Daily Punch 12-23-14 Gravity Spell for Shadowrun 5e

~ fineyoungmisanthrope ~ Leave a comment

If there’ is gravity in 5e, there really needs to be gravity spell in Shadowrun!

 

Gravity

(Physical)_____

Type: P         Range:LOS

Duration:S  Drain: F-1

Gravity allows you to increase the mass of a person or object.  You have to beat a threshold of the subjects new intended mass divided by 200 kilograms, rounded up.  The subject of the spell instantly acquires the new mass, but does not change is current size or shape.  If the subject has an Agility or Strength strength score, it takes a penalty to all Agility and Strength checks equal the the threshold that the spell caster had to beat to cast the spell.  However, it gains a bonus to Body equal to the same threshold.

If you are trying to cast gravity on an unwilling living being or an item held by an unwilling living being, that being can defend against the Spellcasting test with Strength + Body.  You can use this spell on yourself if you need to sing like a rock quickly in Lake Michigan.

I had a dream about walking on the ceiling.  Maybe I should stop watching bad 80’s music videos before bed….  But, this spell came out of that!

 

Gravity

1st level Transmutation

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: one target in 60 ft., must way less then 1 ton at normal gravity

Components: V, S, M (a piece of lead and a glass of air)

Duration:concentration, up to 1 hour

You alter the attraction of another or an object  to the ground.  You can either make a creature more attracted to the ground or less.  This choice is chosen at the time of casting and can not be changed.  If you make the creature or object more attracted to the ground, it moves at 1/2 speed, weights twice as much, makes all jump, acrobatics, and swim checks with disadvantage, but makes all climb checks and checks to avoid being moved without wanting to with advantage (it climbs at the normal half its regular speed).  If you make the creature less attracted to the ground, it moves at 1 1/2 is land speed, weight half as much it usually does, makes all jump, acrobatics, and swim checks with advantage, but makes all climb and checks to avoid being moved with disadvantage.

Casting at higher level: For every level cast above one add one ton to the maximum weight of the target, and add one target to the spell.

We all focus on what we’re good at, so how about some focus for spell casters in Shadowrun?

 

Special Spell Training 

Cost: 10 Karma

Benefit: You’ve spent time working on one type of spell, so much so you don’t even feel the spell as it drains you.  When you take this quality choose a type of spell (combat, detection, etc), when you cast that spell of that type reduce the drain by 2 to a minimum of 1.
