GSIV SPELLS: Sorcerers

Winking Eye

Simu Explains:

Hybrid spell users who rely on both the Elemental and Spiritual Spheres, Sorcerers concentrate on spells of disruption and destruction. Their primary spells deal with the annihilation of animate and inanimate matter. While this is a difficult profession to learn early on, Sorcerers have the potential to be extremely powerful and deadly. They can not, however, learn as many utility and defensive spells as do Wizards or Clerics.

Spheres: Spiritual, Elemental 
Prime stats: Aura, Wisdom 
Mana stats: Aura, Wisdom 
Spell Circles: Minor Elemental, Minor Spiritual, Sorcerer Base


Sorcerer Circle
Spell & Mneumonic	Spell#	Type	Duration	Mana	Effect
Blood Burst BLOODBURST	701	Attack	Immediate	1mp	When cast upon a healthy target (which has failed its warding), this will result in bleeding of at least 5/rounds from the neck, and will do an equivalent amount of damage with the cast. Each successive casting will increase the bleeding by "opening the floodgates."
Mana Disruption MANADISRUPT	702	Attack	Immediate	2mp	Casting Mana Disruption at a target causes it to suffer bone and tissue damage as if it had fallen a long distance. The greater the target fails it spirit warding failure, the greater the damage. There is additional internal damage done (hidden), which will be relative to the severity of the injury.
Corrupt Essence CESSENCE	703	Attack	15secs	3mp	This spell corrupts the target's connection to its essence resources, preventing it from casting spells, but not from prepping them. This spell is extremely hard to resist
Phase PHASE	704	Utility	Immediate	4mp	This will momentarily cause an object to "fade" from existence, allowing the Sorcerer to pass through it briefly. This allows the caster to pass through most forms of doors, reach into closed containers and possibly remove the contents, and in some cases will allow passage through magical portals.
Disintegrate DISINTEGRATE	705	Attack	Immediate	5mp	When the target fails its warding this spell causes the target's flesh to literally melt away, causing some very serious wounds on higher rolls. The spell also works on beings who have no flesh to disintegrate, melting away their ethereal form. Casting from STANCE OFFENSIVE increases the damage done by Disintegrate
Mind Jolt MINDJOLT	706	Attack	1 sec per warding failure	6mp	Casting Mind Jolt at a target causes its brain to be jolted by a minor electrical shock, whose phase is in opposition to the synaptic network communication, causing the target to be stunned.
Eye Spy EYESPY	707	Attack	30 secs per level, max. 10 minutes	7mp	One of the caster's eyes grows tiny batlike wings and is able to fly away from the caster. The caster has complete control over the eye and will be able to see through it. The eye is controlled similarly to the Call Familiar spell via the TELL command. Usage
Limb Disruption LIMBDISRUPT	708	Bonus	Immediate	8mp	A most painful spell: Depending on the warding failure, Limb Disruption can cause one of the target's limbs to break and/or explode. The caster may hit a target's right or left hand, arm, or leg.
Quake QUAKE	709	Attack	Immediate	9mp	A minor quake is caused in the caster's location, and all adjacent rooms.
Energy Maelstrom MAELSTROM	710	Attack	Variable	10mp	Maelstrom gives a Sorcerer the ability to summon dark energy to swirl around him or her, creating a fierce storm. It is a potent spell, which can be very dangerous to bystanders.
Pain Infliction PAIN	711	Attack	Immediate	11mp	Target takes between 20% and 35% of total health in damage on successful warding failures. More extreme successes may induce a Roundtime (RT) in the target.
Cloak of Shadows SHADOWS	712	Defense/Attack	600 secs +60 secs for every Sorcerer spells known	12mp	Cloak of Shadows does two things. Firstly it acts as a defense. The second benefit of this spell is its retribution effect. More info
Nightmare NIGHTMARE	713	Attack	1 sec per warding failure, max 90 secs	13mp	Each person and creature has its own specific worst nightmare, which the Sorcerer is able to summon with this spell.
Scroll Infusion	714	Utility	***	14mp	With this spell, Sorcerers are able to utilize magical artifacts to fully unlock the magic found within scrolls.
Curse CURSE	715	Attack	Variable	15mp	There are six known curses at the disposal of all Sorcerers. More Info
Disease DISEASE	716	Attack	Variable	16mp	This spell can inflict an extremely debilitating disease on the target based on how badly the spirit warding has failed.
Evil Eye EVILEYE	717	Attack	Variable	17mp	They say the eyes are the window to the soul. Certainly the target of this spell will believe this to be the case, as the Sorcerer summons the power to instill fear into the very root of the target's being.
Torment TORMENT	718	Attack	***	18mp	This spell allows a Sorcerer to summon a demonic force to do battle with the target of the spell. The demonic force, however, seeks some source for its rage and will turn on its summoner if it cannot successfully attack its target.
Dark Catalyst DARKCAT	719	Attack	Immediate	19mp	Targets of this spell will have their magical energy, be it elemental or spiritual, ripped from them and converted into raw force which will damage them in the form of heat, cold, electricity, and/or impact crits. More Info
Implosion IMPLOSION	720	Attack	Immediate	20mp	This spell will destroy all of the air around the target(s) in a specific area, subjecting them to 'vacuum' injuries.
Minor Summoning MSUMMON	725	Utility	***	25mp	Minor and relatively weak, but chaotic, creatures from a demonic plane will be able to be summoned with this spell.
Animate Dead ANIMATEDEAD	730	Attack	Immediate - Not yet implemented	30mp	A Sorcerer is able to animate a recently deceased creature with this spell. Some creatures will retain a large portion of the knowledge they had while they were alive and the skilled Sorcerer will be able to command those creatures to use this knowledge. This spell is enhanced by training in the Sorcerous Lore, Necromancy skill.
Ensorcell ENSORCELL	735	**	Not yet implemented	35mp	Nothing is yet known about this spell.
Unnamed	740	**	Not yet implemented	40mp	Nothing is yet known about this spell.
Demonic Control	750	Variable	Not yet implemented	50mp	This spell will allow the caster to summon specific, unique demons to (hopefully) do the caster's bidding. Woe to the caster who loses control of this type of demon. The immediate effects would most likely include something extremely unpleasant.
