Dolmenwood Firearms (OSR)

 Dolmenwood has a very nice expanded equipment list, with sub-pages for dogs, horses, pipeweed, food and drink, herbs and fungi and more besides. What it doesn't have is firearms. And while some may argue that they don't fit in a medieval folkloric game, I'd say that any setting featuring themes of civilisation encroaching on nature is ripe for gunsmoke, and a werewolf is always best disposed of with a silver bullet. Plus, as G. R. Michael has pointed out, guns are older than plate armour.

A Drune Cottager reminds you whose land you're on.

Firearms have a small but significant history in Dolmenwood, they were first carried to the region by crusaders of the Pluritine Church during the Triple Compact. These early matchlock handgonnes and cannons had a number of properties that made them exquisitely useful during the war to banish the Cold Prince - the blasting fire of gunpowder was anathema to the Prince and his court's cold magic, the noise and flash of their muzzles terrified the dangerous animals of the wood into staying clear of the battlefields and dispersed fae cavalry, and few things sting an elf quite like a slug of raw iron ore from the barrel of a handgonne. Though this time is all but myth, the practice of gunnery remained and was adapted by many of Dolmenwood's inhabitants ever since. Woldish firearms are inevitably artisanal, and frequently heirloom items. No large gun forges exist and only Castle Brackenwolde has the resources necessary to cast cannon, leaving the crafting of new guns exclusively as bespoke items by the wood's rare gunsmiths and the occasional hobbyist.

SPECIAL NOTE: Adventuring, Dungeoneering and Firearms

A door with a normal lock can be automatically opened by shooting the lock off with any firearm, allowing the attackers to roll for Surprise as normal when entering combat unless they have already alerted the inhabitants on the other side. 

Normal animals can be scared off by the report of a firearm, forcing them to immediately check morale with a penalty of -1 per firearm shot in the current round. Creatures of 4HD+ or of a monstrous nature (DM decides what qualifies as a monster or a natural creature) are unaffected.

Any round in which firearms are employed in a dungeon triggers an automatic wandering monster roll, as the noise and commotion attracts the dungeon's fearless and ferocious defenders.

New Weapon Qualities

Bursting: This firearm is not particularly well made, and if rolling either minimum or maximum damage it has burst its barrel and is rendered inoperable junk.

Cone #': These firearms fire a wide spray of projectiles. Attacks made with this firearm are not rolled, instead every target within a cone of the specified number of dungeon spaces may make a Save for half damage.

Custom Grip: This firearm has been specially made for its user, to fit their specific grip and proportions. It provides its creator with +1 to hit, in the hands of anyone else it has a 3:6 chance of reducing their to-hit by -1, 2:6 chance of no benefit, and 1:6 chance of fitting them perfectly, allowing them to benefit of the +1 to hit as if the original owner.

Elf-Shooter: This gun has a reinforced barrel that allows it to fire cold iron bullets without risk of damage. Firearms without this quality that are loaded with cold iron bullets (costing double that of lead, as per DPB, 119) are damaged on a natural 1 attack roll, suffering a cumulative -1 penalty to hit and damage until repaired by a capable gunsmith, normally costing 20% of the weapon's base value per -1 penalty removed.

Rifled: As Missile (DPB, 118) but it has no Long range category, only short (+1 Attack) and medium.

Weapon Descriptions

Prigwort Blunderbuss: Used by coachmen to protect carts carrying Prigwort's famous exports of ale and spirits on their journeys throughout the wood. Known for their comically wide flaring barrels designed to facilitate reloading while atop a rumbling cart fleeing pursuers at high speed. 

Drunic Jezzail: Sometimes called "elf-shooters" by their cottager creators. Drunes sometimes take the mechanisms from muskets produced elsewhere and marry them to a extra-long reinforced barrels to allow them to endure firing slugs of hard, cold iron. Drunes make these guns just for themselves and their rare allies, and covet them almost as greedily as magic. They are usually heavily decorated by their owners with runes of spite and striking and strung with all manner of charms and talismans.

Mossling Woodlock: Maybe Dolmenwood's most unusual firearm, the mosslings make them from bored-out logs of hard woods like oak or cherry, wrapped tightly with sheets of leather or lengths of tarred rope to help contain the detonation. Ammunition is usually an assortment of pebbles, pinecones, hard nuts and wood chips, and propellant provided by the mossling's dampfire mould (see below), and ignited by a simple touch-hole and flame. These weapons are fairly shoddy and not expected to last many battles but are very effective at allowing a small group of mosslings to fend off much larger numbers, and as they are able to produce cheap propellant fairly easily are quite common among mossling militas.

High-Rifle: This sophisticated and elegant weapon is a legacy of High-Hankle's refined culture. Extremely accurate due to its rifling, long barrel and variable sights, it is intended for both sports hunting and for sniping ground targets from griffonback. High-Hankle's griffonriders have developed a special method for firing between their mount's wingbeats, making long, swivelling, tracking shots during their gliding periods.

Ammunition	Cost	Weight
Gunpowder (20)	25gp	20
Bullets, cast lead (20)	2gp	20
Gunpowder, Dampfire (20)	15gp	20

Most firearms can be loaded with basically anything that will fit down the barrel - unless using special ammunition the only cost is for gunpowder.

Ammunition Descriptions

Gunpowder: Proper corned gunpowder, the end of the gongfarmer's trade that people don't laugh about. In case you were wondering, a loose pile of gunpowder will deal d6 damage in a 5' radius for every 10 shots worth of the stuff is present, with a Save permitted for half damage. For every 2d6 damage the radius of the explosion increases by 5'. 

Bullets, cast lead: These are properly made, military grade bullets that have been cast in a special mold and carefully shaved with a sharp blade of any flashing that would seriously impede the bullet's flight. These minor masterworks grant a +1 to Attack.

Gunpowder, Dampfire: This is not true gunpowder, but rather a rare species of mould that is cultivated by some mossling communities. Scraped off and allowed to dry in the sun, this greasy black powder makes quite an acceptable cheap replacement for standard gunpowder. It detonates with a squeaky pop rather than a thunderous boom but it is no less loud for it. Dampfire is rare outside of mulchgrove. For every two hexes away from the region the likelihood of it being available drops by -1:6.

Base Matter Rendered Into Light - The Chandler's Grimoire

 Intended to accompany Skerple's components system here. Also maybe belated bandwagonning?

The High Chandlers are a curious case in the use of the synthesist's craft, focusing more on combining their spell components beforehand according to proscribed patterns than the usual whimiscally slap-dash witchcraft seen in those who practice this typically rustic form of spellworking. Perhaps for this reason their guild managed to reach much higher degree of respectability than that of others who employ the craft, not as vaunted as the magi of the Word, but at least on par with the Alchemists. 

A Chandler's workspace is as full of bric-a-brac as any other component-caster, just a bit more homogenous.

