It inflicts 4d6 Fire damage on the poor, unfortunate
target. Anything flammable is also ignited.

The caster causes the air around the target to
freeze by pointing a burst of snow and ice at the

Ice damage. The cold also reduces the target's Speed
stat by 1 point for 1d4 rounds.

Small green spheres circle the target, and then converge on the target's head. A green beam extends from the caster's head to the target's head, and the caster steals 4d6 MP.

Modifier: -10%

Tongues
Cost: 10 MP
Duration: (1d6 + MAG/3) hours
The caster gains the ability to speak any language he knows of.

Duration: (1d6 + MAG/3) rounds
Modifier: -20%
The target is surrounded by a puff of green smoke and after the smoke clears, there's a (Magic% - 20)% chance that the target is a toad.

Empathy
Cost: 15 MP
Duration: (1d8 + MAG/3) rounds
Modifier: -20
This subtle spell gives the caster a sudden link to the victim's emotional condition. From levels 1- 10, this only entails the basic feelings, such as Hate, Love, Jealousy, and so on. From levels 21-50, the understanding gained by the caster is more precise, allowing for the emotions behind the basics to be felt: Inadequacy spawning Hate, etc. Finally, from levels 51 and onward, the caster goes the next step: they can affect the victim's emotional state to a limited extent, changing it in some minor and connected way, such as from Jealousy to Hate, or from Love to Anxiety. The chance of success is (Magic% - 20)% but if the GM decides that the target's emotion is particularly strong, there is an equal chance that the mage will "acquire" the emotion, which could have disastrous results. The target won't know that he's the target unless he rolls an awareness check or has some magic shielding on (e.g. a magic helmet, a Shell spell, etc.).
Poison 2 (Bio 2)

Drain
Cost: 20 MP
The target is surrounded by red spheres that converge on its body and a red beam extends from its body to the caster's body. Up to 5d6 HP may be siphoned in this way, but the mage may not go above max HP, so damage could be lower than expected.
Fire 3
Cost: 52 MP

Ice 3

the shards that fly off the shattered object. Artifacts don't shatter.

Curse
Cost: 50 MP
Duration: (1d8 + MAG/3) rounds
Prerequisite: Scare
The target is surrounded by a pitch black aura that causes all stats (STR, AGI, VIT, WIS, WP, and SPD) to drop to half of their normal value. After the spell wears off, the target will feel very energetic for1d4 rounds and very little can stop them (it's like a Berserker Rage, but with full mental abilities).

Statues take no damage, but gain no exp, make no actions, etc. Stone will not reverse overtime, but may be removed using Soft or Remedy. Stone characters are a real burden to adventurers who
carry their petrified comrade to a place of healing, and a Shatter spell or a big heavy weapon (like a Great Axe or 20-pound Maul) may shatter a stoned character. The resistance to shattering is (Level/2) +(STR/2) + (VIT/2). Shattering may only be reversed
by a powerful White Wizard or Sage using Life 2, or any White Wizard or Sage using Rebirth.
Telepathy
Cost: 40 MP
Duration: (1d8 + MAG/3) rounds
Prerequisite: Empathy
The caster is capable of reading other peoples' thoughts and using his own mind to 'speak' to another person mentally. The reactions of other people vary greatly from fear to intrigue to anger, so the caster should be careful.

Anyone with moderate magical ability or mental enhancement will immediately notice the telepathic occurrences, and may even trace it back to its source.

The target is surrounded by tiny golden globes that converge on its head and body, and a pure golden energy beam extends towards the caster. The beam allows the mage to steal up to 7d6 HP and 5d6 MP. The mage may not exceed his maximums, so damage may not be as high as it should be.
Level 8
Break
Cost: 100 MP
Prerequisites: Earth 3, Stone, Shatter
The ground starts to shake with the force of a massive quake, and suddenly a flurry of stones begins to surround the target and encase it in solid rock!
