This spell calls into existence a magical raft created out of cloud. The caster draws clouds down from the sky and
forms them into a solid raft capable of holding up to five units of soldiers. The raft can be moved around by the
casters will and from the ground looks similar to any other cloud in the sky. It's speed is limited though, and it can
move over 4 provinces every week. After four weeks have passed the cloud dissipates. The can move over any
province as long as it does not go more than 2 provinces away from a province where the caster has a source.

Armored Phalanx
Sphere: Enchantment/Charm
Regency: 10 RP Req'd Holding: 5
Gold: 12 GB Character Level: 10
Duration: Permanent
Designed to raise a unit of armored soldiers to do the mage's bidding. Each casting of this spell creates only one
such unit (regardless of the caster's level). The mage must first purchace a complete set of Plate Armor and weapons
appropriate to the unit to be created, for each "soldier" to be created; this accounts for most of the spell's cost.
At the time of the casting the caster, and one other individual per 6 levels of the caster chosen at the time of the
spells casting develops a telepathic bond with the unit and is capable of issuing it orders. These "commanders" can
never be changed, and telepathic orders may be given only so long as the commander and the unit remain on the
same plane.
Casting this Realm Spell enchants the armor and weapons with a motive force and the capacity to reason; each
individual "soldier" is similar to a Helmed Horror (Monsterous Compendium Annual, Vol. one). It is neither
undead nor a summoned creature. They appear to be warriors completely clad in plate mail.
Casting the spell at the above cost creates a unit with the following War Card statistics:
Armored Phalanx
Move: 2 Melee: 5
Defence: 7 Missile: 4
Morale: X O B
realm54.htmlrealm54.html
respects each individual member of this unit is identical to a Helmed Horror. They do not sleep, eat, speak, and
cannot feel pain. They are ideal guardians, for their loyalty is total and devoid of ambition or emotion.

Awaken Forest
School:
Minimum Caster Level: 7
Enchantment/Charm
Regency: 5 RP/unit Gold: 2 GB/ unit
Required Source: 5 Duration: 1 week/level
This powerful realm spell allows a Sidhelien wizard to awaken the flora and fauna of a particular forest province.
Once awakened, the plants, animals, and faerie creatures of the forest will join with the elves in defending the
province from intruders. Trees will actually uproot themselves and march into battle alongside creatures as small as
insects or as powerful as unicorns or treants. 1 "unit" of forest defenders can be awakened for every 3 levels the
caster has. Thus, a 9th level wizard could awaken 3 units in a province, a 12th level wizard could awaken 4 units in
a province, etc... Once awakened, the forest defenders can only act to battle invaders in the province they were
awakened in. An awakened forest unit will not travel into even an adjacent province, meaning this spell can
typically only be used for defensive purposes. An awakened forest unit has the following war card statistics:
Move=1; Defense=7; Morale = pennant, shield, and sword; Melee=7; Missile=3 (note: the
missile value of an awakened forest unit represents birds, swarming insects, and the ever-present plants of an elven province that
attack foes at every turn, not missiles in the traditional sense). After 1 hit, the Melee value drops to 5. After 2 hits, the Melee
value drops to 3 and the Missile value drops to 2. After 3 hits, the Melee value drops to 1 and the Missile value drops to 1.
Awakened forest units ignore all Fallback or Rout results unless they are caused by magic. Sidhelien wizards will cast awaken
forest in only the most dire circumstances. They are pained by the thought of awakening their beloved forest and placing it in
harms way, and will only do so as a last resort. To simulate the damage done if an awakened forest unit is destroyed in combat,
the Source potential of the province is reduced by 1. 5 years of regrowth are required before the destruction is healed and the
source potential returns to its previous level. The casting wizard can prevent this loss of Source level by mentally willing that an
awakened forest unit disband prior to its total destruction. As a result, a Sidhelien wizard who casts awaken forest will almost
always be physically present at any battle the unit is engaged in to ensure it is not utterly destroyed.
This spell must be powered by an actual source holding in the province in which it is cast. Mebhaighl cannot be channeled via a
ley line or boosted through magical means to power this spell. By Craig Greeson
Create Bridge
Conjuration/Summoning
Regency: 5 Req'd Holding: 3
Gold: 3 Character Level: 5
Duration: 3 Hours
This spell creates a magical bridge that can be used to move troops or a caravan of goods over rivers, dangerous
terrain or a castle's walls. It requires a minimum of 3 mages to cast and takes 5 hours of preparation, with each mage
tending a magical fire that creates large amounts of coloured smoke that will become the bridge. Once the spell is
completed a glowing bridge comes into existence. The bridge is solid and stable but will only remain in for 3 hours.
The bridge has a maximum length of 300 metres, plus 50 metres for every extra mage above the minimum of 3. It
can also have an angle of up to 30 degrees enabling troops to travel the bridge into an enemy castle. The bridge itself
is indestructible while in existence, although those on it are still open to attack.
Create Gate