Benefits of candle magic;
While somewhat constrained compared to conventional witchcraft, candle magic is not without its compensations, and they are significant;

1. Component Space Efficiency: A completed magic candle takes up only one slot in a magician's component pouch but functions as two for the sake of the spell it was made for.
2. Candle Charms: A prepared candle can be given to another to use. The chandler must charge it with their own spell points beforehand, which remain committed until either the candle is used or the chandler chooses to withdraw their power - whichever comes first. The roll to see if the next casting will require more spell points is made by the person who ignites the candle and applies to them, not the chandler. e.g. a chandler creates a charged candle for a client that normally costs the chandler 1 spell point to cast, the client burns the candle and rolls a 5 - the next time the client needs a candle of that type it will cost 2 spell points to charge, but if the chandler wanted to use that candle spell themselves it would still only cost them 1 spell point. In this fashion chandlers are able to sell the same spell effects to different clients for many years without losing the power needed.
3. Candle Duration: Most candle spells can be made optionally to last as long as the candle is lit, ending only when the candle burns out or is extinguished. A typical spell candle is about the size of a birthday candle and lasts 30 minutes, but larger candles can be made at greater cost - simply multiply the cost of materials and the component size to determine the duration. Giant pillar candles often have multiple wicks to minimise the chance that all will be accidentally extinguished at once, which ends the magic, while smaller ones are best kept in lanterns. Note that candle-spells made without this option instead burn with an inextinguishable cold flame that consumes the components contained in the candle by the time the spell's duration has elapsed.

THE GRIMOIRE

A Candle to Find a Murderer
Take thee tallow taken from a good scenthound, one that has been trained by a hunter is good, one that has been trained by a hunter of men is best. Render it well and colour and scent it to your liking. For the wick, fashion it from a cord unwound from a hangman's rope. If intending to use the candle's spell yourself no further measures need be made, but if passing it to one of the uninitated as a charm add a drop of your blood to the tallow and a thread of your hair to the cord to lend it potency. Dip the wick and chant thusly once between coating; 

Find for vengence, find for hope, find for justice, find for rope.

I have been vouchsafed that the spell is more eficacious if spoken in the phlegmatic tongue of Oldenwael, but I cannot confirm the truth of this. To complete the spell, cut the victim's name into the wax and light - the candle's flame and smoke shall be as a compass needle for their slayer.

A Candle to Cleanse a Sickhouse
Take thee finest beeswax of purest white, as are in high demand by the temples. Melt it well and remove from the flame, before it begins to cloud add one tenth its weight in essence of lavender, some use oil of verbena to the same effect but it has never worked for me and in any case is not as strongly scented or noble, for the lavender was brought to our land by the men of the imperium whose works can reliably be considered superior to native ways. It is not suitable to cloud the wax with your blood if giving the candle to another, instead double-strengthen the wick with a thread of your robe and a hair of your head instead to lend it your potence - the wick is of no concern in this spell and I favour hemp or barkcloth cord to recoup the expense of the wax and essence. To complete the spell, light the candle while exclaiming "Avaunt, avaunt, unclean winds and spirits!" You will know it has worked if the circle of your flame's light is free of dustmotes and other airborne spores, which it will drive before it like a wind. No man who carries such a candle will contract the pox, nor will he choke on bad winds, even if he were to luncheon in a plague ward. If burned beside the bed of a patient they will not spread their sickness to others and may recover at greater speed.

The Leyndell Perfumers were forefront in my mind when thinking of Chandler Lore.

A Candle to Walk Unseen At Night
Take thee common tallow and blacken it with soot - I have heard tell that some use the tallow of cats instead but those who request this are like to be low sorts and unwilling to part with the coin such costly materials demand, but it may prove efficaceous. On the wick one cannot scrimp, however; only the spun threads of a thiefs' cloak will suffice (this your client may be able to supply themselves, charge them not a whit less!). Dip it in silence and darkness, by touch and familiarity of your workplace - it matters not if the result is unbeautiful. Empower with blood and hair as standard, but beware - any diviner worth their lamen can find you by it, so pick your clients wisely and the foolish and unfortunate deny. When the candle is lit and the spell is completed, only the bearer of the candle will be able to see the light it casts.

A Candle to Cast a Shadowy Death
Take thee the tallow of a werewolf, the bloodier its reign of terror before being felled the better for this purpose - this alone should warn you of the dire nature of this spell, which we do not reveal to outsiders or offer in sale to any clients besides the King and his appointed agents. Some say a female werewolf produces a slyer killer while a male a more fierce one, but this may be mere chatter - the fat of a werewolf that died of old age however is a fearsome reagent indeed! Render it well and colour and scent to your liking. For the wick take a silken strangler's cord, sometimes called a garotte in the cities of the east, and snip it free of its handles or thumb-loops. Adding too much of yourself to such a candle is, I feel, unwise and may lead to the spell being confused as to its target - if making it for another add no more than one of your hairs and one thread of your robe - NEVER blood such a candle! To complete the spell, carve the name of the intended victim into the wax and fix their image in your mind as you light the wick, saying "O, beast of smoke and shadows, I call on you to hunt!". You will see that the candle flame casts a shadow antipodal to your own, one of bestial caste and terrible swiftness, like the moving image created by a zoetrope. This will hunt your target unerringly and though it be made of shadows - and proof against blades and all mortal weapons besides fire - it can yet tear and rend flesh and wood alike as if it were solid. It will fix its attentions on the target, ignoring all others save those that try to rise in its quarry's defence or those who through flame or sorcery deal it injury.

This is how Chandlers would look as a Soulsian enemy (or NPC merchant?)

A Candle to Sting the Eyes of Darksome Beasts
Take thee wax harvested from a hive that has stung to death a mammal or a reptile of any size (cage together a mouse and the hive if you must), melt it well and colour and scent to your liking - crimson is traditional and auspicious for this work, but not necessary. The wick must be made of nettle fibre cord, easily found and harvested in summer once the nettle-tips are no longer good for eating. Dip the wick whilst speaking this Undercommon malediction between each coating;

Mong bạn nhìn thấy ánh sáng.

I do not know the meaning of this phrase myself, but I am assured that creatures of the dark places of the world consider it a dire and terrible curse. Add two parts of yourself to the mix if intended for a client; blood, hair or thread, it matters not. When lit, the candle will burn with a terrible piercing bright red flame. Those creatures that have the faculty such that they may see clearly by night will find this light especially painful and turn their faces from it as if put pepper in their eyes. Doubly so for those creatures who fear the light of the sun, who will be driven before the candle's light shrieking as if lashed by the whips of hell.

A Fulminating Candle to Dismay a Foe
Take thee tallow from a fighting bull, one which has gored a matador is best but not strictly necessary as long as it has fought on the sands. The wick must be wooden, made of lighting-struck oak, soaked in oil and allowed to dry in sunlight - olive is best, but any will suffice. The tapers should be small and fit well in the palm of the hand, with enough weight to be thrown a goodly distance. Colour and scent to your liking - be sure to pick a memorable combination! Dire results could come from mixing up this candle with others! Brightest saffron yellow and the scent of long pepper and grains of paradise are traditional. To employ, light the candle and cast it forth from your person immediately. Within five heartbeats of its lighting it will burst forth with a blast of light and buffeting force such to knock an armoured man from his feet and cast him back five paces. A foeman can so be rendered momentarily blind and dazed, ripe for the misericorde.

When you travel in dark places, carry a light.

