Acid Splash
Conjuration (Creation) [Acid] 1 standard action SRD
None - No Duskblade 0, Sor/Wiz 0, Wmg 0 V, S
Instant Close General
Effect: One missile of acid

Orb deals 1d3 acid damage.

You fire a small orb of acid at the target. You must succeed on a ranged touch attack to hit your target. The orb deals 1d3 points of acid damage.

Arcane Mark
Universal 1 standard action SRD
None - No HB 1, Sor/Wiz 0, Wuj 0 V, S
Permanent 0 ft. General
Effect: One personal rune or mark, all of which must fit within 1 sq. ft.

Inscribes a personal rune (visible or invisible).

This spell allows you to inscribe your personal rune or mark, which can consist of no more than six characters. The writing can be visible or invisible. An arcane mark spell enables you to etch the rune upon any substance without harm to the material upon which it is placed. If an invisible mark is made, a detect magic spell causes it to glow and be visible, though not necessarily understandable.

See invisibility, true seeing, a gem of seeing, or a robe of eyes likewise allows the user to see an invisible arcane mark. A read magic spell reveals the words, if any. The mark cannot be dispelled, but it can be removed by the caster or by an erase spell.

If an arcane mark is placed on a living being, normal wear gradually causes the effect to fade in about a month.

Arcane mark must be cast on an object prior to casting instant summons on the same object (see that spell description for details).

Candlelight
    Ghostwalk Web
  Arc 0, Brd 0, Clr 0, Drd 0, Sor/Wiz 0  
    6 hours

Cast a 5-foot radius light from the point touched.

Dancing Lights
Evocation [Light] 1 standard action SRD
None - No Arc 0, Beguiler 0, Brd 0, Duskblade 0, Shu 0, Sor/Wiz 0, Wuj 0 V, S
1 min. (D) Medium General
Effect: Up to four lights, all within a 10-ft.-radius area

Creates torches or other lights.

Depending on the version selected, you create up to four lights that resemble lanterns or torches (and cast that amount of light), or up to four glowing spheres of light (which look like will-o'-wisps), or one faintly glowing, vaguely humanoid shape. The dancing lights must stay within a 10-foot-radius area in relation to each other but otherwise move as you desire (no concentration required): forward or back, up or down, straight or turning corners, or the like. The lights can move up to 100 feet per round. A light winks out if the distance between you and it exceeds the spell's range.

Dancing lights can be made permanent with a permanency spell.

Daze
Enchantment (Compulsion) [Mind-Affecting] 1 standard action SRD
Will negates - Yes Arc 0, Beguiler 0, Brd 0, Shu 0, Sor/Wiz 0, Wuj 0 V, S, M
1 round Close General
Target: One humanoid creature of 4 HD or less

Humanoid creature of 4 HD or less loses next action.

This enchantment clouds the mind of a humanoid creature with 4 or fewer Hit Dice so that it takes no actions. Humanoids of 5 or more HD are not affected. A dazed subject is not stunned, so attackers get no special advantage against it.

Detect Magic
Divination 1 standard action SRD
None - No Adp 0, APeace 0, Arc 0, Beguiler 0, Blg 0, Brd 0, Clr 0, Drd 0, Duskblade 0, HB 1, Hlr 0, Hoard 1, Shu 0, Sor/Wiz 0, Wuj 0 V, S
Concentration, up to 1 min./level (D) 60 ft. General
Area: Cone-shaped emanation

Detects spells and magic items within 60 ft.

You detect magical auras. The amount of information revealed depends on how long you study a particular area or subject.

1st Round: Presence or absence of magical auras.

2nd Round: Number of different magical auras and the power of the most potent aura.

3rd Round: The strength and location of each aura. If the items or creatures bearing the auras are in line of sight, you can make Spellcraft skill checks to determine the school of magic involved in each. (Make one check per aura; DC 15 + spell level, or 15 + half caster level for a nonspell effect.)

Magical areas, multiple types of magic, or strong local magical emanations may distort or conceal weaker auras.

Aura Strength: An auras power depends on a spells functioning spell level or an items caster level. If an aura falls into more than one category, detect magic indicates the stronger of the two.

