Song spell #9, Janelle Monae - Tightrope

 Tightrope

Level: Intermediate

Appearance: The caster will ping two separate points where two glowing bolts of metal will conjure from the casters fingertips and strike the spots where the caster pointed. When they land an ethereal thin rope will suddenly appear between the two points and begin to sway as if caught by wind. When the spell is undone the ethereal rope snaps and fades into thin air, and the two pins disappear in a puff of smoke. 

Effect: The tightrope can be crossed with acrobatic finesse by the caster and their party members. Enemies that pursue find that the rope is ethereal to them meaning they will fall through. The tightrope also cannot be severed as blades and other tools pass through as if it wasn’t there. The tightrope is constantly vibrating, and is supernaturally elastic, meaning those who can cross it can spring up onto faraway surfaces or other tightropes. The bending and dipping of the tightrope can be manipulated by the caster for even further propulsion. 

Duration: Sustained by caster

Range: Line of sight

Type: Evocation

This song is uplifting and energetic to an insane degree. This is a masterpiece of music by Janelle Monae and ever since I heard it back when it came out, I have been in awe of it.

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.