Clerics as Prophets (Esoteric Lorebuilding)

 Clerics are odd ducks. Their classical image of the mailed crusader with a religious proscription against wielding bladed weapons deliberately evokes medieval warrior-priests of the Archbishop Turpin and Odo of Bayeux vein. But while those fellows were members of a powerful Church with clear heirarchy and vast political power, the adventuring cleric is free to roam the backroads and wildnerness, associating with thieves, bandits and witches, and if they run afoul of the authorities they can expect to be treated like any other homeless vagabond. The various incarnations of the Cleric from OD&D to 5E have expounded on their power to call down miracles and avaunt unquiet souls, but conspicuously absent has been any reference to the political power of the church or temple they represent. This is strange on the face of it, priests have always wielded a lot of social clout - but our adventuring cleric is unmoored.

There's plenty of ways I could develop subsystems and add class abilities, but I don't like changing something when I can just recontextualise it instead. And for the adventuring cleric, one little tweak to how clerics are conceptualised makes everything about its design make perfect sense;

Clerics aren't priests, they're prophets.

You have no political power or support from a wider Church as a cleric because there isn't one. Oh, there's religions out there, sure - whole heirarchies of temples, pontiffs and priests - and you're not part of it.

Bearer of the Word

As an adventuring cleric you're a revelation, a new Word coming out of the wilderness to shake the foundations of the earth. If the wider religious heirarchy hears about you they're probably not going to welcome you with open arms; they're probably going to either laugh at you or ignore you. Once you start getting more notoriety they're going to denounce you as a heretic, maybe try to get you burned at the stake if your message is a bit too radical. Once you hit Name level and start gathering real power, they're going to start sweating bullets and quietly packing the silverwear into easily-moved trunks. Either way, they're not going to help you.

Terrible Purpose

But adventurers? Freethinkers and desperadoes, living by their wits and determination. The kind of folk who decide to make a profession out of wresting handfuls of grave goods from nameless horrors deep beneath the earth aren't the sort to look askance at a fellow for worshipping strange gods and preaching radical heresies, not when he can heal with a touch and cast back the unquiet dead by force of will. Sinners one and all - the ones who need to hear your Word the most.

Shake the Foundations

When a player wants to be a cleric I now tell them to invent the name of their god and the tenets of their faith themselves and that nobody before them in the current mileu has ever heard of it. This might be because they're a foreigner, a missionary from a mysterious land far, far away (with accompanying odd customs), or they're the first to hear the voice of a nascent god in the wilderness. As they grow in notoriety and perform great deeds, so too does the power of their god over the land swell - this is why their god can't just grant them miracles on command; their power is finite and constrained - the cleric's god is at first little more than a whisper on the wind, but quickly grows to titanic proportions.

Inner Mysteries

The spell list of all clerics is broadly similar because the divine itself has a certain essential nature - that of bringing Order out of chaos. Curative spells like cure light wounds and restoration just return broken parts of creation back to their intact state, but really that's all any clerical spell does. All clerical spells are essentially just glimpses into the world as it should be, sinless and unfallen. In the world as it should be water would refuse to drown, bar the way or even moisten the robes of the righteous - that's how a cleric casts water walk, by reminding the waters of their duty. Command and Gease/Quest? People should obey a servant of the gods. Flame strike? That's just the sun and stars fulfilling their intended purpose as weapons against the forces of darkness.

Of course there are gods of Chaos and Darkness, too. Sometimes they're just the guys who cast the reversed versions of Cleric spells and command rather than turn undead by default, but in my home games clerics are exclusively the servants of Order. The gods of Chaos have their priests, of course - they're just represented by Magic-Users.

Again, this is not an excercise in changing the class - it's an excercise in not changing it, keeping it exactly as written without any need to make the game world change to fit the way clerics are actually played. That said, if players want to add one or two spells per level of their own devising to their clerical spell list to flesh out their ethos I'm more than happy - I'm ecstatic in fact.

The Folly of Alchemists is Believing Man is Perfectable - Fantastic Implants

Originally intended to be GLOGTOBER content, but that ship has long since sailed, ho-hum.

Inspired by this incredible post (and excellent blog overall).

The sorcerers of old were ever searching of ways to transcend their feeble biology, to allow their bodies to match the transcendant powers their minds were able to encompass. Of these practices the rite of lichdom is by far the most enduring, but in the tombs of sorcerers who sought to expand their powers rather than prolong their lives can be found relics of another tradition - the replacement of mundane flesh with fantastical artifice.

d66 Eye Replacements
11. Adamant Orb: Completely indestructible, ignore any facial wounds that target this eye. You will never be permanently blinded while you have it.

12. Apatite Deciever: Brilliant blue faceted apatite. Allows you to cast an illusion over your face, letting your features appear however you wish.

13. Autochthonic Eye: Mummified eye of an elder race, like the serpentmen or gigantes, set in amber. Lets you read their language and understand the purpose and operation of their artifacts instantly by sight.

14. Balorian Marker: Emits an eye-wateringly bright but narrow red beam of light. Anyone you make eye contact with must save or be dazzled. If implanted on your dominant side, allows you to aim ranged weapons with startling accuracy (+2 to hit). Makes stealth impossible in the dark unless you wear a patch over it - the light is visible even through your eyelid.

15. Bibliographic Oculus: Marble orb, bound with brass rings, set with a quartz lens. Records up to five thousand pages worth of text that has been presented before it, allows you to recall it to your vision at will. Can function as a spellbook.

16. Cathexic Monitor: Polished welo opal, set with a ring of rosegold on one side to imitate a iris. Allows you to see how much emotional energy is invested in objects, by a roseate glow about them. Things nobody cares about are unlit, while something considered very important is limned with a rosy flame.

21. Clay Eye: Simple orb of fired river clay, with a stylus-marked sclera and pupil. Lets you identify the presence of motive force in animated objects, golems and the like without having to see them move.

22. Coalblack Sphere: Carved and resin-varnished coal, perfect in every detail right down to the veins on the surface of the eye. Staring at something intently and squinting causes it to catch fire as if a lit torch had been pressed up against it, thrice per day. 

23. Daguerrotypic Lens: A sphere of polished tin, set with a dark lens of smoky quartz. Lets you perfectly memorize up to 15 images and recall them to memory. If implanted on the same side as your dominant hand, you can sketch or paint the scene from memory in photorealistic detail in a tenth of the time it would normally take an artist to depict.

24. Diamond Gaze: Faceted and uncomfortable, the socket it is placed in weeps metalic gold resin that collects like candlewax around the lower eyelid. You may determine the market value of gems automatically, and identify magical gems and jewellery.

25. Excogigating Oculus: A perfect sphere of hardened glass, within which can be seen moving thousands of intricate clockwork mechanisms and miniscule diamond lenses. Roll a d20 at the start of the day, at any time thereafter you may swap the result of this die with any other made by yourself or anyone within your field of vision.

26. Fane Orbit: Brass, with a cinnabar lens, intricately inscribed with minute Adamic script. Can be possessed by a noncorporeal being, allowing them to see through it and communicate telepathically with the wearer. The wearer gains the possessing being's visual abilities, if any.