The Create Gate spell enables the mage to create a temporary gateway between two points. The start and end of the
gateway must be in provinces where the mage has a source however. The gate can be used to transports goods, and
soldiers without any movement cost and in very short periods of time. 2 units an hour can be moved through the
gate.

Llaeddra is the only one. Possible there might be another in her kingdom whom she will allow to use a source for
this purpose.
In Brecht:
While there are no definite levels for these beings, the following are possibilities:
The Fae
Rheulaan Greencloak
The Dragon
Less than a dozen current possible casters. Magic items are still very expensive, but a mage may well be willing to
spend up to three months of his time [a month to research the item, a month to cast the increase source spell, and a
month for this spell] making an item for money and/or political considerations where he would not be willing to give
up a
sizable percentage of his life force. I would charge at least an extra two gold bars per
realm9.htmlrealm9.html
month for the spellcaster's time. [7 * 16 * 25 = 2800 gp, round up.]
Let us say that the regent of Medoere wants to ask High Mage Aelies to make a set of bracers AC2.
First, he wants her to provide assistance as he contests Rogr Aglondier's source in Northvale. This could prove quite
costly in regency -- but at this stage Aelies will settle for 20 regency points and 3 gold bars at
this stage.
Two contests and a rule action later, he does research. Let us say 5 gold bars for this stage.
Then, he gives her specifications for having a special set of bracers crafted by a master metal worker, and a list of
special exotic materials needed - 4 gold bars worth.
Then he casts Enhance Source -- 9 regency points, 2 gold bars
Finally, he is ready to cast the spell -- he requires 16 regency points and 8 gold bars.
Now the regent has her bracers -- at a cost of 45 regency and 22 gold bars, and at least six months of time. [It could
easily have been more.] Since priests of Ruornil may not wear any armor, it would probably be worth it to her, but it
is not an impulse buy.

Conceal Province
School: Enchantment/Charm; Alteration; Illusion/
Phantasm
Regency: 60 / province Req'd Source: 12
Gold: 20 / province Character Level: 18th
Duration: 101 years
Effect: This spell cloaks a province with a very potent effect - entrance into the province is impossible from outside
and the existance
of the province is wiped from the memory of all creatures of 6th level or less, and all those of higher level who fail
their saving throws.
The province will typically appear to have vanished, and to some extent exists in a pocket dimension. A coastal
province will appear to have disappeared, while an inland province will have been replaced with a lake, impassable
mountains or a flat, featureless plain.
Okay, it's a hugely over-powered spell, which probably never need turn up in a campaign, but I could see it
producing some nice Lyonesse-type legends.

Combine Sources
Alteration
Regency: 5 / source Req'd Holding: 0
Gold: 2 / source Character Level: 12
Duration: 1 month
This spell enables a mage to combine smaller sources into one large source for one month following the casting. If a
mage only controlled a large number of small sources by wants to cast a Realm spell needing a large source then this
spell could be very useful. The spell can only join sources in neighbouring provinces, and all sources must be linked
to the casters province by ley lines. For example Rogr Aglondier, mage regent of Ilien can combine his sources in
Ilien, Alamier, Abbatour, Caercas, and Duerlin to give him a level 6 source. The next round he can cast any realm
spell requiring up to a source of 6, but after that turn the combine sources spell is no longer functioning, so he has to
be quick.

