==Armor ==
Transmutation <br>
'''Level''': Brd 1, Sor/Wiz 1 <br>
'''Components''': V, F <br>
'''Casting Time''': 1 swift action <br>
'''Range''': Touch <br>
'''Target''': Willing creature touched <br>
'''Duration''': 1 hour/level <br>
'''Saving Throw''': Will negates (harmless) <br>
'''Spell Resistance''': Yes (harmless)

Touch a creature's clothes and turn them into armor, with an armor bonus of +4 with no weight, armor check penalty, or spell failure chance. The creature is considered proficient with this armor, and is not metal armor. Anything worn in pockets or as part of the clothing is still accessible. If the creature spends a standard action to take off the armor, the spell ends and the clothes return to normal.

''Focus'': The target creature's clothes.

==Color==
Illusion (Glamer)  <br>
'''Level''': Bard 0, Magus 0, Sorcerer/Wizard 0 <br>
'''Components''': V, S <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 standard action or more; see text <br>
'''Range''': Touch <br>
'''Target''': Part of object or creature touched up to Small size <br>
'''Duration''': 1 hour/level <br>
'''Save''': Will disbelief <br>
'''SR''': No

This spell changes the coloration of a willing creature or object. It can affect a creature or object of up to Small size, or a similarly-sized part of a larger object or about 10 sq. ft. of surface area [1 sq. m.]. This is enough to cover the head of a Large creature. Color gives a +2 competence bonus on Disguise, Forgery, Profession (Groom) and appropriate Craft skills. When used with skills to create more than simple flat colors, the casting time is extended to the time such a craft project would normally take.

==Creature Image==
Illusion (Figment)  <br>
'''Level''': Sorcerer/Wizard 2 <br>
'''Components''': V, S, F <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level) <br>
'''Effect''': Visual figment, not larger than Large size.<br>
'''Duration''': Concentration + 1 round/level (D) <br>
'''Saving Throw''': Will disbelief <br>
'''Spell Resistance''': No

Creates a visual illusion of a Large or smaller creature, as visualized by the caster.
The figment includes visual, auditory, olfactory, and thermal elements, including intelligible speech. 

Acts according to the caster's instructions, not unlike a summoned monster. The spell ends if the figment moves out of range.

<i>Focus</i><br>
A bit of fleece.

==Deepockets==
Transformation  <br>
'''Level''': Magus 2, Sorcerer/Wizard 2 <br>
'''Components''': V, S, M, F <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 minute <br>
'''Range''': Touch <br>
'''Target''': Robe or pouch touched <br>
'''Duration''': 1 hour/level (D) <br>
'''Save''': Fortitude negates (harmless)<br>
'''SR''': Yes (harmless, object)

This spell must be cast on spell component pouch or spell component robe. It creates 1001 small openings into extradimensional space linked to the pockets. 1000 of these are very small; each of these can hold one diminutive item like one arrow, bolt or other ammunition, a wand, scroll, potion bottle, or most material components. Retrieving or storing an item in any of these pockets is a free action. The 1001st pocket opens the lining and allows direct access to all the stored items. This allows large objects to be stored, but storing or retrieving something through the lining is a move action. All of these items are held in a single extradimensional space, whose total capacity is 10 cu. ft. or 100 lbs.

''Material component'': A needle and some thread. 

''Focus'': A spell component pouch (5 gp) or spell component robe (30 gp).

''This spell was adapted from second edition.''

==Deflect Blow==
Abjuration  <br>
'''Level''': Cleric 0, Magus 0, Philosopher 0, Sorcerer/Wizard 0 <br>
'''Components''': S <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 immediate action <br>
'''Range''': Personal <br>
'''Target''': You <br>
'''Duration''': Instantaneous <br>

''Seeing the opponent aiming an attack of you, you make a quick warding gesture and his weapon strays.''

Cast this spell as you are being attacked. It confers a +2 Dodge bonus to AC against that one attack only.

==Feign Death==
Necromancy  <br>
'''Level''': Sorcerer/Wizard 3 <br>
'''Components''': V, S <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 immediate action <br>
'''Range''': Touch <br>
'''Target''': Willing living creature touched <br>
'''Duration''': 1 day/level (D) <br>
'''Save''': Will partial (see text) <br>
'''SR''': No

This spell puts the target is a comatose condition resembling death. Besides magical means, only close inspection and a DC 30 Heal check can discover that the target is in fact feigning death. 

