Sindor

Drops weak creatures (by HD) into magical slumber — the classic first-level fight-ender.

The target treats you as a trusted friend until the charm is broken.

An invisible barrier: AC 2 vs hurled, AC 4 vs melee, total cover vs Magic Missile.

Grow a creature or object up to +1/2 size per level — more reach, more menace.

Falling creatures or objects drift down at 2 ft/sec. Gravity, briefly repealed.

See magical auras and their relative strength in a path ahead.

Decipher otherwise-unreadable magical writing — scrolls, glyphs, a stranger's spellbook.

Learn one property of a magic item per attempt — taxing, and never the whole story.

Conjure a globe of light — or, cruelly, cast it on a foe's eyes to blind them.

Up to four drifting lights you steer — torches, lanterns, or a single eerie face.

Summon a bonded animal that shares your senses — and a piece of your fate.

A roiling cloud of nauseating vapor; those who fail their save reel helplessly.

Fills the area with sticky strands that trap and slow. Flammable — pairs poorly with your hobbies.

The subject vanishes from sight until it attacks or the spell ends.

1d4 illusory duplicates flicker around you; attackers must guess which is real.

Rise and descend vertically by will — no horizontal motion, but no falling either.

Opens locked, barred, stuck, or wizard-locked doors and chests.

See the invisible, hidden, astral, and ethereal in a path ahead.

Read surface thoughts through up to two feet of stone — minds behind the door.

As Light, but daylight-bright and permanent until dispelled.

Magically seals a door or chest; higher-level casters and Knock can still open it.

Strikes a creature of under 6 HD frozen or fleeing in terror.

A globe of magical darkness that blinds normal and infravision alike.

Saps a victim's Strength by 25%+, gutting its melee. Soften the brute before it reaches you.

True flight at 12" — the wizard's escape hatch and high ground.

Doubles movement and attacks for the party. (Ages the recipient a year — power has a price.)

Halves enemy movement and attacks — the mirror of Haste, thrown at the foe's line.

Strips magical effects in the area; success scales with the level gap. The great undoer.

Paralyzes up to four humanoids; fewer targets save at a penalty.

Invulnerability to non-magical hurled and fired missiles. Walk through the volley.

You wink in and out of phase each round, hard to hit and able to step through the gap.

A blast of wind that scatters gases, snuffs flames, and staggers light creatures.

Breathe water freely. Divide the duration among several recipients if you like.

Speak and understand any spoken language — parley, or read the room before the fight.

A visual illusion limited only by what onlookers will believe; sustain it by concentration.

Calls 2–8 small monsters to fight for you until slain or dismissed. Bodies between you and the front.

Grants heat-sight to 60 ft for the duration.

A bubble that stops incoming 1st–3rd level spells cold. Cast your own out through it.

Instantly step up to 30 yards/level to a known relative point. The short, certain teleport.

Assume another creature's form (and some abilities) without its mind. Escape, scout, or surprise.

Transform a victim into another creature — body and, by degrees, mind. A brutal save-or-lose.

As Charm Person, but works on monsters; more, weaker creatures or one strong one.

A cone of dread sends the unsteeled fleeing, dropping what they carry as they run.

Afflicted creatures wander, babble, or attack at random each round. Chaos as a weapon.

Skin like stone turns aside the next several blows entirely — the duelist's insurance.

Send an invisible flying eye ahead to scout, up to 24" out. Reconnaissance without the risk.

Lifts most curses from a person or item (the item may resist staying with its owner).

An invisible, near-indestructible barrier. Disintegrate is one of the few answers. "None shall pass."

Summon a 16-HD elemental — concentrate to control it, or it turns on you. High risk, high muscle.

A wall-sized hand of force always interposes between you and one foe, blocking its path.

Cross any distance instantly to a remembered place — with a real risk of arriving high, or low and dead.

As Hold Person, but paralyzes monsters too. Lock down the thing you can't out-trade.

Reduces a spellcaster's intellect to an infant's. The wizard-killer's spell.

Move objects or creatures by thought, up to ~250 lbs/level. Hurl the furniture, or the goblin.

Open a temporary passage straight through ordinary rock. The wall was never the obstacle.

Turn stone to deep mud (or reverse it). Bog down a charge or drop a ceiling.

Conjure a sheet of real iron — a barrier, a bridge, or a wall toppled onto a foe.

Raise a permanent stone wall, shaped to fit. Fortify, seal, or divide the battlefield.

Raise skeletons or zombies (≈1 HD of undead/level) as tireless servants. Not Sindor's taste — but in the book.

Question a power on another plane; farther planes know more but risk your sanity. Knowledge with teeth.

A huge hand of force shoves a foe back and pins it, impossible for most to push past.

As the minor globe, but bars 1st–4th level spells. Stand untouched and answer in kind.

A mobile bubble no spell or magical effect can enter. A held breath against the arcane.

Restore the petrified to flesh (or turn flesh to stone in reverse). Undo the basilisk's work.

Reshape hills and earthworks over minutes. Siege-craft and landscape, by command.

Cast spells through a lifelike duplicate of yourself, drawing fire away from the real you.

Drive approaching creatures away from you, unable to advance. Carve breathing room.

Learn the hidden history of a person, place, or thing — slowly, cryptically, and at real cost. The seeker's spell.

Calls 1–4 larger monsters to fight on your behalf. Heavier bodies for the line.

Drop the level of water (or reverse it). Ford the moat, beach the ship, expose the lair.

Cleave a passage through water for a time — a dry road where there was a river.

Return the recently dead to life in a new, randomly determined body. A second chance with a surprise.
