor: Leather armor only.
Weapons: Bladed-weapons, ropes, and poisons.
Special Abilities: Thieves‟ abilities, surprise,
assassination, disguise, speak alignment tongues.
Headsmen (also called executioners) are humans
commonly employed by dominion rulers. They are trained
in the business of killing criminals who have received the
death penalty for any one of various crimes. Most
headsmen are skilled in the proper use of bladed weapons,
ropes, and poisons, and are able to execute criminals quickly
and neatly.
All professional headsmen belong to their own guild,
which is a branch of the Thieves‟ Guild. Headsmen keep
their true identities completely secret, wearing hoods or
disguises when engaged in professional activities. Many
own ordinary shops, and can seem to be perfectly ordinary
townsfolk.
Recently, a new secret organization began within the
Guild of Headsmen. These “new headsmen” hire
themselves out to adventuring parties to aid them in
eliminating evil. They are an energetic, adventurous lot,
looking for adventure and excitement. This is the most
likely type of headsman to become a player character.
4 of 75

A secret organization exists within the guild of
headsmen, and its members can be dangerous. These evil
headsmen enjoy their work too much, and offer their
services for open hire. Others call them assassins or thugs;
they call themselves the Pragmati (“the practical people”).

Unlike the Thieves‟ Guild, the Pragmati are not
supported by adventurers or rulers. They are sometimes
hired by NPCs, especially evil ones. However, PCs do not
normally contact these headsmen for any reason; their
organization is dangerous as either an enemy or ally. Thugs
are treacherous and self-serving, known to extort money
from their previous “clients” with threats of exposure,
kidnapping, or even murder.
Thugs often use poisoned weapons, and strongly prefer
stealth, treachery, and ambush to normal attacks. They
often use magical devices then attacking powerful
opponents; potions, rings, and miscellaneous items are
preferred. Thugs rarely use magic weapons, preferring
cheap but effective tools that could be easily left behind.
They never use spells, though they may hire (or even be
lead by) evil spell-casters.
Thugs usually retreat if damaged, and may even flee
even if merely discovered, depending on the situation. They
rarely attack adventurers, knowing well that magic and other
special attacks can be deadly. However, a group of thugs
may try to ambush a party if the chance for success is good,
especially if the party has recently been wounded in a
difficult battle. Sometimes thugs may be hired as guards, if
assured of high-level clerical assistance when injured or
slain, usually in disguise and often unbeknownst to the
bandits themselves.
Headsman Special Abilities
Headsmen know methods to kill quickly, neatly, and
silently. A headsman also has the same special abilities as a
thief of the same level; for example, a 6th level headsman
can climb walls with a 92% chance of success. Headsmen
use standard monster attack roll tables, not those for
characters. Headsmen use the thief saving throw table.
Surprise: A headsman may make preparations to
surprise a victim; if so, a roll of 1-3 (instead of 1-2)
indicates surprise. These preparations include disguise.
Success at moving silently (as the thief ability), and a strong
cord or edged weapon held ready, possibly while
successfully hiding in shadows.
Assassinate: If a prepared headsman gains surprise, the
victim may be slain with a single blow, regarolless of hit
points. No attack roll is made; instead the base chance of
success is 50%, modified by the difference in Hit Dice, as
follows: If the victim‟s level is greater than the headsman‟s,
subtract 5% per Hit Die; if the victim‟s level is less than the
headsman‟s, add 5% per Hit Die. If the headsman does not
gain surprise, a normal attack roll is made, and normal
damage is inflicted if the attempt succeeds. A successful hit
may also require the victim to make a saving throw vs.
poison if the headsman is using a poisoned blade.
Disguise: At first level, a headsman has a 66% chance of
disguising himself. The headsman‟s disguise ability
increases by 2% each level thereafter, until they reach 90%
at level 12.
Language: At 7th and 11th level a headsman may speak
another alignment language.

Identify Poison: At ninth level, a headsman can identify
a specific type of poison 80% of the time. This is
determined by a combination of visual, olfactory, tactile,
and taste tests.
Mystic (Option)
AD&D 1 st Edition Oriental Adventures
AD&D 2 nd Edition Complete Ninja’s Handbook
AD&D 2 nd Edition High-Level Campaigns
Anthony K. Harvey & Ed Gruenwald
In order to add more variety to the Mystic class one may
add martial maneuvers to a mystic‟s level progression. At
first level, the mystic must select a martial arts style. The
styles available are:
1. Hard style employs highly offensive movement,
focusing on the quick and efficient take down of
one‟s opponent. Practitioners of this style may
employ the magical bonuses listed under the
Mystic Unarmed Attack Equivalents Table as
actual bonuses to attack and damage rolls when
employing their martial arts.
2. Soft style utilizes an opponent‟s strength to its
advantage as opposed to direct resistance.
5 of 75

Practitioners of this style may use their Dexterity
adjustment instead of Strength adjustment when
making to hit and damage rolls with their unarmed
attacks (but not natural weapons like claws or
bites) or martial maneuvers. They may also re-roll
any failed saving throw once per day at level 6;
twice per day at level 11. The must accept the
results of the re-roll. The character may elect to use
his 2 nd use of the re-roll ability to re-roll the first
re-roll if necessary.
3. Balanced style uses a moderation of these two
philosophies in a search for balance between
aggression and passiveness. Practitioners of this
style gain an armor value of 1 at first level. This
value increases by one at levels 4, 8, 12, and 16.
The effects of Ironskin stack with this effect.
The mystic must also choose a principal method. This
selection represents the primary area of study that his
training focused on. The following selections are available:
1. Block (Hand)
2. Kick (Foot)
3. Lock (Body)
4. Movement (Legs)
5. Push (Hand)
6. Strike (Hand)
7. Throw (Body)
8. Vital Area (Hand/Foot)
9. Weapon (Hand/Arm)
Special Maneuvers
All maneuvers are organized according to the principal
method of fighting. Kicking covers actions involving kicks;
movement includes leaps, tumbles, dives, and acrobatics. In
addition, each maneuver is identified as being hard, soft, or
balanced. This corresponds to the general fighting style. A
soft fighting style mainly uses soft special maneuvers and a
hard style uses hard special maneuvers. This does not
prevent crossover between the two styles, it just indicates
the general type of maneuver each style uses.
Special maneuvers are not gained immediately upon
learning the martial arts style. They require extra training
and are learned gradually.
On every odd level, the mystic may select a martial arts
special maneuver that corresponds to his chosen style.
For every three maneuvers he has selected from his
style, he may take one maneuver outside his chosen style.
This may be done at any time and is not a required action.
For example, if a player wants a maneuver at level 11
that is not part of his style, he can look back at his previous
selections and say "Ok, I took five hard maneuvers so I can
take a soft or balanced maneuver if I want."
The number next to the maneuver indicates the level of
the maneuver. No maneuver may be learned until all of the
lower levels of the chosen style are learned.

Block
Basic Parry: The basic parry maneuver prevents melee
attacks from hitting the mystic. It does not work against
missile attacks. A character can perform the basic parry if he
has not used all his martial arts attacks for that round. Even
if his opponent has initiative, the mystic can announce that
he‟s using one of his attacks to parry. The mystic rolls an
attack against his opponent, taking into account all normal
adjustments to his opponent‟s AC. If the attack hits, the
mystic has parried the first blow struck at him this round by
his opponent. This maneuver may be used with any weapon.
Parry All: The parry all maneuver is a more advanced
form of the basic parry. It requires two of the character‟s
attacks for the round. With this expenditure, the mystic gets
to roll a block against every melee attack aimed at her this
round, so long as she is aware of the attacks. She makes a
separate attack roll against each oncoming blow. This
maneuver may be used with any weapon.
Grappling Block: With this advanced maneuver, the
mystic parries an incoming weapon attack and is able to
grab the weapon making it harder for the attacker to use it
against him. If the mystic is unarmed, the grappling block
requires both his hands to perform; if he is armed, it requires
his weapon hand.
The grappling block takes one of the mystic‟s attacks,
just like the basic parry. If it is successful, the mystic and
the attacker both have a grip on the weapon. The grip is
never a dangerous one for the mystic. For example, the
grappling block allows the unarmed mystic to clap the blade
of a sword-wielding opponent between his palms,
preventing it from striking.
In order to strike the mystic with the weapon, the
attacker must get it free. To do this, the attacker rolls ld20
and compares the number rolled to his Strength score. If the
attacker succeeds in his Strength check, he recovers his
weapon. If he loses his roll by 4 or more, he loses his
weapon (it is now in the mystic„s hand). Any other result
leaves the two combatants still grappling for the weapon.
The attacker may make as many Strength checks per round
as he has attacks available, and can release the weapon
voluntarily at any time.
The mystic can make further attacks on his opponent
with a +2 to his chance to hit, if the grappling block
maneuver has left his principal body part free to make the
attack. For example, if he used a chain to catch his
opponent„s attack, and his principal attack method is the
kick, he can attack with a leg. But if he used a two-handed
sword to catch his opponent„s attack and his principal attack
method is a fist strike, he has no hands free to attack.
Additionally, any other character making an attack against
either of the two combatants grappling for the weapon gets
+2 to hit.
If the attack roll fails, the mystic has managed to foul his
own weapon on that of his opponent. If his opponent can
then make a normal attack roll against him (requiring no
time and not costing him an attack), the opponent yanks his
weapon free, leaving the character disarmed. This maneuver
may be used with any weapon. Characters using chain or
rope weapons receive a +2 bonus to hit with the grappling
block maneuver.
Missile Deflection: With this maneuver, the mystic is
able to parry thrown and missile weapons. This maneuver
requires two attacks for the round and applies to all attacks
that the mystic is aware of. This maneuver may be used with
any weapon. Characters using shields receive a +2 bonus to
hit with the arrow parry maneuver.
Kick
Circle Kick: In this dramatic kick, the attacker builds up
power and momentum by spinning in a complete circle
before landing the kick (usually on the side of the head or
body). If successful (a normal to hit roll), the kick does
twice normal damage. If unsuccessful, the character loses
the next attack he is normally allowed as he tries to recover
his balance.
Flying Kick: This Spectacular kick requires at least five
feet of running space. The character leaps high into the air
and leads with a powerful kick to the head (or head height
for larger than man-sized creatures). If the kick connects,
the character does triple normal damage. If unsuccessful, the
character falls to the ground adjacent to the intended target
and must spend a round getting back to his feet (unless he
also has Prone Fighting or Instant Stand).
Backward Kick: This seemingly innocuous kick is
extremely difficult to master. The character attempts a
normal attack at any creature directly behind him, either
kicking his foot over and behind his own head or lashing out
straight backward. He does not have to turn around and face
his attacker. The kick does normal damage, but a failed
attempt has no ill effects.
Lock
Locking is the art of gripping an opponent in such a way
that prevents him from acting-twisting an arm so the joint is
locked, applying pressure lo choke off breathing and blood
flow, etc.
Choke Hold: This teaches the character the correct way
of applying pressure to render an opponent unconscious.
When using a choke hold, no attacks can be made in the
next round as the attacker is entirely occupied in gripping
and holding his opponent. If a successful to hit roll is made,
7 of 75

the choke has been applied. Once applied, the hold must be
maintained until the end of the next melee round (during
which the character can take no &her anion). The victim can
attempt to escape by making a successful to hit roll,
modified by a -2 on the die roll. The escape attempt can be
tried as many times as the victim has attacks. If the
character fails to escape, he falls unconscious at the end of
the round. He remains unconscious for 1-3 rounds.
Locking Block: This action can be attempted instead of
a normal attack. It can be used against other unarmed
fighters or melee weapon attacks. A normal to hit roll is
made. If successful, the character has trapped his opponent's
weapon, arm, or leg in a scissors arm-lock and it cannot be
used to make attacks. In addition, so long as the victim is so
trapped the character can make attacks (using the feet only)
with a + 4 on his chance to hit. The victim can break the
lock by expending an attack and making a normal to hit roll
for success. The locking block does not cause damage.
When used against an unarmed fighter, an unsuccessful
locking block causes no penalty other than the fact that the
attack has been lost and no damage is done. However, when
used against a weapon, an unsuccessful locking block
results in the character taking damage from the weapon. In
attempting to make the block, the character has only
managed to get him self hit by the weapon.
Incapacitator: By gripping the opponent and twisting
the joins, the character can render one finger, arm, or leg
useless for 24 hours and cause double normal damage.
A successful to hit roll must be made and the victim is
allowed a saving throw vs. paralyzation. If the saving throw
is failed, the appropriate limb is rendered useless. If the
saving throw is made, the attack fails. An unsuccessful
attack (either a failed to hit or a successful saving throw) has
no effect on the attacker other than the waste of an attack
and the lack of damage done. This maneuver is particularly
useful to prevent opponents from escaping or making
attacks.
Remember that the head is not considered a limb! If an
arm is withered, the character can still fight, though he
cannot use two-handed weapons. Spells can be Cast 75% of
the time. If a leg is withered, the character's movement rate
is reduced to ¼ it‟s normal. Armor Class decreases by 3 and
the character suffers a -4 on his chance to hit. A withered
limb can be restored by the use of heal, limited wish, and
wish spells.
Immobilizing: With one hand the character is able to
grip and hold an opponent in a way that keeps him from
taking any action. The character is still able to make attacks
(using either his feet or his other hand), even applying an
immobilizing lock on another victim. A successful to nit roll
must be made and the attack does no damage. Immobilized
characters can attempt to escape by spending am melee
attack to break the hold. However, the chance of success is
modified by -6 to the die roll. An unsuccessful immobilizing
lock results in a 4 modifier on the character‟s next attack.
Movement
This method relies on the training of the character in the
control and positioning of his own body-his posture, stance,
and reflexes. From it students learn the importance of speed,
sudden changes of direction, and footwork. It is seldom very
offensive, but when combined with other styles create a
dangerous and deadly fighter.
Feint: A feint is a trick where the character begins an
attack in one direction and at the last minute changes it to
another direction. When done successfully, the opponent is
out of position lo the new attack and cannot defend as
effectively against it. A feint requires one melee attack to
execute. A normal to hit roll is made and if successful the
character's next attack gains a + 2 on the chance to hit. The
feint itself does no damage.
If unsuccessful, the character suffers no penalty other
than the loss of the attack.
Prone Fighting: Prepared for any circumstance, the
Character is able to fight effectively even when lying on the
ground. This special maneuver is constant-it applies any
time the character is knocked from his feet. The only
limitation is that the character can perform no other special
maneuver (except Instant Stand) when prone.
Immovability: By carefully positioning his feet and
learning to tense and relax various muscles, the character
can avoid being knocked, lifted or thrown off his feet. Any
time these would occur. the character is automatically
allowed a saving throw vs. paralyzation. If the save is
successful, the character remains where he is.
Leap: The character is able to perform extraordinary
feats of springing and leaping by channeling his inner
power, mentally making himself as light as a feather. From
a Standing Start the character can spring four feet into the
air and three feet forward plus one foot for each level of the
character.
He can also flip in mid-air to automatically change his
facing. Such springs do not take an entire melee round,
costing instead only one attack allowed during the round.
Thus a character could flip over an opponent, land behind
him, and execute an attack from the rear with his next melee
attack. From a running start, the character can spring eight
feet upward and three feet forward plus one foot for each
level of the character. The character must have at least 10
feat of running space for springing. In both cases, the
character must make a normal to hit roil to see if he lands
safely. If the roll is made, the leap or spring is successful. If
the roll is failed, the character makes the leap but falls to the
ground upon landing.
Speed: The character has developed lightning-fast
reflexes and powerful muscles mainly by concentrating and
learning how his body controls its movements. The
character gains twice the normal amount of melee attacks he
is normally allowed (both with the martial arts and normal
combat) and moves at double the normal combat movement
rate (only). The increase in movement rate does not apply to
8 of 75

normal movement nor can the movement speed be
maintained for more than five rounds. This special
maneuver is difficult and tiring. It can only be done once per
day and can only be maintained for five rounds. At the end
of this time, the character must rest for 1-3 rounds.
Slow Resistance: Having developed his body and
disciplined his mind, the character is automatically immune
to slow effects.
Featherfoot: Mystics with this skill can make their
footsteps as light as a feather, moving silently and exerting
very little pressure on the surface they are moving over.
This skill is a function of the mystic's move silently
ability, which is a requirement for using this skill. A mystic
who makes a successful move silently roll can move a short
distance over a surface fairly quickly and without exerting
any appreciable weight on it. The mystic must stop and
make contact with a solid surface after moving this far.
Soft Surfaces: Mud, snow, sand, or other surfaces where
normal humans would leave clear tracks. The mystic may
move at full speed across this surface.
Very Soft Surfaces: Quicksand, fine dust, or other
surfaces where normal humans would sink slowly. The
mystic may move at ¾ speed across this surface.
Liquid Surfaces: Water or other surfaces where normal
humans would sink immediately. The mystic may move at
½ speed across this surface.
A mystic using the featherfoot maneuver moves in
complete silence and leaves no tracks on the ground. The
character's weight doe not press down upon the surface at
all. The character does not set off any alarm or trap
triggered by weight.
Push
Pushing is a soft form of combat, primarily protective in
nature. It relies on the character's understanding of the
forces of motion. The opponent's own force is turned against
him, deflecting his attack, throwing him off balance, or
knocking him backward with a single touch. Learning this
art takes great mental discipline but does not require great
strength.
Concentrated Push: The character focuses his inner
energy into his hands, giving him great results even from a
gentle push. On a successful to hit roll the opponent is
knocked back one foot per level of the character. If the
distance is greater than three feet, the victim must make a
successful saving throw vs. paralyzation to remain on his
feet. If the victim hits a solid object, he suffers damage as if
he had fallen the same distance. Note that those with
immovability can resist being knocked back. If the
Concentrated Push attack is unsuccessful, all attacks made
against the character for the remainder of the round have a +
2 on their chance to hit.
Sticking Touch: The character has so attuned his sense
of touch that even by lightly placing his hand on another he
can cause it to follow their every move. A normal to hit roll
must be made and the touch does no damage.
However, so long as the character remains in contact, he
gains + 2 on all subsequent to hit rolls and his armor class
improves by2. since he is able to feel the impending move
of his opponent before it happens. The touch can only be
broken by the opponent moving in a way or at a speed
beyond the abilities of the character. Thus, if the opponent
had the Leap maneuver he could use this to break contact.
However, if both knew this maneuver, the character could
automatically choose to leap at the same time as his
opponent, keeping his contact unbroken.
One Finger: This skill requires long and difficult
practice. It is said that the student first learns to push a
heavy bell with the touch of a single finger. He concentrates
then on touching e lighter and lighter while making the bell
swing even more. Finally, he reaches the point where he can
make the bell move without actually touching it. His inner
power extends from his finger and pushes the bell. At this
point he has mastered One Finger.
One Finger gives the character the power of
Concentrated Push without having to touch the target. The
character simply concentrates and points his finger at the
victim. The range is equal to one foot per character level.
One Finger requires great concentration and is the only
action that can be taken in the melee round regardless of the
number of attacks the character has. A normal to hit roll
must be made. If successful, the victim is affected as if hit
by a Concentrated Push. If unsuccessful, the attack misses
and has no effect.
Strike
Iron Fist: Through various toughening exercises, the
character has hardened his hands so much so that they feel
like steal. The character does one extra die of damage on
each attack, if his principal body part used is the hands. If
the principal body part is not the hands, the character does
one extra die of damage on one attack per melee round.
Crushing Blow: The character is able to shatter or break
hard objects with a blow of his hand. This includes wood,
ceramics and masonry but not metal. The character can
break 1/2" of wood or 1/4" of brittle stone per level. The
DM can modify this based on the shape, hardness, and age
of the object. If used against a living target, the character
causes normal damage plus points equal to his level. The
Crushing Blow requires great concentration and is the only
action the character can do in a round regardless of the
number of attacks normally allowed. In all cases a normal to
hit roll must be made. The DM must determine the number
needed to hit a stationary object (based on its hardness). Lf
the die roll is failed and the character is striking a hard
object (such as a stone), he has seriously hurt his hand. He
suffers damage equal to what he would do on a normal
attack and the hand is unusable for 24 hours.
9 of 75

