Song Spells #2, Casiopea - Time Limit


 Time Limit

Appearance: A flash of light beams from the caster’s hands once, and during the 5 seconds the caster is encased in a mantle of glowing pale-yellow light.

Effect: When cast, declare an action that you intend to do and roll 5 D10s and count them up. If you succeed before 5 actual seconds pass the action will happen without fail. If you fail, then your turn passes. (If you count them up improperly then you don’t succeed as well). This spell can be cast fairly often but cannot be relied upon as some sort of unknown force sometimes judges whether or not the situation needs a climactic countdown. 

Duration: 5 seconds

Range: Caster (means it effects the casters will and doesn’t actual travel out from the caster)

Type: Evocation

Casiopea is a Japanese Jazz funk fusion band that I came across due to youtubes (sometimes) excellent random algorithm. This album has an amazing display of talent. Every element of the band is on top of its game, and it fits right into the niche of J-Jazz. This song especially fits their album cover, an image of two racing cars in fierce competition with each other. Listening to this song I could only imagine a frantic but entertaining situation unfolding in an untimely manner. I highly recommend this album.

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...

Song Spell #48 The Physics House Band - Teratology

Image
 Teratology Level: Advanced Appearance: The caster will point at any target and the target will ripple and tesselate while being pointed at by the caster.  Effect: Teratology determines any sort of defect that the target has, explaining it in simple terms. The spell will psionically relay details of the defect to the caster, spontaneously making the caster aware of potential conditions and how to work around them. The spell  how the defect affects a certain action or aspect of the target rather than simply naming the condition. Duration: Depending on the condition, it takes at most around 30 seconds to explain the condition.  Range: Must be facing the person at most 5 feet away.  Type: Evocation This is such an amazing song. All of the members donate a ferocious musicality to their parts. Wonderful progressive rock happening here with the physics house band.