31. Gorgonized Sphere: Polished granite, with a jagged vein of malachite running through like a serpent's slit-eye. Closing your other eye (if present) and looking through it alone makes you immune to the petrifying gazes of basilisks and medusae. 

32. Hoarfrost Orb: Clear crystal sphere filled with a viscous liquid and flecks of silvery powder. The wearer's vision is not obscured by snow or fog, no matter how thick.

33. Habile Eye: Ivory inlaid with silver in geometric patterns radiating out from an aquamarine lens. Guides the bearer's hand-eye coordination, increasing their skill in delicate tasks such as trap-disarmament and similar tasks, as if they were a Thief of the 3rd level (or giving a Thief +3 levels worth of skill improvements in Climbing, Disarming and Lock Picking).

34. Isocratic Orb: A clear glass sphere, changes its surface to match exactly the wearer's original eye. Persons making eye contact with the wearer automatically assume them to be of equal social status to themselves, regardless of their current attire or familiarity, until given reason to suspect otherwise - at which point they may make a Save vs. Devices to shake off the enchantment.

35. Jacinth Apotropaic: Bright orange cabouchon with a cat's-eye reflectivity. Renders the bearer immune to disease-like curses such as mummy rot, lycanthropy and wasting sickness caused by a Bestow Curse spell and magically induced fear.

36. Karyote Stone: Looks like a bacterium the size of a grape, firm and slightly rubbery to the touch with organelles swimming within. When placed inisde the eye socket will slowly divide into smaller and smaller subdivisions over the course of a week, eventually forming a new biological eye of random colour and possibly belonging to another species, which divides once more to produce a copy of the stone. 

41. Lachrymose Spherule: Marble with a bloodstone cornea. Once per day on command it will weep a single tear of an oily crimson fluid which will act as a Cure Disease potion to anyone who imbibes it within an hour of it forming, and emits a subtle scent in the immediate area which drives vampires and other blood-drinkers into a berserk frenzy, throwing off their human guises and bearing their snarling fangs openly.

42. Malediction Optic: Obsidian inlaid with minute geometric patterns of silver. Allows the wearer to percieve curses on beings and objects as floating achromatic notation in the language of bygone Koth. If the wearer doesn't speak Kothic they can still see curses in this way, but if they also speak the language it will provide details on the nature on the curse and has a 2:6 chance of revealing a non-spell method for removing the curse.

43. Nacreous Spheroid: A beautiful pearlescent orb, optical distortions on its surface give the impression of a rainbow-coloured swirling iris when viewed from the right angle. Amplifies the bearer's charisma to superhuman levels, doubling their hireling limit and loyalty and allowing them to cast Suggestion a number of times per day equal to their Charisma bonus, if any.

44. Numiform Eyecap: An ancient electrum 1 Obol coin, such as those placed over the eyes of the dead. Placed in an empty eyesocket it will affix in place and allow the bearer to see through the ghost of their lost eye. This ghost-eye can see into the spirit world and allows the bearer to percieve invisible undead.

45. Oriform Orbit: Horribly organic, looks like a ball of human gum-tissue with a double row of tiny teeth on one side. Unlike other eyes on this list it provides no replacement vision in the lost eye, however once in place the bearer may open the 'mouth' and if the eye of a dead being is placed in it the bearer may see through it, gaining any special vision modes they once possessed, or allow the Oriform Orbit to chew it up and eat it, allowing the bearer to see the last 5 seconds of the dead's life.

46. Paynim Ocule: Basalt, iris is an incised triskele. The bearer is able to read Ogham and has their alignment move one step toward Chaotic.

51. Quern Gaze: A short cylindrical ring rather than a sphere, granite with a borehole in the centre. Can exert a tortional force on whatever it is directed at, crushing it to a fine powder. This acts as a Disintegrate spell that only functions on brittle, non-living substances, thrice per day.

52. Relucent Cusp: Mirror-shined and featureless. Gives a 50% chance of reflecting back any gaze attacks directed against the bearer.

53. Sable Stone: A light-drinking black stone with a bright star at its centre acting as a pupil. Thrice per day it may absorb all light in a given area, acting as a Darkness spell. However, before the Darkness effect may be cast again, the absorbed light must be first expelled, either diffusely as a Light spell or as a penetrating beam of laser light - dealing 3d6 damage in a 120ft line, save vs. wands for no damage.

54. Setiferous Sensor: Resembles a fossilised sea urchin. When inserted into the eye socket it exudes spines in all directions, painfully embedding itself in the cavity beyond the capacity to be removed without a Regeneration or Heal spell to save the patient from dying in the process. While unsightly, it does provide the bearer with subtle senses beyond the limits of human perception - the bearer gains the ability to detect vibrations in the air produced by moving objects, giving them a 5:6 chance of detecting ambush and negating the attack bonus to sneak attacks.

55. Telestic Witness: Appears to be a piece of midnight sky fashioned into a sphere, with a tiny swirling nebula as its iris and a black hole as its pupil. Once per day permits the bearer to identify the exact nature and function of any kind of weird dungeon shit they find - magic mirrors, sinister altars, bottomless wells of chaos, that kind of jazz. No mucking about, just tell them exactly what it does.

56. Thelemic Monocule: A plain white marble marked with a hexagrammatic ideogram on one side. Acts as proof against any visually-induced mind control effects, such as Hypnotic Pattern or the entrancing gaze of a vampire.

61. Ultion Glare: Initially appears to be a nondescript glass eye that changes to mimic the bearer's original, but when in sight of monstrous humanoids it becomes a baleful slitted and bloodshot red, twisting the bearer's face involuntarily into a snarl and filling their mind with images of slaughter. The bearer gains a bonus equal to their level to damage against orcs, goblins, ogres, giants and other such marauding humanoids, exactly as a Ranger does. They automatically reroll any friendly result on reaction rolls with such creatures.

62. Vaticidal Oculus: Smoky quartz with a flower-spray inclusion of iron oxide at its core. The bearer is immune to any effect that alters luck, fate or probabilities, such as Bless/Bane or portent dice, seeming to step through impossible parabolas of time and space to disregard such oracular chicanery.

63. Willemite Revealer: A brilliant yellow-green gem. Permits the bearer to percieve strange radiations - including magic but explicity excluding curses and illusions - as flourescences within their field of vision, and with practice and experimentation to tell them apart.

64. Xylotomous Eye: Tungsten steel with a spiral screw-head pattern as its iris. Permits the bearer to see through wooden surfaces. Even a coating of paint will obstruct this sight, so it's less useful in seeing through buildings than might be expected but it could allow someone to spy through floorboards with great ease, and is exceptionally useful in spotting things hidden in a forest, granting a +2 bonus to surprise rolls in forested environments.

65. Yantra Stone: A brilliantly coloured enamel sphere covered with a circular geometric diagram. A Cleric who bears this eye treats their effective Wisdom as 4 points higher for purposes of determining bonus spells per day.

