Song spell #7, Los Lobos - Saint behind the glass

Saint Behind The Glass

Level: Intermediate

Appearance: A beautiful arpeggiating string arrangement plays as the caster summons the saint behind the glass. The caster can only see them in reflection on glass or incarnate within mirrors. The saint has a glowing mantle of silk and a beautiful yet almost featureless face. They are completely silent unless the caster is in harm’s way. If there is harm the beautiful strings play a wonderful song, and the source of danger will be disarmed by glowing yellow light.

Effect: Saint behind the glass when cast will save the caster from one situation where the caster is in danger, only out of combat. If the saint is cast in combat, then you gain plus one dice for the round for non-combative rolls. This spell is best used preemptively, and the saint will choose the first situation of danger whether it is combat or not. 

Duration: Until the Saint has defended the caster from one dangerous situation

Range: Summoned by caster, no range required

Type: Evocation

This song is associated with my early childhood. The saint behind the glass is always such a wonderful song, and I find myself never skipping it. The beautiful strings and singers voice makes this one of the most serene songs I have ever listened to.

Song Spell #49 Studio Jams #1 - I Wish

Image
 I wish Level: Legendary Appearance: The caster will tentatively state a desire of their own and it will appear before the caster.  Effect: The caster may make a wish, as long as it doesn’t physically change the caster themselves in terms of physiology and appearance. Before the caster makes said wish by enacting the spell, they will be transported into an extraordinary dimension where they must vouch for their wish. Time dilates heavily in this dimension, taking 10 minutes in reality while taking days in the dimension. Inside this dimension you must speak to a tribunal of judges who will ask what the caster requests and the caster must state their case. If you flounder or don’t make your intentions clear, proceedings can take years to conduct, which will begin to wear on your psyche, causing you to mentally age when you leave this strange place. Be careful with the tribunal when you want your wish to affect someone of your choice. They will summarize that person’s entire life...