In this state, the target is immune to 
attribute damage, 
bleeding, 
critical hits, 
death effects, 
mind-affecting effects, 
negative levels,
paralysis, and
poison.
All hit point damage taken is halved. The target can use his senses normally, but is helpless and can take no actions except to end the spell (as a full-round action). Natural healing still occurs.

The casting time is an immediate action; it can be cast as a reaction to an attack but before the attack is executed. The attacker must then make a Will saving throw; if this fails, the attack fails to do damage to the target of ''feign death'' and the attacker is convinced the attack killed the target. If the saving throw succeeds both the attack and the spell executes normally; the target is under the normal protection of ''feign death'' against this attack. As it only targets affects willing targets, saving throw and spell resistance is irrelevant for the target.  

''This spell was adapted from first edition.''

==Fey Gold==
Illusion (Shadow) <br>
'''Level''': Bard 2, Druid 3, Sorcerer/Wizard 2 <br>
'''Components''': V, S, F <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels. <br>
'''Target''': Objects up to 1 lb/level. <br>
'''Duration''': 1 hour/level (D) (see text) <br>
'''Save''': Will disbelief (if interacted with) <br>
'''SR''': No

''Covering the objects in autumn leaves, you turn it to gold, while spare leaves turn into a pile of gold coins.''

This spell turns any object into semi-real gold. Yellow leaves under this spell turn into gold coins; other objects become golden versions of themselves. This seems to be gold to all senses and mundane detections, having the correct weight, softness and so on. One pound of raw gold is worth 25 gp, one pound of gold coins are worth 50 gp, the value of other forgeries seem to be worth a hundred times the object's original value, up to a maximum of 100 gp per caster level. A magical object or one in a creature's possession gets a Will save when the spell is initially cast. When someone cuts the object, weighs it, or touches it with iron there is a chance to disbelieve the illusion; success ends the spell. 

''Focus'': Yellowed leaves.

==Fools Gold==
Transformation  <br>
'''Level''': Sorcerer/Wizard 2 <br>
'''Components''': V, S, M <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 full round <br>
'''Range''': Touch <br>
'''Target''': Lead, copper, or bass objects, up to 1 lb/level <br>
'''Duration''': 1 hour/level (see text) <br>
'''Save''': Will negates  (object) (see text) <br>
'''SR''': Yes (object)

This spell turns lead, copper, or brass into shining gold. One pound of raw gold is worth 25 gp, one pound of gold coins are worth 50 gp, the value of other forgeries seem to be worth a hundred times the object's original value, up to a maximum of 100 gp per caster level. A magical object or one in a creature's possession gets a Will save when the spell is initially cast. When someone touches these items with untransformed lead, copper, or brass, there is a chance the enchantment will break; a Will save is allowed, and if it succeeds the spell is negated for that particular object.

''This spell was adapted from first edition. It can be used to swindle, but a more safe use is to impress with paste jewelry.''

==Forget==
Illusion (Phantasm) (Mind-Affecting)  <br>
'''Level''': Bard 2, Philosopher 2, Sorcerer/Wizard 2 <br>
'''Components''': V, S <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) <br>
'''Target''': One or more creatures, no two of which are more than 20 ft. apart. <br>
'''Duration''': 1 round/level (see text) <br>
'''Save''': Will negates  <br>
'''SR''': Yes

This spell impairs the long-term memory of its targets. It has no immediate effect, instead it kicks in as the duration runs out and is then considered an immediate effect which can no longer be dispelled. It can be dispelled normally before the effect kicks in. When it activates all those affected forget what transpired during the duration and for an equal time beforehand. Lost memories can be recovered using ''hypnotism'' or with any effect that restores Intelligence damage (except normal rest). 

On the last round of the duration targets are dazed. If there are no immediate concerns or dangers at the end of that round targets are likely to stand down, confused at what transpired and how they got to where they are.

''Tim the tax-collector accosts Wolfram the mage. Unwilling to pay the tax, wolfram casts ''sleep'' on the tax men, followed by this spell to remove all memory of the incident. Unfortunately, Tim had been trailing Wolfram for a bit; even if he forgets the incident, he still remembers that Wolfram is behind on taxes because he learned about that outside the time span affected by the spell.''

