Unlike the lower-level spell, *improved blink* allows the wizard to choose the exact time of his jump, the exact destination, and the orientation or facing of his choosing. For example, a wizard confronted by an enemy fighter could blink just before the fighter attacked, reappearing directly behind his foe for a back attack. If the wizard blinks away from an attack, his enemy automatically misses—but creatures with multiple attacks may be able to reposition themselves for another swing if the wizard blinks to a location within reach.\n If the wizard intends to take any action such as attacking, casting a spell, or using a magical item, he must decide before the round begins if he will do so before or after he blinks. If he acts before he blinks, he may be endangered by an attack before he finishes; he can choose to proceed with his action, hoping that he won’t be hit, or he can abort his action by taking his blink for the round. On the other hand, if the wizard begins his action *after* his blink, the initiative modifier of his attack or spell is added to the time of his blink to determine when he attacks.\n\n *A* blinking *wizard dueling a fighter decides to blink first, when the fighter attacks and then* lightning bolt *the offensive fellow.

Any ferrous metal touched by the wizard must make an item saving throw vs. disintegration (usually a 17 or better on a d20) or be destroyed. Magical arms or armor may apply their bonus to this save, so a sword +3 would gain a +3 to its roll.

Each of the eyes is about the size of a small apple and can see 120 feet (normal vision only) in all directions. In order to report their findings, the eyes must return to the caster’s hand to replay in the caster’s mind everything they have seen during their existence. The eyes are subject to illusions, darkness, fog, and any other factors that would affect the wizard’s ability to receive visual information about his surroundings. The eyes only see as a normal human would—abilities and spell effects including infravision do not alter the eyes’ vision. It only takes the eye one round to replay one hour of recorded images.\n The spell conjures 1d4 eyes, plus 1 eye per caster level. The eyes exist for up to 1 hour per caster level, or until they return to the wizard; after relaying its findings, an eye disappears. Each eye is AC 4, flies by levitation at a rate of 12, and has only 1 hit point—a single hit from any weapon or damaging spell destroys it. A successful *dispel magic* destroys all eyes caught in the area of effect. While the individual eyes are quite fragile, they’re small and difficult to spot, especially in conditions of poor visibility such as darkness, fog, or rain. Of course, if the eye is being sent into darkness, then it’s very possible that it could hit a wall or other similar obstacle and destroy itself.\n When the wizard creates the eyes, he can specify any set of instructions or orders that he wishes, up to 25 words. Any knowledge the wizard possesses is assumed to be known by the eyes as well, so if the wizard knows what a typical Jakallian merchant looks like, the eyes do as well. Sample commands might be, “Surround me at a range of 400 yards and return if you spot any dangerous creatures,” or “Spread out and search the town for Arweth; follow him for three turns, staying out of sight, and then return.” Note that in the first command, the eye only returns if it spots a creature that the wizard would regard as dangerous; a seemingly innocuous peasant that is actually a *shapechanged* dragon wouldn’t trigger the eye’s return. In any event, if an eye is ever more than one mile distant from the wizard, it instantly ceases to exist. However, the wizard’s link with the eye is such that he won’t know if the eye was destroyed or if it just wandered out of range.\n Some command words can be used to abbreviate the directions. For example, “surround me” directs the eyes to form an equally-spaced ring at whatever range is indicated, and then move with the wizard. As eyes return or are destroyed, the rest automatically space themselves to compensate. “Spread out” directs the eyes to move away from the wizard in all directions. Other commands that might be useful include having them form a line in a certain manner, making them move at random within a certain range, or have them follow a certain type of creature.

Note that as ethereal creatures can perceive the physical world here, a character could scout out his surroundings or make good an escape from the safety of the Border Ethereal.\n The wizard and his companions may remain in the Border Ethereal for up to one hour per level; when the spell expires, they return to normal existence, although the wizard can choose to end the spell before its full duration. The wizard also has the option of moving himself or the group from the Border Ethereal into the Deep Ethereal, in which case they remain ethereal when the spell ends. He will have to use this spell again or find another way back in order to return to his home plane.\n The wizard can attempt to use *etherealness* to banish an unwilling subject. He must make a successful attack roll in order to touch him, and the subject receives a saving throw vs. spell to negate the effect. An unwilling subject automatically remains in the Border Ethereal for an amount of time specified by the wizard at the time of the casting, but no more than one hour per caster level.