66. Zendic Orb: Gold-bright brass, set with the ideogram for "Truth" in the ancient tongue of High Acheron. Divine magic washes off the bearer like water from a duck's back, granting them 80% magic resistance against Clerical or Druidic spells. 

d12 Tooth Replacements
1. Aeviternal Molar: A flawless recreation of an actual human molar (actually slightly larger than modern human, due to the creator having a greater concentration of neanderthal blood than is common in the present day), cast in indestructible black adamant. Grants the bearer immunity to the failure chance of potions of longevity - they can prolong their life indefinately though the use of such potions without the cumulative chance of the effect being reversed.

2. Aerobic Incisor: Coffee-brown and horribly pitted along the inner side. Produces enough oxygen to allow the bearer to survive without an external source of air as long as their airway is not obstructed (such as by being strangled).

3. Bacchanalian Cuspid: Carved from crimson Alexandrite. Allows the bearer to throw off the effects of drunkeness with a moment's thought and acts as a Neutralise Poison spell that only affects ingested toxins.

4. Canicidal Canine: Sharp, conical, formed of gray alien metal shot through with silvery streaks of unknown provenance. The bearer's bite injects a save-or-die poison on any dog or wolf-like creature, including werewolves, wolfweres, wargs and the like.

5. Demephitising Dental: A row of flanged and rugose alagdonite mandibular incisors. Purifies the bearer's breath, both inward - allowing them to ignore poisonous gasses and spores by simply breathing through the mouth - and out; eliminating halitosis.

6. Eclipsis Razor: A maxillary central incisor of titanium-capped cerulite. Allows the bearer to make their speech silent to specific individuals, as many as they choose - though they must be aware of them at the time this power is invoked.

7. Furibund Fang: Silver, longer and sharper than human and intricately cast with symbols of baying wolves, packed together tight as sardines. Allows the bearer to enter into a berserker rage, wherein they increase their To Hit and Melee Damage by +2, decrease their AC by -2, and gain 2d6 temporary hit points for 3 rounds. User must consume several handfuls of raw red meat before using this power again.

8. Grammarye Tusk: Ametrine lower canine, inset with a tiny silverwork shrine to Yig the serpent god. A magic-user with this tooth may once per day choose to increase one of the numerical variables of their spells (such as range or damage) by 50% before casting.

9. Hamartia Taster: An oddly sharp ammolite molar. By tasting the flesh of a creature you can determine any special vulnerabilities or resistances it has. 

10. Irroborating Molar: Lead-gray and metallic. Grows into and through the bones of the user's skull, converting the bone into living steel. The bearer has a 2:6 chance of ignoring critical hits, due to the added internal protection.

11. Tentiginous Mandibular:  Crystal-clear mellite incisor. Increases the bearer's Charisma by 2 points and allows them to cast Dominate by kiss once per day - only one target can be Dominated in this way at any given time, the prior victim being freed from influence if another is targetted.

12. Winterkill Fangs: Replaces both the user's maxillary canines with translucent white feldspar fangs. The bearer's breath mists in hot weather but doesn't in cold. Grants resistance to harm from cold weather, reduces damage from cold-based spells by half, and allows the bearer to breathe a Cone of Cold once per day per point of Constitution bonus.

d12 Fingernail Replacements
1. Batrachian Touch: Patterned like a poison arrow frog. The bearer's attacks inject lethal poison on a critical hit, requiring a save vs. death.

2. Drepanoid Talon: Squamous and reddish brown, like the back of a pangolin. On command extends into a curled sickle-blade. Acts as a dagger in melee combat, and gives the bearer advantage on grappling and climbing rolls.

3. Evirating Claw: Pointed and porcelain-like, shot through with pulsing crimson veins. With a touch the victim must save vs. death or suffer a great langour and muscular ache, reducing their melee damage by -4.

4. Foveate Plate: A plate of horribly pitted leaden metal, like the surface of the moon. Bestows 2d6 bonus hit points, rerolled each dawn, from a paramagnetic field encasing the bearer's skin.

5. Hastate Nail: Shaped like the head of an assegai, cast in dark bronze. The bearer's arm can extend 10ft with a whiplike speed, striking as a spear in melee combat.

6. Kinematic Claw: Mirror-shined and intricately inscribed with geometric diagrams. The bearer can perfectly replicate any hand motion they observe. Amongst other uses, this can allow them to copy a person's writing while observing them from a distance.

7. Nebulising Nail: Initially translucent and colourless, spotted along its surface with tiny pores. By touching it to a liquid substance the nail will absorb it, taking on the same colour. Thereafter it will emit the absorbed substance as a gaseous puff in a 90-degree 3' spray.

8. Obsidian Tecpatl: Razor-sharp and black as night, carved with a side-profile of a skeletal face, could easily cut through a binding rope with a minute's work. If dipped in the blood of a freshly-killed sapient humanoid, holds a charge that can be used to activate any other implant that has limited uses per day.

9. Puissant Finger: Silver-chrome and inset with the constellation Orion in tiny diamonds. The finger it is attached to can be slowly pressed through any solid surface like it was made of wet clay. Useless in combat as it must be pressed in the same place for a few seconds before it will take effect, but can make peep-holes or slowly cut through any surface less than a finger's thickness.

10. Quaffing Digit: Striated and porous like pumice. Allows the user to taste potions to determine their properties by placing their fingertip in the liquid. If tasting would ordinarily reduce the potency of the potion, it is not affected in this case, if the potion is poisoned, cursed or caustic the nail can be sacrificed instead of conferring its penalty to the victim - it turns black, shrivels up and drops off, allowing the victim's normal nail to eventually regrow.

11. Smiting Nail: Silvered, bearing the image of a warrior saint's deathmask. Once per day enwreathes a weapon held in the hand that bears the nail with a radiant silver flame, adding +2d4 damage to the next attack made with it and forcing the target to Save or be stunned with agony for 1 round.

12. Upheaving Claw: Black iron thumbnail, squared like a chisel. Endows the arm that bears it with tremendous strength for purposes of lifting only. The bearer could haul an oxcart off a trapped person one-handed but would not be able to carry it even a single step.

I HAVE LASER BEAMS COMING OUT OF MY HEAD - (GLOG Psychic Paths)

The common man has infinite options available to them, and like the diffuse rays of the sun their will presses itself only lightly upon the World. The true master prunes his will, aligns and collimates it, as a lens focuses light into a narrow point - and the World burns beneath it.

These being possible advancement paths for Locheil's psychic. Go read it first or little of this will make much sense.

MY FOCUS IS EXCHANGE

A: My Paradigm is... I will never go back on my word.

From it I gain the Power... Dis For Dat

I can trade anything for anything. The exchange doesn't have to be balanced, because value is subjective, but everyone involved has to agree it's worth their while. A rich man could buy a year of a bum's lifespan for a million bucks. A soldier could sell his marksmanship skills in exchange for a would-be terrorist's previously peaceful life. More prosaically, people within my Crown can swap places with eachother freely.

B: My Paradigm is...  I will never steal.

From it I gain the Power...  Here For There

I can trade the places of anything inanimate or consenting within my Crown, including myself. If I exchange the places of things that are of radically different mass they both create sonic booms, which can stun and deafen anybody nearby - including myself.

C: My Paradigm is...  I will never work for free.