Eagle Claw: Through physical exercise and
concentration, the character can summon immense crushing
strength into his hand. On a successful to hit roll he can
shatter objects (snap spear shafts. crush stones. etc.), crush
metal items, and cause 3d10 points of damage on an attack.
This requires great concentration and is the only action the
character can take during the round.
All-around Attack: A mystic with this maneuver is
capable of launching a massive blow that can be extended
into a whirlwind physical attack that damages every enemy
within reach.
The mystic makes a single attack roll against any
adjacent opponent. If the attack hits, the opponent suffers
normal damage from the blow. If the damage is sufficient to
kill the opponent the hail of blows from the mystic
automatically inflicts damage on every enemy within a 5-
foot radius, as decided by the character. Enemies who are
larger than the original target, or whose Armor Classes are
better than the original target's, are not harmed. Invisible
opponents within the radius can be harmed if their effective
Armor Classes (after the -4 bonus for invisibility) is not
better than the original target's.
An all-around attack is a measure of a mystic's skill and
can be made with any type of melee weapon that the mystic
is proficient with or with unarmed attacks. However,
opponents that would normally be immune to the weapon
used cannot be harmed in an all-around attack. If the initial
attack misses, the all-around attack fails. If the initial attack
hits, the target suffers normal from the attack. If the damage
inflicted fails to kill the original target, there is no radius
effect.
Death Blow: This skill allows warriors to strike deadly
blows that can fell an opponent in a single stroke.
The mystic makes a single attack roll against any
adjacent opponent. If the attack hits, the opponent suffers
normal damage from the blow and must save vs. death ray
or be slain immediately. The opponent's armor class
bonuses from protective devices (such as magical armor and
rings of protection) always apply to the saving throw.
Opponents with more Hit Dice/levels than the warrior
are immune to the effect. Creatures that would not normally
be vulnerable to damage from the weapon the warrior is
using in the attack also are immune. When a warrior
attempts a death blow, it is the only attack a warrior can
make during the round. A mystic can combine a death blow
with an all-around attack Only the initial target of the allaround
attack is subject to the instant death effect, but this
might allow the all-around attack to succeed when it
otherwise might not.
Throw
Fall: The first maneuver any student of this style learns
is how to fall correctly. He learns to fall and roll, taking the
impact of the fall on the safest areas of his body. Once
learned this maneuver is constantly in effect. Thereafter he
suffers only ½ the normal amount of damage from any fail.
Instant Stand: After learning to fall, the student learns
how to gain his feet quickly either by rolling up to a
standing position or using an acrobatic jump. Normally on a
round is required for a character to gain his feet, but a
character knowing this maneuver can regain his feet
automatically instead of making an attack. He may do other
actions in the round if he has attacks available.
Hurl: This type of throw relies a great deal on strength
and less on leverage. The character can attempt to pick up
an opponent and throw him to the ground ld4 feet away. The
victim suffers double damage from the throw. Characters
with immovability can resist this maneuver. A successful to
hit roll must be made for the Hurl to work. If the roll is
failed, the character loses all remaining attacks for the round
and automatically loses initiative for the next round.
Great Throw: Using leverage and his opponent's
momentum, the character is able to throw his enemy a great
distance. A normal to hit roll must be made. If the victim is
stationary, the character can throw him one foot per level. If
the victim is charging the character, the distance thrown is
six feet plus one foot per level. The victim suffers triple
normal damage from the throw. If the to hit roll is
unsuccessful, the opponent has countered the move and the
character has been mocked on h s feet, automatically losing
initiative the next round.
Featherfall: Due to intense training, the character need
not fear falling from great heights. By bounding from one
surface to another, the character may negate any damage
suffered from falling.
Vital Area
This method is much like strike or kick in that it relies
on the blow for effect. However, the strength of the blow is
not nearly as important as where it is delivered. The vital
area method teaches the character where and how to strike
at the weak spot on his opponent's body – the throat, the
ears, the foot, nerve points, and other places. Because the
training requires knowledge of anatomy, the special
maneuvers listed can only be used against human and
humanoid opponents.
Pain Touch: Simply by pressing his finger against
specific points of the body, the character can cause great
pain in his victim. This can be done in place of a normal
attack. It causes no damage, but it the hit roll is successful,
the victim feels as if he is on fire. Thereafter, he will be -2
on his chance to hit and - 2 on chance of being hit. The
effect lasts for 1 3 rounds. There is no adverse effect on the
victim if the to hit roll is failed.
Stunning Touch: With a light slap on his fingers in the
correct place. The character can stun and daze his opponent.
This can be a one in place of a normal attack and causes no
damage A normal to hit roll must be made. If successful, the
victim is allowed a saving throw vs. paralyzation. It this is
10 of 75

failed, the victim is stunned for 1d4 rounds, unable to take
any action. However, should the hit roll fail or the saving
throw be passed, the attack has no effect.
Paralyzing Touch: By placing pressure on specific
nerve junctions. The character can paralyze his victim,
leaving him unable to move for 1d6 turns. A normal to hit
roll must be made and the victim is allowed a saving throw
vs. paralyzation. If the attack fails or the saving throw is
made, no damage is done.
Distance Death: This is the ultimate skill of this method
and requires great practice and concentration. To learn it,
the character must practice at a pool of water, driving his
finger at it without touching it. As he does so, he
concentrates on his own power, trying to extend it from his
finger. When he can hear the echo of his thrust rebound
from the water, he has mastered the maneuver.
Distance Death requires great concentration and 1s the
only action the character can take during the melee round. It
has a range of one foot per level of the character. With it the
character can choose to apply the effects of Pain, Stunning,
or Paralyzing Touch or he can choose to do three times his
normal damage on the attack. It Pain is chosen, the victim is
not allowed a saving throw; for Stunning the saving throw is
-2 on the die roll. In all cases a normal to hit roll must be
made.
Weapon
The martial arts often include training in a number of
standard and unusua1 weapons. The training with standard
weapons is very much like that which other warriors receive
and is covered elsewhere in these rules. However, there are
several weapons unique to the martial arts – weapons that
cannot be used effectively without training in the moves and
positions associated with the martial arts. The maneuvers
given below can only be applied when using those weapons
that are noted as being exclusive to practitioners of the
martial arts.
Weapon Catch: All weapons are routinely used to block
and parry an opponent. The Weapon Catch maneuver
teaches the character how to use the Special martial ads
weapons to catch and lock his opponent's weapon in place.
Here weapon includes not just melee weapons but also the
arms and legs of an unarmed opponent. A Weapon Catch is
made in place of a normal attack and a hit roll must be
made. If successful, the character has caught the opponent's
attack with his weapon and has locked it in place. The
opponent cannot use that weapon to fight with. Furthermore,
the character can make further snacks on the opponent with
a + 2 on his chance to hit. if he has the correct principal
body part free to make the attack. The opponent can break
the catch by either dropping his weapon or spending a melee
attack to attempt to break free. If he attempts the latter, he
must make a normal to hit roll to succeed.
If the Weapon Catch attempt fails, the character has
managed to foul his own weapon on that of the opponent's.
With a quick twist the opponent pulls the character's
weapon from his grasp, leaving the character disarmed.
Weapon Breaker: Just as martial arts weapons are
designed M catch weapons, they are also capable of
breaking them. Indeed, Students are often taught this art as
it gives them an advantage in combat. The breaking action is
a swift blow or twist with the weapon. It can only be used
against melee weapons, not unarmed fighters. The character
can also use this maneuver when fighting with the staff
against a sword. A normal to hit roll must be made. If
successful, the opponent's weapon must save vs. crushing
blow or be broken. If the to hit roll fails or the save is made,
the maneuver fails. This maneuver does no damage.
Steel Cloth: With this maneuver, the character need
never be without a weapon. Taking a 6 to 10 foot piece of
cloth, the character whirls and snaps it tight, keeping it in
constant motion and giving it the rigidity of a spear. The
cloth is treated as a spear, except that it cannot be thrown.
This maneuver is automatic; no die roll is made for success.
Mental Training
These maneuvers are gained by the character in the
course of training and reflect his superb control over mind
and body. They do not belong to the categories of principal
methods as they can be learned by practitioners of any style.
Meditation: Meditation is a state of deep concentration.
By meditating, the mystic focuses and regains his energies.
One hour of uninterrupted mediation is as restful as two
hours of sleep. While meditating, the mystic is oblivious to
hunger, thirst, heat, and cold. He is still conscious and aware
of his surroundings, however, so he does not suffer any
penalties on surprise or initiative dice rolls
All-around Sight: The character's training makes him
more attuned to his immediate surroundings. He is sable to
detect opponents on all sides of him, provided they are not
invisible. The character can never be struck from behind or
suffer a penalty from a back attack. This maneuver is
constantly in effect.
Mental Resistance: The mental exercises and ordeals of
the character's training have toughened and strengthened his
will. He receives a +2 on ail saving throws against mental
attacks including charm, illusion. And hold spells. This
maneuver is constantly in effect.
Blind Fighting: Under his master's guidance, the
character has trained for long periods while wearing a
blindfold or in darkened moms. This has given the character
the ability to detect his foes with his other senses. The
character suffers only a -1 penalty when fighting in
darkness, when blinded, or when faced by Invisible
opponents. This maneuver is constantly in effect.
Levitation: This is perhaps the rarest of all the martial
arts maneuvers, since it requires the utmost of concentration
and mental discipline. Daily the character practices at
making his body feel lighter, using his mental power to
negate his own weight. Finally, the character succeeds in
11 of 75

overcoming all his weight. At this point he can levitate. This
maneuver requires one turn of concentration before it can be
done. Thereafter the character can move up, down or
sideways at five feet per round. He can take no actions
while levitating and if his concentration is broken, he falls to
the ground. Upon completion of the Levitation, the
character must rest for one round before doing any other
action.
Physical Training
Ironskin: Rigorous physical training has toughened the
character's muscles to the point where he can harden them
like iron. The natural Armor Value of the character is
improved by 2. This ability does not stack with armor but it
does stack with the balanced style ability.
Way of the Monkey: Through agility and fluid motions,
you enhance all of your soft maneuvers by +2. This bonus
applies to all mechanical aspects of the maneuvers: to hit,
damage, duration, mystic‟s saving throws, penalties to a
victim‟s saving throws, etc. It does not modify the number
of times a maneuver can be used. An acrobatic mystic is
considered to be two levels higher for the purposes of
calculating his chance of success.
Way of the Snake: Through fluid motions and sudden
movements, the character can enhance the effectiveness of
his balanced maneuvers by +2. This bonus applies to all
mechanical aspects of the maneuvers: to hit, damage,
duration, mystic‟s saving throws, penalties to a victim‟s
saving throws, etc. It does not modify the number of times a
maneuver can be used. A snake practitioner
adds an additional die of damage every time
he scores a critical hit. This damage is applied
before multiplication.
Way of the Tiger: Through the focus of
strength and leverage, all of the character‟s
hard maneuvers are enhanced by +2. This
bonus applies to all mechanical aspects of
the maneuvers: to hit, damage, duration,
mystic‟s saving throws, penalties to a
victim‟s saving throws, etc. It does not
modify the number of times a maneuver
can be used. A tiger mystic reduces the
effectiveness of armor value by half
(rounding down).
Chi Powers
Chi Focus: Through the mastery of
chi, the character can manifest his energy
as a visible glow (yellow for lawful, blue for
neutral and red for chaotic characters). The
glow lasts for 1d6+1 rounds and increases his
physical ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, and
Constitution) by your Mystic level (see the Ability Score
Adjustments table on page 52 of the Wrath of the Immortals
Codex of the Immortals rulebook for scores above 18). This
ability may be used a number of times per day equal to your
Constitution adjustment +1.
Chi Strike: By focusing your Chi energy into your
primary limb(s), you may inflict astounding damage with
your strikes for one round. The bonus damage dealt is equal
to your willpower score (Intelligence + Wisdom scores).
This ability cannot be combined with the smash fighter
combat option. This ability may be used a number of times
per day equal to your Constitution adjustment +1.
Chi Blast: The character has learned to project his chi
energy to inflict damage. In place of your attacks for the
round you may perform a chi strike at a range of
10‟/20‟/30‟. This ability may be used a number of times per
day equal to the number of mystic attacks available
multiplied by 1 + your constitution adjustment.
Psion
D&D 3.0: Psionics Handbook
Prime Requisite: Intelligence and Wisdom.
Experience Bonus: 5% for Intelligence of 13-15, +10%
for Intelligence of 16-18.
Hit Dice: 1d6 per level up to 12th level.
Maximum Level: 36.
Armor: None.
Weapons: Dagger, whip, short sword, and staff.
Special Abilities: Psionic Powers.
The striking fist or flashing sword pales before a psion‟s
focused stare. Psionic powers arise from a
regimen of strict mental discipline
developed over months and years of selfscrutiny
and mind-actualization. Those
who overcome personal demons,
neuroses, and other pitfalls if intense selfreflection
learn to call upon an internal
reservoir of power.
Psions depend on a continual study of
their own minds to discover an evenwider
range of mental powers. They
meditate on memories and the nature
of memory itself, debate with their
own fragment personalities, and
delve into the dark recesses of
their minds‟ convoluted
corridors. “Know thyself” is
not just a saying for a psion, but
the road to power.

Psions use the Psion experience table for advancement,
and the Magic-User Saving Throws table (See page 19 of
the D&D Rules Cyclopedia).
The “Powers/Level” entries indicate the number of
psionic power slots they have, as well as the number of
psionic powers they have access to.
Those destined to be psions show signs of mental
powers from the time they are just a few years old, but
manifestations become especially noticeable at puberty.
Unexplained noises and lights, crockery flying through the
air of its own accord, and the appearance of small items out
of thin air are common. Most who have the gift grow out of
it, turning away from their potential. However, a few
embrace their differences. From that point on, the budding
psion can begin practicing and improving his or her powers.
Like spell-wielding magic-users, psions are often on their
own, misunderstood and feared by friends and family.
Sometimes, psions find others of similar abilities and form
informal networks, small societies, or even tiny communes
populated with individuals possessing some psionic ability.

Sexcraft: A Tantrist gains the use of the Sexcraft
general skill for free. This skill is used to gather the energy
needed to use her special abilities.
The sexcraft skill allows a Tantrist to collect and store
sexual energy. This energy is generated when her sex
partner has an orgasm. A Tantrist may store a maximum
number of orgasms equal to her constitution score. This
energy may be spent in a variety of ways:
1. She may spend energy to recover spells each day.
The amount spent is equal to her highest castable
spell level (1-8).
2. Spending 1 point will increase a spell‟s range by
10‟. She may spend no more points than her
Constitution adjustment in this manner.
3. Spending 1 point will increase a spell‟s damage by
+1 per die. She may spend no more points than her
Constitution adjustment in this manner.
4. Spending 2 points will increase her caster level by
one for 1d6 rounds. She may spend no more points
than her Constitution adjustment in this manner.
5. Spending 2 points will heal 1d6+1 points of
damage. She may spend no more points than her
Constitution adjustment in this manner.
6. Spending 3 points will purge her body of any
poisons or diseases. She may spend no more points
than her Constitution adjustment in this manner.
Spells: A Tantrist now learns to use her sexual energy to
power spells. The Tantrist gains spell slots like a magic-user
of half her level (round down). They can cast spells from the
magical spells list on page 34 of the Rules Cyclopedia.
Seduction: The Tantrist has learned how seduce
individuals. The percentage chance of seducing is as
follows:
14 of 75

(Tantrist‟s Level + Charisma adj. + modifiers) /
(Target‟s level + Wisdom adj.) x 100
Modifiers:
Heavily Clothed -1
Scantly / Provocatively Clad +1
Naked +2
Higher social class
+1 per level
Lower social class
-1 per level
A seduced target will act as if under the effects of a
Charm Person spell with the additional effect of desiring
intimate relations with the seducer. This effects lasts for the
duration listed under the Charm Person spell (see page 145
of the Rules Cyclopedia). At the end of the duration, the
target must make a saving throw vs. spells to realize that he
has been seduced.
Pheromones: The natural pheromones of the Tantrist
become enhanced by her reserves of sexual energy. She
receives a +1 bonus to all charisma-based skills and special
abilities for every 7 levels in this class.
Parry: The Tantrist gains access to the Parry fighter
combat option.
Disrobe: This ability is similar to the disarm fighter
combat option except that it only works on cloth, laces,
straps, buttons, belts, and other such items. It can also be
used to cut clothing without damaging the wearer. It does
not work on armor, weapons, or shields.
This maneuver can only be used when the Tantrist gets
his normal Strength and magic adjustments to his attack roll.
If he hits, he inflicts no damage. Instead, the victim rolls
1d20 with a penalty to the roll equal to the attacker‟s
Dexterity adjustment. If the final roll is greater than the
victim‟s dexterity score, the targeted article of clothing is
removed.
Aid Spellcaster: The Tantrist may now augment other
casters spells in the same manner that he augments his own
spells. In order to use this ability, she must be in physical
contact with the Spellcaster that she is aiding.
If the Tantrist channels more points than the caster‟s
Constitution adjustment, then the caster will need to make a
saving throw vs. death ray with a penalty equal to the
amount of points that went beyond the caster‟s Constitution
adjustment. If he fails, he will be stunned for 1d6 rounds
after the spell is cast due to being overloaded.
Energy Blast: The Tantrist has mastered the art of
projecting her stored sexual energy as a coherent cone of
scintillating energy 120‟ long and 60‟ wide at the end. The
beam inflicts 1d6 points of lethal or non-lethal damage
(player‟s choice) per point invested in it. If the Tantrist
chooses to deal non-lethal damage, anyone caught in the
cone must make a successful saving throw vs. wands or
become stunned for 1d6 rounds due to the intense physical
pleasure being experienced.
New Trick: In addition to the number of sex tricks a
Tantrist learns with sexcraft, she also gains a bonus trick at
levels 9, 18, 27, and 36.

Human Sub-Classes
The concept of the Sub-Class was introduced in the rules
cyclopedia with the Avenger, Druid, Knight and Paladin
classes. Several sub-classes are added here to add flexibility
to the level advancement system.
Sub-classes can be categorized into two groups:
conceptually-based and mechanically-based.
Conceptually-based sub-classes are those which are
created to describe a group or organization with a distinct
flair.
Mechanically-based sub-classes are those which are
designed to grey the lines between the classes by adding the
capabilities of a second class at one-third its normal power.

Druidic Knight (Fighter Class)
Dragon Magazine #177
Only neutral traveling fighters may become druidic
knights. They must have adopted the philosophy of the
druids prior to reaching knighthood and must swear fealty to
a prince, king, or emperor faithful to the ways of the druids.
A druidic knight may not wield metallic weapons nor wear
metallic armor and shields. The knight must use wooden
armor and weapons magically shaped and hardened by the
druids. These items are usually lacquered or varnished, and
include curvilinear decorations, delicate leaf carvings,. and
fine scrollwork tooled into the wood. The knight must repay
the druids for these precious items, usually in terms of
several years of routine service when not called upon by a
liege.
In addition to all obligations and advantages common to
knights; a druidic knight also has the following abilities:
A knight can detect danger (as per the druidic spell)
once per hour, simply by concentrating (range of 5' per
spell-casting level). The knight cannot use that ability and
attack on the same round.
If the knight's Wisdom score is 13 or more, the character
can cast spells (from the druidic spell list only) as if he were
a druid of one-third his actual experience level (rounded
down). If a fighter becomes a druidic knight right at~9th
level, he'll immediately gain the druidic spells of a 3 rd level
18 of 75

druid. With a lesser Wisdom score, the fighter can still be a
druidic knight but will have no spell-casting ability.
The druidic knight learns how to meditate and cast spells
as druids would. He can do so at someone's behest, but at a
price-set at the DM's discretion-that must involve a service
to nature or to woodland beings.
Druidic knights cannot turn undead. Druidic hirelings
may include demi-humans (especially halflings or elves)
and woodland beings. A druidic knight cannot have more
Hit-Dice worth of hirelings than his druidic spell-casting
level. In other words, if a druidic knight can cast spells as a
3rd-level druid, he may not have more than 3 HD worth of
hirelings accompany him.
The druidic knight must assist any woodland being
asking for help with two exceptions: He does not have to
help creatures opposed to the druidic philosophy and goals;
and if the knight is on a mission for a higher authority (such
as on a quest, serving a duke, etc.), he may offer only a
small amount of help. Assistance never involves the
donation of money or items, only the offering of personal
services for a short time.
A druid of the Ninth Circle or higher may summon a
knight to escort him to gatherings at the Hallowed Forest of
Carnuilh. The knight must remain with the druid until the
end of the celebration. This call supersedes that of a liege.
Justicar of Tarastia (Cleric Class)
Anthony K. Harvey
A cleric of Tarastia of ninth level or greater may request
initiation into the order of the Justicar. Their sole purpose is
to wander the world bringing justice to the people of
wherever they travel.
A Justicar‟s authority is normally accepted in any
country where Tarastia is worshiped. In lands where
Tarastia is unknown, the order must establish a relationship
with the local rulers or act as bounty hunters. In lands where
the worship of Tarastia is outlawed, a Justicar is most likely
operating in opposition to the local rulership. This happens
most commonly in countries with tyrannical rulers in place.
In addition to all obligations and advantages common to
knights; a Justicar also has the following abilities in
addition:
1. For the purposes of the knight abilities, a liege is
defined as the highest ranking ruler of the land that
he is within (unless the worship of Tarastia is
outlawed in that land) and/or the highest ranking
cleric of Tarastia (including himself).
2. When wielding an axe, the Justicar may choose to
inflict non-lethal damage without suffering the
traditional -3 penalty to hit.
3. At 9 th level, a Justicar gains access to the Fighter
Combat Options as detailed on page 104 of the
D&D Rules Cyclopedia.
4. At levels 19, 27, and 33 a Justicar gains an
additional weapon mastery choice in addition to his
normal allotment.
Monk (Cleric Class)
Anthony K. Harvey
Monks take their spiritual strength and apply it to their
physical nature. They do not rely on weapons or armor.
In order to become a Monk, a Cleric must have a
minimum wisdom and dexterity of 13. Monks retain their
clerical abilities and also gain all the abilities of a Mystic of
one-third their level (truncate decimals) except for
acrobatics.
Monks may not use armor, shields or protective magical
devices (such as rings, cloaks, etc).

