Conjured Stream

Source Lynte Homebrew
School conjuration [creation, water]; Level druid 3, shaman 3, sorcerer 3, summoner 3, witch 3, wizard 3

Casting

Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M (50 gp riverstone/quartz or 50 gp pearl)

Effect

Range 5 feet
Duration concentration up to 800 gallons or 100 cubic feet or 1 minute per level, then 24 hours.
Saving Throw none; Spell Resistance none

Description

You conjure a large amount of water, generating a hefty 160 gallons (around 20 cubic feet) of water per round (800 gallons or 100 cubic feet per minute). The water pours out from within range at low pressure, with the same space limitations as create water. Though it may push or drown, the spell alone is generally harmless to tiny or larger creatures. The conjured water lasts for 24 hours after the spell, draining itself away back into the plane of water at the same speed it was conjured.

Using a riverstone or quartz grants fresh water, while using a pearl conjures seawater. Other similarly priced material components may conjure different types of water, such as brackish or well water.

Rime-Fang Spirit Wolf

Source Lynte Homebrew
School evocation [cold]; Level arcanist 4, druid 4, magus 4, occultist 4, shaman 4, sorcerer 4, witch 4, wizard 4

Casting

Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M

Effect

Range close (25 + 5 ft./2 levels)
Duration 5 rounds
Saving Throw Fort partial; Spell Resistance yes

Description

This spell materializes two medium-sized ephemeral wolves of frost on spaces adjacent to you. They can run or fly 45 ft. each round, taking their actions at the end of your turn. They hunt down targets as you direct, will always attempt attacks of opportunity against enemies, and are able to see invisibility. They attack against touch AC, using your caster level as BAB and dealing 2d6 cold damage on a hit. Against targets that haven’t been struck by the same casting, the cold damage is increased by 1d6 for every 2 caster levels (max 5d6 at 10th level).

The wolf dissolves into the target’s body upon striking, causing a chilling cold. The target then suffers the entangled condition for the remaining duration of the spell, or until it receives any amount of fire damage. Creatures struck by a wolf may take a Fort save to halve the damage and negate the entangled effect.

The wolves have no hitpoints (dissipating once struck) and 12 touch AC.

At 10th level, you may summon 2 additional wolves as a swift action on the next round. At 15th level, you may do this again on the third round of the spell, allowing you to summon up to 6 wolves in 1 casting. Against a single target, the maximum cold damage is 5d6 + 2d6 per wolf = 17d6 at 15th level.

Ephemeral I: Ephemeral creatures dissipate at the end of the spell’s duration, after successfully hitting or after being hit, whichever comes first.

Test Campaign House Rules

0 House Rules Directory v2 House Rules General Rules and Etiquette Changing Rules: Rules may be patched or changed during the campaign. This will only happen between chapters. Scheduling: Please reply to scheduling messages ASAP. It does not have to be a yes/no immediately, but if it’s a maybe, you should at least give a reason why it’s a maybe. Preferably with an ETA of when you’ll get better information. If a player fails to show up to a session 2 or more times without good reason, they may be removed from the game. Character Motivations: Regardless of the PCs alignment and personality, I want them to cooperate with each other. For smoothness, I want the party to always be on the same map and to actively help each other during combat. The characters’ motivations must therefore be aligned, at least until the end of a chapter. If character motivations are misaligned, the minority half may have a separate session, or become NPCs until they realign. Roleplay:...