==Fumble ==
Enchantment (Compulsion) (Mind-Affecting)  <br>
'''Level''': Bard 1, Magus 1, Philosopher 1, Sorcerer/Wizard 1 <br>
'''Components''': V, S <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) <br>
'''Target''': One creature. <br>
'''Duration''': Instantaneous <br>
'''Save''': Reflex negates  <br>
'''SR''': Yes

This spell causes the target to fumble. One of the following happens to the target, as selected by the caster. If the event is not applicable, nothing happens.

* Fumbles and drops any items it holds in its hands (or other appendages).  
* Trips up and falls prone.
* Blunders and triggers an attack of opportunity from all creatures threatening it; if none do there is no effect.
* Has its vision (or other primary sense) blocked and is blind until it takes a move action to clear it.
* Gets ''entangled'' by it’s own armor or a nearby terrain feature such as a bush. Takes a full-round action to clear.  
* Loses concentration, breaking any spells cast or maintained trough concentration. Continuous skill attempts (such as scaling a wall) also fail.

==Neglect==
Illusion (Shadow)  <br>
'''Level''': Bard 0, Sorcerer/Wizard 0 <br>
'''Components''': V, S, M <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) <br>
'''Target''': Burst out to range <br>
'''Duration''': 10 minutes/level  <br>
'''Save''': Will disbelief (if interacted with) <br>
'''SR''': No

This spell causes the affected area to appear vacant, neglected, and unused. This spell creates semi-real dust, cobwebs, thin wisps of mist, eerie but faint lights, rattling and prattling noises, ghostly footsteps, and other mood elements suited to an abandoned or haunted look as desired by the caster. It does not impair visibility in any way, merely making things look like they have been undisturbed for a long time. It cannot change the appearance of living creatures.

''Material component'': A tattered ribbon of black silk or spider web.

==Ignite ==
Evocation (Fire) <br>
'''Level''': 	Druid 0, Ranger 1, Sor/Wiz 0 <br>
'''Components''': 	V, S <br>
'''Casting Time''': 	1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': 	Close (25 ft. + 5 ft. /2 levels<br>
'''Effect''': 	1 target or 5-ft.-radius spread, see text<br>
'''Duration''': 	Instantaneous <br>
'''Saving Throw''': 	Reflex negates <br>
'''Spell Resistance''': 	Yes <br>

This spell will start a campfire even if it is built of fresh, wet wood. It can ignite several candles, torches, matches, or other items made to be lit, as long as they are all within 5 ft. of each other.

When used against a creature, the targets clothes of fur begins to burn and the target catches on fire. Ignite is not powerful enough to ignite living flesh; a creature that is not itself flammable and does not have flammable hair, fur, or clothing is immune.

On each of his turns, the burning character may make another Reflex saving throw against this spells save DC. Once he succeeds on a saving throw, he’s no longer on fire. In each of your turns when the creature remains on fire he takes 1d6 points of fire damage. In other words, the target receives two saving throws before taking damage the first time, more if he attempts to douse the flame (see below).

A character on fire may automatically extinguish the flames by jumping into enough water to douse himself. If no body of water is at hand, rolling on the ground or smothering the fire with cloaks or the like (a standard action) permits the character another save with a +4 bonus.

==Launch Bullet==
'''Transmutation''' <br>
'''Level''': Magus 2, Philosopher 3, Sorcerer/wizard 2 <br>
'''Components''': V, S <br>
'''Casting Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) <br>
'''Target''': One or more small missiles <br>
'''Duration''': Instantaneous <br>
'''Saving Throw''': No <br>
'''Spell Resistance''': No <br>

You launch rocks, sling bullets or other small item to strike an opponent. You may fire one missile at levels up to 6, two missiles at level 7, and three missiles at level 11 and up. Each missile requires a ranged attack to hit and deals 4d6 points of smashing damage. The missiles counts as being launched from a sling with an enhancement bonus to hit and damage of +1 per 3 caster levels (+1 at third level, +2 at sixth level, +3 at 9th level, +4 at 12th level, +5 at 15th level and +6 at 18th level). Apply the normal rules for any special ammunition used.