Shield-Maiden (Fighter Class)
Anthony K. Harvey
A good-intentioned Lawful or Neutral female traveling
fighter of ninth level or greater may request initiation into
the Sisterhood of the Shield. Upon meeting the minimum
requirements for the class and completion of a test (selected
19 of 75

specifically for the aspirant by the King, Queen or Shield
mistress), she is inducted into the ranks of the sisterhood.
The requirements for initiation are as follows: A
candidate must be female and have at minimum ability
scores of 12 strength, 9 intelligence, and a 13 charisma. A
candidate must already have or vow to acquire the Detect
Deception general skill as soon as she possibly can.
A Shield-Maiden is a member of an elite female military
company separate from the normal military and knightly
ranks. The Sisterhood's purpose is to protect the royal
family and the kingdom of Darkonnia. This demands total
loyalty to the King and Queen (with the Shield Mistress
trailing behind a close second). A Shield-Maiden has
several rules she must follow:
1. If summoned by her superior or liege she must
report to him/her as quickly as possible, and
must serve as the superior orders (unless
countermanded by a superior of higher rank).
2. If she ever refuses to obey her liege, or ever
swears fealty to another liege, the Shield-
Maiden loses three levels of experience, and
loses shield-Maiden status.(The DM may
increase the penalty if the offense warrants it.)
The previous liege may even order the
offender slain for her treachery. In addition,
rumors and tales of the "traitorous ex-Shield-
Maiden" may haunt the character forever after;
the character may find it difficult to find help
in places where her reputation is known. This
can be far-reaching considering Darkonnia‟s
trade activity. A Shield-Maiden may petition
the liege for a peaceful end to her oath. The
Shield-Maiden would be banished, and could
be stripped of all possessions as well. She
will also lose her Shield-Maiden status. Also,
a Shield-Maiden may ask to retire. At this
point she will keep her status, but cannot
adventure for two years. If she adventures
before then, she must make a saving throw vs.
death ray each day or lose her status
permanently!
3. The Shield-Maiden must uphold the three
Darkonnian virtues: Honor, Valor and
Courage. This is subject to each Shield -
Maiden's views. A Shield-Maiden must also
fight for justice and defend the helpless.
4. A Shield-Maiden does not need to answer a
call to arms unless it is issued by the king
and/or queen.
A Shield-Maiden is able to use Fighter Combat Options
as a normal fighter would. She may also cast magic-user
spells as if she were a magic-user of one-third her level
(round any fraction down). Shield-Maidens regain spells
identically to magic-users.
She may also cast the Know Alignment spell by
concentrating on the effect three times per day at a range of
10'.
A Shield Maiden may also Detect Lies three times per
day by concentration alone.

Spell Singer (Bard Class)
Anthony K. Harvey
The Spell Singer has mastered the power of her voice so
well, that she can weave her songs into a magical tapestry,
causing magical effects.
20 of 75

In order to become a Spell Singer, a Bard must be at
least ninth level, have a minimum intelligence of 13, and
have the Singing or Music general skills.
Spell Singers can cast magical spells as a Magic-User of
one third their level (dropping decimal points). The spell
book of a Spell Singer is written in a special magical
variation of musical notation. In order for anyone other than
the writer to read this notation, Read magic must be cast on
the book. Even then the script will be unintelligible to
anyone without the ability to cast magical spells and who
does not have either the music or singing general skills.

Break Enchantment: Upon reaching 21 st level, the
Spell Singer gains the Break Enchantment ability. Three
times per day, the Spell Singer may use her song
to disrupt any mind-affecting spell. This ability
automatically breaks enchantments cast by a
spell-user or monster of equal or lower level.
If the caster is of higher level than the Spell
Singer, then this ability has a chance of
failure equal to 5% per level of difference
between them.
Counter-Song: At level 27, the Spell
Singer learns to use the Counter-song
ability. In order to use this ability she must
declare that she intends to use Counter-song.
Until her next round, she may choose to
disrupt the casting one opponent‟s spell by
singing its inverse harmonic counterpart,
essentially creating white noise against
that specific spell. The Spell Singer
must expend the same spell slot that
the opposing caster used to cast the
spell.
For example, an opposing magic-user casts fireball (a
third level spell) during the round that Alex the Spell Singer
used Counter-song. By expending a third level spell slot,
Alex successfully negates the casting of the fireball spell.
The magic-user however, still uses up his third level spell
slot.
Harmonic Spell: Once the Spell Singer attains 33 rd
level, she gains the use of the Harmonic Spell ability once
per day. The use of this ability takes a number of rounds
equal to the spell‟s level. Upon completion of the Harmonic
Spell, its range, area of effect, duration and damage are all
doubled.

ghoul paralysis; magic spells.
The winged elves, or Avariel, are a race of elves created
by the immortal Arla. The Avariel reside in her home plane
where they are nurtured, much like the original elves were
created by Oridana. They appear even more delicate than
their land-bound brethren. Their most
stunning characteristic is their
beautiful, soft wings. Although their
wings are generally white, Avariel
have been seen with wings whose
colors range to black. The wings are
their pride and joy, and an Avariel who
has lost his wings is intensely pitied by the
others. Since elves do not generally accept the
pity of others, a wingless Avariel often leaves
the community to find a life elsewhere.
Avariel eyes tend to be a little larger than most
elves‟, although they are the same colors that most
elves possess. Their hair is often white, black, red,
orange, silver, or golden, but there have been numerous
exceptions (including colors such as blue and green). Often
these colors are fairly intense. The Avariel have a tendency
to adopt a far-off look in their eyes when their immediate
attention is not required. They are very much at home in the
21 of 75

outdoors, and they appear out of place indoors or
underground.
Avariel clothing is most reminiscent of togas, for other
types of clothing often snag on their wings. Togas and their
like wrap easily around the Avariel‟s body and wings. Due
to the age of the race and their protected environment, they
have not really seen the need for clothing, and usually go
without any.
To those not bred to aerial combat, the Avariel are a
confusing opponent. While most humanoids tend to think
two-dimensionally in combat, the Avariel think in a third
dimension, which they utilize to a devastating effect.
They have incredible eyesight. Not only do they have
the standard elven infravision, when flying or outdoors they
can focus their vision to notice details at over a mile away
or those obscured by underlying forest. They use this
perception to maximum advantage and are thus excellent
scouts.
From a distance, Avariel in flight appear as large birds.
Thus, while opponents may notice their silhouettes, they
usually disregard them.
In combat, Avariel prefer to use light weapons, for
heavier ones inhibit their flight. The lasso, bola, and sword
are their weapons of choice. Note that momentum from any
sword longer than a normal sword interferes with flying. For
this reason, they use bastard swords and two-handed swords
only in foot combat. Avariel, unlike other elves, have a
difficult time using ordinary bows. Their wings interfere
with the smooth movements required to fire a bow.
Their wings allow them to fly at a speed of 180‟ (60‟)
and to jump to a height of 10 (+ STR Adjustment) feet.
Their wings are susceptible to fire, and burn quickly
once set ablaze. Only several weeks of recuperation will
restore fire-damaged wings to flying condition. If their
wings are set ablaze while they are flying, they will
immediately start to plummet.
Avariel can carry a limited amount of weight in addition
to their body mass.

Aranea
Dragon Magazine #183
Prime Requisite: Dexterity and Intelligence.
Experience Bonus: 5% for Dexterity of 13 or better and
Intelligence 13-15, 10% for Dexterity of 13 or better and
Intelligence of 16-18.
Hit Dice: 1d8 per level up to 9th level. Starting with 10th
level, +1 hit points per level, and constitution adjustments
no longer apply.
Maximum Level: 36.
Armor: None
Weapons: Dagger, staff, blowgun, flaming oil, holy
water, net, thrown rock, sling, whip and all magical items
permitted to magic-Users.
Special Abilities: Magical spells, Shape Change, Web
Casting, Paralytic Venom, Control Normal Spiders,
Summon Normal Spiders, Lethal Venom, and
Summon/Control Non-Magical Spiders.
Aranea must be neutral or chaotic, use skill slots to
acquire the ability to speak to normal and giant spiders (one
skill slot covers both), and reach a score of 18 in acting as
soon as possible. The acting skill is based upon aranea's
natural charisma score.
Aranea gain a +2 to Dexterity and Intelligence (up to
18), but suffer a -2 penalty to strength and Constitution.
These game statistics apply to both alter-egos. Roll up the
aranea's natural charisma as usual. The Charisma of the
humanoid alter-ego is initially equal to 8 (use the aranea's
natural charisma if 7 or less). Each time the Aranea gains a
new level of experience, it may make an acting skill check.
If successful, the Aranea permanently increases its
humanoid alter ego's Charisma. In their natural form,
Aranea have a Charisma of 3 to outsiders.
I - Shape Change
Aranea can shape change at will between their two alter
egos. The change requires a full game turn. Aranea have
multiple sets of eyes that provide infravision, secret-door
detection, and wide angle vision (Aranea can be surprised
only on a roll of 1 on 1d10). They can climb walls without
the help of tools like thieves of the same relative level, and
can cling to ceilings with a -40% penalty to the climbing
roll.

II - Web Casting
An Aranea can build a sticky web (or a cocoon) or
secrete a silk strand. It does so at a rate of one square foot
per round for the web, or 20' per round for the single strand.
The Aranea can hang at one end of the strand and descend
as it secretes the strand. The strand is as strong as a normal
rope, with half the encumbrance. The Aranea can climb up
its strand at its normal web movement rate (120' (40')).
The web functions like a web spell for creatures running
or falling into it. The web must be large enough to cover
the entire creature, or else it rips apart. Without constant
care, an Aranea web will last a week, after which it dries up
and falls apart. Aranea can move at their web movement
rate on any giant arachnid web. They can toss a small sticky
web (no more than 3'x3'); treat as a basic skill with nets
(Rules Cyclopedia, page 79).
III - Paralytic Venom
Aranean venom becomes potent enough to affect
creatures of 1/2 HD or more. The venom causes paralysis
(saving throw vs. poison to negate) that lasts one game turn
per level of the Aranea.

IV - Control Normal Spiders
Aranea can freely sense the presence of and control
normal spiders (up to 4 HD worth). This is done at will, as
long as normal spiders exist within 30' of the Aranea (no
save). This does not include giant types or other monstrous
arachnids.
V - Summon Normal Spiders
Once a day, Aranea can summon normal spiders
regardless of the situation. They arrive magically within
1d4 rounds as a single, crawling mass. Treat as an Insect
Swarm for game purposes (Rules Cyclopedia, page 187).
VI - Lethal Venom
The aranea's poison becomes lethal. If the victim fails
to save against paralysis, the victim must then roll a second
saving throw vs. poison. If the second saving throw fails,
the victim dies within 1d4 turns. The lethal effects of the
poison affect only creatures with the same number or fewer
hit dice as the Aranea.
VII - Summon / Control Giant Spiders
The summoning and controlling of spiders also applies
to non-magical giant spiders. The Aranea magically attracts
a number of hit dice of Giant Spiders equal to or less than
one third of its experience level, once per day.

Phanaton
Dragon Magazine #188
Prime Requisite: Dexterity. Shaman must have a 12 or
better in both Wisdom and Charisma.
Experience Bonus: 5% for Dexterity of 13-15, 10% for
Dexterity of 16-18.
Hit Dice: 1d8 per level up to 9th level. Starting with 10th
level, +2 hit points per level and constitution adjustments no
longer apply.
Maximum Level: 36.
Armor: All armor and shields (negates Dexterity bonus to
AC).
Weapons: Spears, Short Bows, and Blowguns.
Special Abilities: Gliding, Flying, Pass Plant.
As an option, phanatons could be run as player
characters (or NPCs with levels). Here is a way they could
be added to your game. It is suggested that PCs' game
statistics be rolled with the standard 3d6 dice method.
Phanatons are poor swimmers, preferring their arboreal
habitat. Phanatons do not have infravision. The more
common, primitive (Int 3-8) breeds of phanaton are
normally clumsy with their hands. When fighting, they are
likely to drop objects (coconuts, branches) on their
attackers, or bite them (1d6 points of damage), or use simple
weapons (branches, stone maces, or other blunt objects).
Phanatons of Jibaru have learned to use all spears, short
bows, and blowguns with needles dipped in a paralyzing
poison (save vs. poison or remain paralyzed for 1d6 turns).
Shields and armor are rarely used since they negate the
phanaton's ability to glide. All phanatons are naturally agile
(PC phanatons must have a dexterity or 16 to qualify).
Their natural AC is 9, with a +2 bonus to their AC and to all
saving throws due to their small size and agility.
Gliding
Phanatons can glide, usually from branch to branch,
due to loose skin between its limbs. The distance a
phanaton can glide is equal to three times the starting height.
So, for example, if a phanaton jumped from a height of 30',
it could glide over a horizontal distance of 90' maximum (at
the rate of 50' per round). When gliding, a phanaton must
spread its arms and legs to catch the air, and therefore
cannot fight, cast spells, or do anything requiring two hands.
For every 100cn of weight they carry, phanatons reduce
their horizontal gliding range by 20' for the same loss of
altitude as an unencumbered phanaton.

Flight
At 4th level, phanatons can fly - that is, maintain level
flight or gain altitude, but only if updrafts or normal winds
are present. The phanaton can gain 10' of altitude for every
24 of 75

60' if horizontal distance covered with normal winds (see
the Rules Cyclopedia, page 90). A strong breeze will reduce
the horizontal distance covered to 30'. Phanatons do not fly
in high or extreme winds.
Pass Plant
Phanatons gain the magical ability to pass plant, as per the
druid's fifth-level spell. They can use this ability once per
day.
Phanaton Shaman
Also called "wise-ones," they are chosen at birth and
begin learning the way of the shaman from a very young
age. They are entrusted with the knowledge of reading and
writing.
They can only cast spells from the Druidic spell list (see
the Rules Cyclopedia, page 33). Shaman should have both a
wisdom and charisma of 12 or better.
If the Wrath of the Immortals accessory is used, shamen of
Ui gain the ability to move silently and hide in shadows as
thieves of the same experience level so long as they remain
in the trees. Mother earth's shamen gain the mystic's
ability to speak with animals. Shamans of the Huntsman
receive the general skills of Tracking and Alertness, plus
any other general skills they might have.
Jibaru shamen must use up one skill slot in order to read
and write their own language. Common Jibaru don't have
that knowledge. Shaman must then choose two language
skills to speak Treant, Dryad, or Elven (if any such
creatures exist in the phanaton's home), before any other
skills, but with an initial penalty of -3 to their Intelligence
scores. Monarchs and other Jibaru leaders usually have that
skill.
The spoken language is still a primitive as far as
grammar and syntax go, requiring many gestures. The
written language otherwise requires an extensive library of
symbols representing animals whose sounds come close to
the desired syllables. Ideograms conveying ideas
compliment other written symbols available to Jibaru
shaman. The rest is left to the reader's interpretations.
Reaction Adjustments
Phanatons have no adjustments to their charisma when
dealing with elves, treants and dryads. They are at a -1
adjustment when interacting with humanoids, and -2 with
the Aranea.

Spells and Spellcasting
Memorizing Spells
During an adventure, a spell-caster can only use spells
he has slots for. Memorization is a special process of
becoming attuned to the innate magical energy in the
universe around us. When the Spell-casting character
memorizes his spells, he is actually renewing the magical
energy stored in him. But when he casts a spell he uses up
some of that magical energy. For this reason, characters
constantly have to re-memorize spells. The memorization
period usually takes one hour, and must be done after a full
nights rest.
Clerical, Druidic & Shamanic Spells
Clerics and Druids gain their spells through meditation
and prayer. Players can choose which spells their clerics
have access to at the beginning of each day. They do not
need to write down their spells, since they can simply
meditate and/or pray to re-memorize them.
Clerical or Druidic spell-casters may have access to a
number of spells equal to the number of spells/level they
can cast plus one per spell level.
For example, an 8th level cleric can have access to four
1st level spells, four 2nd level spells, three 3rd level spells
and two 4th level spells.
Clerics and Druids can “trade in” spells that they know
for others in their spell list during their meditation period.
This makes them very versatile spell-casters.
Fairy Spells
Fairies do not use spellbooks; nor do they pray, since
they are alienated from the Immortals. To gain or regain
spells, fairies spend time in communion with nature,
gathering the energy and magic of the life around them,
organizing and storing it in patterns. The stored energy is
released as a spell. In play, therefore, fairies may be treated
much like clerical spell-casters who memorize and then cast
spells.
Fairy spell-casters have access to a number of spells
equal to their spells/level.
Magical & Merchant Spells
Magic-Users, elves, merchants (and other spell casters
with access to the magical or merchant spell lists, like the
wokan/wicca) can only use spells that have found,
researched, or have been taught by their mentors. The spells
are recorded in a large, bound volume called a “spell book.”
The book is written in a magical language that only the
magic-user who owns the book can read. Think of it as a
personalized magical equation. This spell book is a list of
the spells that can be used by the character when taking
spells for an adventure. To regain spells the magic-user
must study his spell book to get back in touch with the
magic around him.
Magic-users have access to all of the spells currently in
their spell-book.
Psionic Powers
Psions do not use spell-books; nor do they pray. To gain
or regain their powers, psions spend time in meditation,
gathering the mental energy they need to fuel their powers.
The stored energy is released as a power. In play, therefore,
psions may be treated much like clerical spell-casters who
memorize and then cast spells.
Psions cannot “trade-in” their powers like clerical spellcasters.
Tantric Spells
Tantrists do not use spell-books; nor do they pray. They
harness the sexual energy provided by the people that have
intercourse with. In order to power their spells, Tantrists
must engage in intercourse which must result in at least one
orgasm for the tantrist‟s partner and obtain a full night rest.
The number of orgasms that the Tantrist can cause his
partner to have determines the maximum spell level that he
can cast (not exceeding the maximum spell level as
determined by his level).
Resting and Re-Memorizing
After a spell is cast, the character cannot use that spell
slot again until he is well-rested. One night‟s sleep is
enough rest. Upon awakening, before he spends time on
any strenuous activities, the spell-caster must spend an hour
(of game time) in study, meditation, or communion.
Magical and merchant spell-casters must study their
spellbooks to regain spell slots, while clerical, Druidic, and
Shamanic spell-casters need only meditate and/or pray, and
fairy spell-casters must commune with the nature around
them.
Just because spell-casters spend their mornings doing
their memorization/meditation/communion for spells, it
doesn‟t mean that they lost any unused spell slots overnight.
Unless they wish to do so, they won‟t loose any spell slots
they didn‟t cast. The next morning, the spell-caster needs
only to study/meditate/commune to replace those slots he
used the previous day.
26 of 75

Multiples of the same spell
A character can cast up to 3 applications of the same
spell in any given day. This keeps a lid on high-level spellcasters
so they cannot dominate the game.
Number of Spells Known
In the last chapter, you saw experience tables for
Aranea, Phanaton Shaman, and Shield-Maidens had a block
of columns labeled “Spells/Level.” This column shows you
how many spells of each level the character can cast during
the course of one day.
For instance, take a look at the table below. It is taken
from the experience table of the cleric class.
Cleric
Spells/Level
Level 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
8 3 3 2 1 - - -
In this chart, we see that an 8th level cleric can, at any
one time, cast nine spells and no more. He‟ll be able to cast
their 1st level spells, three 2nd level spells, two 3rd level
spells, and one 4th level spell.
In the course of a day, as he casts charm, he uses up the
slots. If he were to cast two 1 st level spells, and his 4 th level
spell, he‟d only have available spell slots for one 1 st level
spell, three 2 nd level spells, and two 3 rd level spells.
The “Spells/Level” columns on the experience charts
shows how many spells can be cast at any one time, not how
many spells the caster has access to. Spell-casters cannot
cast more than three of the same spell each day. Magicusers
may have more spells in their books than the can ever
cast at any one time, clerics may over a period of days, have
access to the entire clerical spell list as they “trade” spells
with their patron Immortal.
Learning New Spells
Magical Spells
When a magic-user, elf or forester gains a new level he
may learn some new spells. To determine if he does, check
his number of spells known for each spell level in that
class‟s experience table. If the number of spells in his spellbook
of that level is equal to or less than the number of spell
slots than he may add a new spell to his spell-book of the
appropriate spell level.
Fore example a 5 th level magic-user has just advanced to
6 th level. Checking the Magic-User experience table in the
rules cyclopedia, we see that he gains a 2 nd and 4 th level
spell slot. He now checks his new spell slots against the
number of spells in his spell-book. He has 6 1 st level spells,
5 2 nd level spells, 3 3 rd level spells, and 2 4 th level spells.
M-U
Spells/Level
Level 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
7 3 2 2 1 - - - - -
8 3 3 2 2 - - - - -
Number of spells in spellbook
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
# Spells 6 5 3 2 - - - - -
The number of 1 st – 3 rd level spells in his spell-book
exceeds his spell slots. Therefore, he does not learn any new
spells of those levels. His 4 th level spells are equal to his
new spell slots. This means that he can add a 4 th level spell
to his spell book.
This rule‟s purpose is to keep a magic-user from falling
behind in the number of spells he has access to. If a magicuser
has been able to scribe several spells into his spell-book
from other sources then this rule will not benefit him as he
will be ahead of the game. If the campaign has had very few
sources of new spells for the magic-user, then this rule will
keep him from becoming useless.
Druidic Spells

This spell bestows the strength and flexibility of metal to
wood, without altering its appearance. It can affect objects
up to 1,000 cn of encumbrance. It is traditionally used to
create one set of armor or one weapon, often with the help
of a warp wood spell. This spell cannot affect magically
enchanted items made of wood.
Seasons
Sixth Level Druid Spells

monsters. The season of the year determines its effect,
which is not under the druid's control.
Spring - This causes 1d8 points of damage per round of
exposure to all undead in the area of effect (no save).
Humanoid undead reaching 0 Hp are "revived" - that is,
raised from the dead at their lowest possible experience
levels or Hit Dice, and with no relevant memories of their
past. Revived creatures become servants of the druid, as if
magically charmed.
Summer - This creates an area of blinding magical
sunlight, burning undead creatures

