Aug 04, 2005 1:36:24 I'm making a list of ideas for epic spells/powers specifically designed for DS. The list would be sent to the Epic Bureau and if the ideas are good enough they might become actual epic spells/powers, who knows.

Here are the ideas I already gathered:

something that results in huge lava lakes, both like in ur draxa and in scorched plateau.

something that holds silt at bay, like what dregoth uses to allow staying in surface giuestenal.

kind of a deviation from the second idea, something that allows mass tampering with natural terrain: raising huge plateaus, making chasms, sinking valleys, stuff like that.

more later. gotta run.

Aug 06, 2005 9:52:02 As Cap'n Nick suggested, a spell that create a large and possibly permanent area of lava, like the Lava Gorge.

A spell to make a compulsion to have members of a race comes to a calling, even from anywhere on the planet, see the ability of the Crown of Dwarven Kings.

A spell that turn vast area of silt to water or the reverse (that could have been used during the Cleansing Wars). After a while, if the area could turn into mudflats if left on its own.

Aug 06, 2005 9:53:36 I would have to point out that some great ideas for some epic spells would come from the Dragon Kings book.

One of my favorites was (I do not have the book in front of me so I do not know the name) the one that allowed you to create a type of dimensional space, have things moce into it and then when you broke the glass disk of the coin sized spell focus, everything came out of the dimensional space at the same rate that they went in.

Aug 06, 2005 19:40:00 From the Dragon Kings book I loved the Magical Minions spell, allowing you to absorb any Arcane or Psionic abilities of a chosen minion who became permanently linked to you, whom you could channel any power or spell through from a distance. (Think, uber familiar).

That Instant Citadel was a fun one, as were the Prolific Forestation and Vegetation spells.

The one that created +1 or +2 weapons vs a specific enemy or group of enemies was also a great spell, very stylish for DS.

Enslave Elemental was also good.

Those are some of my faves..

For a new spell (here's one I doubt they would 'ever' introduce into the game.. ) how about one for granting the Sun Wizard or Champion Templates?? In RaFoaDK the other SK's wanted Hamannu to create other Dragons like them, not just Dragon's but SK's.. champions.. perhaps they thought that if he were fully transformed he would have the capacity??

How about an epic spell for granting yourself the ability to utilize other methods of energy gathering?? (that way the Shadow King of Nibenay could actually be able to pull from shadow without being a shadow wizard) also it would allow types such as Hamannue to be able to pull from Shadow and Sun (assuming Rajaat didn't simply grant him that in the beginning). Suitable prereqes would be in order of course.

you'll have to forgive my epic spell ideas if they are way off course, I don't have the epic level handbook.. but the ideas sound interesting to me..

How about a spell to revert the 'stone' used by the halflings back to its original maleable state? (such a spell could revert the Pristine Tower back to its original pre-rajaat state.. or back to its pre-halfling material).

Aug 06, 2005 21:26:53 Can we please stay on track here, and not diverge into reminescing about a book published years ago and that we all know by heart?

DK's spells are gonna be made into epic spells and ordinary spells eventually, part of the Epic Bureau's task.

Any new ideas on epic spells and powers? (BTW, you don't need the Epic Level Handbook to have ideas about epic spells, just give the ideas you have.)

EDIT: Sorry, I'm a bit on edge.