The missiles may be fired at the same or different targets, but all of them must be aimed at targets within 30 feet of each other and fired simultaneously.

==Mature Plant ==
Transmutation <br>
'''Level''': Druid 1, Ranger 2 <br>
'''Components''': V, S, M, DF, XP <br>
'''Casting Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Touch <br>
'''Target''': Plant touched <br>
'''Duration''': Concentration<br>
'''Saving Throw''': None <br>
'''Spell Resistance''': No

This spell matures a single plant, causing it to grow and mature in a matter of rounds. It can be cast on a newly planted seed or on an immature plant. As the spell is cast, the seed sprouts and the plant grows to tiny size. For each round the plant grows by one size category, up to a maximum size depending on caster level. If the plant reaches its full natural size and the caster would be capable of making a plant larger than this, it will then burst into flower and fruit simultaneously on the next round, regardless of the season. The grown plant is not magical and cannot be dispelled, but if the spell is dispelled while the plant is still growing, growth immediately stops.

The spell can never make the plant to grow larger than it could naturally do in the current location and it will not grow in a way that causes it to damage construction or completely fill an area. It has no effect on plant creatures or plants with challenge rating, such as green slime.

If the plant yields something of value, such as darkwood or herbs with medical or magical effects, the caster needs to sprinkle an equal value in diamond dust over the plant. Normal hardwoods, fruit or herbs have no cost.

==Mist of Deceit==
Illusion (Pattern) (Mind-Affecting)  <br>
'''Level''': Sorcerer/Wizard 4 <br>
'''Components''': V, S <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': 	Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft. level) <br>
'''Effect''': 	Fog spreads in 20-ft. radius, 20 ft. high <br>
'''Duration''': 1 round/level  <br>
'''Save''': Will partial (see text) <br>
'''SR''': No

A bank of fog billows out from the point you designate and appears similar to a ''fog cloud'' to casual observation, although the effect is quite different. The fog prevents all vision into or out of the area. Creatures can see normally inside, but their vision is distorted making position and movement uncertain and friends appear as foes. 

Whenever a creature inside the cloud attempts to make an attack or cast a targeted spell at an enemy, a Will save is required; on a failure all attacks in that round are actually directed at the closest friendly creature instead, assuming there are any within sight. If several friends are equidistant the attacker gets to pick whom to attack. If the new target is out of range, the attacker must move 5 ft. to get in position to attack; this is an extra free move, and actually represents the uncertainty of position the spell engenders; the attacker wasn't actually where he was supposed to be. If the attack is not possible after this movement, the attacker does nothing. A new saving throw is required for each attack sequence or targeted spell cast.

Whenever a creature inside the cloud bank tries to leave the cloud under his own power (by walking, teleporting, flying etc), a Will save is required; on a failure, the creature instead stands still or teleports back to the same location.

The caster is immune to the confusion effects of this spell, tough his vision is still impaired.

==Mutual Attraction ==
Enchantment (Charm) (Mind-Affecting)  <br>
'''Level''': Bard 0, Sorcerer/Wizard 0 <br>
'''Duration''': 10 minutes/level (D) <br>

This is the same as ''charm person'', except as noted above and in that it affects both the caster and the target, charming each in relation to the other. The spell only works as long as it affects both parties; if it is saved against, dispelled, suppressed, or otherwise negated for one part, it ceases for the other as well. The caster can end the spell at any time and need not be in range of the target to do so (the caster is always in range of himself).

==Phantom Armor ==
Illusion (Shadow) <br>
'''Level''': Sorcerer/Wizard 2 <br>
'''Components''': V, S <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Personal <br>
'''Target''': You  <br>
'''Duration''': 1 hour/level (D) or until beaten down; see text. <br>
'''Saving Throw''': Will disbelief (See text)<br>

This spell creates the illusion of a suit of full-plate armor on your person. This suit gives an armor bonus of +9 with no weight, chance of arcane spell failure, movement restriction, or armor penalty. An opponent that misses an attack against the normal or flat-footed AC of the wearer of phantom armor is allowed a Will saving throw; on a success, he gets a +4 bonus to hit against the armor from then on. Note that missed touch attacks do not allow saving throws. If you take off the phantom armor, the spell ends.

