This thread is for the discussion and proposal of balance changes to the various core magic schools and spells. This thread is NOT for homebrew spells of core schools. We aren't here to talk about how it interacts with homebrew. The existing magic lore is fine and whatever, the goal is to adjust mechanics, whether to make it line up with the lore in some cases, or to tune down the screamingly overpowered stuff in presumably most cases. Feel free to discuss and contribute. Any altered spell listed below will have the original listed along with changes for reference.

Level 3
Mage Armor
Abjuration 3
Focus Power Test: Abjuration + Willpower
Target Number: 20
Action: Half Action
Keywords: Somatic, Touch
Duration: One Day
The touched creature gains Armor Points

Focus: A small gem.
Ruby Ray
Abjuration 3
Test: Abjuration + Willpower
Target Number: 25
Action: Reaction Action
Keywords: -
Duration: Instant
A Ruby Ray is effectively a more powerful and
limited form of Dispel. It can be used in one of
two ways - as a reaction to a spell, or to set up a
shield in advance. When used as a shield, it reflects the next spell cast at the shielded target before the end of the round. It only reflects spells
that target a single target, not those that effect
everyone in a scene or a burst effect like energyball. If used as a reaction, it can only protect the
caster. The refected spell's target is changed to
its caster.

Focus Power Test: Abjuration + Willpower
Target Number: 30
Action: Full Action
Keywords: Social, Somatic, Touch

to everyone within 3m.
Disjunction
Abjuration 4
Focus Power Test: Abjuration + Willpower

cast spells until the end of your next turn.
Globe of Invulnerability
Abjuration 4
Test: Abjuration + Willpower
Target Number: 30
Action: Half Action
Keywords: Somatic, Verbal
Duration: One Scene
The caster of the spell becomes immune to spells
of Level 1 and 2. The caster cannot be targeted
by such spells, and if caught in the area of effect
of such a spell simply ignores its effect. However,
they are not immune to spells that don't directly
affect them - their attacks can still be parried with
Shield, enemies under the effect of Boon still get
their bonus against the caster, and so forth.
Level 5
Contingency
Abjuration 5
Focus Power Test: Abjuration + Willpower
Target Number: 30
Action: Full Action
Keywords: Social, Somatic, Touch
Duration: Indefinite (E)
On the completion of this spell, you must immediately cast another spell. That spell does
not take immediate effect. Under a condition
chosen at the time of casting, that spell takes
immediate effect. Targets must be chosen
when the spell is cast, though they may be left
vague (for example, you might cast fireball and
set the target at 'what I am pointing to'). A
character may only have one Contingency active at a time.
Wall of Force
Abjuration 5
Test: Abjuration + Wilpower
Target Number: 35
Action: Half Action
Keywords: Somatic, Verbal
Duration: One Scene
This spell creates a powerful magic force-field. A
stationary plane of force up to 20m long is created within 50m. This plane is effectively indestructible for as long as it lasts. This spell cannot
cause damage, and if the wall's area of effect
would intersect something (like trying to cast it
through a person or tree) it instead stops before
intersecting them, creating a shortened version
of the wall.

You create a portal large enough for a person

100m. The portal must be placed on a relatively flat surface, but can otherwise be set at
any angle. If the surface moves, the portal vanishes instantly. You must cast this spell twice
for it to have much effect. The portals are like
a doorway - there's no real space between
them, entering one immediately puts you out
the other. You can hang halfway through a
portal, though if one is closed you're expelled
through the open side. Momentum is conserved through the portals. You may have only
two portals open at once. If you attempt to
open a third, you must choose which of your
existing portals closes.

vanishing in about five minutes in normal conditions, less if there's wind, bright sunlight, and so
forth.

Action: Full Action
Keywords: Combo-OK, Somatic, Verbal

As Blink, but with no maximum distance, and
you may teleport anywhere you have seen before. Unless you are extremely familiar with
the destination, you must make a Wisdom +
Perception check against TN 25 (The SM
may raise the TN for locations you've only
seen once or have seen only from a distance or

effect to the target for the portal opening. This
portal counts as one of the two open portals
you may have and otherwise follows all the
rules of Porte. Unless you are extremely familiar with the destination, you must make a Wisdom + Perception check against TN 25 (The
SM may raise the TN for locations you've only
seen once or have seen only from a distance or
through divination spells).
Black Blade of Disaster
Conjuration 5
Test: Conjuration + Willpower
Target Number: 35
Action: Full Action
Keywords: Verbal, Somatic
Duration: One Scene
This spell creates a dimensional rift to a zerospace of utter destruction, a realm of void and
emptiness so hungry that it has a kind of terrible
unlife. The rift takes the form of a large sword
that effectively functions as a Power Sword. In
addition to the normal properties of a Power
Sword, the Black Blade of Disaster ignores a targets Armor, effectively giving it infinite penetration. If the blade leaves the caster's hands, it
disappears immediately.

Focus Power Test: Divination + Wisdom
Target Number: 20
Action: Full Action
Keywords: Focus, Social
Duration: Instant
You get a general idea of if your current course

Duration: Instant
You are able to detect surface thoughts. You get
a general idea of a person's emotions using this
spell. Make your Focus Power test against the
targetÊs Mental Defense. If your test succeeds,
you can detect more specific thoughts. If you get
a number of raises equal to the target's
Willpower, you can get the answer to a single

If he doesn't, or is misinformed, you'll just get the
wrong answer he has.

