Geas
| Class and level | Magic-User 6 |
|---|---|
| Duration | Permanent / Instant (remove geas) |
| Range | 30' |
The caster commands a subject to perform or avoid performing a specific action.
- Examples include: bringing a specific item to the caster, eating or drinking without restraint, keeping a certain fact secret.
- The prescribed geas must not be impossible or directly deadly-if such a geas is cast, it affects the caster, instead.
- The subject may save versus spells, to avoid coming under the spell's effect.
- If the save fails, the subject must follow the stipulated course of action or suffer gradually increasing (and eventually fatal) penalties determined by the referee. For example: penalties to attack, ability score reductions, inability to memorize spells, physical torment and feebleness, etc.
Reversed: Remove Geas
Can dispel an active geas spell and any incurred penalties. If the caster of the geas to be nullified is higher level than the character casting remove geas, there is a chance of the spell having no effect. The probability of spell failure is 5% per level the caster is below the caster of geas.