''Material component'': A small bar of steel.

''This spell has been adapted from first edition.''

==Pushing Ray ==
Transmutation <br>
'''Level''': Magus 0, Sorcerer/Wizard 0 <br>
'''Components''': V, S <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) <br>
'''Effect''': Ray <br>
'''Duration''': Instantaneous <br>
'''Save''': None <br>
'''SR''': Yes  

This ray gives a telekinetic push similar to what an normal human can do. This is sufficient to switch a lever, move small objects, and possibly open a stuck door or push weak creatures around but does not allow fine manipulation. A ranged touch attack is required to hit, and the spell can attempt Strength feats involving pushing (such as opening a stuck door), bull rush, or trip as a Medium size creature with Strength 10 and +0 CMD.

==Repellant, Red's ==
Abjuration (Electricity)  <br>
'''Level''': Magus 2, Sor/Wiz 2 <br>
'''Components''': V, S, M <br>
'''Casting Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Touch <br>
'''Target''': Willing creature touched <br>
'''Duration''': 1 hour/level (D) <br>
'''Saving Throw''': Reflex negates <br>
'''Spell Resistance''': Yes

This spell surrounds the target in a field of static electricity. This gives off a small electric shock to all diminutive or smaller creatures in the caster's space at the end of the caster's turn. To such creatures, the spell inflicts 1 point of damage. To a swarm of such creatures, the spell inflicts 1d4 points of electric damage per caster level, with a maximum of 5d4 at 5th level. A Reflex saving throw negates the damage for the round, but a new save is required on the next round if the creature remains in the area.

==Reproduction, Red's ==
Transmutation <br>
'''Level''': Philosopher 2, Sorcerer/wizard 2<br>
'''Components''': V, S, M <br>
'''Casting Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) <br>
'''Target''': Object or objects with images and or writing <br>
'''Duration''': 10 minutes/level <br>
'''Saving Throw''': Will negates (object) <br>
'''Spell Resistance''': Yes (object) <br>

''You point at the object and then move your hand holding a stylus or quill. As you intone the spell, a copy appears on a sheet of paper close at hand.''

You cause writing and images from one source
(such as a book) to be copied into a
book, paper, or parchment. This spell
copies one square foot (one page in a typical large codex, or approximately 250 words) per minute. It can also copy a miniature version of a large image, copying up to a 10 ft. square image onto a 1 ft. square paper in one minute, but considerable detail is lost this way. The caster must remain within range while spell works, but need not pay attention.

The spell faithfully copies what is there to the limit of it's ability, but subtle clues or hidden details might be lost. What the spell produces is obviously a reproduction, but includes all salient details, similar to what a journeyman artist could produce (equivalent to a Craft roll of 15). 
The caster can use Craft (Calligraphy) to improve the quality of what the spell produces if desired, but this requires concentration.

The spell copies only nonmagical text and images, not magical writings, symbols or images (such as the text of a spellbook, a spell scroll, or a ''sepia snake sigil''). If the target contains normal and magical imagery (such as a letter with ''explosive runes''), only the normal parts are copied, leaving blank space in the copy where the magic would be expected. The spell triggers (but does not copy) writing and symbol-based magic traps in the material being copied.

Blank paper, parchment, or a book
must be provided for the spell to write
upon. If the target has multiple pages,
the spell automatically turns to the
next blank page whenever necessary.
If more pages in the target exist than
blank pages are available, the spell
copies the original until it runs out of
blank pages. At any time during the
spell’s duration you can redirect the
magic to copy from another target, copy
onto a different blank source, or resume
a duplication that was interrupted by a
shortfall of blank pages.

''Material component'': A quill.

==Riddle Resolver, Red's ==
Divination   <br>
'''Level''': Bard 1, Philosopher 1, Sor/Wiz 1 <br>
'''Components''': V, S, M <br>
'''Casting Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Personal <br>
'''Target''': You <br>
'''Duration''': 1 minute/level (D) <br>

This spell lets you envision symbols, working out possible combinations and solutions to riddles, texts and ciphers in your head at a furious rate.

This allows you to use the Linguistics skill to decipher script or solve riddles as a full-round action instead of in one minute. It also grants a +4 circumstance bonus on decipher script checks.

