Song spell #12 Earl Sweatshirt - Riot!

 Riot!

Level: Beginner

Appearance: Creates a pulsating gathering cloud of gray vapor that spreads out in a wide radius. The smoke when breathed in irritates orifices causing mucus and tears as well as saliva to dribble out. Amidst the fog, those affected see exaggerated movement and silhouettes that aren’t there. There is also a pulsating sound that permeates everywhere through the fog that pops everyone’s ears and drones in and out. 

Effect: Riot will cause all affected to lose turn order and roll to see who they are attacking regardless of allegiance. The spell can be used directionally, and it is best for the caster to have an escape plan as it very easily affects them as well if they can’t focus it and it billows out suddenly. The vapor creates a new requirement to roll initiative. All affected must also do something combative and cannot defer. Riot is known as a dangerous spell due to its easy access but difficulty to control, as many novices get caught in the vapor rather easily. 

Duration: an entire combat round

Range: Radius of effect is 15 yds that spreads to that point overtime.

Type: Illusion

This song is a good example of two conflicting emotions that play off each other. The song has a calming and nostalgic quality that is slightly skewed by a sense of dread and the unknown. The song has an off kilter sound that contributes to this as well as the vocal samples. This is a great song to sit and listen to while thinking.

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 #44 Cake - The distance

Image
 The distance Level: Intermediate Appearance: The caster visibly has more drag control and trajectory accuracy of any projectile based magic. Effect: The distance allows the caster to have more predictable control of projectile magic. The spell specifically makes projectiles work more in line with the distance variable of travel, making the spell more likely to hit its mark. This grants a bonus to any spell rolls if used premptively, which is the only way this meta spell can be used.  Duration: The duration of the spell that the distance has been cast on. Range: Caster range Type: Meta  This is a very energetic song with an excellent bassline and guitar riff. I like the lyrics of this song. They are unconventional for the situation that they are describing.