The *greater sign* has several effects; first of all, it affects a doorway or item that opens (a chest, for instance) as a *wizard lock* spell. If placed in an open corridor or archway to prevent passage, the *greater sign* creates a magical barrier that repels all who try to pass.\n Second, the *greater sign* greatly strengthens the physical structure of any door or item it is placed upon, granting a +6 bonus on any item saving throws and allowing the item or door to ignore 1 point of damage per caster level from any attack. Currently ignore [[@{level-wizard}]] damage. For example, a *greater sign* cast by a 12th-level wizard would reduce the damage of any blow or spell by 12 points, so a fighter armed with a broad sword (maximum damage of 8 points) could never hack through a door protected by the sign.\n Finally, if the protected doorway or item is forced open or destroyed by any means, the sign itself is not only destroyed, but also releases a spell upon the offending creature.

Once magnetized, the object exerts a powerful attractive or repulsive force (caster’s choice) against objects of ferrous metal.

If the creature or object in question is heavier than the magnetized item, the magnetized item does the moving instead. The effective Strength is the “pull” of the magnetism at that range; the size equivalent refers to creature sizes, not weapon sizes. (All human-sized weapons are considered small or tiny for this chart). A character or creature carrying loose metal items or objects such as weapons, shields, helms, buttons, and so on must win an opposed Strength check (see *Player’s Option: Combat & Tactics* for information on opposed ability checks) in order to keep his possessions from being wrenched out of his grasp by the magnetism. Securing a weapon in its sheath, holding an item with both hands, and other precautions may give the character a +2 to +4 to his base ability score, at the DM’s discretion.\n Characters wearing metal armor must attempt an opposed Strength check to ignore the effects of the magnetism. If the character fails his Strength check outright, he loses his footing and flies towards or away from the object at the full rate indicated. He suffers full falling damage based on the speed with which he hits the item—1d6 for every 10 feet of the movement rate, or half that damage if he is repelled and simply thrown back onto the ground. If the character passes his Strength check but is beaten by the magnetism roll, he is moved one foot for each point he lost by. Again, some precautions or assistance may help iron-wearing characters in their Strength checks. For monsters, compare the creature’s size to the effective size of magnetism.\n An armored character who is stuck to a surface or object loses any Dexterity adjustments to AC and cannot make any physical attacks. He can try to wriggle out of his armor and free himself, employ a magical item, or use psionic powers if he has any at his disposal.\n\n *Lodestone the fighter is charging a wizard when the dastardly felon magnetizes a sizable boulder about 30 feet from Lodestone’s present position. Lodestone carries a long sword, a shield, and wears plate mail; he has a Strength of 17. First, he checks to see if he holds onto his sword and shield, making two opposed Strength rolls. He loses the shield, but keeps hold of his sword. Now the DM checks to see if Lodestone resists the drag on his armor. At 30 feet, the magnetism has a Strength of 18. Lodestone rolls a 6, but the magnetism roll is a 12. Even though both Lodestone and the magnetism made their Strength rolls, the magnetism roll is higher than Lodestone’s roll and does not go over its target Strength score. As a result, Lodestone is dragged 6 feet closer to it. Next round, Lodestone tries again and blows his roll altogether, moving a full 10 feet closer. Now only 14 feet from the boulder, the magnetism’s Strength is effectively a 20, which means Lodestone is in big trouble. If he blows his roll again the next round, he’ll go flying into the boulder at a rate of 20 feet/round, which will inflict 2d6 points of damage.*\n\n If a creature wins its Strength check, it can ignore the spell’s effects and move out of the zone of influence normally.\n *Sirellyn’s superior magnetism* also affects the passage of iron or steel missiles, such as steel-headed arrows or quarrels. Any missile that passes through the zone of influence suffers an attack penalty equal to the movement at the range indicated. For example, if the path of an arrow brings it within 40 feet of a magnetized object, the attack suffers a –5 penalty. Finally, it is possible for the casting wizard to be affected by this spell as well.