 Aura Power
Spell or Object Faint Moderate Strong Overwhelming
Functioning spell (spell level) 3rd or lower 4th - 6th 7th - 9th 10th+ (deity-level)
Magic item (caster level) 5th or lower 6th - 11th 12th - 20th 21st+ (artifact)

Lingering Aura: A magical aura lingers after its original source dissipates (in the case of a spell) or is destroyed (in the case of a magic item). If detect magic is cast and directed at such a location, the spell indicates an aura strength of dim (even weaker than a faint aura). How long the aura lingers at this dim level depends on its original power:

Original Strength Duration of Lingering Aura
Faint 1d6 rounds
Moderate 1d6 minutes
Strong 1d6x10 minutes
Overwhelming 1d6 days

Outsiders and elementals are not magical in themselves, but if they are summoned, the conjuration spell registers.

Each round, you can turn to detect magic in a new area. The spell can penetrate barriers, but 1 foot of stone, 1 inch of common metal, a thin sheet of lead, or 3 feet of wood or dirt blocks it.

Detect magic can be made permanent with a permanency spell.

Disrupt Undead
Necromancy [Positive] 1 standard action SRD
None - Yes Arc 0, Duskblade 0, Glory 1, Shu 0, Sor/Wiz 0, Wmg 0, Wuj 0 V, S
Instant Close General
Effect: Ray

Deals 1d6 damage to one undead.

You direct a ray of positive energy. You must make a ranged touch attack to hit, and if the ray hits an undead creature, it deals 1d6 points of damage to it.

Electric Jolt
    SPC

Flare
Evocation [Light] 1 standard action SRD
Fortitude negates - Yes Arc 0, Blg 0, Brd 0, Drd 0, Duskblade 0, Shu 0, Sor/Wiz 0, Wuj 0 V
Instant Close General
Effect: Burst of light

Dazzles one creature (-1 on attack rolls).

This cantrip creates a burst of light*. If you cause the light to burst directly in front of a single creature, that creature is dazzled for 1 minute unless it makes a successful Fortitude save. Sightless creatures, as well as creatures already dazzled, are not affected by flare.

Ghost Sound
Illusion (Figment) 1 standard action SRD
Will disbelief (if interacted with) - No Adp 0, Arc 0, Asn 1, Beguiler 0, Blg 0, Brd 0, Duskblade 0, Hoard 1, Shu 0, Slayer of Domiel 1, Sor/Wiz 0, Wuj 0 V, S, M
1 round/level (D) Close General
Effect: Illusory sounds

Figment sounds.

Ghost sound allows you to create a volume of sound that rises, recedes, approaches, or remains at a fixed place. You choose what type of sound ghost sound creates when casting it and cannot thereafter change the sounds basic character.

The volume of sound created depends on your level. You can produce as much noise as four normal humans per caster level (maximum twenty humans). Thus, talking, singing, shouting, walking, marching, or running sounds can be created. The noise a ghost sound spell produces can be virtually any type of sound within the volume limit. A horde of rats running and squeaking is about the same volume as eight humans running and shouting. A roaring lion is equal to the noise from sixteen humans, while a roaring dire tiger is equal to the noise from twenty humans.

Ghost sound can enhance the effectiveness of a silent image spell.

Ghost sound can be made permanent with a permanency spell.

Light
Evocation [Light] 1 standard action SRD
None - No Adp 0, APeace 0, Arc 0, Artificer 1, Brd 0, Clr 0, Drd 0, HB 1, Hlr 0, Shu 0, Sor/Wiz 0, Wmg 0, Wuj 0 V, M/DF
10 min./level (D) Touch 1 hour
Target: Object touched

Object shines like a torch.

This spell causes an object to glow like a torch, shedding bright light in a 20-foot radius (and dim light for an additional 20 feet) from the point you touch. The effect is immobile, but it can be cast on a movable object. Light taken into an area of magical darkness does not function.

A light spell (one with the light descriptor) counters and dispels a darkness spell (one with the darkness descriptor) of an equal or lower level.

Mage Hand
Transmutation 1 standard action SRD
None - No Arc 0, Brd 0, Shu 0, Sor/Wiz 0, Wuj 0 V, S
Concentration Close General
Target: One nonmagical, unattended object weighing up to 5 lb.

5-pound telekinesis.

You point your finger at an object and can lift it and move it at will from a distance. As a move action, you can propel the object as far as 15 feet in any direction, though the spell ends if the distance between you and the object ever exceeds the spells range.

Mending
Transmutation 1 standard action SRD
Will negates (harmless, object) - Yes (harmless, object) Adp 0, APeace 0, Arc 0, Brd 0, Clr 0, Drd 0, Hlr 0, Shu 0, Sor/Wiz 0, Wuj 0 V, S
Instant 10 ft. 6 hours
Target: One object of up to 1 lb.

Makes minor repairs on an object.

