Let's make a Random Spell List.
« on: September 01, 2016, 05:45:23 pm »

Considering my current method of selecting a bunch of random lists online and smashing them together to create a randomized spell list for my You are a Wizard game, I had the thought of putting it to the forum to construct a spell list.

There is one rule for posting in this thread.  Only one spell per post.  You get that?  Only one spell per post. (And please don't doublepost unless the thread has been halted for a day for some reason)  I'm going to be trying to cherry pick through the suggestions to create a balanced list every 10 pages on 25ppp, and even with conversation posts, that'll likely be over one hundred and fifty spells per spell picking.  Any posts with more than one will automatically be skipped.  Is it lazy?  Probably.  Would sorting through all of it take up more time than I am willing to spend?  Yep.

After the first round of selection, I'll be putting up a google doc in this post containing the selected ones, so anyone wanting to use it for whatever reason they wish has the ability to use it.

Fist: Punch hard enough to cause an enormous magical explosion that causes massive damage. You will automatically announce that you are casting this spell before actually doing it.

I figure at some point, you're just gonna run outta fucks to give and just off yourself whenever you get hurt at all. It's not like there's any downsides to it. Hangover? Suicide will fix that. Stubbed your toe? Suicide. Headache? Suicide. Papercut? Suicide.

Shape Change: This powerful spell allows the caster to warp the world to turn a basic geometric shape in the nearby landscape into a different shape.  The rough dimension of the shape need to be kept, so a circular belt around a person's waist could be made square and fall off or the crenelated top of a castle wall could be made flat, exposing the defenders behind it.

The effect does not end and anything nearby will warp around the new shape so it now appears natural.

The types of shapes that can be altered grows with the level of the caster:

- Single lines, like flattening the jagged teeth of a dragon or twisting up a railing to trap someone

- Flat two dimensional shapes, like making a round dish square or an archway into an upside down triangle doorway.

- Three dimensional shapes, like turning a circular tower into a pyramid or a relatively strait tunnel into a loop.
