Spells

Races of the Wild

SUMMON DEVOTED ROC

Conjuration (Summoning)

This spell summons a particularly powerful roc. It appears where you designate (assuming the space is large enough to hold a Gargantuan creature) and acts immediately, on your turn. You may command the roc telepathically as a free action, allowing you to direct its actions as you desire. The roc has normal statistics for a creature of its kind (see page 215 of the Monster Manual), with the addition of a +5 enhancement bonus on its attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws. Its natural weapons are treated as magic weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.

SUMMON DIRE HAWK

Conjuration (Summoning)

This spell summons a dire hawk. It appears where you designate and acts immediately, on your turn. You may command the dire hawk telepathically as a free action, allowing you to direct its actions as you desire.

WOODLAND VEIL

Illusion (Glamer)

This spell makes its subjects blend in with natural surroundings, hiding them and quieting the sounds they make. All targets gain a +5 competence bonus on Hide and Move Silently checks while outdoors in a natural setting. The spell has no effect in urban settings or indoors (including dungeons). Those affected by this spell can see and hear each other and themselves as if unaffected by the spell. Any affected creature moving more than 30 feet from another target loses the bonuses the spell provides.

AERIAL ALACRITY

Transmutation

You become quicker and more maneuverable while airborne. Your fly speed increases by 30 feet, and your maneuverability when flying improves by one category, to a maximum of perfect (see page 20 of the Dungeon Master’s Guide). While airborne, you gain a +1 dodge bonus to Armor Class and on Reflex saves.

DUST TO DUST

Transmutation

A golden ray springs from your pointing finger. You must make a successful ranged touch attack to hit your intended target. A corpse or undead creature struck by the ray takes 1d8 points of damage per two caster levels (maximum 10d8). Any Large or smaller creature reduced to 0 or fewer hit points by this spell is disintegrated, leaving behind only a trace of fine dust. The ray has no effect on objects that are not corpses; thus, the creature’s equipment is unaffected. A creature that makes a successful Fortitude takes half damage.

ENDURING FLIGHT

Transmutation

You can carry more weight aloft while flying, and your flight lasts longer than normal. You can fly at normal speed when wearing medium armor or carrying up to a medium load. If your ability to fly (whether natural or magical) has a limited duration, that duration is doubled. This spell lasts as long as you remain airborne; it ends the moment you land.

MASTERY OF THE SKY

Transmutation [Air]

The air around you shapes itself to assist you and interfere with your foes’ attacks. While airborne, you gain a +2 competence bonus on attack rolls and damage rolls. Your maneuverability becomes perfect, and your movement (whether airborne or not) is unaffected by winds of less than hurricane strength (see page 95 of the Dungeon Master’s Guide).

The winds whipping around you (the equivalent of a windstorm) cause ranged weapon attacks made against you to automatically miss, and even siege weapons take a –4 penalty on attack rolls. Melee attacks made against you by Huge or smaller creatures have a 50% miss chance. Medium or smaller creatures cannot enter your space (such as to bull rush you or tumble through your space). This spell has no effect if cast underwater or in an airless environment.

RAPTOR’S SIGHT

Transmutation

Your visual acuity improves dramatically. You gain a +5 competence bonus on Spot checks. If you have 5 or more ranks in Spot, you take only half the normal range increment penalty for ranged attacks (–1 per range increment instead of –2).

RETURNING WEAPON

Transmutation

The weapon targeted by this spell gains the ability to return to the hand of its thrower (as the returning special ability described on page 225 of the Dungeon Master’s Guide)