From it I gain the Power...  Fuck You, Pay Me

Anyone who wishes to attack me or force me to do something I do not wish to must pay me for the privilege. The minimum payment is one gold piece, but each seperate act requires an individual payment - if the gnoll who wants to gut me throws a platium piece they get one attack, not ten. Payment can be in goods as well as legal tender, but the one-for-one rule still applies.

D: My Paradigm is...  I will never accept charity.

From it I gain the Power...  Equivalent Exchange

I can transform objects I own into other things. If exchanging goods for goods, some bastard cosmic exchequer taxes the transaction, meaning I can only transform it into something of half its market value or less. If exchanging legal tender (including gold and gems) for goods though, the transformation occurs at the market price. I can also combine the value of things with identical characteristics, like merging two 50' ropes into one 100' rope or a pile of small diamonds into one big diamond with the combined value of them all (this particular ability makes me incredibly popular with wizards). All coins are considered to have 'identical characteristics' for this purpose, so that giant mound of copper coins I found at the bottom of the last dungeon can be quite easily squidged down into a more manageable pocketful of platinum.

MY FOCUS IS ORDER

A: My Paradigm is... I will never enter a home unwelcomed.

From it I gain the Power... Inviolable Domain

I can exclude a broad or narrow category of things from the area of my Crown, one at a time. They simply cease to exist within it. Whatever I choose applies to me as well, but I can game it through specificity - if I choose projectiles then any bullets in my gun will dissappear, but if I narrow it down to bullets and use a crossbow, I'm good. The excluded things go back to existing once they leave the area of my Crown or I change it to exclude something else.

B: My Paradigm is...  I will never vandalise a work of art.

From it I gain the Power...  Crystalise

I can convert dead or inorganic matter within my Crown into a changeless crystalline form that is immune to the passage of time and back again. Living organic matter can be encapsulated within it but not converted. Beings that have been so encysted (they should probably get a Save to avoid it) remain alive, not aging and requiring no nourishment nor air and could be chipped out but outside my Crown crystalised material returns to its normal state in about 10 minutes in any case. Crystalised air has equivalent physical resilience to ice, but feels warm like polystyrene to the touch. Anything I Crystalise is vulnerable to a Shatter spell.

C: My Paradigm is...  I will never break a written contract.

From it I gain the Power... Indivisible

No part of my body can be separated from the whole, nor can my effects be removed from me against my will. I can still be poked full of holes and have my organs lacerated and bones broken, but I will never die of blood loss or being beheaded. Likewise I cannot be disarmed or pickpocketed, any attempt to do so finds the item held as firm as an immovable rod.

D: My Paradigm is...  I will never damage a work of artifice.

From it I gain the Power...  Pyramid Power

Things that spend time within my Crown subtly get better over time, slowly moving toward their ideal form. Entropy itself flees before my Crown; rust returns to healthy iron, cracks meld together, dirt sloughs like water from waxpaper, dull blades become sharp. The effect extends to living things; diseases halt in their progression and in time reverse their course, wounds never fester and heal at thrice the normal pace and never leave scars, people even age backwards or forwards at an accelerated pace until they reach the age where they are at their physical peak, though it is rare for someone other than myself to be within my Crown long enough to see such an impact. Given enough time, objects and even people might even become better than they were at their best; blades cut atomic-thin, silk ropes become as tough as carbon fibre, skin and muscle as clean and defined as marble statuary.

MY FOCUS IS IDOLATRY

A: My Paradigm is...  I will never take up arms.

From it I gain the Power... Stone Shadow

I can transform my body into a statue carved from solid stone of my choice. I can then step outside of the statue, leaving it behind - it is real and permanent, even if it leaves my Crown. If I grapple someone and leave them trapped in a stony headlock they're probably not getting out without help or a hammer and chisel. Given enough time I can create relatively stable walls or other structures out of interlocking statues of myself, mortared together with naught but handholds and embraces.

B: My Paradigm is...  I will never refuse an offering of food, drink or incense.

From it I gain the Power...  White Jade Shintai

By my will, as many statues created through Stone Shadow as I have levels can be declared Idols. Each Idol has its own Crown, I can see and hear through all my Idols and count as standing in their place for purposes of Telekinesis, Telepathy and Manifestation. At will I can dissappear from where I stand to step out of them. When I do so I cannot leave the area of the Idol's Crown, but I really have moved places and can take back anything I find there with me when I return. If I wish to declare a new Idol once I have reached my limit, one of my previously created Idols of my choosing crumbles to dust.

C: My Paradigm is...  I will never mistreat social outcasts or show unearned respect to the mighty.

From it I gain the Power...  Army of God

I can animate the statues created through Stone Shadow and control them as if they were my own body while they are within my Crown. All the animated statues are as subject to my Paradigms as I am, and so may not bear weapons, but their fists are still made of stone.

D: My Paradigm is...  I will never desecrate a sacred place.

From it I gain the Power...  Smoke of Sacrifice

I gain power from people who worship at my Idols. Any item left within my Idol's Crown as a sacrifice transforms into smoke and is inhaled by the Idol. I can summon to hand anything they sacrifice, and gain one point I can apply to any number on my character sheet for every magnitude of worshippers I have (10, 100, 1000, etc.). Finally, if someone prays before my Idol for a blessing I can bestow them a Power that fulfils their wish, along with a Paradigm of my choosing - as many such blessings as I have Templates can exist at any one time.

Dark and sinister man, have at thee - GLOG Duelling Styles

Answering Locheil's challenge here.

Loch's original post mentioned Lessons that some fighting styles had, but didn't elaborate on them. I interpreted them as extra special bonuses you could gain once mastering all techniques within a given style. I leave it up to the DM how they are acquired, probably via questing.

Ψ - Gloriam
Style of the de Voltenes, an aasimar noble family descended from ancient heroes, now sadly degenerate and impious - their youngest son rumoured to have been born a tiefling as divine punishment and sent to the New World aboard a slave barge to save the family's face. Requires the use of a silvered blade.

1. Technique: Ave Igna - Shout a holy word aloud as you execute a lunging fleché and the wound site sparks on contact - your attack causes fire damage on a hit, and may set flammable things alight.
2. Stance: Pinhead Dance - As long as you have an elegant weapon in hand, you cannot lose your balance no matter how narrow or unsure the surface you stand upon. What is considered elegant changes with fashion and circumstance, but in general; rapier yes, thousand-folded eastern disembowelling scimitar yes, sledgehammer no, lochaber axe no.
3. Technique: Speculum Solis - Use the mirror-polished surface of your silvered sword to dazzle your foe. Target must Save or be blinded for one round, in addition to being stabbed. Only useable outdoors in the daytime or with an equivalent source of light - a Daylight spell is fine.
4. Stance: Immaculate - You cannot be muddied, bloodied, dusted, splattered or moistened by the to-and-fro of combat. Mostly this is just showing off, but exceptionally useful when fighting things that have acid for blood, emit gouts of spores when poked, or other such nonsense.

Lesson of Gloriam: On Angel's Wings - At will you may change your body weight to be equivalent to the weight of your sin. The DM will judge how sinful you are, based on past conduct. A truly light soul can fall like a feather and skip across the surface of a pond with a few dainty taps of their toes to propel them. A thoroughly wicked soul cracks pavement tiles when they tread and could make a carthorse strain to pull them from where they stand.