First Level Magical Spells
Azure Storm’s Faerie Lightning
Robb Gorman
Range: 60‟
Duration: 1 round per level of caster
Effect: Outlines one target
Source: Azure Storm
This spell is identical to the first level druid spell Faerie
Fire (RC page 41) except that small arcs of illusionary
lightning outline the target.
Azure Storm’s Lightning Missile
Robb Gorman
Range: 150‟
Duration: 1 round
Effect: Creates one or more missiles
Source: Azure Storm
This spell is identical to the Magic Missile spell (RC,
page 45) except that instead of arrows of magical energy
this spell creates balls of electricity.
Azure Storm’s Shocking Grasp
Robb Gorman
Range: Touch
Duration: 1 Round/Level or 1 Touch
Effect: Charges casters hand with electrical
Energy
Source: Azure Storm
When the spell is cast, the caster builds up a powerful
electrical charge in his hands that gives a jolt to the creature
touched. The caster‟s hands remain charged for one round
per level of the caster or until it is discharged by the caster
touching another creature.
A successful unarmed melee attack or an attack with a
conductive weapon i.e. a sword will cause 1d6 points of
damage plus 1 point per level of the caster (1d6+20 damage
maximum) in addition to weapon damage.
Chaotic Alignment*
Mike Yaegar
Range: 60’
Duration: 1 Turn/Level
Effect: 1 living creature
Source: Torkan
This spell changes the target‟s alignment toward chaos
by one increment. A lawful character would become neutral
and a neutral would become chaotic. The effects are
cumulative; therefore casting this spell twice on a lawful
character would turn him chaotic.
The target of this spell must make a saving throw vs.
spells to resist the change. If the target rolls a natural 1 on
his saving throw, the change becomes permanent until the
reverse of this spell is cast and the saving throw is either
voluntarily failed or another natural 1 is rolled.
The reverse of this spell changes the target‟s alignment
toward lawful.
Comprehend Languages*
D&D: Player’s Handbook v3.5
Range: Touch
Duration: 5 Rounds/Level
Effect: 1 speaking creature or written text
Source: Azure Storm
When this spell is cast, the wizard is able to understand
the spoken words of a creature or read an otherwise
incomprehensible written message (such as writing in
another language). In either case, the wizard must touch the
creature or the writing. Note that the ability to read does not
necessarily impart understanding of the material, nor does
the spell enable the caster to speak or write an unknown
language. Written material can be read at the rate of one
page or equivalent per round. Magical writing cannot be
read, other than to know it is magical, but the spell is often
useful when deciphering treasure maps. This spell can be
foiled by certain warding magic (the 3rd-level secret page
and illusionary script spells), and it does not reveal
messages concealed in otherwise normal text.
The reverse of this spell, confuse languages, cancels a
comprehend languages spell or renders a writing or a
creature's speech incomprehensible, for the same duration as
above.
Copy

(roughly 9 inches by 12 inches).
Entropic Shield
Mike Yaegar
Range: 0
Duration: 6 Rounds (1 Minute)/Level
Effect: Self
Source: Torkan
A magical field appears around you, glowing with a
chaotic blast of multicolored hues. This field deflects
incoming arrows, rays, and other ranged attacks. Each
ranged attack directed at you suffers a 20% miss chance.
This miss chance affects all ranged attacks for which the
attackers make attack rolls, including arrows, magic arrows,
and so forth. It does not affect other attacks that simply
work at a distance, such as dragon breath.
Random Action
Mike Yaegar
Range: 30’
Duration: 1 Round
Effect: One living creature
Source: Torkan
The enchanted creature is compelled to act randomly for
one round. Rather than deciding its action for itself, the
subject of the spell takes an action determined randomly on
the following table using 1d8:
1. Attack Self (Succeed on any roll other than a
natural 1).
2. Attack nearest being.
3. Flee away from caster at top possible speed.
4. Drop anything held.
5. Stand motionless (AC 9).
6. Do nothing but defend (full AC, can Block, Parry,
and Dodge).
7. Speak (in the subject‟s native tongue, usually
regarding surface thoughts) or make noises (if not
capable of speech).
8. Attack caster with melee or ranged weapons (or
close with caster if attacking is not possible).

entirely random.
Note: Non-intelligent creatures are immune to mindaffecting
spells.

Remove Curse spell will also restore the victim‟s original
alignment.
The reverse of this spell changes the target‟s alignment
toward lawful.
Wall Of Silence
Jeff Springer
Range: 120'
Duration: 12 turns
Effect: Blocks sound
Source: DylanJir
This spell creates a thin sound barrier of any dimension
and shape determined by the spellcaster, totaling 1,200
square feet or less. The wall can be seen as a noticeable
shimmer in the air; however, the wall is completely
intangible and will not hamper sight or movement in any
way. The wall must be cast to rest on a solid surface,
though it may be vertical or horizontal or anything in
between, and it must completely fill or cover the intended
area to be of effective.
The wall of silence completely blocks all non-magical
sound from passing through, in either direction. Note that
although the verbal components of a spell being cast on the
other side of a wall of silence will not be heard, the effects
of the spell will in no way be affected. Magical soundbased
attacks, such as a banshee's wail or the roar of a
sphinx, will pass through the wall of silence, but the targets
of such attacks receive a +4 bonus to their saving throws, if
one is allowed.

Bernetta’s Whirlwind
Anthony K. Harvey
Range: 100‟
Duration: 1 Round
Effect: 100‟ long x 1-5‟ wide
Source: Bernetta, Royal Magist of Darkonnia
This spell creates a column of wind, extending
horizontally from the caster‟s hands. If the width is from
one to three feet wide, the caster must make a successful to
hit roll before any saving throws are applied. The
whirlwind inflicts 1d6 points of damage per level of the
spell-caster (maximum of 20d6). Thus a 6th level elf would
cast a whirlwind inflicting 6d6 damage.
Each victim must make a saving throw vs. spells. If
successful, he sustains only half damage. If the saving
throw is failed, not only does he the victim take full damage
but also is knocked back 5‟ per three levels of the spellcaster

whirlwind 100‟ long by 3‟ wide, inflicting 10d6 damage.
Any victims hit (with a successful to hit roll), who failed
their saving throw vs. spells, are blown back 15 feet.

weapons.
Magic Circle against Law*
D&D: Player’s Handbook v3.5
Range: Touch
Duration: 12 Turns (1 Hour)/Level
Effect: 10’ Radius
Source: Torkan
This spell functions like Protection from Evil10’ Radius,
except that it only affects lawful creatures and the duration
is longer.
Unlike Protection form Evil 10’ Radius, this spell has a
special function that you may choose when casting the spell.
A magic circle can be focused inward rather than outward.
In this case, it serves as an immobile, temporary magical
prison for a summoned creature. The creature cannot cross
the circle‟s boundaries. If this spell is cast and focused
inward one round before a summoning or conjuring spell is
cast, the magic circle can hold the summoned lawful
creature for 24 hours per level of the caster.
If a creature too large to fit in the spell‟s area is the
subject of the spell, the spell acts as a normal protection
from evil for that creature only.
The reverse of this spell, Magic Circle against Chaos,
functions in the same manner against chaotic creatures.
Tongues
AD&D 2 nd : Player’s Handbook
Range: Touch
Duration: 1 turn/level

Torkan’s Chaotic Stream
Mike Yaegar
Range: 180’
Duration: Instantaneous
Effect: 5’ wide by 60’ long
Source: Torkan
You conjure an arching bolt of chaotic energy that
originates in the 5‟ square occupied by the target of the
spell. This chaotic stream of energy inflicts 1d6 points of
damage per level (20d6 maximum). A saving throw vs.
spells will reduce the damage by half.
The stream will randomly arch to an adjacent square
until it has reached its maximum length of 60‟ (12 squares
total, including the point of origin). Roll 1d8 (or 1d6 for
hexes) to determine the direction of the stream. A roll of one
indicates that the stream continues behind the target. The
other numbers progress in a clockwise fashion.
Vacuum*
Mike Yaegar
Range: Immediate Area, 8,000 Cu. Ft.
Duration: 1 Hour/Level
Effect: Removes breathable air
Source: Torkan
This is the newly researched reversed form of the Create
Air spell. This spell removes all air. It is cast on a volume of
8,000 cubic feet (such as a 20‟ x 20‟ x 20‟ room) and, while
it in effect, the area is a total vacuum. Anyone inside the
vacuum when the duration ends will take 1d4 points of
buffeting damage from the air rushing in.
This spell can be negated by its non-reversed form,
Create Air (see page 48 or the D&D Rules Cyclopedia).

You unleash chaotic power to smite your enemies. The
power takes the form of a multicolored explosion of leaping,
ricocheting energy. Only lawful and neutral (not chaotic)
creatures are harmed by the spell.
This spell deals 1d8 points of damage per two levels
(maximum 10d8) to lawful creatures and staggers them for
32 of 75

1d6 rounds. A staggered character can only take a 5-foot
move as his action, and cannot perform any complex actions
(such as spell-casting, attacking, or using scrolls and
command words). A successful saving throw vs. spells
reduces the damage by half and negates the stagger effect.

creatures, and they are not staggered. They can reduce
damage by half again (down to one-quarter of the roll) with
a successful saving throw vs. spells.

together without physical attachments. The caster must
touch both objects and position them as they are to be held
together. Organic material may be joined but living and
animated material cannot. The meld can be broken by three
dispel magic spells targeted at the melds.

Torkan’s Chaos Ball
Mike Yaegar
Range: 240’
Duration: Instant
Effect: Explosion in a 40’ sphere
Source: Torkan
You smite down your enemies by conjuring a explosion
of chaotic energy. The chaotic energy released by the spell
inflicts 1d6 points of damage per two levels (10d6
maximum) of the caster if the targets make a saving throw
vs. spells.
If the saving throw is failed, the target suffers no
damage, but is mutated by the chaos energy. Those affected
in this manner must roll a random hit location and consult
the charts below. Also, the mutating target will be stunned
for 1d6 rounds due the intense pain inflicted by the mutation
process as the chaotic energy reshapes him.

Source: Azure Storm
This spell protects the recipient and all worn or carried
items against electrical discharges of both magical and
natural origins. Any electrical attacks or effects directed
against the caster are met by this spell. The person protected
by this spell is allowed a saving throw against vs. spells to
reflect the back at its caster or point of origin. A failed
saving reflects only half of the force of the attack.
Copy Spellbook
Anthony K. Harvey
Range: 5'
Duration: Instantaneous
Effect: One Spell-book
Source: Etienne D‟Amberville
The copy spell enables the caster to make a perfect copy
of a spell-book. The caster must have a blank book with
blank pages of sufficient size to hold the copy. The caster
holds the blank object over the object to be copied, then
casts the spell; the copy appears on the formerly blank
object. The magical notation is now in the caster‟s notation.
The length of the text is limited to 5 pages of standard size
(roughly 9 inches by 12 inches) per caster level
Dispel Law*
D&D: Player’s Handbook v3.5
Range: 0
Duration: 1 Round/Level or until discharged
Effect: Self & Touched Creature/Obj./Effect
Source: Torkan
A flickering, yellow, chaotic energy surrounds you. This
power has three effects:
1. You gain a +4 bonus to AC against attacks by lawful
creatures.
2. On making a successful melee attack against a lawful
creature from another plane, you can choose to drive that
creature back to his home plane. The creature negates the
effects with a saving throw vs. spells. This use discharges
and ends the spell.
3. With a touch, you can automatically dispel any one
enchantment cast by a lawful creature or any one lawful
spell. Exception: Spells that can‟t be dispelled by Dispel
Magic also can‟t be dispelled by Dispel Law. Saving throws
do not apply to this effect. This use discharges and ends the
spell.
The reverse of this spell, Dispel Chaos, acts in the same
manner against chaotic individuals.
Duplicate Book
Anthony K. Harvey
Range: 5'
Duration: Instantaneous
Effect: One Non-magical Book
Source: Etienne D‟Amberville
The copy spell enables the caster to make a perfect copy
of a book, tome, or other bound volume. The duplicate book
magically appears next to the original. The caster stands
over the object to be copied, then casts the spell. The
duplicate is identical to the original in every way. The
length of the text is limited to 5 pages of standard size
(roughly 9 inches by 12 inches) per caster level
Field Of Silence
Jeff Springer
Range: 120'
Duration: 6 turns
Effect: Blocks sound
Source: DylanJir
This spell creates an invisible, immovable barrier which
completely blocks any sound from traveling in either
direction. A field of silence's shape is limited to a sphere, a
hemisphere, a flat surface, a cylinder, a square or
rectangular box with flat sides, or part of such a box. The
sphere's radius can be a maximum of 20'. The flat surface
or combinations thereof may be up to 5,000 square feet in
total area. The field of silence cannot be irregular in shape.
It can be as small as the caster desires.
Inertial Armor
Robb Gorman
Range: Touch
Duration: 1 turn/level
Effect: Protects caster from physical damage
Source: Azure Storm
This spell creates a field around the caster, 1” from the
caster‟s body that suppresses incoming kinetic energy. The
caster takes half damage from any falls.
Damage from weapons is also reduced. Slashing and
piercing weapons do half damage (round up) and blunt
weapons do minimum damage.
For example, if a fighter with a 16 strength hit him with a
two-handed sword, he would take (1d10+2)/2 damage. So if
this fighter rolled 9 points of damage (1d10+2), then his
damage would be reduced to 5 (9/2 = 4.5 rounded up = 5).
35 of 75

Now if a cleric with the same strength hit him with a mace,
he would only take 3 points of damage (1 on 1d6 +2 for
strength).
Sixth Level Magical Spells
Anchored Wizard Eye
Jeff Springer
Range: 240'
Duration: 1 day per level of the spellcaster
Effect: Creates movable invisible eye
Source: DylanJir
This spell creates an invisible eye through which the
caster can see. It is the size of a real eye and has infravision
(60' range). It is cast upon a particular place or immobile
object, which then acts as the point to which the wizard eye
is anchored. Thereafter, the range at which the eye may be
utilized is 1 mile per level of the caster. The spellcaster
must concentrate (without moving) to see through an eye,
direct it to move, or to switch between eyes. The wizard eye
can float through the air at up to 120' per turn, but will not
go through solid objects nor move more than 240' away
from the point to which it is anchored. A spellcaster can
have no more wizard eyes operating at any given time than
his Intelligence score (this includes the normal wizard eye
spell as well). If casting a new wizard eye spell brings him
over this limit, the oldest casting of the spell will be
terminated.
Azure Storm’s Chain Lightning
Robb Gorman
Range: 180‟
Duration: Instant
Effect: Arcing lightning of variable length
Source: Azure Storm
This spell creates an electrical discharge that begins as a
single stroke of lightning, 2½ feet wide, commencing from
the fingertips of the caster. Unlike a lightning bolt spell,
chain lightning strikes one object or creature initially, then
arcs to a series of other objects or creatures within range,
losing energy with each jump.
The bolt initially inflicts 1d6 points of damage per level
of the caster, to a maximum of 12d6 (half damage if the
object or creature rolls a successful saving throw vs. spell).
After the first strike, the lightning arcs to the next nearest
object or creature. Each jump reduces the strength of the
lightning by 1d6. Each creature or magical object hit
receives a saving throw vs. spell. Success on this save
indicates the creature suffers only half damage from the
bolt.
The chain can strike as many times (including the first
object or creature) as the spell-caster has levels, although
each creature or object can be struck only once. Thus, a bolt
cast by a 12th-level wizard can strike up to 12 times,
causing less damage with each strike. The bolt continues to
arc until it has struck the appropriate number of objects or
creatures, until it strikes an object that grounds it
(interconnecting iron bars of a large cell or cage, a large
pool of liquid, etc.), or until there are no more objects or
creatures to strike.
Direction is not a consideration when plotting chain
lightning arcs. Distance is a factor - an arc cannot exceed
the spell's range. If the only possible arc is greater than the
spell's range, the stroke fades into nothingness. Creatures
immune to electrical attack can be struck, even though no
damage is taken. Note that it is possible for the chain to arc
back to the caster!
Greater Attunement
Robb Gorman
Range: Touch
Duration: Instant
Effect: Enhancement of magic item creation
Source: Azure Storm
This is a stronger version of the attunement spell. It
purifies the item completely and gives the item it maximum
receptivity to incoming spells. The enchantment time is
reduced by 50%.
Heavy Telekinesis
Robb Gorman
Range: 120’
Duration: 6 rounds
Effect: 500cn of weight per level of caster
Source: Azure Storm
This spell is similar to the fifth level spell telekinesis
only it can handle a greater amount of weight per level of
the caster. Minimum weight to lift is 200cn per level.
Levitate Building
Anthony K. Harvey
Range: 10‟
Duration: Until set down
Effect: 1 Building
Source: Bernetta, Royal Magist of Darkonnia
When cast on a building that has no underground
components, it will rise up to six feet off of the ground. It
only takes light pushing/pulling to get it to move. The
building does not count against the puller‟s encumbrance for
movement. The spell lasts until the building is set down.
Power Word Mute
Jeff Springer
Range: 120'
36 of 75

Duration: 2d4+1 or 1d4+1 rounds
Effect: Prevents one creature with 60 hit points or less
from speaking
With this spell, the caster may render mute one victim
within 120' (no saving throw). A victim with 1-30 hit points
is rendered mute for 2d4+1 rounds; a victim with 31-60 hit
points is rendered mute for 1d4+1 rounds. The spell does
not effect creatures with more than 61 hit points.
A victim rendered mute may not speak or vocalize in
any way. Verbal communication, spellcasting, and the use
of items with command words are not possible.
Seventh Level Magical Spells
Azure Storm’s Delayed Blast Lightning Ball
Robb Gorman
Range: 240‟
Duration: 0 to 60 Rounds
Effect: Delayed blast lightning ball of 20‟
Radius
Source: Azure Storm
As the name implies, this is a version of Azure Storm’s
Lightning Ball spell whose blast can be delayed; it behaves
like a time bomb. When he casts the spell, the caster states
the exact number of rounds of delay (from 0 to 60) until the
spell detonates. A small rock, very similar in appearance to
a valuable gem, then shoots out toward the desired location,
and remains at that location until the stated delay elapses.
The “gem” may be picked up, carried, and so forth.
When the stated duration ends, it explodes in an effect
identical to the normal Lightning Ball – a sudden
instantaneous sphere of electricity inflicting 1d6 points of
damage per level of the caster (20d6 Maximum) to all
within the area of effect (a sphere of 20‟ radius). Each
victim may make a saving throw vs. spells to take half
damage.
Once the spell has been cast, the explosion cannot be
hurried nor further delayed, except with a wish. The “gem”
created is pure magic, not an actual object, and cannot be
moved magically (by telekinesis, teleport, etc.); however, it
can be dispelled.

Word of Chaos
Mike Yaegar
Range: 0
Duration: Instant
Effect: 30’ Radius
Source: Torkan
Uttering word of chaos creates two effects:
If you are on your home plane, non-chaotic extraplanar
creatures within the area are instantly banished to their
home planes. Creatures so banished cannot return for 1 day.
This effect takes place regarolless of whether the creatures
hear the word of chaos.
Creatures native to your home plane who hear the word
of chaos are not chaotic suffer the following ill effects:
HD

Up to 4 Killed, Confused, Stunned and
Deafened
5-8 Confused, Stunned, Deafened
9-12 Stunned, Deafened
12+ Deafened
The effects are Cumulative.
Deafened: The creature is struck deaf for 1d4 rounds.
Stunned: The creature is stunned for 1 round. A stunned
creature can‟t act and loses any dexterity bonus to AC.
Attackers gain a +2 bonus to attack it.
Confused: The creature is confused, as the confusion
spell, for 1d10 minutes (1d10x6 rounds). This is a mindaffecting
enchantment.