''Material Component'':
Brown sugar dissolved in water to be drunk.

==Shadow Armaments==
Illusion (Shadow)  <br>
'''Level''': Magus 2, Sorcerer/Wizard 2 <br>
'''Components''': V, S <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Touch <br>
'''Target''': One illusory enchanted item <br>
'''Duration''': 10 minutes/level <br>
'''Save''': Will partial (see text)  <br>
'''SR''': No

This spell creates one illusory magic item out of shadow; either a weapon or a suit of armor of any kind. This item has an enhancement bonus of +1 per four caster levels and is used exactly like a normal item of its kind, except that the caster of the spell is always considered proficient with shadow arms. An intelligent target is entitled to a Will saving throw when first struck by such a weapon; on a success, the item’s mundane armor bonus or damage value can be ignored, but damage derived from the enhancement bonus applies as normal. Non-intelligent creatures and objects automatically succeed at this saving throw, but note that weapons (including ranged weapons) use the saving throw of their wielder.

==Shadow Creation==
Illusion (Shadow)  <br>
'''Level''': Sorcerer/Wizard 3 <br>
'''Components''': V, S <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 minute <br>
'''Range''': 0 ft. <br>
'''Target''': Unattended, nonmagical object, up to 1 cu. ft./level<br>
'''Duration''': 1 hour/level (D) <br>
'''Save''': Will disbelief; see text  <br>
'''SR''': No

You create an unattended item with no magical properties. The volume of the item created cannot exceed 1 cubic foot per caster level. 
 
Items so created are only partially real. When interacting solely with dead matter, they have only 20% of their normal strength or capacity. When interacting with a creature the item functions normally, but that creature can attempt a Will saving throw; success causes the item to disappear.

''Jingen creates magical rope. He uses this rope to haul himself out of a crevice. He chooses to void his Will saving throw, and the ''shadow creation'' rope functions normally. Later, Jingen uses part of the rope to repair a bridge and then moves on; in this case the rope has only 20% of its normal strength. Finally, he uses some of it to tie up an opponent; forgetting that the opponent can make a Will saving throw each round he interacts with (in this case makes a roll to to get out of) the rope.''

Armor or weapons created in this fashion allow opponents Will saving throws each round to dissipate them .

Attempting to use any created object as a material component causes the spell to fail.

==Shadow Fighting==
Illusion (Shadow)  <br>
'''Level''': Bard 1, Cleric 1, Magus 1, Sor/Wiz 2 <br>
'''Components''': V, S, M/DF <br>
'''Casting Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Touch <br>
'''Target''': Creature touched <br>
'''Duration''': 1 minute/level or until disbelieved <br>
'''Saving Throw''': Will negates and Will disbelief; see text <br>
'''Spell Resistance''': Yes; see text

This spell turns the target's attacks into unreal shadows inflicting illusory damage. The attacks look and feel real enough, but cannot actually kill. This spell can be used to fool an opponent into causing unreal damage, but it is more commonly used to stage nonlethal duels and arena events or to fake conflicts. As such, it is most effective when cast on a willing target.

Any damage the target does is transformed into nonlethal damage, including damage done by spells and powers. This transformation is done after any modification due to type, like that due to damage or elemental resistance or vulnerability. After the transformation, damage can be further reduced if the target is resistant to nonlethal damage.

The target can make a Will save to disbelieve whenever he inflicts damage. Anyone bandaging or closely studying the illusory wounds can make a Will save to disbelieve. Successful disbelief ends the spell. Any damage remains, but now appears as mere bruises. 

The initial target can use spell resistance to resist the spell, but a target that takes nonlethal damage because of the spell may not. 

This will not affect any damage caused indirectly, such as by a summoned creature or from a fall caused by a bull rush.

''Arcane material component'': A flimsy miniature weapon.

==Shadow Fighting, Mass ==
Illusion (Shadow)  <br>
'''Level''': Bard 3, Cleric 3, Magus 3, Sor/Wiz 5. <br>
'''Range''': Close <br>
'''Target''': One creature/level, no two of which may be more than 30 ft. apart.

Except as noted, this is the same as the ''shadow fighting'' spell.

