Ideas for new circles...

Unread post by pblackcrow »

A few ideas I've had for awhile...Please post comments.

Summon air mount
Summon land mount
Teleport building
Link building (sorta like in the movie Howl's Moving Castle.)
Tag item
Call forth (tagged item)
Teleport town/city (difficulty rating 99%, but not impossible and actually rather easy if it is done while building sewers or even as part of a city plan The components for this are HARD TO GET and VERY expensive. For the circle: quart dust, enough to go under a city in at last a 3 inch wide and a perfect circle. Activation ingredient is 5 living serpents, freshly cut from a gorgons head or a gorgons head, whole, fresh cut with in 24 hours.) The ability to move a city to another site can be a way to avoid conflict.

Circle of Transmute Gender. ( Make a man into a woman, or a woman into a man.)
Circle of Transmute Race. ( Make a human an elf, or an Orc into a goblin, or whatever. Could be one circle, or a whole series of them,)
Circle of The Mind Slave. ( As Love Potion, with all the same effects.)
Circle of Incorporeal. ( Pass through walls, spy on people, all that jazz.)
Circle of Bulls Strength.( Grants supernatural strength, and raises PS by 1d20+Half Casters level)
Circle of Invulnerability. ( As per the Super Power, essentially makes one an MDC creature in a SDC world.)
Circle of Transmutation( Grants the Super Powers that turn one into Ice, fire, metel, stone, etc.)
Circle of Metamorphisis(Animals.)
Circle of Soul Transference. ( Switch your soul for that of another, and use their body for fun and profit!)
Circle of the Sorcerers Revenge( As per the Rifts spell.)
Circle of Demonic/Angelic/Elemental Empowerment.( Gain all the special abilities of a chosen creature.)
Circle of the Horde. ( Summons a horde of spirit Warriors, as per the Spell of legend.)
Circle of Vampiric Transformation. ( Turns someone into a secondary Vampire, with the caster having the same power over them as a master vampire.)
When combined with a Circle of Power, you could combine several of the circles. Have fun!
Those are just a few of the ones I've thought of in like ten minutes or so. I love circle magic through, and make up random circles all the time.

these two are not new.
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.

If they're published somewhere I wasn't aware of it.

I don't know honestly, they were just ideas off the top of my head.
But some just kinda scream out certain things, almost all of them would be centered on the circle itself. Although I'd personally rule that once the Circle Master invoked the powers they would last a number of minutes/hours etc equal to their level, allowing them to be used for some time away from the circle.
As to components, the Vampiric circle would certainly require vampire blood, and probably a wild Vampire as a sacrifice. The Demonic/Angelic/Elemental circle would require demon or angel blood, or the heart of an elemental, along with such a creature as sacrifice which would be the creatures whose power you gain. thats all just off my head though, it'd take me a while of tinkering and play testing to get it all hammered out.

Here is a new circle of legend created by the Old Ones.
Circle of Mass Domination
Range 50'/level
Duration 1d4 x 10 minutes/level
Saving Throw standard Note: depending on where your True name is put into the circle you can either be immune or specifically targeted depending on where in the circle it is placed.
This circle when activated puts everyone within range under the effects of a Domination spell, used primarily to keep sacrificial "victims" docile.
Components symbols drawn in a concoction of powdered scorpion, snake venom and bull testicles. While the circle itself is drawn w/ black paint, the circle makers own blood, and the blood of the sentient type that is to be mass controlled.
Power words Pein yin Kym-nark-mar yin Lictalon

They are in the Old Ones book in the small dungeon adventure.
