Sorcery: Winged Folk Spells

Sorcery: Winged Folk Spells

Man, it's been a while since I made any sorcery spell! As you know, GURPS Fantasy Folk: Winged Folk came out recently, and it's pretty good, I recommend you buy it (and Pyramid #3-14 to complement it). The magical styles of the winged folk feature three two new spells. Earthbind paralyzes the subject's wings. I already had a spell with that name, so I renamed the old one to Maw of the Earth. Flock of Ravens creates an illusion around the subject that makes it difficult to see and hit. Wrath of the Gods is identical to Lethal Lightning to GURPS Magic: Death Spells.

The subject is protected by a flock of shadowy, semi-real ravens. Vision and vision-based attack rolls against the subject take a -4 penalty.