Concealed Activity
School: Illusion; Enchantment/Charm
Regency: 10 RP Req'd Source: 5
Gold: 3 GB Caster Level: 4th
Duration: Special
Through a potent combination of illusions and charm spells the caster of this magic is able to conceal the fact that
one domain action took place. This means that no one other than the wizard and the person who performed the
action (if not also the wizard) knows that the action is actually took place. As a result of the enchanment no regent
may bid aganst the concealed
action, nor against this spell.The domain action to be concealed must be taken on the action round following the
casting of the spell.
The result of this spell is permanent until something occurs that would reveal the occurence of the domain action
that was concealed, at which point all effects are negated. A regent would for example, realize that one of his
provinces had been invaded by a concealed declare war action when he discovered that he was no longer collecting
regency nor taxes from the
province; another regent could discover a concealed rule action when he realizes that he cannot rule his own holding
because the slot he thought was open has in fact been occupied. Basically, any event in which concealed action has a
visible effect negates the spell.

Death Hunt
School: Conjuration/Summoning
Regency: 2 RP/level of target Req'd Source: 6
Gold: 5 GB Character Level: 12th
Duration: 1 action round / level of caster.
By employing this spell the caster summons a small group of extra planer hunters (commonly Invisible stalkers or
the equivalent). The caster summons 1 plus 1 for every 3 levels. The Death Hunt moves 1 province per action round
(including 1 on the action round summoned) always taking the shortest route to reach the target (DMs option if more
than one choice). If the Death Hunt reaches the province of the target the target of the spell must make a save vs.
death or be killed by the Death Hunt. The caster may delay the strike of the Death Hunt and impose a -1 penalty on
the target for each action round that the Death Hunt remains in the same province as the target, once the Death Hunt
has reached the target movement will not negate the save penalty. This spell requires the caster to have some
personal effect of the target (such as hair, nail clippings, blood ect). The spell must be cast in the
source province, not in one connected to in by a ley line. If the target is blooded he recieves +2 on the save. If the
target is in a province where he rules or has holdings he recieves a +3 on the save.

Illusionary Armada
School: Illusion/Phantasm
Regency: 1/2 GB cost of ships
Req'd Source: 4 (must be costal)
Gold: 1/3 total hits of ships
Caster Level: 8th
Duration: 1 month + 1 week/level
Effect: This spell is the Realm version of the Illusion Battle Spells from the War Cards. It creates an illusionary
armada of warships. The illusionary ships must stay in the same sea or ocean area as the caster and thier actions are
controled by him. Typically the illusionary ships mingle with real ones. If boarded the boarded ship is dispelled. If
ordered to fire missile weapons, the illusionary ship disapears if the missile hits. A miss however, creates an
illusionary splash. If an illusionary ship is it with enemy missile weapons it is not dispelled. It is programmed to
create illusionary effects of being hit. If hit often enough to be sunk, it may acitvate an illusionary sinking program,
at the caster's choice. A caster may maintain the ship as long as he likes but a ship that looks like swiss cheese and
still floats is obviously an illusion. Battle
spells of 5th level or higher cast on an illusionary ship dispel it. Lower level spells it is programed to handle.
A caster may create 5 GB of ships per level. Illusionists may create 6 GB of ships per level. Permenency may be
used on this spell but it only increases the duration to Permenant. Ships may still be dispelled by being boarded.
Gold Bar cost is equal to the total "Hits" of the illusionary ships divided by three, rounded down. Thus a Zebec
would cost 1 GB. RP cost is equal to what the ships would nromally cost to build divided by 2, rounded up. Thus
our Zebec would cost 9 RP.
Example: A 10th level caster could create two galleons, and four cogs. This would cost him 25 RP and 5 GB. They
would last for one month and ten war moves or one domain turn plus a war move.