Keywords: Material, Somatic, Social
Duration: One Scene
You create a small magical sensor. It flies at your
normal movement rate and can go up to 4 kilometers from you. The sensor is tiny (size 1) and
difficult to spot. You can see through it with all
of your normal senses (you lose the benefits of
any magic or technology improving these senses
beyond the norms for your race - though an Arcane Eye could allow a blind person to see, it
wouldn't allow someone who had an infrared
preysight installed in his forehead to use that). If
the sensor takes any damage, it is destroyed.
Material: An eye from any creature.
Level 3
Scry
Divination 3
Focus Power Test: Divination + Wisdom
Target Number: 25
Action: Full Action
Keywords: Focus, Social, Somatic, Verbal
Duration: Concentration (Half)
To cast this spell, you must have an object that

Legend Lore
Divination 3

Target Number: 25

Action: Full Action

allies you name on casting this spell can speak
through this network silently and instantly.
Unluck

Focus Power Test: Divination + Wisdom
Target Number: 30
Action: Half Action
Keywords: Attack, Combo-OK, Saving
Throw, Subtle
Duration: One scene

Foresee
Divination 4
Test: Divination + Intelligence
Target Number: 30
Action: Full Action
Keywords: Somatic, Verbal, Social
Duration: Instant
You gain insight into the near future. Upon successfully casting this spell, you gain a vague idea of the next significant threat. While the SM is not required to tell you what it is, he should give you an idea of how to prepare for it. When you encounter said danger (or manage to avoid it - no SM is perfect and the future is always in flux) Forsee triggers again and lets you know that it is time.
Level 5
Commune
Divination 5
Focus Power Test: Divination + Wisdom
Target Number: 30
Action: Full Action
Keywords: Focus, Language Dependent, Material, Mind-Affecting, Social, Verbal
Duration: One minute per level.
You begin a conversation with anyone you
name, regardless of distance or barriers between you. The target may end this conversation at any time. It lasts for up to five minutes.
Focus: A scrying pool, crystal ball or mirror.
Material: Incense.
Hindsight
Divination 5
Test: Divination + Intelligence
Target Number: 35
Action: Full Action
Keywords: Somatic, Verbal, Social
Duration: Concentration (Reaction)
Whereas Foresee allows you to see the future,
Hindsight allows you to see the past. While many
consider seeing the past to be a fairly simple
thing, Hindsight is actually more difficult in
some ways. Where forsee is only a very vague,
general idea of the future, Hindsight allows you
to see the past in stark focus. You can see historical events (or a named day/time) as if they were
occurring around you. Hindsight does not
change your location, so you view the times and
events from where you are now. You can move
around during the spell's duration to see other
things going on, but cannot interact with things
you see in the past - it's just an illusion.

roll of 1-4, he hurts himself (losing 1 Hit Point).
On a roll of 5-6, he does nothing. On 7-9, he may

Test: Enchantment + Charisma
Target Number: 25
Action: Half Action
Keywords: Subtle, Social, Verbal, Language-Dependant, Mind-Affecting
Duration: Instant
Much more subtle than other methods of mind
control, Suggestion empowers the casters words
with a magical compulsion that leaves others
wondering why they did something. The caster
makes a simple request. As long as the request is
something within the target's nature, they do not
get a saving throw to resist. If the request is unusual, the target may make a saving throw. Targets who pass their saving throw are not aware of

tempted to follow the caster's request.

Screen creates a powerful protection from scrying and observation. When casting the spell you
dictate what will and will not be observed in the
spell's area. Attempts to scry or view the area remotely automatically detect the image stated by
you, allowing you to easily fool cameras, satellite
observation, and magic. Viewing the image directly or attempting to interact with it may allow
a saving throw if there is cause to disbelieve what
is seen.

Ideas: Should Unluck last only for one round? One round might not seem like much but it does cover all test made during that period (as opposed to having it last only for one test).
There are two spells named Foresee, perhaps the Level 4 would could be renamed to Forewarn?

Post by ScrapyardDragon on Nov 18, 2021 22:11:05 GMT -6
I think making it only a single round sort of guts the viability of it, but then I remember it also cripples characteristic rolls (while being undodgable) and am glad to see it be nerfed into the ground. I'd sooner say make it ranged touch so that you can counter it half-decently without having to be informed in the arcane arts by just, jumping out of the way.
I'm partial to renaming the level 2 one to foresight but it doesn't actually matter which of the two gets renamed, could be a coinflip either way. Plus a case can be made that since the level 2 foresee is in book 1 it should keep the name from seniority. forewarn is as good a name as any given the effect is so vague.

Yeah, that's the secret key to Unluck.Ranged Touch sounds nice, forces wizards to allocate dots in Ballistics. My plan was to use the Touch keyword since...something something conduit of bad luck, something something infectious touch.
I don't want to use Foresight since there's already a feat that uses it, even though the Luck spell also shares a name with a feat.

I see no reason why a cartomancer should have to buy a new deck each time she tries to cast an Augury. Should be a Focus (required but not consumed), not a Material (consumed in casting).
