Exorcism (Adventurer Spell (levels 6+) Return to top

 

Removes a spirit possessing another creature or object.

Modification-Point Cost (M.P.C.)  :  40

Prerequisites --------------------------- :  Spiritualist
Ability-points to invoke:

Not applicable.

See: "Spell-points to cast".
Area of Effect:

One creature or object.

Pit Mental-strength vs. the spirit’s Mental-strength and win to succeed in removing an spirit from a creature or object.
Casting Time:

Damage:

None. If the caster fails to Exorcize a spirit, it will possess him or her.
Duration:

Permanent.
Effect Time:

1 turn (5 seconds) in which time the spirit will cry with a loud voice, cursing the Spiritualist (yet its curses will be in vain).

Explanation:

Return to top

Above all rulings on this spell, there will be a 1% chance per level of the caster that the exorcism will work instantly and without pitting Mental-strength.

 

This powerful magic will remove a spirit from possessing another creature. Once a possessing spirit is successfully exorcized, it must leave.

 

The danger in attempting this is that, if the Spiritualist fails in the contest of mental-strength against the spirit, he or she will be an open target for the spirit to possess. It will be strictly up to the G.M. if the spirit possessing another will attempt to inhabit the Spiritualist, for if it fails to do so, it must then leave.

 

If the Spiritualist becomes possessed, the spirit will no longer be in possession of the creature or object.
Hand Movement:

Two hands.
Healing:

Only that the possessing spirit is removed.

Return to top

When you find a corpse, you will cast this spell upon it after touching it. When the “Effect time” has elapsed, the corpse will shift, and then rise, turning to the spiritualist. It will then become a channel to its former spirit. The Spiritualist must know the language of the deceased in order to properly communicate with it.

 

Once Communication begins and ends, the corpse will fall lifeless to the ground once more.

 

The corpse will not be undead, nor’ alive in any manner; it is merely a channel point for the deceased to speak
through.
Hand Movement:

Two hands.
Healing:

None.
Immunities:

Undead can make a successful avoidance-roll vs. “Faith” in order to resist this spell. If this avoidance-roll fails, the undead and the Spiritualist will become linked, neither being able to move. What happens to one will happen to the other; there is no escaping this with the exception of powerful magic (i.e., essence magic, wish, etc.).
