Sorcerous Occupations and Services

Sorcerous Occupations and Services

What can sorcerers and other spellcasters do during downtime to earn money? Some spells are quite straightforward for an occupation, but some feel like they could only be used on an adventure. See Jobs (pp. B516-517) for rules on occupations and Occupations (GURPS Low-Tech Companion 3 - Daily Life and Economics, pp. 45-50) for mundane examples.

Sorcery: Extra Afflictions

Sorcery: Extra Afflictions

Some standard Affliction-based debuff effects were not present in the spells I've made, and this is my attempt at fixing this. Cause Pain causes a variable degree of pain. Euphoria causes pleasure. Knockout knocks the subject unconscious. Slow Movement decreases the subject's Move in all mediums. The names are self-explanatory. I've omitted the density increase effect on purpose.