Masking Shadows
Sphere: Illusion/Phantasm
Regency: 3 RP Req'd Holding: 3
Gold: 1 GB Character Level: 5
Duration: Permanent (Until Dispel Realm Magic is
succssfully cast).
This spell creates semi-real illusions, permanent illusions (simmilar to the spells Shades, Shadow Monsters, and
Demi-Shadow Monsters). However, the illusions created are limited to purely cosmetic effects (I.E. they cannot
actively cause damage, though through dangerous areas can be created, into which the unwarry may stumble). The
spell can be used to create landscaping effects, or to alter the appearance of creatures. Used on terrain, it can affect
the appearance of a province, but limited to "realistic" transformations, I.E. no cloudscapes, burning hells (though
volcanic stuff is possible), etc. Cast on creatures, it can affect up to one unit per 4 levels of the caster), altering their
appearace radically, but not affecting their combat abilities). The effects of the spell are mainly prestige/disguise
related, allowing the caster to re-
shape their surroundings to suit their tastes. A limited (unquantifiable) diplomacy benifit, may result (DM ruling).
Because the illusions are constructed out of shadowstuff, they feel real to the touch, and have some of the benifits of
the normal materials. Any resources (trees, etc) used as building materials (or whatever), however, will be fairly
unstable, and of low quality. Fine craftsmen will instinctively refuse to deal in such low-grade materials, even
though they won't be able to put their fingers on why (thus, no casting this spell to create a forest of mohogany trees
or a vein of diamonds or gold, then "cashing in" on the windfall).

Mebhaighl Chaos
School: Alteration, Necromancy.
Regency: 10 RP / population
Req'd Source: 2
level
Caster Level: 20+ (or
Gold: 5 GB
Dragon)
Duration: 1 Year
This ancient spell is one that is whispered about wizards. Some think it a legend, or a myth, while others search for
ways to duplicate its effects, so far with little success. The spell Death Plague was created by an Elven wizard who
was attempting to research this spell, and even its deadly effects are nothing compared to Mebhaighl Chaos.
The spell was created many millennia ago by the Dragon sorcerer Morkrashin who plagued northern Aduria before
even Elves walked on Aebrynis. So powerful was he that even now he is known, if only in legends. For Morkrashin
was also the creator of the evil Skissshar race who dwell in the deserts of Northern Aduria, between the Empire and
Cerilia. It was this race that has carried his memory into the modern age, and the Skissshar worship the Dragon as
a god, and pray for the day he will return to lead them into battle once more.
In the ruins of ancient Giant villages can also be found mention of the Dragon, and of the effects this spell had on
the regions where it was cast. In one old ruin was found a mural that depicts the battle between the Giants and the
Dragon and it continues to show what happened to those effected by what the Giants called the Breath of
Morkrashin.
The spell effects the very nature of Mebhaighl itself, making the land poisonous to Humans and other intelligent
creatures. It is as though the land rejects the presence of intelligent beings, and should they remain in the province
then they will die a few days after it is cast. As long as there is a level 2 source (which can not be powered by a ley
line) in the province then it can be cast anywhere, and it will kill every being with an intelligence over 2, starting
with the most intelligent. Only the caster is immune to its effects.
Any being with an intelligence of 20 or more will die instantly and those with lower intelligence will survive for one
day for each point of intelligence below 20. So a person with an intelligence of 5 will realm66b.html
realm66b.html
live for fifteen days. If however the effected person leaves the province before they die they will recover, although
the person will require one week complete bed rest for each day they spent in the province. There is no known way
of preventing the spells effect, for although the spell itself is magical the effects are caused by the natural
Mebhaighl, and not the spell itself. The spell merely alters the nature of the Mebhaighl for a year or so.
The spell works by altering the Mebhaighl to tune it into the brainwaves of the caster, and the caster only. As each
person is unique then the land itself turns against any intelligent being that does not match the casters thoughts,
which is every other being in the province. The air become poisonous to those effected, as does everything they eat
and drink in the province. As Mebhaighl flows through every living thing in the province then there is no way to
escape. Those effected must leave or die.
In game term consider the effects of the spell as a poison that will kill everyone in number of day derived from their
intelligence (Days = 20 - Int). The population level of the province is reduced to 0, so a 3/4 province would be
reduced to a 0/4 province in the space of eighteen days at the most. There are no limits on the number of people who
are killed, if any
realm66.htmlrealm66.html
army units are also present in the province then they will also be destroyed.
As for the province itself there is little effect, apart for the removal of all the intelligent creatures. Animals and
plants are not effected by this spell as they are considered part of the province's natural environment.
This spell can not be cast unless the caster actually has a level 2 source in the province. A level 0 source and a ley
line is not enough, it must be an actually physical source. It can also not be cast if another spell is currently being
powered by the provinces Mebhaighl. For example if a warding spell was in effect then it could not be activated.
Once the spell has been cast then it can not be stopped. A dispel realm magic spell cast after the Mebhaighl Chaos
spell has not effect at all, as the spell itself is instantaneous, and only its effects last for the next year.
The material component of this spell is 5 GB worth of crushed sapphire that must be mixed with the sap of a tree
and various other ingredients. The mixture is then spread on the physical manifestation of the source holding that is
to power the spell.