Fourth Level Radiance Spells
Detect Radiance Usage
Anthony K. Harvey
Range: 0‟ (Self)
Duration: 1 hour per nobility rank
Effect: 4 miles + 8 miles radius per level
During the duration of this spell, the caster can sense the
energy flow of the radiance around him. He becomes aware
of the intensity of the radiance field and can sense highs and
lows in that field. Highs are caused by items and locations
that generate radiance energy. Lows are caused by radiance
items and active radiance spells as they draw their energy
from the radiance.
Seventh Level Radiance Spells
Bestow Mutation
Anthony K. Harvey
Range: 30‟
Duration: Permanent
Effect: 1 creature
The caster emits a ray of radiance from his finger. If the
caster successfully makes a ranged attack roll against the
target and expends a number of rads equal to the target‟s
constitution, the target must make a successful saving throw
vs. spells to avoid being mutated by the ray. If the save is
failed, there is a 50% chance that the mutation is either
physical or mental in nature.
This spell requires a copy of the Gamma World rulebook
(pick your favorite version – I suggest 1 st or 2 nd edition since
it requires almost no conversion). Roll on the tables
provided in the Gamma World rulebook to see which
mutation is bestowed upon the target.
This effect is permanent until removed by a wish. Note
that a wish an only remove mutations in the order of newest
to oldest.
Eighth Level Radiance Spells
Create Radiance Mutant
Anthony K. Harvey
Range: Touch
Duration: Permanent
Effect: 1 creature
This spell takes an hour to complete. During which the
caster directly channels concentrated radiance energy (equal
to the victim‟s constitution score in rads) from his receptacle
into the subject‟s body while casting this spell. At the
completion of this spell, the creature becomes a radiance
mutant (see the monsters section later in this document) of a
type designated by the caster.
The subject receives a saving throw vs. spells. Success
indicates that he instead suffers 6d6 points of radiance
damage instead of being mutated.
Saturation
AD&D 2 nd : Glantri: Kingdom of Magic
Range: Touch
Duration: 1 hour per level
Effect: 10‟ radius per level
The caster of saturation drenches a region with the
Radiance, making magic more powerful and easier to use
for all in the affected area. To accomplish this feat, the
caster must expel 20 rads into an immobile material object
(like a spot on the ground, a tree, etc.) by touching it.
Magical spells cast within this area all respond as though
affected by a call upon radiance spell. Furthermore, all
saving throws in the area versus magical, elf, or merchant
(not clerical, druidic, or shamanic) power or effect suffer a -
2 penalty. (Anti-Magic drops by 20% as well, if applicable.)
Items with charges expend them at only half of their normal
rate.
The only exception to this effect, the anti-magic shell
spell, not only goes unaided by the saturation spell‟s
effects, it is immediately cancelled within the saturated area.
The area simply contains too much magical power to
counter.
Creatures powered by or subsisting upon magic – such
as elementals, golems, created undead, etc. – gain 1 hp per
Hit Die while in the area of effect. Treat them as though
they have an extra HD for purposes of saving throws,
THAC0, spell effects, etc.
Any magic-user, elf or merchant entering a saturated
area can sense the effect immediately as a tingling feeling
and occasional crackling of energy. Its benefits become
obvious once the person casts a spell. Casters cannot limit
the area‟s effects only to themselves or those they wish to
aid – any magical spell-caster in the area can take advantage
of the spell‟s effects.
Casting saturation requires either the use of the
receptacle or prior use of summon radiance.
Ninth Level Radiance Spells
Sever the Tie
AD&D 2 nd : Glantri: Kingdom of Magic
Range: 100‟
Duration: Special
Effect: 1 creature
Source: Glantri: Kingdom of Magic
If successful cast on a target, this spell makes that target
unable to use radiance spells – it completely cuts off the
target from the radiance. Ant casting attempt by the target
results in immediate, automatic failure. Innate radiance
38 of 75

powers are likewise nullified. Any radiance spell cast upon
the target automatically becomes dispelled.
This spell immediately destroys a radiance golem or
other radiance dependant being that fails a saving throw vs.
spells.
Sever the Tie lasts until: The caster dies; the receptacle is
destroyed (if one was used); the duration of summon
radiance ends (if it was used); or until the caster willingly
dispels the effect. Dispel magic will not work, nor will any
other spell end the condition, short of a wish.
Magic-users must cast this spell within 30‟ of the
receptacle or during the duration of summon radiance.
Psionic Powers
Attack Modes
A psion initiates psionic combat by targeting any
opponent in range with one of the five psionic attack modes
he or she knows. Using a psionic attack mode used an
attack, and normally only one attack is allowed in a round.
The farther away the target is from the less effective the
attack is. At short range, the target‟s saving throw is
penalized by -1, and receives a +1 bonus at long range.

individuality. It strikes like a glowing whip, its crack slicing
open the wells of inferiority and worthlessness buried deep
behind the target‟s defenses.
If used against an opened mind, Ego Whip leaves the
target dazed for 1d4 rounds. During this time, all attacks are
at –4 and can not cast spells.

Save: -2
Damage:
2d4+1 non-lethal mental
Range: 20/40/60

mental battering ram tearing through the walls that separate
primitive needs from social constraints.
If used against an opened mind, Id Insinuation leaves its
victim confused and powerless to act for 1d4 rounds.
If a critical hit is rolled while attacking an opened mind,
the target is driven insane until cured. This form of insanity
takes the form of having all social constraints removed, and
his primitive needs run amok.
Mind Blast (MB)
Charges:
1 / 5 Levels per Day
Save: 0
Damage:
1d8 lethal mental
Range: 20/40/80
This attack takes the form of a wave of mental force that

Critical hits are treated normally for this power.
Mind Thrust (MT)
Charges:
2 / Level per Day
Save: +3
Damage:
1d4 non-lethal mental
Range: 30/60/90
This attack stabs the mind of the defender, piercing
thoughts and memories.
If used on an opened mind, Mind Thrust causes the
target to lose the use of one psionic power (chosen
randomly) for 1d6 days.
On a critical hit on an opened mind, one psionic power
(chosen randomly) is lost for 1d6 weeks.
Psychic Crush (PC)
Charges:
1 / 3 Levels per Day
Save: -1
Damage:
1d10 non-lethal mental
Range: 5/25/50
Like a terrible mental weight, this attack seeks to crush a
defender‟s mind.
If used against an opened mind, Psionic Crush causes
1d6 lethal mental damage.
If a critical hit is rolled while attacking an opened mind,
the target becomes Feebleminded as per the spell.
Defense Modes
A character defending against a psionic attack mode
makes a saving throw versus spells to determine the success
or failure of the attack, modified by the attack and defense
mode‟s saving throw modifiers. A saving throw may no get
any worse than 19 or any better than 2. Unless surprised or
out of charges, psions can respond to a psionic attack by
putting up one of the five psionic defense modes. The
defender is aware of the attack, but not the specific attack
mode. Following the attack, the defender knows which
39 of 75

attack mode it was, regarolless of the success or failure of
the attack to deal damage.

First Level Psionic Powers
Biocurrent
Range: 120‟
Duration:
Up to 6 rounds / level
Effect:
Up to 2 creatures
Your body‟s psionically fueled bioelectric currents
produce an arc of blue-white electricity that targets a
primary foe for 1d4 points of damage per round (see below).
Electricity also arcs off of the primary foe to strike one
additional foe initially within 15 feet of the primary foe, or
who subsequently moves within 15 feet of the primary foe
while the duration lasts. Secondary foes also take 1d4 points
of damage per round the duration lasts. Should either the
primary or secondary for fall to below 0 hit points,
Biocurrent’s electrical arc randomly retargets another
primary or secondary foe while the duration continues.
Targeted foes may move or make a saving throw versus
spells each round for half damage (on that round only), but
as long as they remain in range, they continue to be affected.
Maintaining Biocurrent is an attack action (you are limited
to a maximum movement of 5 feet). If you take damage
while maintaining Biocurrent, you must make a saving
throw versus death ray or the electrical arc winks out.
Call Weaponry

know of the weapon to call it – in fact, you can‟t ever call a
specific weapon. You just specify the type. If the specified
weapon type is one you can call at your level, it appears. If
you call a projectile weapon, it comes complete with 3d6
bolts, arrows or sling bullets, as appropriate (the
ammunition does not have a magical bonus). If you
relinquish your grip on the weapon you called for 2 or more
rounds, it automatically returns to wherever it originally
came from.
As your level increases, you can summon better and better
weapons.

10-12 +1 Bonus Short Bow +1
13-15 +2 Bonus Spear +2
16-17 +3 Bonus Bastard Sword +3
18+ +4 Bonus War Hammer +4
Weapons with magical bonuses are assumed to be Psionic,
unless you specify otherwise. Weapons gained by Call
Weaponry are distinctive due to their low hum they emit.

Easy: These skills may be used untrained easily.
However, the skill‟s chance of success is three-quarters
normal. For example: a character with a dexterity of 15
needs to make a riding check to maintain control of his
horse. He does not have this skill and thus must default to
his dexterity to make the check. 15 – 4 (¼ of 15 is 3.75) =
11. He must roll an 11 or less to keep control of the horse.
Difficult: These skills present a challenge to use
untrained. Skill rolls are at half normal.
Hard: These skills are extremely difficult to use
untrained. Skill checks have only the quarter of their trained
chance of success.
Varies: These skills tend to be conditional in how
difficult they are to use untrained. The DM must make an ad
hoc decision regarding the difficulty level depending on the
character‟s knowledge, skills, background, and situation.
The following table can be used as a quick reference for
reduced chances of success.
For those of you who like using universal tables like in
Marvel Super Heroes, I have developed the following table.
It has the same function as the table listed above; it‟s just in
a graphical format.

On a successful intelligence check, the user can repair a
jammed weapon. Each attempt takes a full hour. He may
try as many times as needed to repair the weapon. An
unmodified score of 20 causes the weapon to break
permanently.

Successful use of this skill (a successful Dexterity
check) allows the archer to add a +1 bonus to his to-hit rolls
when using missile weapons. Also, the archer will gain a
+1 to initiative rolls as well. This skill should only be used
if weapon mastery is not used.
If the archer has a +1 or +2 to his archery skill, than he
may also add his skill bonuses to both to-hit rolls and
initiative. In addition, the archer will receive bonuses to
damage equal to the bonus on the Archery skill. This skill
can only have a maximum of +2 added to it.
Example: Lyan Windrunner the Forester has
Archery+2. Assuming that she makes her Dexterity check,
she will now have a +3 to her to-hit rolls and initiative as
well as a +2 to damage!
Fan Shooting
Origin: Cimarron County
Source: Dragon #176, Page 39
The user attempts to shoot as many darts as possible
within one round. The extent of success on the user's
Dexterity check indicates the number of darts that can be
fired in a given combat round. A successful Dexterity check
allows at least two shots during the same round.
Fan Shooting
Dexterity Number To-hit
beaten by: of shots: penalty
1-2 2 -1
3-5 3 -2
6-8 4 -3
9-11 5 -4
12+ 6 -5
Each successive shot suffers a cumulative -1 penalty to
hit (-1 for the first shot, -2 for the second shot, etc.)
The first shot when the user should normally be allowed
to fire a missile weapon during the combat round. Each
successive shot then alternates with other missile-weapon
users in the user's group. If there is none of the latter, all
remaining shots take place at the end of the user's Missile
Weapon phase. Fast Draw and Fan Shooting skills can be
used simultaneously.
Fast Draw
Origin: Cimarron County
Source: Dragon #176, Page 39
Upon making a successful Dexterity check, a user can
shoot before anyone else during a combat round, regarolless
of the original initiative result. If two opponents fight a duel
and both use the Fast Draw skill, the one who beats his
dexterity score by the highest amount gains initiative.
Hip Shooting
Origin: Cimarron County
Source: Dragon #176, Page 39
The user has the ability to shoot from the hip. This skill
allows the user to shoot faster, adding a +2 bonus to
dexterity checks made for Fast Draw or Fan Shooting
attempts. Unfortunately, it is less accurate and causes a -2
penalty to hit in both cases.
45 of 75

Sharp-Shooting
Origin: Cimarron County
Source: Dragon #176, Page 39
On any to-hit roll of 20 or better after modifications, the
user may make an extra Dexterity check. If successful, the
user designates a particular spot on the target to be hit.
Charisma
Sexcraft
Origin: Kingdom of Darkonnia
Source: Anthony K. Harvey
The practitioner of this skill elevates sex play into an art
form. This skill also allows those who know deeper erotic
secrets to gain power.
If you are using the optional Sex Tricks rules, a character
with points in this skill can select a number of tricks equal
to your Intelligence adjustment plus any extra points
invested in this skill.
If you are not using the Intercourse rules described in the
DM Procedures section, feel free to use the system
described here.
Use the Untrained Skill Penalties table (see above) to
determine the success ranges for this skill.
Result Effect
Natural 20 Disastrous
Failure One-Sided
Score Routine

Difficult Memorable
Hard Earth Shattering
Natural 1 Religious Experience
Disastrous: Bad sex gone worse! Not only did you have
a bad time but your partner is liable to break up with you
after this experience. You receive a -3 penalty to all
interaction rolls with this person for 1d4 weeks.
One-Sided: It was good for you but not for your partner
(who might have been faking it). You receive a -1 to all
interaction rolls when dealing with this person for 1d4 days.
Routine: Your standard roll in the hay. Both parties
achieve satisfaction but nothing special happens.
Pleasurable: You have shown more flair than the
typical lover. It was defiantly good for both of you. You
receive a +1 bonus to all interaction rolls when dealing with
this person for the next 1d4 days.
Memorable: Multiple orgasms were obtained during
this session. You have impressed your partner so much that
you receive a +2 to all interaction rolls with this person for
the next 1d8 days.
Earth Shattering: One of the greatest experiences of
your lives! If you keep this up, you may develop a
reputation as a great lover. You receive a +3 bonus to all
interaction rolls with this person for the next 1d4 weeks and
+1 with anyone who finds you sexually attractive who has
heard of your exploits.
Religious Experience: This is the stuff that legends
come from! You may even draw the attention of immortals
in time. You receive a +4 bonus to all interaction rolls with
this person for the next 1d6 weeks and +2 with anyone who
finds you sexually attractive who has heard of your exploits.
Skill Mastery
This is an alternate skill system using the general skill
entries presented in the D&D Rules Cyclopedia. While it
makes use of each skill as presented in that book, the rules
governing usage, acquisition and advancement are replaced
by this rules set.
Beginning Skills
All first level characters start with skill slots, plus a
number of skill slots equal to the character‟s Intelligence
adjustment. These can be used to purchase basic mastery in
a skill.
Skill Mastery Level
The Skill Mastery system utilizes a system similar to
Weapon Mastery for determining a character‟s proficiency
in a chosen skill.
Each skill has two sources from which the skill check
bonus is derived: The character‟s Mastery Level in that skill
and the character‟s ability adjustment listed as the skill‟s
“key stat.” A key stat is the ability score (such as Strength,
Dexterity, etc.) most related to the task that that skill
handles.
Then number of skill slots invested in a skill determines
its mastery level as per the following chart:
Slots Level of Mastery Base Score
0 Unskilled 0
1 Basic 3
2 Skilled 6
3 Expert 9
4 Master 12
5 Grand Master 15
The character‟s key ability score adjustment modifies
the base score. The sum of these two values is your skill
mastery score.
How Skills Are Used
When the Dungeon Master feels that one of the
character‟s skills is appropriate for a situation, he may ask
the player to make a skill check.
In order to make a skill check, the player rolls a d20
against the character‟s relevant skill mastery score. If the
number rolled is equal to or less than the skill‟s level, the
character has succeeded in that task.
46 of 75

Difficulty Level
Some situations are trickier than others. In order to
reflect this, conditional modifiers are assigned by the
Dungeon Master to the character‟s skill mastery score. The
modifiers are listed on the following table:
Difficulty Level
Modifier
Child's Play +10
Basic +8
Simple +6
Easy +4
Below Average +2
Average 0
Tough -2
Challenging -4
Formadible -6
Daunting -8
Heroic -10
Legendary -12
Epic -14
Nie Impossible -16
Unless the DM rules otherwise, if a difficulty level
modifier would cause the modified skill mastery score to
drop below a value of 1, then the task is considered
impossible. If the DM does allow the check, then the skill
mastery score is set to its minimum value of 1.
Conversely, any skill mastery score that is modified
above 19 is considered trivial for the character and is
automatically successful. If the DM requires the character to
make a roll, the score is considered to be set at 19.
Improving Skills
Every level a character advances; he gains one
additional skill slot to spend on either acquiring a new skill
or improving an existing skill to the next mastery level.
Refer to the Skill Mastery Level section above for a list of
mastery levels and their relative slot costs.
The Winds of Fate
This is a version of the Waves of Fate as described in
PC4: The Sea People. This expanded version is designed for
generic usage.

good life and 1d4-1 unfortunate legacies.

perception checks. Everyone is considered to be
invisible to you. Your chance of being surprised
increases to 3 in 6.

made by creatures not of your race and gender.
11. Clumsy: -1 to dexterity; make a Dexterity check

an enclosed or cluttered space, or carries out a
dexterity related task; failure indicates that your
character drops his weapon, breaks something, or

12. Color Blind: You can‟t determine differences in
color. You see everything in black and white.
13. Deaf: You cannot make any hearing-based

your character will be fidgety. A successful
48 of 75

Wisdom check is required or your character will

19. Kink: You are turned on by certain acts, traits, or
phenomena. Examples include bestiality, crossdressing,
Diapering, erotic asphyxia, exhibitionism,
genital piercing, hemophilia, masochism,
plushophilia (“furry”), pedophilia, necrophilia,
sadism, squirting, voyeurism, and xenophilia.
20. Lechery: Make a Wisdom check to avoid making a
pass at any character of the opposite sex. Modifiers
to the check should be based on race and beauty.
21. Light Sleeper: You wake up to the slightest
disturbance and often have problems getting a good
sleep. You will wake up on a successful
intelligence roll with a +5 bonus.
22. Lunacy: During the full moon, your personality

one; it can be fun to role-play.
23. Magic Susceptibility: You are more likely to be
affected by magic and receive a -2 penalty to all

25. Mute: You have no vocal cords and cannot speak.
26. Nymphomania/Satyriasis: You are addicted to
sex and must some kind of sexual contact daily.

27. Phobia: You must make a successful Bravery skill
check or a Wisdom check at -2 to avoid panic
whenever you encounter the object of your fear.
Panic causes you to flee, or to resist all attempts to
come closer to the object of your phobia.
28. Physical Spellcaster: Your body cannot handle the
load of channeling magical energies well. Every
time you cast a spell, you take non-lethal damage
equal to the spell‟s level.
29. Self-Important: No one is more important than
you, and everyone must be made aware of this.
NPCs react toward you with a -5 penalty.
30. Sex Object: You are a sexual being who needs and
revels in carnal pleasure, and people can sense this
about you. You suffer from the Easily Aroused
legacy. You are seen as a tempting sexual target by
villains and monsters alike, evil opponents that are
sexually compatible will take advantage of you if
the situation is correct. Also, anyone raping you
does not suffer the rape penalty to their sexcraft
checks. You may re-roll this result if you do not
want non-consensual or rape encounters with your
character to occur occasionally.
31. Sexual Prey: You are seen as a tempting sexual
target by villains and monsters alike, and you are
more likely to have enemies attempt to seduce you
instead of kill you. Any sexually compatible
opponent or monster will try to molest you. You
may re-roll this result if you do not want nonconsensual
or rape encounters with your character
to occur often.
32. Sleepwalker: Walking in your sleep is usually just
embarrassing; however during an adventure this
can be quite dangerous. Each night you must make
a successful Wisdom check to avoid walking in
your sleep. You wake up after walking for 1d6
minutes or if some else awakens you.
33. Slow Healer: You heal slower that other people. If
using options 1 or 2, you receive the minimum
possible benefit from natural healing. If using
option 3, you recover only half the Hp you are
normally entitled to.
34. Sterile/Barren: You cannot produce offspring but
are otherwise a fully functional member of your
sex.
35. Stutters: Your character has difficulty speaking
clearly. Spell-casters with this problem must make
a successful Intelligence/Wisdom check when
casting spells to avoid spell failure.
36. Submissive: You react meekly and obediently to
anyone that you regard as dominant over you. This
includes those with perceived authority over you or
anyone who has bested you in some kind of
contest.
37. Truthful: You find it hard to tall lies; make a
Wisdom check at -5 any time you attempt to lie or
mislead.
38. Uncouth: You behave in an ill-mannered, if not
disgusting, way (use your imagination); NPCs react
toward you with a -5 penalty.
41. Un-endowed: Your breasts or penis are much
smaller than average. Decrease bust size by 2 cup
sizes or penis length by 30%
39. Wise: +1 to Wisdom.
40. Unfortunate Accident: Your character has
suffered a bad accident. One of your abilities is
reduced by 1 point; roll 1d6 to determine which: 1,
Strength; 2, Intelligence; 3, Wisdom; 4, Dexterity;
5, Constitution; 6, Charisma.

