Effect: One arrow of acid

Ranged touch attack; 2d4 damage for 1 round +1 round/three levels.

A magical arrow of acid springs from your hand and speeds to its target. You must succeed on a ranged touch attack to hit your target. The arrow deals 2d4 points of acid damage with no splash damage.

Darkvision
Transmutation 1 standard action SRD
None - Yes (harmless) Arc 3, BVal 3, Duskblade 2, HotD 2, Rgr 3, Sor/Wiz 2, VDarkness 1 V, S, M
1 hour/level Touch 6 hours
Target: Creature touched

See 60 ft. in total darkness.

The subject gains the ability to see 60 feet even in total darkness. Darkvision is black and white only but otherwise like normal sight. Darkvision does not grant one the ability to see in magical darkness.

Darkvision can be made permanent with a permanency spell.

Deflect
    PHBII
  Duskblade 2, Sor/Wiz 2  
    General

Gain bonus to AC for one attack.

Dimension Hop
    PHBII
  Duskblade 2, Sor/Wiz 2  
    General

Teleport subject short distance.

Fly
Transmutation 1 standard action SRD
Will negates (harmless) - Yes (harmless) Duskblade 2, Sor/Wiz 3, Travel 3 V, S, F/DF
1 min./level Touch 5 minutes
Target: Creature touched

Subject gains a fly speed of 60 ft.

The subject can fly at a speed of 60 feet (or 40 feet if it wears medium or heavy armor, or if it carries a medium or heavy load). It can ascend at half speed and descend at double speed, and its maneuverability is good. Using a fly spell requires only as much concentration as walking, so the subject can attack or cast spells normally. The subject of a fly spell can charge but not run, and it cannot carry aloft more weight than its maximum load, plus any armor it wears.

Should the spell duration expire while the subject is still aloft, the magic fails slowly. The subject floats downward 60 feet per round for 1d6 rounds. If it reaches the ground in that amount of time, it lands safely. If not, it falls the rest of the distance, taking 1d6 points of damage per 10 feet of fall. Since dispelling a spell effectively ends it, the subject also descends in this way if the fly spell is dispelled, but not if it is negated by an antimagic field.

Swift Fly
    SPC
  Arc 3, Brd 2, Drd 3, Duskblade 2, Sor/Wiz 2  
    General

This spell functions like fly except for 1 round (swift).

Ghoul Touch
Necromancy [Negative] 1 standard action SRD
Fortitude negates - Yes Duskblade 2, Sor/Wiz 2 V, S, M
1d6+2 rounds Touch General
Target: Living humanoid touched

Paralyzes one subject, which exudes stench.

Imbuing you with negative energy, this spell allows you to paralyze a single living humanoid for the duration of the spell with a successful melee touch attack.

Additionally, the paralyzed subject exudes a carrion stench that causes all living creatures (except you) in a 10-foot-radius spread to become sickened (Fortitude negates). A neutralize poison spell removes the effect from a sickened creature, and creatures immune to poison are unaffected by the stench.

Invisibility
Illusion (Glamer) 1 standard action SRD
Will negates (harmless) or Will negates (harmless, object) - Yes (harmless) or Yes (harmless, object) Adp 2, Arc 2, Asn 2, Beguiler 2, Brd 2, Duskblade 2, HB 2, Hoard 2, Shu 3, Sin-L 2, Slayer of Domiel 3, Sor/Wiz 2, Trickery 2, Wuj 2 V, S, M/DF
1 min./level (D) Personal or touch 5 minutes
Target: You or a creature or object weighing no more than 100 lb./level

Subject is invisible for 1 min./level or until it attacks.

The creature or object touched becomes invisible, vanishing from sight, even from darkvision. If the recipient is a creature carrying gear, that vanishes, too. If you cast the spell on someone else, neither you nor your allies can see the subject, unless you can normally see invisible things or you employ magic to do so.

Items dropped or put down by an invisible creature become visible; items picked up disappear if tucked into the clothing or pouches worn by the creature. Light, however, never becomes invisible, although a source of light can become so (thus, the effect is that of a light with no visible source). Any part of an item that the subject carries but that extends more than 10 feet from it becomes visible.

