SPELL DESCRIPTIONS:
1st Level:
Charm Person: This spell will cause the recipient, if he fails his saving throw vs. magic, to regard the caster as a trusted mentor, friend or ally for an indefinite period. After a
number of days equal to 19 minus the victims intelligence score, a saving throw may
be attempted to break the charm. If it fails, then another may be tried in a like number
of days, and so on. Alternatively, a Dispel Magic spell will always break the charm. It is
important to note that the spell does not enable the caster to control the recipient as an
automaton or to successfully order him to perform any actions which obviously contradict any of his previously and strongly held beliefs, loyalties, moral principles or the like.
So, for example, if a witch charms a good prince, she cannot force him to embrace evil
or perform what he would regard as evil acts, but she will cause him to believe that she
herself is not evil, and thus he might be induced to defend her to the death even
against his friends. The spell will work against, humans, demi-humans and humanoids
shorter than Ogre-size. Undead are immune. Range: 120.
Cure Light Wounds: This spell will restore 2-7 hit points to the target character
during the course of a full turn. Alternatively, it may be cast during surgery, giving
the patient a +5% bonus to his adversity check. A character may be the recipient
of this spell but once per day. Range: touch.
Detect Evil: This spell will detect evil intentions and thoughts or the presence of
an evil object or entity. Duration: 2 turns, Range: 60.
Detect Magic: This spell will determine whether an enchantment or charm has
been placed on a place, thing or person. It is often used to divine whether a discovered item is magical. Duration: 2 turns, Range: 10.
Hold Portal: This spell will bar a door, gate or similar. A Dispel Magic or Knock
spell, or a creature with strong magical resistance will negate it. Duration: 2-12
turns, Range: 60.
Light: This spell will create a 30 diameter globe of light around the caster, a point
in space or a mobile or immobile object. The light created will not equal full daylight
and thus cannot be used, say, to destroy a Vampire. Duration: 6 turns + 1 turn per
level.
Magic Missile: This spell conjures a magic arrow that will do 2-7 points of damage
if it hits. Those of 6th-10th levels may cast three simultaneous missiles. Those of
11th or higher levels may cast five simultaneous missiles. Chance to hit is computed as for a +1 bow, potentially modified by dexterity. Range: 150.
Protection from Evil: This spell prevents attacks on the caster from enchanted,
summoned or conjured monsters. As well, it subtracts -1 from the attack rolls of all
evil creatures and gives the caster +1 to his saving throws against the same. Duration: 6 turns.
Purify Food and Water: This spell makes spoiled or even poisoned quantities of
food or water usable again. These will serve up to a dozen people.
4

Pyrotechnics: This spell will produce a small-scale fireworks display from an already existing fire sourcea torch, bonfire or the likeor a temporary 20 diameter cloud of smoke from the same. Depending on the context the effect might be
delightful, frightening, obscuring, surprising, distracting, etc., but not directly harmful. Duration: 6 turns, Range: 240.
Read Languages: This spell allows the caster to read an otherwise incomprehensible or indecipherable non-magical language or code. Duration: one or two maps,
scrolls or sets of inscriptions, or perhaps 5% of a book.
Read Magic: This spell allows the caster to initially read and understand the writings in a magic book or scroll. In the case of a book, this will enable him to attempt
to know the spells contained therein, or in the case of a scroll to use the scroll at a
later time.
Shield: This spell will form a magical barrier around the caster equivalent to armor
class 2 vs. missile attacks and armor class 4 vs. melee attacks. Duration: 2 turns.
Sleep: This spell will put to sleep all of the following within a 30 area of effect (no
saving throw): 2-16 creatures of up to 1+1 hit dice, 2-12 creatures of up to 2+1 hit
dice, 1-6 creatures of up to 3+1 hit dice and/or 1 creature of up to 4+1 hit dice.
Range: 240.
Snake Charm: The caster may hypnotically calm any number of snakesnormal
or giantwith maximum collective hit dice equaling the level of the caster. Duration: 2-12 turns (as long as the caster maintains rough eye contact), Range: 60.
Speak with Animals: This spell allows conversation between the caster and one
form of animal. The animal or animals will never attack the caster and a positive
reaction may mean that it or they may perform services for him. Duration: 6 turns,
Range: 30.
Strength: This spell will increase the strength of a willing target by from 2-8 points
if he is a Fighting-Man and from 1-4 points if he is a Thief. Magic-Users will obtain
no benefit. For each additional 2 points increased over a score of 18, an additional
+1 bonus (cumulative with that already granted at 18) will be added to melee damage rolls. After use, the recipient must sleep for a full day. Duration: up to 8 hours.
Ventriloquism: The caster may throw his voice such as to make it issue from an
animal, statue, around a corner, etc. If centered on a creature or object, those paying close attention may notice that the mouth is not moving. Duration: 2 turns,
Range: 60.
Web: This spell produces great sticky webs sufficient to cover an area 10 x 10 x
20. The strands are quite strong, requiring a determined creature a number of
turns equal to 22 minus his strength score to break through. The webs will last for
8 hours under normal conditions but are of course flammable. Range: 30.
Cause Light Wounds: The mere touch of the caster will inflict 2-7 damage points
over the course of one full turn. A standard attack roll may be required to hit, unless the target is unaware, surprised, etc.
5