Mending repairs small breaks or tears in objects (but not warps, such as might be caused by a warp wood spell). It will weld broken metallic objects such as a ring, a chain link, a medallion, or a slender dagger, providing but one break exists.

Ceramic or wooden objects with multiple breaks can be invisibly rejoined to be as strong as new. A hole in a leather sack or a wineskin is completely healed over by mending. The spell can repair a magic item, but the items magical abilities are not restored. The spell cannot mend broken magic rods, staffs, or wands, nor does it affect creatures (including constructs).

No Light
    Book of Vile Darkness
  Arc 0, Brd 1, Clr 0, Sor/Wiz 0  
    5 minutes

Prevents normal light from illuminating.

Open/Close
Transmutation 1 standard action SRD
Will negates (object) - Yes (object) Beguiler 0, Brd 0, Sor/Wiz 0, Wuj 0 V, S, F
Instant Close General
Target: Object weighing up to 30 lb. or portal that can be opened or closed

Opens or closes small or light things.

You can open or close (your choice) a door, chest, box, window, bag, pouch, bottle, barrel, or other container. If anything resists this activity (such as a bar on a door or a lock on a chest), the spell fails. In addition, the spell can only open and close things weighing 30 pounds or less. Thus, doors, chests, and similar objects sized for enormous creatures may be beyond this spells ability to affect.

Preserve Organ
    Book of Vile Darkness
  Arc 0, Clr 0, Drd 0, Sor/Wiz 0  
    24 hours

Protects one detached organ from decay for 24 hours.

Ray of Frost

Ray deals 1d3 cold damage.

A ray of freezing air and ice projects from your pointing finger. You must succeed on a ranged touch attack with the ray to deal damage to a target. The ray deals 1d3 points of cold damage.

Read Magic

10 min./level Personal General
Target: You

Read scrolls and spellbooks.

By means of read magic, you can decipher magical inscriptions on objectsbooks, scrolls, weapons, and the likethat would otherwise be unintelligible. This deciphering does not normally invoke the magic contained in the writing, although it may do so in the case of a cursed scroll. Furthermore, once the spell is cast and you have read the magical inscription, you are thereafter able to read that particular writing without recourse to the use of read magic. You can read at the rate of one page (250 words) per minute. The spell allows you to identify a glyph of warding with a DC 13 Spellcraft check, a greater glyph of warding with a DC 16 Spellcraft check, or any symbol spell with a Spellcraft check (DC 10 + spell level).

Read magic can be made permanent with a permanency spell.

Resistance

Enlarge Person
Transmutation 1 round SRD
Fortitude negates - Yes Sor/Wiz 1, Strength 1, Transformation 1 V, S, M
1 min./level (D) Close 5 minutes
Target: One humanoid creature

Humanoid creature doubles in size.

This spell causes instant growth of a humanoid creature, doubling its height and multiplying its weight by 8. This increase changes the creatures size category to the next larger one. The target gains a +2 size bonus to Strength, a -2 size penalty to Dexterity (to a minimum of 1), and a -1 penalty on attack rolls and AC due to its increased size.

A humanoid creature whose size increases to Large has a space of 10 feet and a natural reach of 10 feet. This spell does not change the targets speed.

If insufficient room is available for the desired growth, the creature attains the maximum possible size and may make a Strength check (using its increased Strength) to burst any enclosures in the process. If it fails, it is constrained without harm by the materials enclosing it the spell cannot be used to crush a creature by increasing its size.

All equipment worn or carried by a creature is similarly enlarged by the spell. Melee and projectile weapons affected by this spell deal more damage. Other magical properties are not affected by this spell. Any enlarged item that leaves an enlarged creatures possession (including a projectile or thrown weapon) instantly returns to its normal size. This means that thrown weapons deal their normal damage, and projectiles deal damage based on the size of the weapon that fired them. Magical properties of enlarged items are not increased by this spell.

Multiple magical effects that increase size do not stack,.

Enlarge person counters and dispels reduce person.

Enlarge person can be made permanent with a permanency spell.

Feather Fall
Transmutation 1 immediate action SRD
Will negates (harmless) or Will negates (object) - Yes (object) Arc 1, Asn 1, Brd 1, Shu 1, Sor/Wiz 1 V
Until landing or 1 round/level Close General
Targets: One Medium or smaller freefalling object or creature/level, no two of which may be more than 20 ft. apart

Objects or creatures fall slowly.

The affected creatures or objects fall slowly. Feather fall instantly changes the rate at which the targets fall to a mere 60 feet per round (equivalent to the end of a fall from a few feet), and the subjects take no damage upon landing while the spell is in effect. However, when the spell duration expires, a normal rate of falling resumes.

