I'd like to compile a list of some great spell combinations that players have come up with. On that note, please feel free to post up your homemade Advanced Spells. I'll start off with a common one:

TELEKINETIC SCREAM (Advanced) - by Eric Gorman
Category: Advanced
Base Spells: Concussive Wave + Mental Scream
CTN: 21
Speed (Strain): +7 (4)
Range: o’' (5’ Radius)
Duration: Instantaneous
Defense: Avoidance and Discipline
Effect: You augment your telepathic scream with a pulse of telekinetic energy assaulting your foes minds and bodies simultaneously. Make one attack roll and apply the result to all targets. If you surpass the targets avoidance you inflict d6 (Primary) in stamina. If you surpass the targets Discipline you inflict (Primary) damage which ignores natural or worn armor; this part of the spell does not affect spirits, elementals or constructs.

Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 3 and Strain by 1; if you also bypass the targets fortitude you knock them back to the edge of the spell’s radius. Creatures that hit a solid immovable object before reaching the edge of the spell suffer damage as if they had fallen the distance traveled.
Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 3 and Strain by 1 to apply a die bump to damage to the part of the spell that targets avoidance. This adaptation may be applied multiple times.
Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 3 and Strain by 2; if the targets fortitude is surpassed then their clock is pushed by 1d4 ticks.
Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 6 and Speed by 1 to change the range by 30’ (1 target).
Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 2 to increase the range by 30’. This adaptation can be applied multiple times.
Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 4 and Strain by 1 to add a d4 to the part of the spell that attacks discipline. This adaptation may be applied multiple times, each additional time applying a die bump to the damage dice.

Marksman’s Feast (Advanced) - by Eric Gorman
Category: Advanced
Base Spells: Delusions of Grandeur + Halt
CTN: 21
Speed (Strain): +6 (3)
Range: 30' (1 Target)
Duration: Scene (D)
Defense: Discipline
Effect: Your thoughts infiltrate that of your foe, disrupting their ability to focus, or even for a time, to move. For the remainder of the scene your target becomes Distracted and suffer a -1 penalty to all Defenses. Further, starting on the Target’s next action, they may not move for 6 Ticks. If a Target is subject to this power twice within the same Scene, or if remaining still will intrinsically cause him bodily harm (such as under a falling rock), he may perform an Athletics (Re) Action Skill Roll against your Passive Arcanum Value to perform a move action, breaking this component of the spell.

Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 2 and the Strain by 1 to increase the spell’s range by 10’
Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 3 and Strain by 1 to increase the penalty granted by this spell by 1. This Adaptation may be applied multiple times to a penalty of -3.

Erode Adversary (Advanced) - by Eric Gorman

Sarish Binds You
(Advanced) - by Peter Teismann
Category: Advanced
Base Spells: Black Ice + Entangling Webs
CTN: 21
Speed (Strain): +7 (4)
Range: 20' (5' Radius)
Duration: Scene (D)
Defense: Special (See Effect)
Dark strands of web trap you, while the ground seems to shift under your feet, covered with black ice.
Effect: All targets become entangled in a web, and at the same time the surface in the area becomes blanketed in black ice.
All Targets within the spell’s Radius must perform an Athletics (Feat of Strength) (Mi) Action Skill Roll against your Passive Arcanum Value as a Simple skill action to move one half their Pace. Alternatively, an affected Target can hack his way out of the webs with an edged weapon, allowing him to move up to one third his pace as a Complex skill action. But - upon their action, any creature standing within the spell’s radius must perform an Acrobatics or Athletics (Balance) (Qu) Action Skill Roll against your Passive Arcanum Value or fall Prone. If a creature within the spell’s radius uses a Demanding skill action to stand or move through the affected area, they gain a +6 bonus to that Action Skill Roll to not fall prone.
You may only have one area of black ice active at a time. If you create another patch, the previous one dissipates into fine mist and reforms in the new designated area.
Any fire damage instantly destroys all of the webs in the area and deals d4 damage to anyone within the webs. Also, any fire spell with an area of effect and an attack roll surpassing your passive Arcanum value instantly dissipates the patch of black ice in its entirety.
Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 2 to increase the spell’s range by 30’. This Adaptation may be applied multiple times
Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 4 and Speed by 1 to increase the web’s radius to 10’.

And another one, not 100% sure with some effects, so would edit it as comments are made for correction:

Sarish’s Furnace
(Advanced) - by Peter Teismann
Category: Advanced
Base Spells: Blood Boil + Heat Wave
CTN: 20
Speed (Strain): +6 (3)
Range: 0’ (5’ Radius)
Duration: Instant
Defense: Fortitude
You cook the victim from both sides.
Effect: The heat around you increases to that of a forge, while the victim’s blood starts to boil.

Creatures that have not suffered any damage during the scene suffer (Primary) damage, while creatures that have suffered Stamina damage take an additional 2 points of damage. Creatures that have suffered Wound damage take an additional 5 points of damage. All damage dealt by this spell bypasses all AR granted by worn armor.
Additionally any Target you affect loses d4 (Primary) Stamina, with creatures in medium or heavy armor suffering an additional d4.

Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 3, Speed and Strain by 2 to increase the blood boil’s radius to 10’ Radius.
Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 4, and Strain by 1 to add a d4 damage die for boiling blood. This Adaptation may be applied multiple times, each time applying a Die Bump to the damage die.

Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 3, Speed by 2, and Strain by 4 to change the heat into a Sustained spell with a Sustain Speed of 3. The Sustained Effect remains the same as the spell’s primary effect.
Adaptation: Increase the CTN by 2, Speed and Strain by 2 to change the Range to Cone 15’. (can you suddenly make it two different areas?


As Heat Wave is a 10’ radius spell, what happens if you increase blood boil to that rea – do you get a 10’ radius effect for both? Or do you need to have the adaptation expand area to make it a 10’ radius?

Sarish Binds You:
I believe area is 20' (5' Radius) (Smaller of the two)

Yes, copy paste error. And corrected.

Post subject:  Re: Submit your Advanced Spells!

I also adjusted the Sarish Furnace one...any Adaptations apply to the 'whole advanced' spell not each one individually.