Of course, the subject is not magically silenced, and certain other conditions can render the recipient detectable (such as stepping in a puddle). The spell ends if the subject attacks any creature. 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 characters 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 the subject attacks directly, however, it immediately becomes visible along with all its gear. Spells such as bless that specifically affect allies but not foes are not attacks for this purpose, even when they include foes in their area.

Invisibility can be made permanent (on objects only) with a permanency spell.

Swift Invisibility
    SPC
  Asn 2, Brd 1, Duskblade 2, HB 2  
    General

Invisibility lasts 1 round (swift).

Scorching Ray
Evocation [Fire] 1 standard action SRD
None - Yes Adp 2, Arc 2, Duskblade 2, Sor/Wiz 2, Wmg 2 V, S
Instant Close General
Effect: One or more rays

Ranged touch attack deals 4d6 fire damage, +1 ray/four levels (max 3).

You blast your enemies with fiery rays. You may fire one ray, plus one additional ray for every four levels beyond 3rd (to a maximum of three rays at 11th level). Each ray requires a ranged touch attack to hit and deals 4d6 points of fire damage.

The rays may be fired at the same or different targets, but all bolts must be aimed at targets within 30 feet of each other and fired simultaneously.

See Invisibility
Divination 1 standard action SRD
- Adp 2, Arc 2, Beguiler 2, Brd 3, Duskblade 2, EmBarachiel 3, HB 2, MH 2, Sor/Wiz 2, Truth 3, Wuj 2 V, S, M
10 min./level (D) Personal 4 hours
Target: You

Reveals invisible creatures or objects.

You can see any objects or beings that are invisible within your range of vision, as well as any that are ethereal, as if they were normally visible. Such creatures are visible to you as translucent shapes, allowing you easily to discern the difference between visible, invisible, and ethereal creatures.

The spell does not reveal the method used to obtain invisibility. It does not reveal illusions or enable you to see through opaque objects. It does not reveal creatures who are simply hiding, concealed, or otherwise hard to see.

See invisibility can be made permanent with a permanency spell.

Seeking Ray
    PHBII
  Duskblade 2, Sor/Wiz 2  
    General

Ray deals 4d6 electricity damage, ignores concealment and cover; you gain +4 on attacks with rays against the subject.

Spider Climb
Transmutation 1 standard action SRD
Will negates (harmless) - Yes (harmless) Arc 2, Asn 2, Beguiler 2, Drd 2, Duskblade 2, HB 2, Hoard 2, Slayer of Domiel 1, Sor/Wiz 2, Spider 1, Wuj 2 V, S, M
10 min./level Touch 1 hour
Target: Creature touched

Grants ability to walk on walls and ceilings.

The subject can climb and travel on vertical surfaces or even traverse ceilings as well as a spider does. The affected creature must have its hands free to climb in this manner. The subject gains a climb speed of 20 feet; furthermore, it need not make Climb checks to traverse a vertical or horizontal surface (even upside down). A spider climbing creature retains its Dexterity bonus to Armor Class (if any) while climbing, and opponents get no special bonus to their attacks against it. It cannot, however, use the run action while climbing.

Stretch Weapon
    PHBII
  Brd 2, Clr 2, Duskblade 2, Sor/Wiz 2  
    General

Melee weapon gains 5 ft. of reach for one attack.

Sure Strike
    PHBII
  Duskblade 2, Sor/Wiz 2  
    General

Gain +1 bonus/3 levels on next attack.

Touch of Idiocy
Enchantment (Compulsion) [Mind-Affecting] 1 standard action SRD
None - Yes Beguiler 2, Duskblade 2, HB 2, Sin-E 3, Sor/Wiz 2 V, S
10 min./level Touch General
Target: Living creature touched

Subject takes 1d6 points of Int, Wis, and Cha damage.

With a touch, you reduce the targets mental faculties. Your successful melee touch attack applies a 1d6 penalty to the target's Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma scores. This penalty can't reduce any of these scores below 1.

This spells effect may make it impossible for the target to cast some or all of its spells, if the requisite ability score drops below the minimum required to cast spells of that level.