The spell affects one or more Medium or smaller creatures (including gear and carried objects up to each creatures maximum load) or objects, or the equivalent in larger creatures: A Large creature or object counts as two Medium creatures or objects, a Huge creature or object counts as two Large creatures or objects, and so forth.

You can cast this spell with an instant utterance, quickly enough to save yourself if you unexpectedly fall. Casting the spell is a free action, like casting a quickened spell, and it counts toward the normal limit of one quickened spell per round. You may even cast this spell when it isn't your turn.

This spell has no special effect on ranged weapons unless they are falling quite a distance. If the spell is cast on a falling item the object does half normal damage based on its weight, with no bonus for the height of the drop.

Feather fall works only upon free-falling objects. It does not affect a sword blow or a charging or flying creature.

Mage Armor
Conjuration (Creation) [Force] 1 standard action SRD
Will negates (harmless) - No Beguiler 1, Force 1, Sor/Wiz 1, Spell 1 V, S, F
1 hour/level (D) Touch 6 hours
Target: Creature touched

Gives subject +4 armor bonus.

An invisible but tangible field of force surrounds the subject of a mage armor spell, providing a +4 armor bonus to AC.

Unlike mundane armor, mage armor entails no armor check penalty, arcane spell failure chance, or speed reduction. Since mage armor is made of force, incorporeal creatures can't bypass it the way they do normal armor.

Magic Missile
Evocation [Force] 1 standard action SRD
None - Yes Force 2, Sor/Wiz 1, Wmg 1, Wuj 1 V, S
Instant Medium General
Targets: Up to five creatures, no two of which can be more than 15 ft. apart

1d4+1 damage; +1 missile per two levels above 1st (max 5).

A missile of magical energy darts forth from your fingertip and strikes its target, dealing 1d4+1 points of force damage.

The missile strikes unerringly, even if the target is in melee combat or has less than total cover or total concealment. Specific parts of a creature can't be singled out. Inanimate objects are not damaged by the spell.

For every two caster levels beyond 1st, you gain an additional missile-two at 3rd level, three at 5th, four at 7th, and the maximum of five missiles at 9th level or higher. If you shoot multiple missiles, you can have them strike a single creature or several creatures. A single missile can strike only one creature. You must designate targets before you check for spell resistance or roll damage.

Ray of Enfeeblement

None - Yes Arc 1, Blg 1, Decay 2, Duskblade 1, Necro 1, Sin-E 2, Sor/Wiz 1 V, S
1 min./level Close General
Effect: Ray

Ray deals 1d6 +1 per two levels Str penalty.

A coruscating ray springs from your hand. You must succeed on a ranged touch attack to strike a target. The subject takes a penalty to Strength equal to 1d6+1 per two caster levels (maximum 1d6+5). The subjects Strength score cannot drop below 1.

Shield
Abjuration [Force] 1 standard action SRD
- Sor/Wiz 1, Wuj 1 V, S
1 min./level (D) Personal 30 minutes
Target: You

Invisible disc gives +4 to AC, blocks magic missiles.

Shield creates an invisible, tower shield-sized mobile disk of force that hovers in front of you. It negates magic missile attacks directed at you. The disk also provides a +4 shield bonus to AC. This bonus applies against incorporeal touch attacks, since it is a force effect. The shield has no armor check penalty or arcane spell failure chance. Unlike with a normal tower shield, you can't use the shield spell for cover.

Command Undead
Necromancy 1 standard action SRD
Will negates; see text - Yes Necro 2, Sor/Wiz 2 V, S, M
1 day/level Close 1 hour
Targets: One undead creature

Undead creature obeys your commands.

This spell allows you some degree of control over an undead creature. Assuming the subject is intelligent, it perceives your words and actions in the most favorable way (treat its attitude as friendly). It will not attack you while the spell lasts. You can try to give the subject orders, but you must win an opposed Charisma check to convince it to do anything it wouldn't ordinarily do. (Retries are not allowed.) An intelligent commanded undead never obeys suicidal or obviously harmful orders, but it might be convinced that something very dangerous is worth doing.

A nonintelligent undead creature gets no saving throw against this spell. When you control a mindless being, you can communicate only basic commands, such as come here, go there, fight, stand still, and so on. Nonintelligent undead won't resist suicidal or obviously harmful orders.

Any act by you or your apparent allies that threatens the commanded undead (regardless of its Intelligence) breaks the spell.

Your commands are not telepathic. The undead creature must be able to hear you.