There are two general uses for *persistence*: to use a personal spell effect as needed up to the maximum duration of the *persistence* itself, or to prepare an instantaneous spell and hold it ready until the caster wishes to use it.\n **A. Personal effect.** Any spell that augments the wizard’s natural abilities—*detect magic*, *protection from evil*, *jump*, *infravision*, *fly*, *wraithform*, or other caster-affecting spells—can be made persistent by use of this spell. The wizard casts *persistence* and then immediately follows with the desired spell. Instead of taking effect immediately, the magic of the *persistence* holds it ready for use by a simple act of will. The wizard can then “turn on” or “turn off” the girded spell as often as he likes over the course of the duration of the *persistence*. The duration of the girded spell only runs while the spell is active, so a 15th-level wizard who makes a *fly* spell persistent will be able to use 1d6+15 turns of flight (the normal duration of *fly*) over the next 15 days (the duration of the *persistence*) as he sees fit.\n This is especially useful because it allows the wizard to cast the girded spell and the *persistence* and have the girded spell’s effects available while he then memorizes another spell in place of the spell made persistent. It is also useful because the girded spell can be activated instantly by an act of will. The main difference between this spell and *contingency* lies in the fact that a persistent spell may be invoked several times (up to the limit of its normal duration) while a *contingency* functions once only.\n **B. Held spell.** Spells that have an instantaneous effect, such as most attack spells and some movement spells like *teleport* or *dimension door*, can be rendered persistent as well. The held spell may be activated or discharged at any time during the duration of the *persistence*, but its magic is then exhausted as if it had been cast normally. This resembles the effect of a *contingency* spell, but the effect has no predefined conditions and simply occurs when the caster wills it to.\n Damaging or offensive spells that have a duration (for example, *flaming sphere* or *wall of fire*) cannot be rendered persistent.

The caster can also ignore most magical effects such as spells, magical devices, and innate spell abilities of less than 8th level.\n In game terms, the character suffers only 1 point of damage from any type S or type P attack, plus any magical adjustment for the weapon.

Against bludgeoning weapons, the wizard only suffers half the normal damage. *Cause wound* spells always inflict minimum damage against a wizard protected by this spell.

He also gains a +4 bonus to saving throws vs. petrification attacks.\n While the *heart of stone* is quite powerful, it has limitations. First of all, determined physical attack can eventually destroy the wizard despite his unnatural resistance to injury—a mob of angry peasants with hatchets and spears can finish him off 1 point at a time if that’s what it takes. Second, the *heart* confers no protection against other attack forms, such as fire, electricity, cold, acid, and so on, although any bleeding caused by a burn is ignored. *Disintegration* effects also affect the caster. Most importantly, the caster loses the ability to naturally recover from injury and no longer regains lost hit points with the passage of time. Healing spells, potions and items are reduced to their minimum effect, so a *cure serious wounds* (2d8+1 hit points restored) would only return 3 hit points to a wizard protected by *heart of stone*. However, *limited wish* or *wish* can be used to restore 1 hit point per level of caster or all but 1d4 hit points, respectively.\n In addition to these disadvantages, *heart of stone* also renders the caster vulnerable in one other way: his own real heart can be destroyed, instantly slaying him. Naturally, the caster will want to take steps to hide and protect his true heart to prevent this from happening. The living heart continues to beat for the duration of the spell but requires no special receptacle or facilities to protect it—the caster could leave it lying on the floor, if he wished.\n The *heart of stone* cannot be dispelled, although a more powerful negation magic such as *Mordenkainen’s disjunction* can bring the spell to an end. *Stone to flesh* also undoes the magic of the *heart of stone*.

While the spell is in effect, the caster can only be injured by blunt weapons of +3 or better value, or monsters of 8+3 Hit Dice or more. Slashing weapons, falling, crushing, and constriction attacks of all types are completely unable to harm the caster, although an attack may knock him off-balance or pin him beneath tons of debris. Spells or attacks that affect the subject’s physiology or respiration—for example, poison, *cloudkill*, *enfeeblement*, *contagion*, or *pain touch*—fail completely, since the caster *has* no physiology or respiration while the spell is in effect. Also, spells that have weight limits should be applied to the wizard as if he weighed over 3,000 pounds. The wizard ignores electrical attacks and saves at +4 against fire attacks. If he saves, he takes quarter damage; if not, he takes half damage. If hit with a *rod of smiting*, he takes 2d8+6 points of damage unless the attacker rolls a natural 20. If this occurs, then the damage is doubled.\n In addition to the natural immunities of an *iron body*, the wizard enjoys powerful offensive abilities. His Strength score is raised to 20 (+3 to attack rolls, +8 damage) for the duration of the spell, and he can punch or bludgeon his enemies twice per round for 1d4 points of damage per blow, plus his Strength bonus. Unfortunately, his movement becomes slow and awkward, so he is reduced to a move of 3 and suffers a –2 penalty to his initiative rolls (or a reduction of his base phase by one step, in *Player’s Option: Combat & Tactics*). Most importantly, the wizard’s clumsiness and lack of breath prevent him from casting any spells while the *iron body* is in effect.\n *Iron body* may create additional hazards for the wizard as the DM deems appropriate. For example, rust monsters are extremely dangerous to a wizard using this spell. *Heat metal* spells inflict double damage to the caster. And, naturally, the wizard sinks like a stone in water—although he could survive the crushing pressure and lack of air at the bottom of the ocean—at least until the spell expired.