Mebhaighl Surge
School: Alteration
Regency: 5 RP/magic
Req'd Source: 1
potential level
Gold: 1 GB/magic potential
Caster Level: 18
level
Duration: 1 action round/level
This powerful realm spell acts similar to the Poison Source spell in that it disrupt the normal flow of Mebhaighl
through the province, but its effects on someone who tries to draw on that flow is quite different. When Mebhaighl
Surge is cast then the Mebhaighl of that province becomes dangerous to use, and anyone drawing on its power,
either through a source or a ley line faces the possibility of serious injury or even death.
Casting the spell is expensive, although not as much as some other realm spells. For every level of magic potential
of a province then the spell costs 5 RP and 1 GB. The cost for the entire province must be paid or the spell, it is not
possible just to effect one or two levels of sources. The money is used to create special totems
that must be place around the province where the spell is to be cast.
The spell works by making the Mebhaighl surge whenever someone tries to tap it for the casting of a realm spell.
This surge usually appears in the form of a display of crackling energy, or even strange mutations in the local plant
and animal life. The wizard who is attempting to cast the realm spell is caught in the centre of this chaos and takes
the brunt of the energy discharge.
Normal magic does not draw on enough Mebhaighl to be effected by this spell, so only realm spells cause this surge
of energy. Wizards casting high level magic (level 7+) will notice that something strange is occurring however,
perhaps sparks flying from the ground around them when they cast their spells. No damage is taken however, and
the spell works as it normally would.
The table below shows the damage taken by a wizard casting a realm spell in the effected province. The effect of the
Mebhaighl surge depends on the level of source the wizard is attempting to use.
realm71b.html
realm71b.html
realm71.htmrealm71.htm
7 The energy from the discharge is so powerful that the wizard is burnt to a crisp. Protection
from fire or magic will work, but only is it is provided by a permanent magical item, spells will
not do. The item is destroyed by the power of the spell though.
8 The wizard is instantly vaporised, along with everything within ten metres of his location.
There is no saving throw against this effect, and no know spell that can prevent the wizard
death.
9 The wizard is instantly vaporised, along with everything within a hundred metres of his
location. There is no saving throw against this effect, and no know spell that can prevent the
wizard death.
* In all cases, even if the wizard survives the attempt, the realm spell fails as the energy that was to power it was
lost. Also the wizard is unable to cast another realm spell in this province for 1 full month after the first attempt. Of
course the Mebhaighl Surge spell may still be in effect then, and the next attempt to cast a spell may end with the
same result.

