2 | -3 | Chores (Range: 125")
This spell is so named because it is chiefly used by the weary, the crippled and the very old. The caster need but point, and he can command objects to move at a distance with enough deftness to prepare food, wash glassware or even write. |
Telekinesis (10 STR), Fine Manipulation (25 Active Points); Independent (-2), No squeeze or punch (-½), Gestures, Requires Gestures throughout (-½), Incantations (-¼), IIF (-¼) | 25 |
3 | -8 | Crevasse
When this spell is cast, the Wizard chants an arcane litany, calling forth the power of the earth. At the end of his chanting the Wizard either points at a location on the ground within range (or drives the butt of his staff into the ground for added drama), causing the Earth to split open into a crevasse. Victims caught within the spell area fall into the hole and become jammed where the crack narrows. Anybody caught in the crevasse can attempt to climb out again, if they survive the fall. The crevasse is wedge shaped, with a depth determined by the tunneling rate through the material. Small targets will fall further into the 2" wide crevasse than larger victims. (A hex of packed earth has a DEF rating of 4.) Over time the crevasse will fall in upon itself, or become filled with water or debris. |

6 | -13 | Far Sight (Range: 570")
This spell allows the caster to use the surface of calm water to observe events happening far away. By staring into the water the caster can see and hear what is happening. It should be noted that only the caster can see and hear, to everybody else the caster is simply staring at his own reflection in the water. |

2 | -6 | Swarm (Range: 280")
The wizard calls out insects, and shapes them into a swarm. The attackers' small size allows them to at least irritate heavily armored targets. The swarm is not completely mindless; they will not go into fire, water, or any other environment that will cause their death. |

The Staff will remain animated for as long as the Wizard maintains the spell, then it returns to its original form. It can grab and squeeze a target with tremendous strength. |

3 | -3 | Swarm Form
The wizard disintegrates into a swarm of tiny animals that attack and move as a group. While each individual animal is easy to slay, collectively the swarm can be quite lethal.

3 | -6 | Vermin Spy
This spell can be used to recruit a small creature of whatever sort is local to serve as a spy for the caster. It will be favorably disposed to perform this mission, although it will usually flee at the slightest hint of serious risk. Any damage the creature takes while the power is in use is also taken by the Caster. |

4 | -4 | Tattoo
This spell will cause an inanimate object to be reduced 10-fold in size and transformed into a tattoo on the caster's skin. The object must be touched only at the end of the casting, enabling lit torches or campfires to be tattooized. The transformed items remain until the caster "peels" the tattoo off and throws it to the ground. While in tattoo form, items appear as full-color, intricate representations of whatever is contained within. A successful dispel magic upon the caster will each item to spring back into original form instantaneously. A caster may have as many tattoos on his body as could reasonably fit. If the caster dies, all the items are immediately released. |
