Dark Seers Lay Power
Invoke Sphere 5
Range Self Only
Duration 15 Minutes
Extendable? No
Description This invocation takes a full 5 minutes to cast and requires a consistent and appropriate ceremony to be performed centred upon a casting mat (see the high level casting page). Upon completion the caster has called directly on the Evil Sphere for aid and so may cast a single Evil Ritual Invocation, at normal use of power, using vocals only, without the normal 15 minutes casting time. The Ritual invocation must be cast within 15 minutes of the Invoke, and until it is cast no invocations from other Spheres can be cast nor can another Invoke Sphere be cast. The caster may only cast a Ritual Invocation that he is already capable of casting, no additional casting ability is granted by this invocation.

Invocation Descriptions
Beguilement 1 - 5
Range 20 ft
Duration 15 Minutes
Extendable? Yes
Description This invocation causes the victim to treat the caster as a "trusted and respected superior". The victim will not follow all commands blindly, and his attitude to all other people, friend and foe alike, does not change. He will, however, follow reasonable commands from the caster, that do not conflict with his basic nature. Imagine that the caster was your Assistant Guild Leader. Beguilement affects character ranks and monster hits as shown below:
Rank | Player Ranks Affected | Monster Hits Affected |
1 | 2 | 20 |
2 | 4 | 40 |
3 | 8 | 60 |
4 | 16 | 80 |
5 | 32 | 100 |
Commune 2, 5
Range Special
Duration Special
Extendable? N/A
Description The caster petitions the Sphere for knowledge of a particular empowered item and its abilities.
This invocation takes 5 minutes to cast, which must be accompanied by a small ceremony. The item being examined must remain with the caster for the duration of the invocation. After 5 minutes have passed the Sphere will have heard the caster's request and will respond in time and the caster will learn something of the objects abilities (Referee's Discretion). This will usually be at the next appropriate time out. This invocation only works on empowered items, mundane and ensorcelled items are not affected.
The Rank 5 version of the Invocation works in the same way but allows the caster to Commune with up to 5 items at the same time. Each item must be in the caster's possession for the duration of the casting.
Eyes of the Seer 2, 4
Range Self Only
Duration 15 Minutes
Extendable? No
Description This invocation grants the caster glimpses into the future, alerting him to incoming attacks. This grants the caster additional dexterity armour class as shown below:
Rank | Dexterity Provided |
2 | 1 |
4 | 2 |
The dexterity armour class provided by Eyes of the Seer will stack with any other form of dexterity from any source (including the Neutral Invocation Enhanced Reflexes) as well as any other type of armour class that would normally stack with dexterity (armoured or unarmoured).
Power Drain Range 3 - 5
Range 20 ft
Duration Instant
Extendable? N/A
Description This invocation drains the power from a target, inflicted 1 point of life damage for each point of power drained. The amount of power drained is shown below.
Rank | Power Drained |
3 | 1 |
4 | 2 |
5 | 4 |
The amount of power drained is reduced by the target's power armour class.
The caster should call "Power Drain" followed by the amount of power drained rather than the rank of the invocation.
Terror 5
Range Touch
Duration 15 Minutes
Extendable? N/A
Description This invocation causes the target to become filled with unnatural Terror causing them to flee from the caster for the duration of the invocation. Terror is a Fear effect, differing only in duration, and may be removed or resisted by any ability which would be effective against Fear.