Move Land
School: Invocation/Evocation, Elemental Earth
Regency: Special Req'd Source: 4
Gold: Special Caster Level: 13th
Duration: Permanent
Move land is a very powerful version of the Dig spell. Using this spell a wizard may move large amounts of earth.
With this spell a river could be widened (as was done in Ilien), a canal could be dough, a coast could be altered, or
even an island created. The spell may only affect coastal provinces and then only a stretch of river one province long
(or a canal that crosses a province). If it is cast on a river/canal that is not connected to the ocean or a large lake, it
drops the draft of ships the adjacent province-length of river (if there are multiple it is caster's choice) can handle.*
The regency and gold costs vary with how much earth needs to be moved. Here are my cost suggestions:
Effect GBs RPs Caster
Level
River enlarge one 5 10 13

Canal Dug*# 5 10 13
Sea Coast Altered 5 10 14
(1/8 of province size

Increased to support one deeper draft as per Ships and Rivers rules This use may be reversed to support fewer drafts.
Rivers may not be filled in completely unless their source is stopped or there is an alternate route available.
# Only one draft/level of canal may be built per spell
The spell’s cost (RP and GB) is modified based on what sort of terrain is being effected. When using this spell to fill
in a river or cannal use the multiplier in parantheses ( ).

Designed to raise a unit of Juju zombie soldiers to do the mage's bidding. Each casting of this spell creates only one
such unit (regardless of the caster's level). Unlike Legion of the Dead, the caster need not remain with the unit to
insure its continued existance. A powerful bond will be created between the caster and the unit, and it will follow the
commands of anyone the mage designates, until he chooses to appoint a new leader or resume command himself.
The individual members of the unit have the same abilities and drawbacks of a norman Juju Zombie, with the
exception that they cannot be Commanded by an evil priest so long as the mage is alive (though they can be Turned

Pest Infestation
School: Conjuration/Summoning
Regency: 1 RP/province (2 for giant) Req'd Source: 4
Character Level:
Gold: 1 GB/10 provinces (2 for giant)
3rd
Duration: One Turn
This spell infests any number of adjacent provinces (providing one of them includes or is conected via ley-line to the
level 4 source) with a terrible infestation from a certain type of pest-like vicious (or giant type of)(some ideas are
rats, insects are also good, bats would be also possible, I´m sure you guys got the point).As a result the province
affected is considered to be one level lower for tax collection purposes, loyalty goes down one level (automatically -
which returns if the infestation ends or is controled) and there is a 10% chance the province level goes down one
level permanently.
If the summoned animals are of the giant type the case gets worse:in adition to the previous effects all law holdings
in the target provinces are considered to be
contested while the infestation subsists and the chance of level decreasing goes up to 20%. In
this case (and only in this case) it is possible to exterminate the plague using army units (if this is done with
successin the first month after casting the penalties do not get to be aplied) - one is necessary per affected province
and it automatically takes one hit. The loyalty does not return at the end of the infestation in this case (only if it is
controled).

+ RP cost of effect Spell whatever is needed by effect
spell)
Gold: 3 GB per two province Caster Level: 13th
(rounded up) + GB cost of
the effect spell
Duration: Permanent (until effect is triggered)
This is a version of the 6th level spell Contingency. Although the actual casting of the spell takes only one week, the
other three are needed to prepare the effect spell. This spell may affect only provinces where the caster as a source
or ley line. The person whose domain is being targeted must be present for the month. This realm spell functions
similar to the 6th level spell. Only realm spells that require a caster level equal to or less than 1/3 of the level of the
caster of the spell and no more than 10th level caster requirement may be used with Realm Contingency. The RP
and GB costs vary with the number of provinces affected. The caster may dispel the spell at will.
The source from which this spell is cast will need to constantly supply energy to Realm Contingency to keep the
spell from fading. For every two level of source the effect spell needs, Realm Contingency requires to keep itself
going. The caster’s source is considered to be dropped in level, for purposes of RP collection and realm spells, while
this spell claims the rest of the source. This may be done through a ley line, so a spell requiring a source (2) to
maintain with Contingency could take its source levels from the caster’s level (1) source and from his source (3)
which is connected by a ley line.
A realm is not limited in the number of contingencies it can have but many can severely drain a wizard’s power.