It allows the wizard to selectively destroy, alter, or implant memories in the subject creature as he sees fit. He can completely reprogram a character, inventing a new persona, a new alignment, and assigning a new class as he sees fit. Only sentient beings can be affected; if the subject is not human, humanoid, or demihuman, he gains a +4 bonus on his saving throw.\n As described above, *programmed amnesia* can be used to achieve several different effects.

Memory implant.** The caster can create false memories in the subject’s mind as he sees fit. Imaginary friends, events that didn’t really take place, betrayals by people the subject regards as his friends, or the friendship of an enemy could all be implanted in the subject’s mind.}}{{c3-2=**C. Skill erasure.** The subject can be made to forget any or all class-based skills or proficiencies, including all or part of his THAC0 (it resets to 20), thief abilities, spellcasting, turning undead, or any other ability that stems from knowledge. About the only characteristics that can’t be affected by this usage of Rheizom’s *programmed amnesia* are hit points, saving throws, and ability scores. A character’s native language cannot be erased, either.}}{{c4-2=**D. Persona erasure.** Combining the effects of a skill erasure and a memory erasure, this leaves the subject as a clean slate. Only his ability scores, hit points, saving throws, and native language remain. The character may assume any class or alignment available, beginning as a 1st-level character just as if he had decided to dual-class. (Even demihumans can dual-class in this fashion, since they forget all skills of their previous class.)}}{{c5-2=**E. Persona implant.** By erasing the existing personality and implanting a false set of memories, the wizard can build a new persona for the mind-wiped character. In effect, *he* can decide what class, alignment, and personality the subject will assume after his persona erasure. If the new persona is an adventurer, the character dual-classes, as described above.}}{{c6-2=**F. Programmed erasure.** The subject can be programmed to suffer a memory, skill, or persona erasure when a certain event takes place. For example, the wizard could set the subject to be wiped clean as a slate when the subject receives a coded message or arrives at some destination. Optionally, the wizard can decide to have an erasure partially or totally lifted when the programmed condition comes to pass.}}{{effects2= The casting time of this spell varies according to what effects the wizard wishes to impose on the subject. To cast just one of the listed effects, the wizard must spend two days secluded away from any distractions—a personal laboratory is a good example of a secluded place. In between the intense eight-hour casting sessions, the wizard can sleep and eat in the area he chose to seclude himself in. If the wizard breaks his seclusion for any reason, the spell is lost. Also, for every effect over the first, another day (with its eight-hour intense casting period) must be spent in seclusion.\n The wizard must be able to see the spell’s subject. At the end of each day of casting, the subject makes a saving throw vs. spell to negate the effect.\n *Programmed amnesia* is normally permanent, unless the wizard cares to specify a set of conditions or parameters that will end the effect (see F, above). Its effects can only be undone by a *restoration* or *wish* spell, or by successful use of the psionic science psychic surgery. A character who picks up new skills or class abilities while amnesiac must make a saving throw vs. spell when his own real memories return; if he fails, the skills he learned as an amnesiac are gone forever, replaced by his former abilities, but if he succeeds he retains any new skills, and may even choose to continue in his new class as a dual-classed character. Dungeon Masters should keep in mind that an amnesiac character should still meet the new class’s full prerequisites before he can become that class.\n Obviously, this is a very powerful spell, and the DM should very carefully examine a PC’s use of this magic. Dungeon Masters, take note—there are dozens of excellent plot vehicles hiding here if an NPC wizard uses this on a player character! Also, be aware that destroying a creature’s personality and replacing it with one more amenable to the wizard’s designs is never a good act.' +}; +wiz9['Sphere of Ultimate Destruction'] = { + 'level': '9', + 'school': 'Conjuration/Summoning, Dimension', + 'range': '[[5*[[@{level-wizard}]] ]] yards', + 'duration': '[[@{level-wizard}]] rounds', + 'aoe': 'Creates a sphere', + 'components': 'V, S, M', + 'cast-time': '9', + 'saving-throw': 'Special', + 'subtlety': '+5', + 'sensory': 'Small visual', + 'knockdown': 'None', + 'crit-size': 'None', + 'materials': 'A dark crystal ball that has been on the Ethereal Plane and that can be comfortably held in two hands.', + 'reference': 'p. 159', + 'book': 'Player\'s Option: Spells & Magic', + 'damage': '', + 'damage-type': '', + 'healing': '', + 'effect': 'This awful spell brings into existence a short-lived *sphere of annihilation* (as described in Appendix 3 of the *DMG*).

