Skill Rules & Full Description
Rank 2:
Spell Verbal: From the Unending Pits of Hell I...
- ...Scourge Your Hands. 5 Power Points Instant.
- This spell does 8 points of damage to the character with the effect listed below depending on the Demonologists Aspect. Additionally, the character must drop whatever is in their hands. They may pick up the item immediately after they drop the items. This is not a charm effect
- Fire: 10 Magic Fire
- Ice: 10 Magic Ice
- Undeath: 10 Magic Rot*
- Shadow: 10 Magic Ghost
- ...Summon a Demonling. 5 Power Points 1 Hour, Special.
- This spell will summon a Demonling of the appropriate type depending on the Demonologists Aspect. The character must be in their Death Count for the spell to affect them; if cast upon an undead character or a character who is not at least Bleeding to Death, the spell has no effect and the Power Points are wasted. At the end of the character’s Death Count, their soul is sacrificed to Hell and a Demonling will emerge from the dead character’s body. The character’s soul spends a short time in Hell where it is tormented by the denizens of Hell. If the character is healed before the end of their Death Count, the spell ends and the summoning fails. Dispel magic will not stop the spell.
- When the demon is destroyed, banished, or 1 hour passes, then the demon returns to Hell, leaving whatever worldly possessions it had behind. The player may now go to the Healer’s Guild and resurrect. There is no special consequence of their time spent in Hell other than not being able to play, while playing the demon
- ...Command Lesser Demons. 6 Power Points 1 Hour
- This spell will allow the caster to control all Imps, Demonlings, Hellhounds, and Minor Demons in the sound of their voice. This spell will not override a Dominate Demon spell, a Follower of Lights turn ability, or a Servant of Darkness command ability.
- ...Shield my Body from Possession 6 Power Points Latent, Special
- This latent spell will protect the character from being possessed. Once invoked the character cannot be possessed from that character for the remainder of the Tag Cycle.