This spell is placed upon one or more ships for the purposes of enabling those vessels to fly and travel through the

would spend 15 RP and 6 GB.
The air transport spell causes the effected vessels to travel at the speed of three provinces a week. At the end of the
duration the magic fails and causes any ship still flying to crash down with possibly horrible results.

Sidhelien Deception
School: Illusion/PhantasmMinimum Caster Level: 5
Regency: 5 RP/province Gold: 2 GB/province
Required Source: 2 Duration: 1 month/caster level
This spell allows a Sidhelien wizard to mask any elven settlements in a province with a powerful illusion. Once it is
cast, any elven dwellings or structures in the province appear to simply be a natural part of the forest to non-elves
who were not in the area at the time the spell was cast. If an outsider observes any Sidhelien going about their daily
routines, it appears to them as if the elves are simply wandering a stretch of forest in which no settlement exists. The
caster can affect 1 province for every 3 levels he/she has, provided the additional RP and GB are expended.

Sidhelien's Defense
Sphere: Enchanment/Charm
Regency: 5 RP / Unit Req'd Holding: 5/2* Special
Gold: 2 GB / Unit Character Level: 9
Duration: 1 Turn + 1 action round / level.
Sidhelien's Defense allows an elven mage to cause the natural plant and animal life of one or more provinces to
show life and actively move in defense of an elven nation. forest province. Once cast, the plants, animals, and
mythical creatures of the forest will join together to form units of magical defenders. Treants, animated trees,
animals, birds, grasses, insects, vines, pegasus, and other creatures will put aside any differences the races may have
with one another to obey the wishes of the caster. A lightly forested province can muster a maximum of 10 units
while a heavily forested porvince can muster a maximum of 20 units.
Once the provinces have been awakened, the Sidhelien's Defendors can act to battle invaders. Much like levies, if
they die in a province that they were notmustered in the muster province suffers 4
devastation points (Taline, Player's Secrets of page.24) After a total of twenty devestation points the province source
potential drops by one. An awakened forest unit has the following war card statistics:
Full: Move=1; Defense=7; Morale =pennant, shield, and sword; Melee=7; Missile=3
Awakened forest units ignore all Fallback or Rout results unless they are caused by magic.
One Hit: Melee= 5
Two Hits: Melee= 3; Missile: 2
Three Hits:Melee= 1; Missile: 1.
This spell must be powered by a level five source holding in the province in which it is cast. The spell energy may
then be used in the province of casting and it can also be channeled to any province that has a connected ley line.
The destination province or provinces of this spell must be of a level 2 source rating or higher to draw the energy of
this spell. If a regent has ley lines connecting from the casting province and also to the destination province(s) then
he need not be present as his spell energy will travel through the ley line awakening the natural source value for use
of this spell. In this way a sidhelien kingdom may summon it's forest's protector's in many provinces at once if each
individual province meets the required source rating.

The Sidhelien have developed this spell to protect the borders of their forests from hostile neighbors. When this spell
is cast in a forest province the area becomes impassable to outsiders. Trees and vines seem to block an intruders way
at every turn, forest paths seem to turn back upon themselves, and interlopers find themselves wandering back to the
area where they entered the forest after a few short minutes. Creatures native to the area, including elves, are
immune to the effects of this spell. As with the standard warding spell, a wizard or priest with appropriate magical
capabilities has a 50% chance of successfully leading up to 1 person per level through the warded province.
Note: This spell was initially developed by Princess Niobhe of Innishiere, and is first mentioned in the TSR product
Cities of the Sun.