==Shadow Heal==
Illusion (Shadow) <br>
'''Level''': Bard 6, Sorcerer/Wizard 7 <br>
'''Components''': V, S <br>
'''Cast Time''': 1 standard action <br>
'''Range''': Touch <br>
'''Target''': Living creature touched <br>
'''Duration''': 10 minutes/level <br>
'''Save''': Will negates <br>
'''SR''': Yes

You heal a living target 10 hit points per level (maximum of 200 hp at level 20). Half of  the healing is unreal and dissipates when the spell ends, which can kill the target. While the spell is in effect, any ability damage, blinded, confused, dazed, dazzled, deafened, diseased, exhausted, fatigued, feebleminded, insanity, nauseated, sickened, stunned, and poisoned effects on the target are suppressed, but the effect resumes once shadow heal ends unless they would normally have run out in the meantime.

==Shadow Wounds==
Illusion (Shadow) <br>
'''Level''': Sorcerer/Wizard 2 <br>
'''Components''': V, S <br>

You can comprehend and communicate with animals and magical beasts. You are able to use interaction skills normally to ask questions of and receive answers from such creatures, although the spell doesn’t make them any more friendly or cooperative than normal. Wary and cunning beasts are likely to be terse and evasive, while the more stupid ones make inane comments. If an animal is friendly toward you, it may do some favor or service for you.

'''Level''': Sorcerer/Wizard 4 <br>

As ''shadow wounds'', except the spell heals or inflicts 4d8 + level (maximum +20) damage and that one hit point per die is real and does not dissipate once the spell ends.

''You toss colored sand in the air, drawing the gaze of your target. The sand freezes to hang motionless in the air, and the targets attention remains riveted to it.'' 

Targets are dazed and can take no actions, tough it defends itself normally, and gets a new saving throw each round to break the spell (which counts as a full-round action). A target that takes any damage is immediately free of the spell.

''Material component'': A pinch of brightly colored sand.

==Summon Ally ==
Conjuration (Summoning) <br>
'''Level''': Bard 0, Cleric 0, Druid 0, Sor/Wiz 0 <br>

This spell functions like ''summon nature's ally I'', except that you can summon one animal or vermin from the list of possible standard familiars. This is a normal summoned creature, not a familiar and has none of the special advantages familiars get. The spell just uses the same list.  This is considered to be both a ''summon nature's ally'' spell and a ''summon monster'' spell for the purpose of feats and abilities which affect such spells.

*[[Familiars (D&D)|List of optional familiars]].

''Putting two similar items into the cold-iron cauldron, you laboriously invoke the spell. When you are done, only one item remains.''

This spell transfers all magical properties from one item to another, destroying the first item while making the second item magical. The two items must be identical in mundane function; such as two masterwork longswords, but can differ in size and immaterial details such as decoration. The item to receive the enchantment must be nonmagical, but capable of holding the enchantment to be transfered. In the case of arms and armor, it must be a masterwork item. 

The magic item gets a saving throw to resist the effect, and if this succeeds, it is immune to further castings of this spell from this caster until the caster advances in caster level.

''Focus'': A cauldron of cold iron costing no less than 1,000 gp.

==Transfer Enhancement, Greater==
Transmutation <br>
'''Level''': 	Alchemist 4, Cleric 6, Druid 6, Magus 5, Sor/Wiz 5 <br>

This is the same as ''transfer enhancement'', above, except that items can be different, as long as they are of the same basic kind. A weapon enchantment can be transfered onto another weapon, armor enchantment onto other armor. Wondrous item enhancements can be transfered onto another item capable of holding this enhancement. In no case can an item be given an enchantment not suited to its form.

==Unseen Musician==
Conjuration (Creation) <br>
'''Level''': Brd 1, Cler 2, Sor/Wiz 2 <br>
'''Components''': V, S, (F, See text) <br>
'''Duration''':  10 minute/level

This is the same as ''unseen servant'' except as noted above and in that it cannot manipulate objects except musical instruments; the only action it can perform is to play music. The caster must know the tune to be played, and the unseen musician gives only a passing performance, equivalent to a Perform check of 15. It is mostly used as background music or as accompaniment for a lone singer or dancer. The unseen musician can only hum and play instruments; it cannot speak or sing intelligibly.

''Focus'': The musical instrument to be played. No focus is required for a vocalist performance. The focus is actually carried and played by the unseen musician.