Ψ - Calcolo
Enthusiastic application of the skills taught at the Drezelli School of Mathematics, whose students can be found in most wine bars after exam-season, gleefully taking eachother apart with algorithmic precision. Requires the use of a cubit rod in the offhand.

1. Technique: Point Control - You can never roll lower than your last attack roll in this combat. i.e. If you rolled an 11 one round, and 7 the next, your second roll is considered to have been an 11. The next round your minimum roll would be 7.
2. Technique: Measure Twice - If you win initiative, you may choose to let your opponent act before you. If you do, ignore any bonus to their AC that comes from any type of armour that has gaps - including scales and the like.
3. Stance: Music of the Primes - When your attack roll comes up 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17 or 19, you deal an additional 1 point of damage, even if the attack would not otherwise hit.
4. Stance: Long Division - The AC you get from Panache is doubled versus arrows and hurled daggers and the like as long as you have not moved in the past round. Seeming to cross an infinite number of divisions between you and the archer, they are very easy to swat aside.

Lesson of Calcolo: Number of the Beast - At the start of each day you have done at least two of the following things the night before that are pleasing to the Devil;

1. Got riotously drunk.
2. Played a game of probability for money.
3. Attended a lecture on one of the natural sciences.
4. Got in a fight.

...roll a d6. You may add or subtract the result of that d6 from any roll you or another makes today, after which it is discarded. If you roll a 6, keep it and roll another d6, up to a total of three dice.

Ψ - Lirippé

Discrete cloak-fighting style popularised by Antigonese Bladewards, designed to neutralise assassins hiding among the fashionable set to target their masters. Requires a cloak or cape of fine quality.

1. Technique: Clean the Blade - An envenomed weapon that attacks you and misses has its poison wiped clean on your cloak.
2. Technique: Toro! - You may apply your Panache bonus to AC to another person within arm's reach. You do not personally benefit from it in any round you use this technique. If you know Clean the Blade, you may apply it on attacks you intercept this way.
3. Technique: Olé! - You may Parry against attacks directed at another person within arm's reach.
4. Stance: Capa y Espada - While in this stance anyone carrying a concealed weapon must make an opposed Wisdom check or you know exactly what they're carrying, and when you Riposte you may choose to disarm your opponent instead of attacking.

Lesson of Lirippé: The Horns - If you die in defence of another, you have a 2 in 6 chance of instead miraculously pulling through, leaving you on 1hp.

Ψ - SoÞwide

Personal style of the wide-eyed barbarian turned sanctioned witch-hunter Aethelwulf the Questioner, who loathes wizards and takes grim delight in putting them to the question.

1. Technique: Fear & Surprise - If you win initiative on the first round of combat you can backstab your target for +4 to Attack and double damage, providing you have enough movement to run up behind them.
2. Stance: Ruthless Efficiency - You deal +2 damage to anyone who has Magic Dice.
3. Stance: Fanatical Devotion - If you are charmed or otherwise mentally compelled the one who charmed you takes d6 psychic damage every round the effect remains active.
4. Stance: Scarlet Robed - While garbed in cardinal's red you add your [level] to Saves vs. unholy magics. This includes most necromancy, all demonology and anything from a witch's spell list, but not fireballs and lightning bolts and the like.

Lesson of SoÞwide: The Question - You have permanent sanpaku eyes. When you defeat someone you may scream a question in their face, they must Save or answer as honestly as they can before they are removed from combat.

Ψ - Scytta

A style of archery perfected by outlaw poachers and bandit woodsmen of the Stonewood Forest, rumoured to have made deals with druids and witches to keep their brigand villages hidden from outsiders. Requires the use of a longbow and stone-headed arrows.

1. Technique: Stag-Piercer - Add your Strength modifier to damage with bowshots within Close range.
2. Technique: Legs & Eyes - Ignore cover penalties from any shields smaller than a pavise.
3. Stance: Hunter's Eye - Each round you spend aiming, reduce the effective range bracket of the target by one step.
4. Stance: Wind Wyrd - Ignore weather-related penalties to shooting, even in howling winds and torrential rain you can find just the right place to put an arrow in the air such that the wind will carry it where you want it. Supernatural weather may force you to make a Save to oppose it, but you still can.

Lesson of Scytta: Fruit of the Yew - Given a day to forage in a forested environment you can manufacture a single poison arrow that deals 4d6 damage or 2d6 on a successful Save. You can have as many poison arrows in existence at any one time as you have Templates.

Nothing Stays Dead Forever - Mushroom Wizard (GLOG)

 Why not just take one spell from DCC and turn it into a whole GLOG wizard? Yeah, lets do that.

Use your favourite GLOG wizard chassis

Starting Equipment: Big silly sadogasa hat, tan-coloured linen robes, wide utility belt covered in tooled leather pouches, 6 empty phials, 2 phials of yellow mold spores, tiny duster bellows, 2 pieces of Sporulated Oddities.

Perk: You can detect and identify funguses, slimes and molds within a 60ft radius without a roll, through a combination of intimate understanding of their growing conditions and a practiced nose. You are proficient in blowguns and poison.

Drawback: When you sleep you experience uncontrollable psychadellic visions, if roused from sleep before you would naturally awaken you act as if under a Confusion spell every round you do not pass a Save vs. Poison, until you either return to sleep or pass 3 tests.

Cantrips:

• Touch a surface to leave behind a bioluminescent slime patch that glows softly whenever something significantly magical (1MD or more worth) comes within 5ft of it.
• Spend an MD to make a useful or edible fungus grow enough to provide 1 dose/meal.
• Instantly cause any liquid that has sugars in it to ferment into crude but respectable alcohol.

Spells:

1. Choking Mold
Your magic drives the omnipresent mold and mildew spores in the area into sudden extraordinary fecundity, until they have filled an area 10'x[dice] diameter with choking, toxic particles. Air-breathing creatures within that area are incapacitated for [sum] rounds by coughing fits unless they make a Save vs. Poison, able to do no more than move their normal walking speed and defend themselves - they still keep their full AC but may not attack, cast spells or use supernatural abilities that require focus and concentration. Hypothetically impossible to cast in extremely clean areas, but the spores you tramp around on your person will usually do the job in that case.

2. Ablative Polypores
The caster causes the dermal yeasts of the target to go into a bloom, covering their skin with a layer of spongy, leathery chitin. The target reduces any physical damage taken by [dice], the spell ends on the next sunrise or when it has absorbed [sum] damage, whichever comes first.

3. Entangling Hyphae
The caster indicates a point of earthen or wooden surface and 30' long whipping tendrils of fungal matter as thick as hemp ropes explode from it, attacking anyone in the area with a bonus equal to the wizard's own attack bonus +[dice]. Anyone successfully attacked is snared and may not move until they have freed themselves by dealing the hyphae a total of [sum] damage with a bladed weapon, hitting automatically. This damage must be dealt seperately for each creature snared. Once the initial explosion of tendrils is over others may enter the area without risk of being attacked. At the end of any round where a creature is still snared they take d6+[dice] damage from the crushing tendrils.