The *sphere* appears anywhere in the spell’s range and moves up to 15 feet per round as the wizard directs. If the wizard attempts to bring the *sphere* into contact with a living creature, the potential victim gains a saving throw vs. breath weapon to dodge aside, but a victim who is unaware of the *sphere’s* appearance or unable to move is destroyed without a saving throw.\n Once conjured, the *sphere of ultimate destruction* may not move exactly as the caster wishes. The wizard has a 75% chance to control it, plus 1% per point of Intelligence over 12 and 3% for each point over 15. In other words, a wizard with an Intelligence of 18 would gain a +12% bonus to his chance to control the *sphere*. If the wizard fails to control the *sphere* in any given round, it automatically moves directly towards him at its maximum speed of 15 feet per round.

If the wizard blinks away from an attack, his enemy automatically misses—but creatures with multiple attacks may be able to reposition themselves for another swing if the wizard blinks to a location within reach.\n If the wizard intends to take any action such as attacking, casting a spell, or using a magical item, he must decide before the round begins if he will do so before or after he blinks.

In order to report their findings, the eyes must return to the caster’s hand to replay in the caster’s mind everything they have seen during their existence. The eyes are subject to illusions, darkness, fog, and any other factors that would affect the wizard’s ability to receive visual information about his surroundings. The eyes only see as a normal human would—abilities and spell effects including infravision do not alter the eyes’ vision. It only takes the eye one round to replay one hour of recorded images.\n The spell conjures 1d4 eyes, plus 1 eye per caster level. The eyes exist for up to 1 hour per caster level, or until they return to the wizard; after relaying its findings, an eye disappears. Each eye is AC 4, flies by levitation at a rate of 12, and has only 1 hit point—a single hit from any weapon or damaging spell destroys it. A successful *dispel magic* destroys all eyes caught in the area of effect. While the individual eyes are quite fragile, they’re small and difficult to spot, especially in conditions of poor visibility such as darkness, fog, or rain. Of course, if the eye is being sent into darkness, then it’s very possible that it could hit a wall or other similar obstacle and destroy itself.\n When the wizard creates the eyes, he can specify any set of instructions or orders that he wishes, up to 25 words. Any knowledge the wizard possesses is assumed to be known by the eyes as well, so if the wizard knows what a typical Jakallian merchant looks like, the eyes do as well. Sample commands might be, “Surround me at a range of 400 yards and return if you spot any dangerous creatures,” or “Spread out and search the town for Arweth; follow him for three turns, staying out of sight, and then return.” Note that in the first command, the eye only returns if it spots a creature that the wizard would regard as dangerous; a seemingly innocuous peasant that is actually a *shapechanged* dragon wouldn’t trigger the eye’s return. In any event, if an eye is ever more than one mile distant from the wizard, it instantly ceases to exist. However, the wizard’s link with the eye is such that he won’t know if the eye was destroyed or if it just wandered out of range.\n Some command words can be used to abbreviate the directions. For example, “surround me” directs the eyes to form an equally-spaced ring at whatever range is indicated, and then move with the wizard. As eyes return or are destroyed, the rest automatically space themselves to compensate. “Spread out” directs the eyes to move away from the wizard in all directions. Other commands that might be useful include having them form a line in a certain manner, making them move at random within a certain range, or have them follow a certain type of creature.