Steal Ley Line
School: Alteration.
Regency: Special Req'd Source: 3
Gold: Special Caster Level: 15
Duration: Permanent
With this very powerful realm spell the caster is able to take control of ley lines belonging to other wizards. Before
this spell can be cast though the wizard must control all the sources in the province he casts it in. If the province is a
1/6 province then the wizard must control all six source levels. No other wizard must control even a 0 level source,
or the spell with not work. Once this condition is met then the wizard uses his intimate knowledge of the Mebhaighl
flow in the province to steal control of ley lines enemy wizard have dared to create through his domain.
Example: An enemy wizard has a ley line from the Spiderfell to Ilien. A powerful wizard in Medoere with a level 3
source in Caerwil cast this spell to gain control of the ley line. The spell succeeds and the Medoere wizard now has
control of the ley line. It now is effectivily two new ley lines, both originating at his source. One goes to the
Spiderfell, while the other runs
south into Ilien.
The cost of the spell is equal to the basic cost of the ley line, not including any hook ups that have been added. If a
ley line crosses three provinces then it the spell will cost the same as it would to create a ley line over the same area,
or 3 GB and 3 RP. Any extensions that have been added to the original ley line over the years can not be claimed
with this spell. The caster would need to cast another spell to claim them, after meeting the condition above first of
course.
Ley Lines effected by a Protect Ley Line spell gain a saving throw against this spell, in much the same way as they
do against a Sunder Ley Line spell.
Due to the high level requirement few wizards have ever even heard of this spell, let alone had the opportunity to see
it in action. It is believed that some of the more powerful Elven wizards, including the High Mage Aelies may have
copies of it, but to the if he has then he has never cast it.
The creator of this spell is believed to be an ancient Elven wizard of Lluabraight who developed it to gain control of
the ancient ley lines that crossed the land in the magic rich north. These ley lines, all linked to powerful sources,
were believed created by Giant, or
realm72b.html

perhaps even ancient Dragon sorcerers. These ancient ley lines were also linked to the Elven artefacts known as the
Gems of Arborea using this powerful spell.
However this took place nearly three thousand years ago and the name of the spells creator has been lost. Since that
time only Elves have been known to cast this spell, but it is rumoured that a human mage copied it around five
hundred years ago. Who this mage was, and where the copy now lies is not known. If it were found it would be of
little value as few mages of real power exist in the human lands. Several of the Awnsheghlien would be interested in
getting hold of a copy though, especially the Gorgon and the Magian.

Travelling Gate

crossed
Gold: 2x10 GB gate + 2
Caster Level: 10
GB/province
Duration: Maintenance of 1 RP/season
This useful realm spell permits to link 2 far away provinces, allowing nearly instantaneous travel between them.
Distance is irrelevant, as long as the linking gates exist. People and small caravans (that permits 1 trade route) can
freely use the gate to be transported from point A to point B. However, in the case of armies, the
TRANSPORTATION realm spell is needed (see note below). The principle is somewhat simple, but it needs many
components to its realization.
First, in each province to be linked, a source must be controlled by the caster, and in one of them, at least a level 5
must be present. Second, after having secured those sources, a leyline must be created, for it will be the only thing
that will assure the transportation
.Lastly, at any time before the casting of the spell, a 10GB physical construction is needed to concentrate the
magical energies permitting the gate to manifest. It can have nearly any form but usually requires 2 columns covered
with runes (for examples : obelisks, dolmens, pyramids, trees, etc., just use your imagination). The cost includes the
magical preparations to be made, the carving of the runes, the materials (stones, granite or whatever you fancy) and
the time to do it. Between those, a space of no more than 15 feet is to be considered, so that the gate appears in-
between. Remark that one such gate will be needed at the starting province and another at the end of the gate.
Once all of those steps have been made, the magi can cast the spell. However the price is high enough. For each
provinces crossed, two GB and two RP are to be paid. So, if the targeted province is 3 provinces away, 6 GBs and 6
RPs must be spend, in addition of the leyline and the physical constructions.
realm74b.html
realm74b.html
Concerning the TRANSPORTATION realm spell, the already existing link permits an enhance transportation. So,
anytime that spell is cast, in conjonction with an existing gate, the cost is reduced by 1 GB and 1 RP, to a minimum
of 1GB, RP.
If the optionnal leyline powerdown is in use, this render the gate unoperationnal. When the leyline powerup, it will
reactivate.
But maintaining such a gate requires a constant expenditure of 1RP per season. If, at any time, it isn’t paid, the spell
will collapse. Then, the spell will have to be recast again.