4. Shape Mold
The caster causes thick, rubbery, fungal matter to come into existence where they gesture and forms it into simple solid shapes such as walls, ramps, pillars, blocks, funnels, umbrellas and bridges. The total fungal mass equals [dice] 5' blocks or 10' sheets and are stable as long as their ends rest on solid ground. Mold matter is about as tough as polystyrene - in large blocks it's sturdy enough to bear a man's weight and would take a full minute of work with a bladed weapon to hack through, but the thinner sheets will crumble under any serious weight - they are however air and watertight and look solid enough at first glance, even though anyone with the strength of a goblin or more could easily push their way through.

5. Medishroom
The caster causes the fungal flora of the target to repair their injuries - dermal yeasts growing over wounds like bandages, reducing inflammation and relieving pain. The target heals [sum] points of damage. If cast with 2+ MD the target is also instantly cured of any fungal poison, disease or parasite. If cast with 4+ MD the target also regenerates any lost limbs or organs, and gets a new Save against any non-fungal poisons, diseases or parasites.

6. Psilocybic Vision
Credit to Deus-ex-Parabola's Zouave - though, annoyingly, not the version currently on his blog - for the mechanics of this.
The caster induces a potent and revelatory hallucinatory state on the target, who gets two Saves vs. Magic; the first to throw off any madness or mind-affecting ailments, the second to avoid [sum] rounds of traumatic and violent hallucinations, as a Confusion spell. The target gains a +/-[dice] bonus or penalty to their saves, divided between both as the caster desires.

7. Slimemold Form
The caster disolves their body and gear into a protoplasmic state for [sum] rounds, during which time they can slime under doors or through bars and the like, move along any surface in defiance of gravity and are immune to harm that doesn't come from fire, cold or acid. While in this state they may not attack or cast any other spells and their senses besides touch are quite dull - simple eyespots let them detect the presence and rough direction of light and movement and they can hear as if through a pillow.

8. Puffball
A big purple puffball swells into existence at the targeted point until it reaches the size of a football, then promptly explodes into a cloud of toxic spores. Creatures and objects composed of organic matter (including wooden and flesh constructs and corporeal undead) within a 10'x[dice] diameter area take [sum] damage, Save for half. Creatures and objects destroyed by this damage are reduced to nutritious compost.

9. Sporulate Shroomen
With a wave of their hand and a puff of spores the caster causes [best]+[dice] human-height toadstools to suddenly come into being, shortly afterwards growing crude faces, arms and legs, uprooting themselves and doing the wizard's bidding for [dice] turns, after which they revert to being mundane - if rather large - toadstools. Shroomen have the base stats of 0-level Men-at-Arms in leather armour who deal d6 damage with their clublike fists, but are utterly fearless and gain a bonus to attack, damage and hit points equal to +[dice]. For each MD spent after the first, add one of the following bonuses;

• All Shroomen can form chitinous melee or throwing weapons out of their own corpus once per round. These strike as +0 magical weapons but are otherwise mundane examples of their type from the equipment list. These weapons cannot be seperated from the Shrooman for more than a round without decaying into mulch.
• Their armour class is improved by one step, i.e. from Leather to Chain, Chain to Scale, Scale to Plate.
• Anything that draws breath which starts its round in an adjacent square to a Shrooman must Save vs. Poison or suffer d4 damage.
• Morale checks made in a 20' radius of a Shrooman are made at a [dice] penalty from the clouds of psychogenic spores.

10. Cordyceps Command
The victim of this vile spell must Save vs. Magic or be rendered entirely without a will of their own, obeying the last command given to them regardless of source for [sum] minutes. If the caster wishes they may invest a MD in the victim, which is set aside from their pool and not rolled until the spell is ended - while this MD is invested the caster may percieve through the victim's senses and send them commands telepathically.

11. Chartreuse Destruction
The caster flicks their finger and projects a single droplet of the horrifically deadly green slime at a the target, requiring an attack roll ignoring armour but not dodge bonuses. Victims who do not recieve disease-curing magic must cut, burn or freeze away the affected area by dealing themselves [sum]+[dice] damage within d4 rounds (others may help), or collapse into a pool of green slime, quite dead.

12. The Knowledge & Conversation of Aklo-Myotes, Eater of Death
Meditating on bare earth, the caster comes into contact with Aklo-Myotes - a globe-spanning sentient mycelial mat that is one of the oldest life-forms in existence - it was consuming their flesh that first sparked true intellect in mankind. In return for the wizard's magical energies Aklo-Myotes can perform several useful services. They will flawlessly answer [best] questions related to history, geography, mathematics, biology or chemistry. It is worth remembering that Aklo-Myotes is a being purely of the physical world - it has no spirit or soul to speak of, just a towering but wholly material intellect, and is thus utterly ignorant of spiritual matters. Aklo-Myotes does however pay scrupulous attention to anything related to lifeforms and especially dying things, has perfect memory, is almost omniscient within the sphere of the planet's surface and is very nearly as old as life itself. For greater negotiated payments, ranging from MD being automatically expended to sacrifices, errands and quests undertaken by the caster, Aklo-Myotes can  perform greater feats. This includes assisting with developing new fungal, biomantic, necromantic or geomantic spells, causing enormous natural disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis by rippling its massive body beneath the earth or changing a whole 6-mile hex of terrain into another type over the course of a season, such as draining a swamp into pastoral land or raising hills on previously flat ground.

Mishaps

1. Arcane Allergen: Your body and mind start rejecting your magic, MD return only on a 1 for 24hrs.
2. Urgh: You double-over in helpless nausea for d3 rounds after the spell is cast.
3. Agnosia: You briefly lose the ability to tell people apart - the best you can do is friend and foe, any attack or spell that targets others has a random chance of hitting the intended person in the group for d6 minutes.
4. I feel weird: Gain a random fungal mutation; after [sum] rounds make a Save vs. Magic, on a failure it's permanent.
5. Yarghble: Vomit up a giant pool of proteinous purple liquid in a 10' radius centred on yourself. Anyone fighting in or moving through it must Save vs. Paralysis or fall prone on the slippery mess.
6. Ohshi-!: Mycotoxins briefly induce potent but wholly uncontrolled psychic powers. Everyone within 20' - yourself included - takes a blast of [sum] psychic damage.

Dooms

1. Nocturnal: You take a [Templates] penalty to saving throws made while standing in direct sunlight. You only regain hit points through rest if you sleep during the day.
2. Anyone else getting trails?: At the start of each day, make a Save vs. Magic, on a failure you are completely insensate for d12 hours, lost in phantasmagoric visions. Without curative magic the best anyone can do for you is tie you up and pull you along on a lead until you calm down.
3. The Shroom Doom: The wizard takes root and over the course of a day and a night transforms into a Brain Fungus. Sentient but unable to take any physical action other than shrieking incoherently and only able to sense moving objects within 30' by vibration. After each week the wizard must make a Save vs. Death or go completely mad, Brain Funguses in this state are incapable of rational thought and use their spells to attack anyone coming within their sensory radius.

Avoid your Doom by undergoing an Astral Quest into the centre of your mind, being crowned the Myconid King or gaining a new, better brain.