If the creature or object in question is heavier than the magnetized item, the magnetized item does the moving instead. The effective Strength is the “pull” of the magnetism at that range; the size equivalent refers to creature sizes, not weapon sizes. (All human-sized weapons are considered small or tiny for this chart). A character or creature carrying loose metal items or objects such as weapons, shields, helms, buttons, and so on must win an opposed Strength check (see *Player’s Option: Combat & Tactics* for information on opposed ability checks) in order to keep his possessions from being wrenched out of his grasp by the magnetism. Securing a weapon in its sheath, holding an item with both hands, and other precautions may give the character a +2 to +4 to his base ability score, at the DM’s discretion.\n Characters wearing metal armor must attempt an opposed Strength check to ignore the effects of the magnetism. If the character fails his Strength check outright, he loses his footing and flies towards or away from the object at the full rate indicated. He suffers full falling damage based on the speed with which he hits the item—1d6 for every 10 feet of the movement rate, or half that damage if he is repelled and simply thrown back onto the ground. If the character passes his Strength check but is beaten by the magnetism roll, he is moved one foot for each point he lost by. Again, some precautions or assistance may help iron-wearing characters in their Strength checks. For monsters, compare the creature’s size to the effective size of magnetism.\n An armored character who is stuck to a surface or object loses any Dexterity adjustments to AC and cannot make any physical attacks. He can try to wriggle out of his armor and free himself, employ a magical item, or use psionic powers if he has any at his disposal.\n\n *Lodestone the fighter is charging a wizard when the dastardly felon magnetizes a sizable boulder about 30 feet from Lodestone’s present position. Lodestone carries a long sword, a shield, and wears plate mail; he has a Strength of 17. First, he checks to see if he holds onto his sword and shield, making two opposed Strength rolls. He loses the shield, but keeps hold of his sword. Now the DM checks to see if Lodestone resists the drag on his armor. At 30 feet, the magnetism has a Strength of 18. Lodestone rolls a 6, but the magnetism roll is a 12. Even though both Lodestone and the magnetism made their Strength rolls, the magnetism roll is higher than Lodestone’s roll and does not go over its target Strength score. As a result, Lodestone is dragged 6 feet closer to it. Next round, Lodestone tries again and blows his roll altogether, moving a full 10 feet closer. Now only 14 feet from the boulder, the magnetism’s Strength is effectively a 20, which means Lodestone is in big trouble. If he blows his roll again the next round, he’ll go flying into the boulder at a rate of 20 feet/round, which will inflict 2d6 points of damage.*\n\n If a creature wins its Strength check, it can ignore the spell’s effects and move out of the zone of influence normally.\n *Sirellyn’s superior magnetism* also affects the passage of iron or steel missiles, such as steel-headed arrows or quarrels. Any missile that passes through the zone of influence suffers an attack penalty equal to the movement at the range indicated. For example, if the path of an arrow brings it within 40 feet of a magnetized object, the attack suffers a –5 penalty.

It is also useful because the girded spell can be activated instantly by an act of will. The main difference between this spell and *contingency* lies in the fact that a persistent spell may be invoked several times (up to the limit of its normal duration) while a *contingency* functions once only.\n **B. Held spell.** Spells that have an instantaneous effect, such as most attack spells and some movement spells like *teleport* or *dimension door*, can be rendered persistent as well. The held spell may be activated or discharged at any time during the duration of the *persistence*, but its magic is then exhausted as if it had been cast normally. This resembles the effect of a *contingency* spell, but the effect has no predefined conditions and simply occurs when the caster wills it to.\n Damaging or offensive spells that have a duration (for example, *flaming sphere* or *wall of fire*) cannot be rendered persistent. A wizard may have no more than one *persistence* spell active at any given time; if he girds a new spell while an old one is still persistent, the old spell is simply replaced by the new one.' +}; +wiz7['Seven-Eyes'] = { + 'level': '7', + 'school': 'Abjuration, Conjuration/Summoning', + 'range': '0', + 'duration': '[[@{level-wizard}]] rounds', + 'aoe': 'Create 7 eyes', + 'components': 'V, S, M', + 'cast-time': '7', + 'saving-throw': 'Special', + 'subtlety': '+5', + 'sensory': 'Medium visual', + 'knockdown': 'Varies', + 'crit-size': 'Varies', + 'materials': 'Seven blessed gemstones worth at least 50 gold pieces each.', + 'reference': 'p. 156', + 'book': 'Player\'s Option: Spells & Magic', + 'damage': '', + 'damage-type': '', + 'healing': '', + 'effect': 'This spell conjures into existence seven magical orbs that float above the caster’s head in a ring about 5 feet in diameter.