Combat
Expanded Rules
Ambidexterity and Weapon Mastery
If a character has the ambidexterity general skill, it has an
effect on his weapon mastery when attacking with two
weapons.
Normally, if a character attempts to attack with a second
weapon in order to gain an extra attack, he suffers a –4 to hit
and –1 weapon mastery level. With ambidexterity, he no
longer suffers the –1 mastery level penalties when using his
other hand. However he will still suffer the –4 penalty to hit
with his other hand due to the level of concentration needed
to coordinate both attacks simultaneously.
If a character normally attacks multiple times per round,
then this rule only applies if he is attempting to gain an extra
attack beyond his allotted amount.
Critical Hits and Misses
A character can achieve spectacular results during
combat, often from sheer luck. In order to reflect this,
critical his and misses have been instituted. This rule
appears in another source, but is difficult to find. Therefore,
it is repeated here with the addition of critical misses.
The critical hit and miss rules extend to all spells that
require a roll to hit.
If a character rolls a natural 1 on an attack roll, the
character must immediately succeed at a saving throw vs.
death ray or fumble his attack. A fumbled attack can take
sever forms and is deliberately left up the player‟s and DM
imagination because a static table cannot take any specific
factors into account. Some possible results include:
1. Dropping his weapon
2. Breaking his weapon or injuring his natural
weapon (1d2 points of damage)
3. Misfiring (and possibly hitting an ally or himself)
4. Becoming distracted (by a fantastically beautiful or
horridly ugly creature)
5. If wrestling, he places himself into a bad position.
He moves either makes his worse by one level or
immediately frees his opponent.
On a natural roll of 18, a character inflicts maximum
possible damage.
On a natural roll of 19, he inflicts maximum possible
damage. This damage does not get reduced by Armor Value
(if used).
A natural 20, automatically hits/pins and inflicts double
maximum damage. This damage does not get reduced by
Armor Value (if used).
Remember that all damage multipliers are combined and
applied after all damage bonuses are applied. If a character
is using magic items, special abilities, and/or weapon
mastery levels that grant a x2 multiplier to damage, increase
the base multiplier by one for each additional x2 multiplier.
For Example: A thief with a strength of 13, a dagger
+2, and Grand Mastery in daggers (4d4, x2 damage on a
natural 17-20) uses his backstab (+4 to hit, x2 damage)
ability to get the drop on an enemy.
He rolls a natural 20 on his attack roll (x2 max. damage,
bypass AV) and inflicts 4d4 + 3 x 2 x 2 x 2 damage. The
three x2 multipliers then get combined into a x4 multiplier
(x2 base + 2 for two additional x2 multipliers) giving 4d4 +
3 x 4 damage. Next apply maximum damage and add
bonuses. This results in 19 x 4 damage (4 dice x 4 sides + 3
bonus damage = 19) which is then multiplied, resulting in a
final damage of 76 points of damage (19 x 4 = 76)! Ouch!
If the multipliers were not combined, the damage would
quickly become outrageous (19 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 152 points of
damage).
This could become a lot worse if it was a 24 th level
fighter (3 attacks/round) with an 18 strength, a girolle of
giant strength, and Grand Mastery in his two-handed sword
+5, +10 vs. dragons (3d6 + 11/+16 damage) that decided to
perform a smash attack on a dragon and scored a natural 20
then applied the heroic surge ability (described below). That
would be 3d6 + 16 + 18 + 3 x 3 x 2 totaling 220 points of
damage if the multipliers were combined or 330 points of
damage if the multipliers were not combined. And this guy
still gets two more attacks this round.
Heroic Surge
Only player Characters receive this bonus special ability.
Once per day, a PC may draw upon his inner reserves of
strength in order to improve the results of one roll.
If the roll is an ability check, skill roll, or a saving throw,
a failure may turned into a success.
If preformed on a wrestling roll, the PC may make a
second roll after the first one is made and apply the highest
result.
If it is used on a hit roll, it improves the result by one
step.
1. A critical failure (natural 1) becomes a miss
2. A miss becomes a hit
3. A hit becomes a critical hit (natural 18 – maximum
damage)
4. A natural 18 becomes a natural 19 (maximum
damage bypassing AV)
5. A natural 19 becomes a natural 20 (x2 maximum
damage bypassing AV
6. A natural 20 becomes an improved critical hit (3x
maximum damage bypassing AV)
If applied to a damage roll, the resulting damage is
increased by +1 per damage die. Therefore, a 20d6 Fireball
deals an additional 20 points of damage.
50 of 75

Hit Locations
Determining specific areas struck by an attack is
necessary if you are using piecemeal armor or are using the
wrestling effects rule described below. Roll 1d20 (and
possibly 1d6) on the following table to determine the
location struck by an attack.
d20 Area Hit Effect
Natural 1 Shield (or Foot) Bonus AV
1-2 Foot* Delay
3-4 Lower Leg*
5 Knee* Knockdown
6-7 Upper Leg*
8-9 Waist & Back End Stun or Delay
10 Hand* Disarm
11-12 Lower Arm*
13 Elbow*
14-15 Upper Arm*
16-17 Shoulder*
18-19 Torso
20 Head +1d6 Dmg
*d6 Side
1-3 Left
4-6 Right
This table is designed to allow for bonuses or penalties
to the hit location roll to reflect the combatant‟s relative
vertical positions. A character on high ground or mounted
receives a bonus ranging from +1 to +6. A character on low
ground or supine receives a penalty to their roll from -1 to -
10. A rule of thumb would be to apply a ±1 adjustment for
every six inches of vertical difference.
A natural roll of 1 always strikes the shield if your
opponent has one.
A list of optional hit location effects follows:
Bonus AV: Your opponent‟s shield clearly intercepted
your attack. It will protect him from all damage except for
the severe shock of such a blow. It provides extra Armor
Value to your opponent. The amount of additional
protection depends on what material the shield is
constructed from:
1. Leather +2 AV
2. Wood +4 AV
3. Bronze +5 AV
4. Steel +6 AV
Knockdown: Your opponent must make a saving throw
vs. death ray to avoid falling down. He may use his next
action to get up but his movement rate will be reduced by
half for the next 2d6 rounds.
+1d6 Dmg: You clocked your opponent in the head.
Your blow inflicts an extra d6 of non-lethal physical
damage.
All other effects can be found on pages 80 and 81 of the
Rules Cyclopedia.
Knockdown
If a character takes maximum damage from an attack
(including critical hits), he must make a saving throw versus
death ray or be knocked down.
A character that has been knocked down may get back
up on his next available action. During the round in which
he is getting up, he may only take defensive actions such as
dodging or parrying.
Unless the character is an acrobatic mystic, he will
receive a -2 penalty to all attack rolls and armor class.
Acrobatic mystics are not affected by the prone or supine
positions.
Ranged attacks at medium or long range suffer a -2
penalty to hit prone or supine opponents.
Natural Healing
Option 1: Standard
This is the default healing rule as suggested in the Basic
box and Rules Cyclopedia.
Lethal Damage: For each full day a character spends
resting, which means doing nothing but lying in bed, he
recovers 1d4 hit points.
For each day a character does not spend resting, he only
recovers 1 hit point.
Non-Lethal Damage: Every 2d6x10 minutes, a
character will recover half of the lost non-lethal damage.
Option 2: Enhanced
This variant rule enhances recovery of lethal damage by
taking into account the character‟s Constitution. It also
reduces the amount of non-lethal damage recovered by
introducing a constant rate of recovery.
Lethal Damage: For each full day a character spends
resting, which means doing nothing but lying in bed, he
recovers 1d4 + [Constitution Adjustment] hit points.
For each day a character does not spend resting, he only
recovers 1 + [½ Constitution Adjustment] hit points
(truncate).
Non-Lethal Damage: Every hour, a character will
recover an amount of non-lethal damage equal to his
Constitution adjustment times his level (minimum of level
one).
Option 3: d20ish
This variant rule is an adaptation of the d20 natural
healing rule where natural healing is greatly impacted by
level.
Lethal Damage: With a full night‟s rest (8 hours sleep
or more), the character recovers 1 hit point per HD (not
level).
If you undergo complete bed rest for an entire day and
night, he recovers an amount equal to his HD x his
[Constitution adjustment +1].
Non-Lethal Damage: Every hour, a character will
recover 1 point per HD of non-lethal damage.
51 of 75

For every hour of complete rest that the character
receives, he will recover his HD x Constitution adjustment
in hit points.
Second Wind
If a character can catch a quick one minute rest during
combat, he can regain some of his lost stamina.
If a character can find cover and rest (pass his turn) for
six rounds, he will heal 1d4 + [Constitution Adjustment]
non-lethal damage. Every fourth point of this healing also
applies to any lethal damage the character may have
suffered.
Wrestling Effects
One way to spice up the wrestling rules is by adding
special effects based on the difference between the winner‟s
and loser‟s rolls. Find the difference and look up the result
on the following table:
Won by
Effect
1-5 No effect
6-10 Advantageous Position
11-15 Advantageous Hold
16-20 Grab*
21-25 Disarm*
26-30 Strangle*
30+ Knockout*
The critical hit and miss rules also apply to the table‟s
effects. Effects are explained below:
Advantageous Position: You gain a superior position
over your opponent. You receive a +5 bonus to your WR for
one round.
Advantageous Hold: You have achieved a locking hold
on a specific area of your opponent‟s body. Roll for a hit
location on the above chart. Your opponent receives a
penalty to his WR equal to double your strength modifier
(minimum of 1).
Grab: You manage to get a good grip on a specific item
(be it carried or worn) on your opponent. Roll for a hit
location to find out which item you are holding. You have
additional options available to you on your next attack.
5. Break: you may attempt to destroy any nonmagical
item that you have grabbed. Your
opponent must make a saving throw vs. death ray
to save the item with the following item type
modifiers:
Cloth -5
Glass -1
Leather +1
Metal +6
Necklace -2
Other Jewelery 0
Wood +3
6. Remove: You may attempt to remove the object
from your opponent. Your opponent must make a
saving throw vs. wands to keep the item using the
above item type modifiers. If the item is being
worn, apply a +3 bonus to the saving throw. The
item will be sent 1d10 feet away from the
combatants in a random direction.
7. Take: You may attempt to take the object from
your opponent. Your opponent must make a saving
throw vs. wands to keep the item using the above
item type modifiers. If the item is being worn,
apply a +3 bonus to the saving throw. The item is
now in one of your hands.
The item remains grabbed until your opponent wins a
wrestling check or you either succeed in
breaking/removing/taking the item or give up on it.
Your opponent has the option of surrendering the
grabbed item in exchange for immediately going up one
level on the wrestling chart (e.g. from pinned to takedown,
Grab to Free, etc).
Free
Grab
Takedown
Pin
Disarm: If your opponent is brandishing a weapon or
shield, you may make a disarming attempt on him. Your
opponent must make a dexterity check to avoid losing his
weapon or shield (your choice). If you have the Disarm
combat option, then your opponent‟s roll suffers a +5
penalty.
Strangle: You have a strangle hold on your opponent.
The victim must make a successful saving throw vs. death
ray or become immediately paralyzed and die in 1d6+2 (3-
8) rounds unless rescued. If the victim escapes, he survives
but remains paralyzed for 2d6 (2-12) rounds.
Knockout: You slam your opponent‟s head against a
hard object. Unless your opponent successfully makes a
saving throw vs. death ray, he is rendered unconscious for
1d100 rounds.
Wrestling Maneuvers
The following maneuvers can be executed if its
requirements are met. Maneuvers are executed instead of
improving your position.
Any maneuvers with a asterisk (*) next to their name
may be used by a third-party on a pinned opponent without
needing to make a wrestling check.
Attack*
Prerequisites: Third-party attacker, target pinned
You may attack your opponent with a melee or ranged
weapon. Your target does not receive his Dexterity
adjustment to his armor class. However, if you miss your
target by 3 or less, you hit the person pinning your target
52 of 75

instead and he must make a saving throw vs. death ray to
avoid releasing his opponent.
Damage
Prerequisites: Grab, Strength 9
If you succeed with a wrestling check against your
opponent, you can use any of several techniques to inflict
non-lethal damage to your opponent unless he makes a
successful saving throw vs. death ray. See the Wrestling
Unarmed Combat Mastery Table on page 113 of the Rules
Cyclopedia for the amount of damage inflicted.
Disarm*
Prerequisites: Grab
You must make a wrestling check (with a +5 bonus of
you have the disarm fighter combat option). If you succeed,
your opponent‟s weapon will be sent 1d10 feet away in the
direction of your choice.
Grab*
Prerequisites: Takedown
With a successful wrestling check you may use the Grab
wrestling effect mentioned above. You may immediately
break, remove or take a desired worn or carried object. No
hit location roll is required.
Knockout
Prerequisites: Pin or Takedown and Ex Wrestling
With a successful wrestling check, you slam your
opponent‟s head against a hard object. Unless your
opponent successfully makes a saving throw vs. death ray,
he is rendered unconscious for 1d100 rounds.
Restrain*
Prerequisites: Pin
You may tie up or otherwise retrain your opponent if
you make a successful wrestling check. The restrained
character is considered helpless.
Strangle*
Prerequisites: Takedown
With a successful wrestling check, you put your
opponent into a strangle hold. The victim must make a
successful saving throw vs. death ray each round (with a
cumulative -1 penalty per round) that this hold is maintained
or become immediately paralyzed and die in 1d6+2 (3-8)
rounds unless rescued. If the victim escapes or is let go, he
survives but remains paralyzed for 2d6 (2-12) rounds.
Team-Up*
Prerequisites: None
See Multiple Wrestlers on page 113 of the Rules
Cyclopedia.
Throw
Prerequisites: Grab, Strength 9
If you successfully make a wrestling check, you may
either flip or throw your opponent.
A flip causes 1d6 points of non-lethal damage and
renders your opponent prone while maintaining your hold
on him.
If you throw your opponent, he moves 1d4 + [STR Adj.]
feet in a direction you choose. If he collides with an object,
it inflicts 1d6 points of lethal damage. Your opponent is
now free from your hold.
Touch*
Prerequisites: Pin
You may touch, kiss, or make any other non-damaging
physical contact with your opponent if you successfully
make a wrestling check. Touch spells may only be delivered
by a third-party.
Transfer Hold
Prerequisites: Pin
You may allow someone else to take over your hold if
he can beat your opponent in a wrestling check. If he fails,
your opponent‟s level immediately changes to takedown.
Your opponent may now make a saving throw vs. wands to
free himself from your hold.
DM Procedures
Book Appraisal
D&D: The Book of Wondrous Inventions
The book appraisal special ability is available to all
characters; however, some characters are more proficient at
it than others. Like a thief‟s special abilities, the book
appraisal (BA) ability uses a percentage roll. A roll equal to
or lower than the score indicates success.
Failure indicates that the appraiser misjudged the value
of the tome. If the failed roll was an even number then he
thinks that the price is higher than it really is, if it was an
odd number than he thinks that the book is cheaper than it
actually is. The amount by which he failed the roll indicates
the percentage adjustment from the actual value of the book.
The actual gold piece value of a book is determined by
rolling 1d100 and multiplying the result by 10.
For example: A magic-user with a BA of 36% rolls a 64
(a failure) when appraising a book worth 800 Gp. He
assesses the value of the book at approximately 1,020 to
1,030 Gp (64 – 36 = 28. 28% of 800 = 224. 800 + 224 =
1024).
The actual bargaining process involves the use of the
bargaining skill. Both parties make opposed bargaining skill
checks. The winner is the one who made his check by the
most. A natural roll of 1 automatically wins and gets the
lowest price (if buying) or the highest price (if selling). A
53 of 75

natural roll of 20 automatically fails and winds up insulting
the other party.
Commoner: Common people have a book appraisal
score equal to their Intelligence score. This category
includes anyone who does not qualify for the following
categories:
Merchant: A book merchant has an appraisal score
equal to five times his Intelligence. The merchant category
includes characters with levels in the merchant class and
NPCs who sell books professionally. A merchant will mark
up his perceived value of a book by 30% and will never sell
a book for less than 80% of its perceived value.
Thief: A thief of libraries has an appraisal score equal to
twice his Level. The thief category includes thieves, bards,
and tantrists. Thieves will sell their books for double their
perceived value and will never sell them of less than half its
perceived value.
Wizard: The percentage chance that a wizarolly
character has to successfully appraise a book is equal to his
Intelligence + (Level * 2). Wizards include magic-users,
elves, and foresters. Wizards tend to trade or barter with
their tomes instead of just selling them.
Environments
The Magic Rainbow
The Magic Rainbow is a creation of an ancient
immortal, now extinct and forgotten from the known world.
At the time of the Feadiel ancestors, the old clan knew about
the existence of this creation. The Feadiel family was able to
foresee where the rainbow would land, with the help of
Fillindyl‟s knowledge of the stars. Thus, when the need
appeared, they were able to enter it and flee their homeland.
The Magic Rainbow is the common arch of our skies;
however, very few people know that it is indeed magical
and that it can reach any place a traveler is seeking, whether
real or imaginary, if its secret is learned. The inside of the
rainbow is a dimension by itself, inhabited by powerful
creatures. Some have been placed in the rainbow by its
creator; others discovered the way in and settled there, for a
quiet existence, eventually making visitors pay them a fee to
get back out.
The walls, floors and ceiling are totally impervious to
physical damage and to mortal magic. Similarly, all spells
cast by a mortal creature that are related to transportation do
not function – they automatically fail with a miserable
whining sound. The same limitation applies to magical
items with similar powers. If magic is detected for,
everything seems to radiate powerful magic.
The rainbow appears in very many places, often for just
a few minutes (1d6 rounds), but it never lands twice at the
same spot within less than a century. If it lands in the same
region, it would be at a minimum of 10 miles away from the
previous spot.
An experienced astrologer (at least a 10 th level magicuser
or elf with the science (astrology) general skill) may
predict where the arch will land, by using an elven star map
(such as the one given to the party). The chances of success
are of 1% per level + 1% per science (astrology) skill point.
If the astrologer‟s attempt misses (secret roll) by more than
50%, the prediction will be false. If the secret roll has
succeeded, the astrologer will find a spot within 50 miles of
his/her position where the arch will land, and the exact
moment from the time his computations end to six months
later. The time and location are determined at random the
following way:
Roll: Level + Science (Astrology) %
Time: 2d100 days
(at 1d10 hours counting from sunrise).
Distance: 1d10 + 1d20 miles away.
Direction: 1d8 (N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW).
The calculation time takes 2d10 hours; however, in case
of emergency, the quickest way to obtain an exact result is
by casting a wish spell, provided one is available to the
character. In no way can any spell cast by a mortal being
affect the Magic Rainbow.
Underground
Temperatures in dwarven mines and caverns usually rise
with an increase in depth averaging about 1°F per 100 feet.
Intoxication
With all of the time that adventurers spend in taverns,
someone is bound to get drunk. Rules for this event are
presented here.
First, you must calculate your character‟s alcohol
resistance value. Start by adding the character‟s STR and
CON adjustments. Next, apply the following modifiers:
Gender
Adjustment
Female -1
Male 0
Size
Adjustment
Small -2
Medium 0
Large +2
Physique
Adjustment
Skinny -2
Normal 0
Fat +1
Muscular +2
Winds of Fate
Adjustment
Alcohol Intolerance -1
Alcohol Tolerance +1
54 of 75

Certain situational modifiers can affect this score. A list
of conditional adjustments follows:
Curcumstance
Adjustment
Gulping Drink -2
Active -1
Inactive 0
Eating +1
The character suffers a -2 penalty to Dexterity. If using
the optional personality sheet, he also receives a -2 to
courtesy and patience, -3 to modesty, and +3 to libido.
When a character imbibes, the drink inflicts intoxication
“damage” to him. This damage is reduced by the character‟s
alcohol resistance in much the same manner as armor value
reduces physical damage. A drink will always cause a
minimum of 1 point of intoxication damage. The table
below lists common beverages, their damage values, and the
time necessary to recover from the intoxication level.
Proof Drink Damage
1 - 24 Ale, Beer, Malt Liquors 1d2
25 - 54 Wine, Fortified Wine 1d4
55 - 74 Weak Rum 1d6
75 - 94 Whisky, Liquors 1d8
95 - 114 Bourbon, Cocktails 1d10
115 - 154 Strong Rum 2d6
155 - 174 Vodka, Dwarven Ale 3d6
175 - 200 Ethyl Alcohol 4d6
This damage is totaled and checked against the
following table
Intoxication Recovery
Dmg Level Male Female
0 - 2 Sober 0 0
3 - 5 Slight 1 - 2 1 - 3
6 - 10 Moderate 3 - 6 4 - 7
11 - 15 Heavy 6 - 9 8 - 10
16 - 30 Extreme 10 - 23 11 - 24
31 - 34 Comatose Dmg - 8 Dmg - 7
35+ Deadly - -
Intoxication Levels indicate the specific effects of the
various stages of intoxication.
Slight Intoxication: The character experiences slight
changes in his feelings, usually relaxation and euphoria. He
also experiences decreased alertness.
The character suffers a -2 penalty to all perception
(Wisdom or Alertness) checks. If you are using the optional
personality sheet, he also receives a +1 adjustment to
patience, calm temper, and cheerfulness.
Moderate Intoxication: The character experiences
emotional instability, with exaggerated feelings and
behavior as well as reduced social inhibitions. He also
experiences impaired reaction time and fine motor
coordination.
Heavy Intoxication: He experiences unsteadiness in
standing and walking, and loss of peripheral vision.
The character‟s Dexterity and perception check penalty
increases to -4. He also suffers a -3 penalty to courtesy, -4
to patience, -5 to modesty, and +4 to libido.
Extreme Intoxication: The character has a staggering
gait, slurred speech. Also, pain and other sensory
perceptions are impaired.
The character‟s Dexterity and perception penalties
increase to -6. He also receives a +2 bonus to all saving
throws involving pain (including stun checks from weapon
mastery). He also suffers a -4 penalty to courtesy, -5 to
patience, -6 to modesty, and +5 to libido.
Comatose: At this level of intoxication, the character
must make a saving throw vs. poison every time he takes a
drink. If he fails, he falls unconscious for 3d6 hours. No
further penalties are incurred.
Deadly Intoxication: At this level the character has
reached lethal levels of intoxication. He must make a saving
throw vs. poison every drink to avoid dying. If he succeeds,
he falls unconscious for 3d6 hours.
Recovery states number of hours that must pass for the
character to sober up. If his recovery time is interrupted, he
will be at the intoxication level indicated on the above table.
Some substances (like coffee) can reduce the recovery
time needed by one level if the character fails a saving
throw vs. poison. Sweetwater will immediately reduce the
character‟s intoxication by one level per mug.
Although the character‟s statistics will slowly return to
normal, he will suffer unpleasant after-effects that are
known in the drunks' world as a hangover. After a person
finally gets down to a state of slight intoxication, he rolls
three times on the “Hangover Table” using 1d20 to
55 of 75

determine the hangover‟s effect. Duplicate effects are rerolled.
Blinding Headache: For 1d4+1 hours the character
suffers the following effects: -4 to hit, -3 to armor class,
25% chance of spell failure, -25% to all thieves‟ skills. If
headache was already rolled, then this effect replaces it.
Headache: For 1d4+1 hours. -2 to hit, -1 to armor class,
10% chance of spell failure, -10% to all thieves‟ skills. If
blinding headache has already been rolled, roll again.
Vomiting: 1d12 hours duration. A successful saving
throw versus poison reduces the duration by half. The PC
must make a saving throw versus poison every turn. Failure
means the PC vomits, which takes 1d4+1 rounds. Strenuous
activity (includes combat and Spell-casting) will also
require a constitution check to avoid being ill.
Nausea: 1d12 hours duration. A successful saving throw
versus poison reduces the duration by half. The PC feels like
vomiting. The PC has difficulty concentrating and therefore
has a 5% chance of arcane spell failure for every hour of
nausea. Furthermore, he suffers a -2 to strength and
dexterity for the duration of nausea.
"The Squats": 1d20 hours duration. A successful saving
throw versus poison reduces the duration by half. The PC
must make a saving throw versus poison every turn. Failure
means PC will defecate within 1d4 rounds. The PC must
find a suitable place and remove armor, clothing, etc. within
that time or soil them selves (YECH!).
Trembling: For 1d4-1 hours. -1 to hit, -2 to dexterity.
Loss of Appetite: Character will not eat. Also, character
has dry mouth thus being very thirsty.
Ability Score Penalty: The character temporarily loses
one or more ability score points from both dexterity and
constitution or from both intelligence and wisdom. Roll 1d6
once on the “Ability Damage” table and on the “Ability
Damage Duration” table to determine the exact effect.
Elven Sweet Water
Cost: 10 Gp per flask; 1,000 Gp per barrel
Elven Sweet Water is wonderful tasting semi-magical
drink that is primarily used to instantly purge the imbiber of
all toxins within his system, including the effects of alcohol,
poisons and potions. It can also be added to other liquids in
order to change them to pure, drinkable water. It will
neutralize poison and ruin magical potions (no saving
throw). The contents of a single flask will change up to
100,000 cubic feet of polluted, salt, or alkaline water to
fresh water. It will turn up to 1,000 cubic feet of acid into
pure water. The effects of sweet water are permanent. One
barrel contains 100 flasks of sweet water.
Gnomish Sweet Water
Cost: 1 Gp per mug; 50 Gp per barrel.
Gnomish Sweet Water is a rather foul tasting brew. Its
creation was blamed on the elves. It is designed to eliminate
the suffering from hangovers. When a character drinks
down the entire mug, he must make an immediate saving
throw versus poison. Success indicates that he manages to
keep it down and he reduces his intoxication by two levels
and removes any hangover effects. If he fails his saving
throw, he cannot hold it down and vomits it all up along
with anything else in his system. He loses all intoxication
levels and hangover effects. If this is used as a chaser to an
ingested poison, the poison is negated as soon as he vomits.
Note that a character can always choose to fail a saving
throw. One barrel contains 50 mugs of sweet water.
Invisibility to Mortals
The Invisibility to mortals special ability was introduced
in PC1, Tall Tales of the Wee Folk. Issues have cropped up
during play that needed to be addressed and clarified.
Invisibility to mortals is not subject to many methods of
detecting invisible creatures. No spell short of truesight will
detect to a creature under this effect.

