Anti-Undead Spells

The cleric/oracle lists has many anti-outsider spells, but fewer spells that work against undead. While clerics can channel energy against undead, oracles cannot, and these spells fill that niche.

Sacred Beam

Evocation [good]
Level cleric/oracle 2
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, DF
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Target one creature
Duration 1 round
Saving Throw Will negates
Spell Resistance yes

You channel searing positive energy against a creature in range. The target takes 1d6 points of damage per two caster levels (maximum 5d6). An undead takes double damage and is blinded for 1 round. This spell does full damage to incorporeal creatures. It counters or dispels any darkness spell of equal or lower level, such as darkness.

Sacred Light

Evocation [good, light]
Level cleric/oracle 2
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, DF
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Area 10-ft.-radius burst
Duration instantaneous
Saving Throw will half (see text)
Spell Resistance yes

You channel a burst of blinding light and positive energy that harms creatures with affinity for negative energy. Undead and creatures harmed by sunlight take 1d8 points of damage per two caster levels (maximum 5d8) and are blinded for one round. Creatures with light blindness or light sensitivity are blinded for 1 round but take no damage. This spell does full damage to incorporeal creatures. It counters or dispels any darkness spell of equal or lower level, such as darkness. A successful Will save reduces the damage to half and negates the blinded effect.

Sacred Smite

Evocation [good, light]
Level cleric/oracle 4
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, DF
Range medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level)
Area 20-ft.-radius burst
Duration instantaneous
Saving Throw will half (see text)
Spell Resistance yes

You channel a burst of blinding light and positive energy that harms creatures of darkness. Creatures with light blindness or light sensitivity are blinded for 1 round and take 1d6 nonlethal damage per 2 caster levels (maximum 10d6). Undead and creatures harmed by sunlight take double lethal damage and are blinded for 2d3 rounds. This spell does full damage to incorporeal creatures. It counters or dispels any darkness spell of equal or lower level, such as darkness. A successful Will save reduces the damage to half and negates the blinded effect.

Proposed Spells

Blowing Dust

Transmutation
Level cleric/oracle 0, druid 0
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Target one creature
Duration 1 round
Saving Throw none
Spell Resistance yes

Dust and/or sand around the target is kicked up and swirls around their face. In an environment with no air or dust/sand or other suitable material, the spell fails. All creatures have concealment (20% miss chance) against the target for 1 round.

Cancel Action

Divination
Level: cleric/oracle 2, inquisitor 2, occultist 2, psychic 2, witch 2.
Components: V, S
Cast Time: 1 immediate action
Range: personal
Target: you
Duration: instantaneous

When you make a skill check and fail, you can cast this spell. This gives you a premonition of failure, allowing you to cancel the action that initiated the skill check. You instead take no action this round. You cannot use this with skills used reflexively, such as when your Perception sets the difficulty of another character's Stealth check.

Cleromancy

Divination
Level: bard 2, bloodrager 2, cleric/oracle 2, druid 2, occultist 2, psychic 2, ranger 2, shaman 2, sorcerer/wizard 3, spiritualist 2, witch 2.
Components: V, S, F (divination tokens)
Cast Time: 1 standard action
Range: personal
Target: you
Duration: instantaneous

To cast this spell, you need a set of lots or tokens, each associated with a spiritual entity or ideal. You also need one blank lot. To select a specific mix of such tokens in preparation for using this spell is a full-round action. To make a new token to represent a new concept is also a full-round action. Tokens can be anything from pebbles and twigs to crafted items.

To use the power, you randomly select one of the tokens. Cleromancy will make you select the lot whose symbol most closely represents your answer. If none of the lots are relevant, a successful cleromancy will yield the blank lot. To succeed, make a concentration check with a DC of 10, +2 per non-blank token in the draw. On a failure, a random token is drawn.

The two most common ways to use this power is to identify a person or group of people who most closely answers the question, or to find under what divinity's or spirit's influence the answer lies.

Anwulf casts the runes to determine the fate of his lost father, putting tokens for Thor, Odin, Heimdal, and Tyr in the jar. The GM knows his father is involved in an intrigue. Anwulf successfully reads the runes and finds that the relevant god is Heimdall as the god of watchmen. Had Loki been in the lot, this token would have been the most meaningful.

Creature Image

Caster
Level
Maximum Creature
Image Size
1-2 Small
3-5 Medium

Illusion (figment)
Level mesmerist 2, psychic 2, sorcerer/wizard 2, spiritualist 2
Components V, S, F (a tooth)
Cast Time 1 standard action
Range medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level)
Effect visual figment of one creature.
Duration concentration + 1 round/level (D)
Saving Throw Will disbelief
Spell Resistance no

Creates a visual illusion of a single creature, as visualized by the caster. The figment includes visual, auditory, olfactory, and thermal elements, including intelligible speech. The maximum size of the illusory creature depends on caster level, see the attached table.

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

Deflect Blow

Abjuration
Level: cleric 1, magus 1, sorcerer/wizard 1, witch 1
Components: S
Cast Time: 1 immediate action
Range: personal
Target: you
Duration: instantaneous

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

Cast this spell when an attack hits you. It confers a +4 Dodge bonus to AC against that one attack only, which can turn it into a miss.

Fumble

Enchantment (Compulsion) (Mind-Affecting)
Level: bard 1, magus 1, sorcerer/wizard 1, witch 1
Components: V, S
Cast Time: 1 standard action
Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Target: One creature.
Duration: Instantaneous
Save: Will negates
Spell Resistance: 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. A flying or swimming creature first takes a full move downwards, then falls prone if it hits the ground or bottom.
  • Blunders and triggers an attack of opportunity from all creatures threatening it
  • 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 gear or a nearby terrain feature such as a bush. Takes a standard action to clear.

Ignite

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

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.

Mage Armor

This spell has a personal range.

Mist of Deceit

Illusion (Pattern) (Mind-Affecting)
Level: Sorcerer/Wizard 4, Witch 3
Components: V, S
Cast Time: 1 standard action
Range: Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft. level)
Effect: Fog spreads in 20-ft. radius, 20 ft. high
Duration: 1 round/level
Save: Will partial (see text)
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.