As long as the *heart of stone* remains in effect, the caster need not fear attacks that pierce, slash, or cut him; he does not bleed and can ignore the most horrible injuries of this kind. The caster can also ignore most magical effects such as spells, magical devices, and innate spell abilities of less than 8th level.\n In game terms, the character suffers only 1 point of damage from any type S or type P attack, plus any magical adjustment for the weapon. For example, if struck by a *long sword +1*, he would suffer only 2 points of damage. Strength and specialization bonuses are ignored. If the wizard is dismembered, he suffers no additional damage other than the inconvenience of having his limbs removed, and he can reattach a severed limb by holding it in place for one full turn. The *heart of stone* is also partially effective against type B attacks since it prevents bruising, swelling, and crushed blood vessels. Against bludgeoning weapons, the wizard only suffers half the normal damage. *Cause wound* spells always inflict minimum damage against a wizard protected by this spell. While the caster may not feel a sword in his rib cage, any damage sustained interrupts spellcasting.\n In addition to resisting injury, the *heart of stone* also renders the character immune to fatigue and exhaustion, whether normal or magical. He also gains a +4 bonus to saving throws vs. petrification attacks.\n While the *heart of stone* is quite powerful, it has limitations. First of all, determined physical attack can eventually destroy the wizard despite his unnatural resistance to injury—a mob of angry peasants with hatchets and spears can finish him off 1 point at a time if that’s what it takes. Second, the *heart* confers no protection against other attack forms, such as fire, electricity, cold, acid, and so on, although any bleeding caused by a burn is ignored. *Disintegration* effects also affect the caster. Most importantly, the caster loses the ability to naturally recover from injury and no longer regains lost hit points with the passage of time. Healing spells, potions and items are reduced to their minimum effect, so a *cure serious wounds* (2d8+1 hit points restored) would only return 3 hit points to a wizard protected by *heart of stone*. However, *limited wish* or *wish* can be used to restore 1 hit point per level of caster or all but 1d4 hit points, respectively.\n In addition to these disadvantages, *heart of stone* also renders the caster vulnerable in one other way: his own real heart can be destroyed, instantly slaying him. Naturally, the caster will want to take steps to hide and protect his true heart to prevent this from happening. The living heart continues to beat for the duration of the spell but requires no special receptacle or facilities to protect it—the caster could leave it lying on the floor, if he wished.\n The *heart of stone* cannot be dispelled, although a more powerful negation magic such as *Mordenkainen’s disjunction* can bring the spell to an end. *Stone to flesh* also undoes the magic of the *heart of stone*. No matter how the spell is ended, the wizard’s own living heart instantly returns to its proper place, and the stone heart appears wherever the living heart was kept. At this time, any injuries the wizard currently has are multiplied by 1d6 as the wounds begin to bleed again. For example, a necromancer who was injured for 6 points of damage instead suffers 6d6 when the spell ends.' +}; +wiz8['Iron Body'] = { + 'level': '8', + 'school': 'Alteration, Elemental Earth', + 'range': '0', + 'duration': '[[@{level-wizard}]] rounds', + 'aoe': 'The caster', + 'components': 'V, S, M', + 'cast-time': '8', + 'saving-throw': 'None', + 'subtlety': '+5', + 'sensory': 'Medium visual', + 'knockdown': 'None', + 'crit-size': 'None', + 'materials': 'A small piece of iron that once belonged to an iron golem.', + 'reference': 'p. 157', + 'book': 'Player\'s Option: Spells & Magic', + 'damage': '', + 'damage-type': '', + 'healing': '', + 'effect': 'This spell transforms the caster’s body into living iron, which grants him several powerful resistances and abilities. While the spell is in effect, the caster can only be injured by blunt weapons of +3 or better value, or monsters of 8+3 Hit Dice or more. Slashing weapons, falling, crushing, and constriction attacks of all types are completely unable to harm the caster, although an attack may knock him off-balance or pin him beneath tons of debris. Spells or attacks that affect the subject’s physiology or respiration—for example, poison, *cloudkill*, *enfeeblement*, *contagion*, or *pain touch*—fail completely, since the caster *has* no physiology or respiration while the spell is in effect. Also, spells that have weight limits should be applied to the wizard as if he weighed over 3,000 pounds. The wizard ignores electrical attacks and saves at +4 against fire attacks. If he saves, he takes quarter damage; if not, he takes half damage. If hit with a *rod of smiting*, he takes 2d8+6 points of damage unless the attacker rolls a natural 20. If this occurs, then the damage is doubled.\n In addition to the natural immunities of an *iron body*, the wizard enjoys powerful offensive abilities. His Strength score is raised to 20 (+3 to attack rolls, +8 damage) for the duration of the spell, and he can punch or bludgeon his enemies twice per round for 1d4 points of damage per blow, plus his Strength bonus. Unfortunately, his movement becomes slow and awkward, so he is reduced to a move of 3 and suffers a –2 penalty to his initiative rolls (or a reduction of his base phase by one step, in *Player’s Option: Combat & Tactics*). Most importantly, the wizard’s clumsiness and lack of breath prevent him from casting any spells while the *iron body* is in effect.\n *Iron body* may create additional hazards for the wizard as the DM deems appropriate. For example, rust monsters are extremely dangerous to a wizard using this spell. *Heat metal* spells inflict double damage to the caster. And, naturally, the wizard sinks like a stone in water—although he could survive the crushing pressure and lack of air at the bottom of the ocean—at least until the spell expired.