The Radiance and Mutation
The Radiance is basically magically altered radiation. Its
characteristic orange color makes it highly visually
distinctive; therefore, a Radiance user will automatically
know when the Radiance is being used by a creature or
another Radiance-user.
Rad Points
Any time a character sustains Radiance damage, he must
keep a separate total of rad points equal to the total amount
of Radiance damage dealt to him. Rad points fade at a rate
of 1 + CON Adj. per hour.
Cure spells reduce the damage taken by these attacks but
not this total. 1d6 turns after initial exposure, the character
feels sick as the radiation works its way through his system.
This sickness imposes a -2 penalty to attack rolls and armor
class until his radiation total drops to 0.
Mutation Threshold
The mutation threshold represents how much resistance
a character has to the mutating effects of radiance damage.
A character‟s mutation threshold is equal to his Constitution
score.
Every time a character‟s Rad points raise or lower past
any multiple of his mutation threshold, the character must
make a successful saving throw versus Death Ray to avoid
mutating. If he fails then he must roll on the mutation tables
found in any edition of the Gamma World rules. (I
recommend using first or second edition rules since they
require the least amount of adaptation to D&D since they
were based off of the AD&D first edition rules.)
A character can carry no more than 1 + CON Adj.
beneficial mutations. After that, only defects can be gained.

This mutation allows the character to automatically
blend into any background. Her body coloration matches the
colors of any background that is within 5 feet. Be aware that
her clothes or other belongings do not change color. Her
skin continuously change as the as the mutant moves. The
mutant can decide to make her skin and single color not
related to her background, or can choose to look like her
normal self. When chameleon power is activated, the
character gains a Hide in Shadows ability at 50% (or +50%
if she already has the hide in shadows ability). This version
of Hide in Shadows can be used in any environment, not
just in shadowy areas.
The amount of clothing and equipment the mutant is
wearing affects her Hide in Shadows percentage.
1. 0-10% Exposed skin -50%
2. 11-30% Exposed skin -40%
3. 31-50% Exposed skin -30%

Cryokinesis
Type: Mental Mutation
Range: 80 feet
Duration: Concentration, up to 10 rounds
Effect: 1 creature or object
This is the ability to cause living matter, water, or
anything else that will freeze, to suffer cold damage and
possibly freeze solid (DM‟s discretion). On the first round,
1d6 damage is inflicted, and through undisturbed
concentration, up to 10d6 cold damage may be inflicted on
the 10 th round. The range of this mutation is 80 feet.
Dual Brain
Type: Physical Mutation
Range: Self
Duration: Constant
Effect: Self
Any mutant with this power has two brains (not
necessarily two heads), both of which function normally.
The new brain has exclusive access to 1d3 additional mental
mutations. The original brain has exclusive access to any
mental mutations that it had before gaining this mutation.
A dual brain allows for second saving throw against any
mind-affecting abilities or spells. The mutant then selects
the most advantageous result. Any damage inflicted by a
mental attack is immediately reduced by half before saving
throws are applied.
58 of 75

Both brains begin with the same Intelligence, Wisdom
and Charisma scores. If these scores change later on, they
are advanced separately. Both brains act independently in
the same round.
Force Field Generation
Type: Mental Mutation
Range: Self
Duration: One hour
Effect: Self
This mutation allows the mutant with the ability to
create an invisible wall of energy through which protects
him from physical danger. This includes energy attacks and
radiation.
The field forms around the body of the mutant six inches
from the skin and can absorb up to 30 points of damage
before failing. The force field requires no concentration to
maintain once it is established and will last up to one hour
(unless driven down by damage) before it dissipates. Only
one such force field may be generated by the mutant in a 24
hour period. Like with armor, force fields cannot be layered.
Genius Capability

Duration: Constant
Effect: Self
Roll 1d6 to determine the specific type of genius that the
character is:
1-2 Military Genius
3-4 Scientific Genius

weapon or natural weapon. He also inflicts one additional
die of damage with the weapon. In addition, he gains a +1
bonus to the Artillery and Military Tactics general skill.
A scientific genius gains a +1 bonus to the Shipbuilding
general skill and any science skill. By spending one round
to aim a ranged weapon, he may inflict an additional 4
points of damage if he successfully hits his target.
An economic genius can earn triple profit on anything he
personally tries to sell. He also receives a +3 bonus to the
Bargaining general skill as well as a +3 (or +15%) to any
rolls to determine profit or income.
Heat Generation
Type: Physical Mutation
Range: 50 feet
Duration: Instantaneous
Effect: 1 creature or object
This allows the mutant to cast beams of heat from his
hands (paws, tentacles, etc.) that do 4d6 of searing heat
damage. The beams have a maximum range of 50 feet and
may be used once every three rounds.

Heightened Sense
Type: Physical Mutation
Range: Self
Duration: Constant
Effect: Self
59 of 75

Hearing: The mutant can hear things twice as far away
with twice as much sensitivity. By concentrating, he can
hear on frequencies normally inaudible to his kind, such as
ultrasonic or subsonic.
Smell: The mutant can identify and distinguish
individuals by small. He can track creatures up to a mile
away by smell alone. He can detect faint traces of materials
or gas.
Taste: The mutant can identify poisons or chemicals
residues by tasting merely a tiny drop. He does not suffer
the effects of consuming this extremely small amount. He
can determine the individual components of any food, drink,
or potion.
Touch: The mutant‟s sense of touch becomes fine
enough to distinguish slight changes in texture, moisture,
temperature, residues, etc. All tactile sensations are
enhanced. A mutant with this power may make a Wisdom
check to read written text merely by gliding her hand over
the surface of a page. Rolls to Open Locks, Remove Traps,
Climb Walls, Move Silently, and Pick Pockets receive a
+15% bonus. All modifiers for intercourse are doubled.
Vision: The mutant can make his vision telescopic or
microscopic, allowing for the perception of twice as much
detail at distances or up close. When determining range
penalties, the weapon is treated as if it had double its ranges.
Increased Metabolism
Type: Physical Defect
Range: Self
Duration: Constant
Effect: Self
This defect forces the mutant to spend great amounts of
time feeding. His nutritional intake requirements are
doubled every time this defect is gained. For every meal
(Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner) that he does not meet his
required intake, he loses one point of constitution. He dies
of starvation if his Constitution drops to zero. These points
are restored once he resumes his required rate of
consumption.
Intuition
Type: Mental Mutation
Range: Self
Duration: Constant
Effect: Self
This allows the mutant to be subconsciously aware of
what any opponent intends to do. This results in a +1 with
anything that requires a roll to hit and an additional 3 points
of damage per damage die. This mutation cannot be used
while other mental powers are being used.
Light Wave Manipulation
Type: Mental Mutation
Range: 0
Duration: Concentration or Constant
Effect: Up to a 30‟ radius
This mutation allows the mutant to create any of three
light-based effects:
Invisibility: By concentrating on bending light around
him, the mutant may become invisible. This lasts as long as
the mutant concentrates. He may not make any aggressive
or complex actions or perform more than simple mental
tasks. Movement is limited to ten feet per round in combat.
Moving faster creates a distortion in the effect. For every
additional ten feet per round moved, the observer has a 1 in
6 chance of noticing the movement. For example, if the
mutant decided to move his maximum speed of 40‟ pre
round, anyone in visual range will have a 3 in 6 chance of
seeing the movement and targeting the mutant with an
attack. Any attacks on an invisible person receive a -4
penalty to hit.
Darkness: By lowering the light in his area to nothing,
the mutant can create a darkness effect identical to the
darkness spell, creating a circle of darkness 30‟ in diameter.
It will block all sight except infravision. This effect requires
far less concentration then invisibility does. After the mutant
spends a round to create the darkness field, he may maintain
it without affecting the actions he may perform in a round.
The field may be kept up until the mutant is damaged. If
damaged, the mutant must make a saving throw versus
spells or lose his concentration and drop the darkness field.
Light Deflection: The mutant gains the constant effect of
the weapon mastery Disarm effect against any light-based
attacks. In addition to any attacks, the mutant may attempt
to deflect a number of light-based attacks (such as lasers and
lightsabers) indicated in one round. The number of
deflections allowed in one round is based on level: 1 attack
at levels 1-12, 2 attacks at levels 13-24, and 3 attacks at
levels 25-36. To deflect each attack, the character must
make a saving throw versus death ray.
Mental Control Over Physical State
Type: Mental Mutation
Range: Self
Duration: 24 Hours
Effect: Self
This is the ability to unconsciously disregard things like
pain warnings and override problems such as blood loss or
fatigue for up to one full day. This control enables the
mutant to heal wounds (recover lost hit points) four times as
fast as normal. In situations of overwhelming danger (DM‟s
decision), the mutant will have double his normal Strength,
Dexterity, and speed for 5d10 rounds. This mutation may be
used only once per week.
Mental Defencelessness
Type: Mental Defect
Range: Self
Duration: Constant
Effect: Self
The mutant suffers a permanent -3 to all saving throws
against mind-effecting spells or abilities.
60 of 75

No Resistance to Bacteria
Type: Physical Defect
Range: Self
Duration: Constant
Effect: Self
The mutant suffers a -6 penalty to all saving throws
versus mundane or magical diseases. This penalty is
cumulative if this defect is gained multiple times.
No Resistance to Poison
Type: Physical Defect
Range: Self
Duration: Constant
Effect: Self
The mutant suffers a -6 penalty to all saving throws
versus mundane or magical poisons. This penalty is
cumulative if this defect is gained multiple times.
Photosynthetic Skin
Type: Physical Mutation
Range: Self
Duration: Constant
Effect: Self
This allows the mutant to produce its own food in
sunlight or its equivalent if he spends at least 3 hours in
bright sunlight (6 hours in dim sunlight). He still needs to
drink normally.
Such mutants may also heal lost hit points four times as
fast as normal of they spend at least 8 hours basking in the
sun.
Mutants with photosynthetic skin suffer one extra point
per die of damage from light-based attacks.
The amount of clothing the mutant is wearing affects the
amount of time spent in photosynthesis.
1. 0-10% Exposed skin x5
2. 11-30% Exposed skin x4
3. 31-50% Exposed skin x3
4. 51-70% Exposed skin x2
5. 71-90% Exposed skin x1
6. 91-100% Exposed skin x½
Pyrokinesis
Type: Mental Mutation
Range: 80 feet
Duration: Concentration, up to 10 rounds
Effect: 1 creature or object
This is the ability to cause living matter or anything that
is reasonable flammable, such as wood or plastic, to suffer
heat damage and eventually burst into flame. On the first
round, 1d6 damage is inflicted, and through undisturbed
concentration, up to 10d6 damage may be inflicted on the
10 th round. The DM determines when and if a fire starts.
The range of this mutation is 80 feet.
Regeneration
Type: Physical Mutation
Range: Self
Duration: Constant
Effect: Self
This power allows the mutant to heal a number of hit
points per day equal to his Hit Dice multiplied by his
Constitution adjustment +1. This replaces the normal
healing rate. The minimum rate of regeneration is 2 Hp per
day.
For example, a 12 th level Fighter (9 HD) with a 16
Constitution (+2 adjustment) will naturally heal 9 x (2 + 1)
= 27 Hp per day.
Shapechange
Type: Physical Mutation
Range: Self
Duration: At will
Effect: Self
This mutation functions like the Polymorph Self spell,
except that the transformation takes two rounds to complete
and the mutant‟s clothing and equipment does not change
shape with him. The mutant may use this ability at will.
Skin Structure Change
Type: Physical Defect
Range: Self
Duration: Constant
Effect: Self
As the name implies, the skin of the mutant changes for
the worse. Suggestions:
1. Thin Skin: The mutant suffers 1 additional point of
damage per damage die he takes.
2. Water Dependant Skin: The mutant takes 1 point of
damage for every three hours he is out of the water
and 1d4+1 if he is also in hot and dry conditions.
He only needs a splash of water or a sponge bath
once every three hours to avoid this effect.
3. Water Soluble Skin: Contact with water causes 1
point of damage pre round. He takes 1d4+1 points
of damage per round if fully immersed.
4. Phosphorescent Skin: The mutant glows in the dark
as if he had Faerie Fire permanently cast upon
him.
5. Light Sensitive Skin: The mutant‟s skin burns for
1d4 points of damage per turn when exposed to
bright light.
Telekinesis
Type: Mental Mutation
Range: 50 feet
Duration: Concentration, up to 5 rounds
Effect: 1 creature or object
This enables the mutant to lift objects, other than the
mutant himself, into the air and move them about. The
mutant can only move as much weight as he could normally
61 of 75

lift and must strain as though he were actually carrying the
object of his telekinesis.
Only objects within 50 feet may be thus lifted, and the
mutant may only keep them aloft for 5 rounds after which
he must rest for another 5 rounds before again using this
power.
When telekinesis is used on creatures, or items held by a
creature, the victim is allowed a saving throw versus
paralysis to negate the effect.
Telekinetic Flight
Type: Mental Mutation
Range: Self
Duration: At will
Effect: Self
Mutants with ability can fly through the air at up to 180‟
(60‟), carrying only as much as he could normally carry.
Roll 1d6 to determine the flight speed of this mutation:

Telepathy
Type: Mental Mutation
Range: 30 feet
Duration: Concentration
Effect: Up to [INT Adj.] +1 living creatures
This is the power to read another creature‟s thoughts
and/or emotions and send your own in return. This power
transcends language and works on all beings up to 30 feet
away. You can concentrate on a maximum number of
people equal to your Intelligence adjustment plus one.
Teleportation
Type: Mental Mutation
Range: Self
Duration: Instantaneous
Effect: Teleport up to 150 miles away
The mental transference of the mutant‟s physical self to
another place is called teleportation, and works up to the
range of 50 miles. The mutant may only teleport himself,
not others. If he has not spent at least 8 hours memorizing
his destination, he stands a 25% chance of sustaining 10d6
points of damage upon arrival.
The mutant may try to push his maximum range. Every
additional mile increases the chance of sustaining damage
by 1% (The base chance of a studied destination is 0%).
Total Healing
Type: Mental Mutation
Range: Self
Duration: Instantaneous
Effect: Self
This allows the mutant to heal all its own lost hit points,
once pre day but no more than four times a week. This
ability heals only damage. It does not remove a curse,
neutralize a poison, cure a disease, cure blindness, remove
paralysis, or remove Feeblemind effects.
Ultravision
Type: Physical Mutation
Range: Self
Duration: At will
Effect: Line of sight
This allows the mutant to see the ultraviolet end of the
light spectrum. In addition to UV emissions he will be able
to see such things as: radiation, energy cells, mental
mutations that affect the physical environment, and the
electrical workings of machines.
This power grants a +2 (or +10%) bonus to all skill
checks to build or repair electronic equipment.
Weight Decrease
Type: Physical Defect
Range: Self
Duration: Constant
Effect: Self
This weakens the mutant so that his strength, weight and
encumbrance limit is decreased by one quarter.

Sexual Rules
The following rules provide more (a-hem) adult aspects
to the D&D game.
Characteristics
Sexual characteristics present a method of determining
how different characters measure up to each other
physically.
Breast Size: Roll 1d20 plus Constitution, Charisma and
Physique adjustments and consult the following table.
Cup Size Table
Roll Cup Size Bust
up to -3 AA -1"
-2 to 1 A Same
2-4 B +1"
5-14 C +2"
15-17 D +3"
18-19 DD +4"
20 E +5"
21 F +6"
22 FF +7"
23 G +8"
24 GG +9"
25 H +10"
26 HH +11"
27+ J +12"
The following instructions explain how to find your cup
size in real life:
Step 1: Measure in inches directly under the bust. The
tape should be tight around your body and level across your
back. If the number is even add 4", if odd add 5". This is
your bra size.
Step 2: Gently measure around the fullest part of the
bust making sure the tape is level across the back. The
difference between your bra size and your full bust
measurement is your cup size.
Example: Under bust measurement is 31" plus 5" = 36
bra size. Over bust measurement is 38"; therefore 38” – 36”
= +2". According to the Cup Size Table, this would be a C
cup.
Note: This chart only works for Fantasie, Panache and
Silhouette bras in real life.
First, take the character‟s height and convert feet directly
to inches to determine his base length. Thus, a 6‟ 3” tall man
would have a base length of 6 ¼” (6‟ = 6” and 3” = 3/12” =
1/4”).
Next, you roll 1d20 modified by the character‟s
Constitution, Charisma and Physique adjustments and
consult the following table:
Penal Length Modifier
Roll Modifier Example (M) Size
up to -3 -50% Hung like a halfling S
-2 to -1 -45% S
0 -40% Hung lika a dwarf M
1 -35% M
2 -30% M
3 -25% M
4 -20% M
5 -15% M
6-7 -10% Below Average M
8-12 0% Nothing special M
13-15 +10% Above Average M
16-17 +20% M
18 +30% Hung like a bugbear L
19 +40% Hung like an ogre L
20 +50% Hung lika a bear L
21 +60% Hung like a big ogre L
22 +70% L
23-24 +80% L
25-26 +90% L
27+ +100% Hung like a hill giant L
Example: A character with a base length of 6 ¼“ and a
Constitution of 16 rolls a 13 on 1d20. The total is 15 (13 +
2). Consulting the above table, he gets a +50% bonus to his
base length. His final penis length is 9 3/8” (6.25 * 1.5
rounded) long.
Penis Width: If you want to get into this kind of detail,
you can also specify the width of his manhood. Roll 1d6 on
the following table:
Penis Width
Roll Description
Sexcraft
1-2 Thin -1
3-4 Average 0
5-6 Thick +1
Physique: This is a concept that appears in some of the
Creature Crucibles. A generic version intended for the
standard races is presented here. Roll 1d8 and consult the
following table:
Penis Length: Some guys want to see how they
“measure up.” To determine this, follow these simple steps.
63 of 75

