Notes on spells:
The above spells provide a framework of spell effects. Many existing
characters have used spells from the previous versions of the rules
that have different names. Let us take a few examples rather than a
long explanation of how to conver the spells already held.
Air Dart – In the previous system this did one
damage to a targeted location. In this system it is the Flay location
spell. It can still be called Air Dart and just the casting cost changed.
Repel Living – In the previous system this caused
all living entities within 10 feet of the caster to be repelled for
approximately 30 feet (10 paces). Knock back in the present system costs
1 manna to use for a distance of ten feet for one person. Mass effect
is 8, Knock back is 1 but to get 30 feet we are using it three times
so it is 3 plus 3 for the mechanic being used 3 times. Casting cost
is 14 manna.
Turn into Frog – (basically a polymorph other
spell) caused another player to be turned into a frog for a short while
and was a spell used by witches. The player had to have a puppet that
the player of the changed character used for this time. For the caster
to do this to him or her self would cost 8 manna. Double the cost to
make it a range spell. Casting cost then is 16 manna.