Only sentient beings can be affected; if the subject is not human, humanoid, or demihuman, he gains a +4 bonus on his saving throw.\n As described above, *programmed amnesia* can be used to achieve several different effects.

Skill erasure.** The subject can be made to forget any or all class-based skills or proficiencies, including all or part of his THAC0 (it resets to 20), thief abilities, spellcasting, turning undead, or any other ability that stems from knowledge. About the only characteristics that can’t be affected by this usage of Rheizom’s *programmed amnesia* are hit points, saving throws, and ability scores. A character’s native language cannot be erased, either.}}{{c4-2=**D. Persona erasure.** Combining the effects of a skill erasure and a memory erasure, this leaves the subject as a clean slate. Only his ability scores, hit points, saving throws, and native language remain. The character may assume any class or alignment available, beginning as a 1st-level character just as if he had decided to dual-class. (Even demihumans can dual-class in this fashion, since they forget all skills of their previous class.)}}{{c5-2=**E. Persona implant.** By erasing the existing personality and implanting a false set of memories, the wizard can build a new persona for the mind-wiped character. In effect, *he* can decide what class, alignment, and personality the subject will assume after his persona erasure. If the new persona is an adventurer, the character dual-classes, as described above.}}{{c6-2=**F. Programmed erasure.** The subject can be programmed to suffer a memory, skill, or persona erasure when a certain event takes place. For example, the wizard could set the subject to be wiped clean as a slate when the subject receives a coded message or arrives at some destination. Optionally, the wizard can decide to have an erasure partially or totally lifted when the programmed condition comes to pass.}}{{effects2= The casting time of this spell varies according to what effects the wizard wishes to impose on the subject. To cast just one of the listed effects, the wizard must spend two days secluded away from any distractions—a personal laboratory is a good example of a secluded place. In between the intense eight-hour casting sessions, the wizard can sleep and eat in the area he chose to seclude himself in. If the wizard breaks his seclusion for any reason, the spell is lost. Also, for every effect over the first, another day (with its eight-hour intense casting period) must be spent in seclusion.\n The wizard must be able to see the spell’s subject. At the end of each day of casting, the subject makes a saving throw vs. spell to negate the effect.\n *Programmed amnesia* is normally permanent, unless the wizard cares to specify a set of conditions or parameters that will end the effect (see F, above). Its effects can only be undone by a *restoration* or *wish* spell, or by successful use of the psionic science psychic surgery. A character who picks up new skills or class abilities while amnesiac must make a saving throw vs. spell when his own real memories return; if he fails, the skills he learned as an amnesiac are gone forever, replaced by his former abilities, but if he succeeds he retains any new skills, and may even choose to continue in his new class as a dual-classed character. Dungeon Masters should keep in mind that an amnesiac character should still meet the new class’s full prerequisites before he can become that class.\n Obviously, this is a very powerful spell, and the DM should very carefully examine a PC’s use of this magic. Dungeon Masters, take note—there are dozens of excellent plot vehicles hiding here if an NPC wizard uses this on a player character!

If the wizard attempts to bring the *sphere* into contact with a living creature, the potential victim gains a saving throw vs. breath weapon to dodge aside, but a victim who is unaware of the *sphere’s* appearance or unable to move is destroyed without a saving throw.\n Once conjured, the *sphere of ultimate destruction* may not move exactly as the caster wishes. The wizard has a 75% chance to control it, plus 1% per point of Intelligence over 12 and 3% for each point over 15. In other words, a wizard with an Intelligence of 18 would gain a +12% bonus to his chance to control the *sphere*.