Physique Table
Roll Male Female Adj.
1 Skinny Skinny -1
2-6 Normal Normal 0
7 Fat Voluptuous +1
8 Muscular Fat +2
Vaginal Capacity: First, take the character‟s height and
convert feet directly to inches to determine her vaginal
capacity (VC). Thus a 5‟ 6” tall woman would have a
vaginal capacity of 5 ½” (5‟ = 5” and 6” = 6/12” = 1/2”).
Next, multiply your VC by the following multipliers:
Sample Vaginal Capacity
Mult VC Penalty Dmg
1/8 2/3 -6 0
1/4 1 3/8 -4 0
1/2 2 3/4 -2 0
1 5 1/2 0 0
2 11 -2 1/Rd
3 16 1/2 -4 2/Rd
4 22 -6 3/Rd
For every multiple of her VC that the penetrating penis
is larger, she takes 1 point of non-lethal damage and
receives a +2 bonus to her Sexcraft checks while he suffers
a -2 penalty to his Sexcraft checks.
If the penetrating penis of at least 3 times her VC is fully
inserted into her, after the first round, she must make a
successful saving throw vs. death ray to avoid taking lethal
damage.
If a penis is only partially inserted (no further than half
way) into her, then reduce the damage inflicted by one
point.
If she is a virgin, she takes one additional point of nonlethal
damage per round unless his penis size is ½ of her VC
or smaller (in this case, her virginity will still be intact due
to little or no impact on the hymen).
For every multiple of her VC that the penetrating penis
is smaller, they both suffer a -2 penalty to their respective
sexcraft checks.
Intercourse
Intercourse follows rules similar to wrestling. There are
five states of arousal that participants can achieve.
Unaroused
Aroused
Peaked
Orgasm
Instead of making opposed wrestling checks, they make
individual Sexcraft rolls against each other. A successful
check brings their partner to the next level.
Characters may begin at an unaroused or aroused state at
their player‟s discretion.
Each check represents 1 round if in combat or 1 to 5
minutes if in non-combat time.
Modifiers: The following conditional modifiers apply to
Sexcraft checks:
For Males:
7. His penis is ¼ her VC -4
8. He is raping her -4
9. She is a virgin -4
10. His penis is ½ her VC -2
11. Physique is Fat -2
12. Damage inflicted on her -1/pt
13. His penis is Thin -1
14. His penis is Thick +1
15. Physique is Muscular +2
16. His penis is 2x her VC +2
17. His penis is 3x her VC +4
18. His penis is 4x her VC +6
19. Has Heightened Touch x2
For Females:
20. Her VC is 8x his penis length -6
21. Her VC is 4x his penis length -4
22. Her VC is 2x his penis length -2
23. Physique is Fat -2
24. She is raping him -2
25. Damage inflicted on him -1/pt
26. He is a virgin +2
27. Physique is Beautiful +2
28. Physique is Voluptuous +2
29. Her VC is ½ his penis length +2
30. Physique is Ravishing +4
31. Her VC is ¼ his penis length +4
32. Has Heightened Touch x2
Aroused: The character is physically ready for sex. If
the character is male, he is erect and ready to penetrate; if
female, this means her nipples and clitorises are hardening
and her vagina is lubricating. This state lasts for 2d6
minutes.
Peaked: The character is right on the edge of orgasm.
He or she is at a heightened state of arousal, and requires
only one more push to come. A character that is peaked
cannot make any non-sexually based skill checks. This state
lasts for 1d4 minutes.
Orgasm: The character climaxes. This state lasts for 1
round.
Males ejaculate and after a round, drop down to an
unaroused state.
Females are sent into an orgasm which is usually
characterized by a heightened vocal display. She now makes
a Constitution check. Success brings her to a peaked state
while failure takes her to an aroused state.
64 of 75

If the female drops to peaked and brought back to
orgasm a second time, she must make a successful saving
throw vs. death ray to avoid entering a state of sexual
delirium. She receives a cumulative -1 penalty to the roll for
each consecutive time she drops to a peaked state and again
orgasms. This saving throw can be voluntarily failed.
Sexual Delirium: Only females can achieve this state of
arousal. Only magical effects can bring a male into this
state. A character who reaches this stage is considered
helpless. The only action she is capable of is mindless
fucking and sucking. She is also highly suggestible until she
gets 8 hours of complete rest.
Delaying Orgasm: If one partner tries to resist the
other‟s attempt to bring them to orgasm, they must make
opposed Sexcraft checks. The winner is the one that made
his check by the largest amount. A roll of a natural one
automatically wins and a natural 20 automatically loses.
Duration: Male characters can have a number of
orgasms equal to their Constitution adjustment + 1. In order
to exceed that, he must successfully make a Constitution or
Sexcraft roll; however, each successful check adds a
cumulative +1 penalty to the next roll.
After each orgasm, a male goes back to being unaroused
and must start from scratch all over again.
Females on the other hand have no limit to how many
orgasms they can achieve. Females can sustain intercourse
for a number of hours equal to her Constitution adjustment
+1. For each half hour after, she must successfully make a
Constitution or Sexcraft check with a cumulative +1 penalty
for each successful check made.
After having an orgasm, a female is still aroused (or
peaked if she makes a successful Constitution check).
Both males and females take one point of non-lethal
damage for each additional hour of continual intercourse
after the first. They also take one point of non-lethal damage
for each orgasm they have.
Pregnancy
Spread throughout several books are most of the rules
dealing with characters having offspring. These rules mainly
deal with interracial conception. Most of the rules printed
here are from those books. However, some of these rules are
new. They are meant to fill in the holes in these scattered
rules.
The first thing to do is determine the days that the
female is fertile. A human female has a fertility window of
two days a month. Roll 3d10-2 or 1d30 (re-rolling 29-30) to
determine the first day of fertility (re-rolling on a result of
29-30). This fertility period is modified by the female‟s
race. This is done using the following guidelines:
Fertility Period
Lifespan Fertility
Race (Years) Period
Troll 45 4 Days per month
Ogre 50 4 Days per month
Orc 65 3 Days per month
Human 100 2 Days per month
Halfling 200 1 Day per month
Dwarf 400 1 Day per 2 months
Elf 800 1 Day per 4 months
If the female is inseminated during her fertility period,
she has a good chance of becoming pregnant. The chance is
70% minus 5% per hit die of difference between the two
races down to a minimum of 5%. The hit dice gained by
experience levels do not count here.
For example, the chance of pregnancy between a female
human (1 HD) and a male human (1 HD) is 70%. The
chance of pregnancy between a human female (1 HD) and a
male ogre (4 HD) is 55% (70% – 15% for a 3 HD
difference).
As a guideline, unless stated otherwise, the child has an
equal chance of being male or female.
Use common sense as to when two races can engender
progeny. If either participant is smaller than half the other‟s
size (approximately) then intercourse is probably not
possible.
Assume that the child‟s race is that of the mother unless
one of the parents race is mentioned below:
Elves
The half-elf is a figure of legend throughout the known
world. These fabled creatures are thought to have all the
benefits of both elf and man, with none of the problems.
These legends are fueled by the feats of some heroes
who seem to have a man‟s ability with weaponry or magic,
yet look like elves, and with some elves who look more like
men, yet can mix magic with the aplomb of the elf.
Occasionally, there are elf-human matings. Apparently
the two races are sufficiently similar to be interfertile.
However, the products of such unions are neither elves nor
men, though their outward appearances sometimes fool
watchers.
As far as can be told, the elven traits are inherited
through the female line. The product of a union between a
human female and a male elf is always human. Moreover,
the male children are always stillborn.
When a female elf mates with a male human, the male
children are always elves and the female children are always
human.

Mother's Father's Child's Child's
Race Race Sex Race
Human Elf Male Stillborn
Female Human
Elf Human Male Elf
Female Human
Of course, all of these female “human” children have the
potential for growing up to bear elf children of either sex
(50% chance of an elf or human).
Fauns & Dryads
Dryads, as well as hamadryads, are able to mate with
humans, elves, fairies, and fauns (satyrs); the offspring with
humans or elves is invariably a dryad, while those of fauns
or fairies have equal chances of being of either parent‟s
race.
A dryad child stays with her mother for her first 12
years, until maturity is reached. The dryad may then find her
own tree, and lead an existence much like that of a
hamadryad. Sometimes a dryad will wander unattached for a
time, perhaps as an adventurer.
All fauns are male. They reproduce by mating with other
human-like races, particularly dryads. The offspring of
dryads and fauns are fauns half the time, dryads the other
half. The offspring of other faunish unions are always of the
father‟s race – that is, fauns.
Humanoids
Humanoids consist of Bugbears, Gnolls, Goblins,
Hobgoblins, Kobolds, Orcs, Ogres, Trolls, and their ilk.
These races can not conceive with elves and halflings.
Whenever dealing with humanoids, first find out what
the two parents were, and roll 1d6.
Roll
Race
1-2 Mother's Race
3-4 Demi-race
5-6 Father's Race
Demi-race individuals may have none, some, or all of
their parents‟ features and abilities, depending on a series of
dice rolls. Go to the “Orcs of Thar” player‟s guide and
follow the procedure to roll up a new character. Each time a
feature or ability has a game effect, roll 1d6.
Roll
Feature belongs to…
1-2 Mother's Race
3 Average (Mother's Dominance)
4 Average (Father's Dominance)
5-6 Father's Race
A tricky part of demi-races is that they are not always
recognizable from their physical appearances. If the player
rolls a 1-2 for both size and appearance, the character then
looks entirely like his mother.
Immortals
One thing Immortals do not do like a human is raise
families. Immortals can conceive children either by mortal
or immortal partners, but their children are always mortal.
An immortal with a mortal child is faced with the choice of
keeping and protecting the child forever, as though it were a
pet, or abandoning it to a surrogate parent in the mortal
world in the hopes that the child will someday grow up to
achieve immortality on its own. Most immortals prefer not
to face this question at all and choose not to have children.
The offspring of an immortal has higher than normal
ability scores; players should roll one ability score on 6d6
and the others on 4d6, assigning them to whichever ability
scores they wished. Starting experience level for such
exceptional characters would be rolled on 1d6+4. Each
character would also have one special power, such as wings
to allow constant flight or a permanent protection from
normal missiles spell.
Symptoms of Pregnancy: Symptoms are broken up into
three trimesters. Each trimester lasts for one-third of the
pregnancy. During the next 6 months after delivery, she will
display postpartum symptoms.
First Trimester: Her senses of taste and smell increase,
granting a +1 bonus to any checks involving those senses.
This also contributes to morning sickness. She must make a
successful Constitution check (with a -1 penalty if exposed
to strong unpleasant smells) each day, or become physically
ill for 1d3 hours.
Aversions and cravings are also experienced in this
trimester. Aversions may occur to foods that were
previously favorite menu items. Cravings may range from
stereotypical pickles and ice cream to the unusual (like dirt).
Second Trimester: Weight gain begins to show, hair
becomes thicker and more lustrous, and breasts enlarge (by
one cup size) and become more sensitive (+1 to sexcraft
checks made to her) due to hormonal changes.
Third Trimester: Her balance is off, and she may find
her stomach is getting in the way of even the most ordinary
66 of 75

tasks. Backaches, swollen feet, general lethargy, exhaustion,
and the need to urinate every 15 minutes contribute to the
feelings of discomfort. She suffers from a -1 penalty to all
skill checks and saving throws during this time.
Insomnia is common because she cannot find any way to
get comfortable in any position and the baby tends to kick
when she stop moving. Every night, she must make a
successful saving throw vs. death ray (applying her wisdom
adjust to the roll) in order to have a good night‟s sleep.
As her due date approaches, she finds new reserves of
energy as she goes into her “nesting” phase. She goes to
great lengths to create a baby-friendly environment in her
home.
Postpartum: During this phase, the weight gained during
pregnancy drops off slowly. It is said that breast feeding is
said to help with this problem.
Lactation happens during this phase. Full, painful,
swollen, leaky breasts can be a cause of discomfort or
embarrassment even while being functional.
Due to hormonal fluctuations, a loss of self esteem,
severe depression, anxiety and intense worries about the
baby can occur.

Sex Tricks
This is an optional component of the standard sexual
rules. Characters with points in the sexcraft general skill
gain access to some specialized techniques. These sexual
tricks further demonstrate the characters study and practice
in this subject.
A character can select a number of tricks equal to his
Intelligence adjustment plus any additional skill points
invested in sexcraft past the fires.

cue. Persons of a truly sadistic nature are not
allowed to take this trick. You receive a +2 bonus
to sexcraft checks when you are in “top” in a
bondage situation.
3. Foreplay: This is the ability to arouse and satisfy a
partner prior to intercourse. It covers everything
between kissing and penetration, including the
varieties of oral sex. You receive a +2 bonus to
sexcraft checks to get your partner aroused or
peaked.
4. Intercourse, Anal: This is the ability to satisfy
one‟s partner and oneself in the complete act of
anal sexual intercourse. You receive a +2 bonus to
all sexcraft checks when performing anal

7. Masseuse: This is the ability to provide a pleasing,
sensual massage. Depending on the individual, it
may or may not include any actual sexual contact.
You receive a +2 bonus on all checks when giving
a sensual message.
8. Masturbation: You are proficient at pleasuring
yourself, either manually or with the aid of an item.

dance skill checks equal to your charisma
adjustment. With a successful sexcraft check, you
can make your audience aroused.
11. Submission: You are skilled at being the
submissive partner in a bondage relationship, the
“bottom.” As the focus of the relationship, the
“bottom” is actually the one in control, with all of
the attention of the “top” concentrated on her and

67 of 75

your partner a +2 bonus to sexcraft checks when
you are the “bottom” in a bondage situation.
12. Undressing: You can get out of your clothes

in a hurry. You gain a +2 bonus to sexcraft checks
to arouse your partner.

A jettison consists of a series of small catapults loaded
with stones, trash, debris, iron spikes, and garbage, and used
as an anti-personnel weapon to clear the enemy‟s decks.
Any type of catapult can be converted into a jettison of the
69 of 75

same size by loading it with small rocks instead of a single
stone. A jettison however cannot be converted into a
catapult.
Jettisons are mounted in place and cannot be moved.
When fired, they hit a spot on the ship and may affect every
target within the weapon‟s radius (make a separate attack
for every potential target). Saving throws to avoid missile
fire also be used to affect jettison fire, if applicable.
Many ships use catapults as temporary jettisons when
they need to. Often jettisons are mounted at the rear of ships
to deter pursuers.
A jettison can be fired at an empty area of space. This
automatically sets up a field of debris in that space.

Animal (Very Rare)
Terrain: Underneath Glantri City
Sometimes, when an unfortunate creature is directly
exposed to the Nucleus of the Spheres, it becomes horribly
mutated. This mutation takes many forms, but some occur
more consistently than others.
The mutant‟s size and muscles increase in a manner that
is disproportionate to its original anatomy. If the creature
has fur, half of it has fallen out. Its surface veins bulge and
glow with an eerie orange energy. This kind of mutation
drive the creature insane unless it makes a successful saving
throw vs. spells.
A type I radiance mutant gains nourishment by
absorbing energy form the surrounding area. This effect
decreases the effectiveness of radiance spells and items by
20% per mutant in within 20 feet of the affected item or
caster.
The mutant also emits a field of radiance energy from its
body, inflicting [HD/2]d6 points of radiance damage to
anyone within 5 feet of the mutant.
When the mutant dies (reaches –CON hit points) it
explodes. This explosion releases all of its stored radiance
energy, inflicting [HD/2]d6 radiance damage.
If the mutant is successfully attacked by any form of
energy (cold, electricity, fire, force, heat, light – not acid,
ice, or kinetic) the mutant must make a saving throw of the
appropriate type. If the save is successful, the mutant adds
the damage to its current hit points. These additional hit
points can exceed its maximum hit points. However, any hit
points above its maximum bleeds away at the rate of one
point per round. These extra hit points also power its final
ability… Its eye beams. By burning off one extra hit point,
it may make a ranged attack inflicting 3d6 radiance damage.
Standard mutation rules apply. Consult the section titled
The Radiance and Mutation above in this book.

has fur, over 90% of it has fallen out. Its surface veins bulge
and glow with an eerie orange energy.
A type II radiance mutant gains nourishment by
absorbing massive amounts of radiance form the
surrounding area. This effect suppresses all radiance spells
and items not between the Nucleus of the Spheres and this
creature. This effect also guarantees that there can only be
one type II radiance mutant in existence at any one time
since only the one closest to the radiance would receive
nourishment. If this creature is denied radiance energy, it
looses 1d8 hit points per round until it is dead or its food
supply is restored.
The statistics for a type II radiance mutant are calculated
as follows: Apply the Type I Radiance Mutant template, and
then apply the Gargantua template (RC 177).

One time in a million, when an unfortunate creature is
directly exposed to the Nucleus of the Spheres, it mutates
into a living radiance source. The features of this stage of
mutation are very consistent.
The mutant‟s size doubles. If the creature has fur, all of
it has fallen out. Its eyes glow orange and the surface of its
skin looks like a cracked crust of a blackened version of its
original color with an eerie orange energy emanating from
the cracks. It grows maple leaf shaped spinal ridges.
A type III radiance mutant generates its own radiance
energy. It acts like a radiance source with a far weaker range
for Radiance-users. A radiance-user can access the radiance
from this creature just like they can from the Nucleus of the
Spheres, but at a much reduced range.

The statistics for a type III radiance mutant are
calculated as follows: Apply the Type I Radiance Mutant

Swords
Demons’ Wrath
Gordon Bader III
This powerful and intelligent glassteel normal sword +3,
+5 versus fiends (with a 10,000 ruby in the pommel) has
served the family of Walworth for several generations. This
lawful intelligent sword is quite convinced of his superiority
over any wielder. This attitude comes into evidence by his
sarcastic critiques of the wielder when within close
company or alone. When in public, it tends to announce
72 of 75

itself in an ostentatious manner when initially drawn using a
booming voice. When communicating in a normal manner,
it speaks using a much lighter tone with a high-English
accent.
Demons‟ Wrath will not allow the wielder to attack
anyone who has not attacked the wielder first. However,
when the sword is used to attack, it will never miss its
target. Since the wielder never needs to roll to hit, he will
also never score a critical hit.
Demons‟ Wrath was created to defeat or slay the fiends
that plague Oerith. When in pursuit of this goal, any fiend
struck by the sword must make a saving throw versus spells
or be paralyzed.
The following powers only function when the sword is
in hand.
Three times per day, Demons‟ Wrath may detect traps of
all types within 10‟ range.
Also, the sword can detect metal of any type requested
up to a range of 60‟. It will point in the direction of the
material, but it cannot detect the amount. This power may
be used at will.
The sword bestows the ability to send messages by mere
thought to any creature within 90‟. The creature receiving
the thought messages will understand them. (The creature
may refuse to respond.) The wielder may also read the
thoughts of a living creature within range. The wielder must
concentrate on the creature, and he may not move or cast
spells. If the creature fails a saving throw vs. spells (or
permits the thought reading), the wielder will understand the
creature‟s thoughts. This power may also be used at will.

Radiance Sword
The blade of this normal sword +4 is composed of pure
radiance energy. If an opponent is killed by this sword, his
body is instantly turned to ash and cannot be returned to life
until a wish is used allow him to be returned to life. Also, if
the ashes are scattered, the opponent becomes irretrievably
dead unless a wish is used to gather the ashes.
When an opponent is damaged by this sword, he will
take an additional point of radiance damage every round for
a number of rounds equal to the combat damage inflicted by
this sword or until remove disease (for radiation sickness) is
cast on the victim.
Ship Modifications
Motive Power
SpellJammer Helms
AD&D SpellJammer
Cost: 100,000 Gp (Minor Helm)
250,000 Gp (Major Helm)
Each minor and major spelljammer helm allows the
individual seated upon it to move a large mass through
space by means of channeling spell energy directly into a
motive force. This energy is somewhat useful for
maneuvering the ship, but primarily it provides the push that
makes the ship move foreword (or backward). Maneuvering
comes primarily from the ship‟s sails and oars.
The power of the force is translated into the ship‟s
airspeed. A minor helm converts such energy at a rate of
120‟ (40‟) for each 3 levels of experience. A major helm
converts at a rate of 120‟ (40‟) for every two levels of
experience.
At low levels, the difference between using a minor and
major helm is small. A third-level mage will give his ship an
airspeed of 120‟ (40‟), regardless of whether a minor or
major helm is used. The higher level the magic-user, the
more important the difference between using major and
minor helms. A tenth-level wizard, for example, can give
his ship an airspeed of 600‟ (200‟) with a major helm, but
only an airspeed of 360‟ (120‟) with a minor helm. A quick
summary of levels is included below.

Using a helm prohibits any spell use by that character
within that 24-hour period. As soon as a magic-user or cleric
sits on the helm and becomes aware of the ship, he can cast
no spells of any sort until after he has had a chance to rest
and regain spells. In effect, the helm “drains” the helmsman
of all his spells the moment it is activated.
(In fact, this is not precisely what happens. The helm
attunes itself to the brain patterns of the character that
activated it. Once in synch, the helm siphons away any
magical energy the moment it begins taking shape, not all at
once. But until the character can rest, thereby breaking the
link, then energy invested in any spell he tries to cast is
immediately drawn away by the spelljamming helm. This
effect occurs regarolless of range. Oddly, the helm can
utilize the energy only if the character is seated in the helm.
Why the helm can dray power from any range, yet gains
benefits only from a helmsman actually in contact with it, is
one of the foremost unsolved puzzles of spelljamming
magic).
An individual can use either type of helm for 12 hours
without tiring. For each hour afterward, the airspeed drops
by 120‟ (40‟) to a minimum of 120‟ (40‟). After 24 hours,
the individual using the helm will pass out and not be able
to use the helm again until fully rested.
An individual seated upon a helm can talk and act
normally. The sensation of using the helm is akin to being
immersed in warm water. As a result of the magical nature
of the helm, the spelljamming spell-caster using the helm
can see things around the ship as if he were standing on the
deck. The ship becomes an extension of his body, and
responds to his demands in movement and maneuverability.
The maneuverability of a craft is a reflection of both the
spelljamming spell-caster‟s ability and the maneuvering
factor of the ship.
A minor helm can move a ship of up to 375 tons. A
major helm can move one of up to 750 tons. In reality, most
ship designers keep their craft under the 375-ton range,
though there are large men-o-war and juggernauts that are
larger than 375 tons.
Only one helm may be in service at a time, though often
a minor helm is kept as a back-up, should something happen
to the major helm.
Helms draw their magical energies directly from the
user, and the speeds they can attain are determined by the
level (or hit dice) of the individual. All helm-equipped ships
travel at the same rate of speed over long distances, but their
differences are apparent at the tactical level. In general,
given two similar helms, a ship with the more powerful
spelljamming magic-user or cleric is the faster ship.
Helms can be easily installed in any ship, primarily by
lugging them aboard and bolting them to the deck. The
minimum hull size required for a helm is 1 ton.
If an individual is slain while using the helm, the ship
loses all power until a new spelljamming magic-user or
cleric takes command. The ship will drift (at tactical speed)
in a straight line until someone else takes the helm or the
ship hits something.
Major and minor helms are nearly (but not completely)
indestructible. Their saving throws against all attacks are 2.
Unfortunately, this protection does not extend to the
individual seated in the helm. Diligent and crafty characters
may find ways to destroy helms, but the process is not easy
or quick.
