Sorcery: Personal Animal Spells

Sorcery: Personal Animal Spells

The Animal college does not have that many buff spells, so there's not many personal spells to make.
 
Personal Bear Hug
Keywords: None.
Full Cost: 13 points.
Casting Roll: None.
Range: Self.
Duration: Indefinite.
 
Your musculature become optimized for squeezing, granting you the Constriction Attack advantage (p. B43).
Statistics: Constriction Attack (Sorcery, -15%) [13].
 
Personal Blood Lust
Keywords: None.
Full Cost: 26 points.
Casting Roll: None.
Range: Self.
Duration: Indefinite.
 
You gain the Discriminatory Smell (p. B49), Fearlessness 2 (p. B55), and High Pain Threshold (p. B59) advantages.
Statistics: Discriminatory Smell (Sorcery, -15%) [13] + Fearlessness 2 (Magical, -10%) [4] + High Pain Threshold (Magical, -10%) [9].
 
Personal Catfall
Keywords: None.
Full Cost: 9 points.
Casting Roll: None.
Range: Self.
Duration: Indefinite.
 
You subtract five yards from a fall automatically, if your body and limbs are free to move and twist (treat this as an automatic Acrobatics success – don’t check again for it). In addition, a successful DX roll halves damage from any fall.
Statistics: Catfall (Sorcery, -15%) [9].
 
Personal Feathers
Keywords: None.
Full Cost: 1 or 8 points.
Casting Roll: None.
Range: Self.
Duration: Indefinite.
 
You grow feathers. These prevent sunburn and help shed water, eliminating up to -2 in penalties for being wet – notably for Cold (p. B430). The improved (26-point) version makes you grow thick feathers that also provide DR 2*.
Statistics: Feathers (Sorcery, -15%) [1]. The improved version adds DR 2 (Flexible, -20%; Magical, -10%) [+7].
 
Personal Fur
Keywords: None.
Full Cost: 1 or 8 points.
Casting Roll: None.
Range: Self.
Duration: Indefinite.
 
You grow fur that prevents sunburn. The improved (26-point) version makes you grow thick fur that also provide DR 2*.
Statistics: Fur (Sorcery, -15%) [1]. The improved version adds DR 2 (Flexible, -20%; Magical, -10%) [+7].
 
Personal Hide from Animals
Keywords: None.
Full Cost: 36 or 44 points.
Casting Roll: None.
Range: Self.
Duration: Indefinite.
 
You become invisible to animals. You still makes noise, leaves footprints, and have a scent – and anything you are carrying (up to the Medium encumbrance) becomes invisible too. You get a +9 to Stealth in any situation where being seen would matter, if you are carrying no more than your Medium encumbrance.
Animals using paranormal remote viewing (crystal balls, Clairvoyance, etc.), if such thing is even possible, cannot see you if you would be invisible to their normal vision. Paranormal abilities that detect enemies, life, and so on non-visually can still see you.
Invisibility only works against electromagnetic vision (which encompasses ordinary vision, Infravision, Ultravision, and radar). You do not cast a shadow and do not show up in mirrors.
The basic (36-point) version of this spell ends if you attack any animal. For purposes of this spell, an attack includes any spell targeting a foe or whose area or effect includes a foe. Exactly who is a foe depends on the invisible character's perceptions. Actions directed at unattended objects do not break the spell. Causing harm indirectly is not an attack. Thus, an invisible being can open doors, talk, eat, climb stairs, summon monsters and have them attack, cut the ropes holding a rope bridge while enemies are on the bridge, remotely trigger traps, open a portcullis to release attack dogs, and so forth. If you attack directly, however, you immediately become visible along with all your gear. The improved (44-point) version of this spell eliminates this limitation.
Statistics: Invisibility (Accessibility, Animals Only, -25%; Can Carry Objects, Medium, +50%; Dispels after an attack, -20%; Sorcery, -15%) [36]. The improved version removes the Dispels after an attack limitation from the advantage [+8].
