This spell grants the recipient heightened alertness whether asleep or awake.  If used while the recipient is awake, the spell gives a +1 circumstance bonus on listen, search and spot checks as well as a +2 enhancement bonus to intiiative.  The spell’s primary use, however, is on a sleeping recipient. The sleeping recipient is able to become instantly alert at the threat of danger.   Attempts to catch the recipient flat-footed while asleep must succeed against an opposed hide/move silently roll versus the recipient's listen skill.  An awakening individual suffers no penalties to initiatves or actions when awakening from sleep. The material component is the whisker of a cat.

 

Deepslumber (Transmutation)

 

Level: Sor/Wiz 1

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: Close (5 ft./ level)

Target: One creature

Duration: 10 minutes/ level

Saving Throw: Will negates

Spell Resistance: Yes

 

The mage deepens the sleep of a target, so it will not readily awaken. Deepslumber makes the recipient able to sleep through all loud noises and disturbances. No action short of wounding the target can awaken a creature in deepslumber until the spell expires. A successful Will Save negates the spell. Note that the spell functions on already sleeping creatures and doesn't put them to sleep or make them sleepy. It is extremely popular among rogue/mages. The material components for the spell are a wad of cotton and a pinch of fine sand.

 

Dopler's Effect (Illusion [Glamor])

 

Level: Sor/ Wiz 1

Components: V, S

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: Close (30 ft.)

Duration: 1 minute + 1 minute/ level 

Target: One creature

Saving Throw: Will negates

Spell Resistance: Yes

 

Dopler's Effect causes the target creature to experience auditory hallucinations that confuse distances. The caster chooses to affect the target in one of two ways:

 

1) Sounds appear to be closer then they actually are. This confusion causes the creature to believe it is surrounded by invisible creatures. The creature

     suffers a -2 circumstance penalty to attack rolls and armor class.

2) Sounds perceived are farther away than in reality.  The target receives a -4 circumstance penalty to listen, search and spot checks.  The second

     application is useful when attempting to sneak up on the target.

 

(The usefulness of this spell is heightened when cast in conjunction with blindness or when cast against creatures which rely chiefly on hearing, i.e. bats. -Dopler)  This spell was devised by the illusionist Dopler when he was apprenticed to the Shadowmaster Ghaell H'Sare.

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: Close (20 feet)

Target: One creature per flash

Duration: 1 minute/ level or until used

Saving Throw: Reflex negates

Spell Resistance: Yes

 

The caster creates small beads which flash upon impact. This spell creates small beads in the caster’s hand; one bead is created for every three caster levels above first up to a maximum of 5 beads (i.e. levels 4, 7, 10, and 13). Each bead may be thrown out to 20 feet by the caster or further using a ranged weapon such as a sling. Each bead creates a brilliant flash upon impact when it explodes. Each bead affects one creature, and it must make a Reflex Save or be partially blinded. Any creature blinded by a flash loses all dexterity bonuses to armor class, attacks and saves at a –2 circumstance penalty over the next two melee rounds. A successful save negates all ill effects. The caster may opt to hold the beads for future use or leave them behind as a trap or warning. Any creature contacting beads left in this manner will detonate them, and they are almost invisible in darkness. If the beads are not used before the duration lapses, they dissipate harmlessly. The material component for this spell is a pinch of powdered magnesium.