2nd Level:
Arcane Lock: This spell will bar a door, gate or the like for an indefinite period. A
Knock spell will only temporarily negate it. A Magic-User of at least three levels
above the caster may ignore such a lock. Range: touch.
Clairaudience: This spell allows hearing at a distance. It is blocked by more than
two feet of stone or by a thin coating of lead. Note that it can be cast through a
Crystal Ball. Duration: 12 turns, Range: 60.
Continual Light: Similar to a light spell but with these differences: It has an area
of effect of a 240 diameter sphere, may not be cast on a mobile object and lasts
permanently unless dispelled or countered with a Darkness spell or similar. Range:
120.
Darkness, 5 Radius: This spell causes complete and utter darknesssufficient
even to block the sight of monsters that may normally see in the darkwithin an
area 10 x 10 x 10. A Light spell will counter it, and vice versa. Duration: 6 turns,
Range 120.
Detect Invisible Creatures or Objects: This spell will reveal invisible (but not
hidden) entities or items. Duration: 6 turns, Range: 10 per level of the caster.
ESP: This spell allows the caster to read the thoughts of most creatures (at least
those that have thoughts). It will be blocked by more than two feet of stone or by a
thin coating of lead. If the caster does not understand the targets language, the
emanations will be quite general. Duration: 12 turns, Range: 60.
Find Traps: The spell allows the caster to detect any mechanical or magical trap
within 30. Duration: 2 turns.
Fortify: This spell will give a bonus of +1 to the morale and attack rolls of all allied
creatures within an area 50 x 50. Duration: 6 turns.
Hold Person: This spell will completely immobilize 1-4 persons in the casters
area of vision at a distance of up to 180 (saving throw allowed). If the caster
chooses to target but one person, the saving throw against the spell will be made
at a -2 penalty. Duration: 9 turns.
Infravision: This will allow a willing recipient to see up to 60 in pitch darkness.
Duration: 1 day.
Invisibility: This spell may be cast on a willing recipient and lasts until he chooses
to break it, or until he attacks or is attacked. Range: 240.
Knock: This spell will open all doors, even if locked, secret, magically held, etc.
Range: 60.
Levitate: This spell may lift the caster at a speed of 60 per turn up to a total
height equal to his level x 20. The spell does not enable lateral movement per se
but the caster may use his hands to pull himself along the ceiling, etc. Duration: 6
turns plus the level of the caster.
6

Locate Object: The caster will be informed of the direction of a known item or a
specific sort of objecta sword, a stairway upward, a doorway, etc. Range: 60
plus 10 per level of the caster. The thing sought must be within that range.
Magic Mouth: This spell will enchant an inanimate mouth such as that of a statue,
or will create a temporary magical mouth on a wall, pillar, etc. When triggered, the
mouth will utter a one-time message of up to twenty-five words. The caster may
designate a necessary condition or set of conditions for the mouth to be triggered,
subject to the approval of the referee. For example: Speak at exactly midnight
during the next full moon/when a beautiful woman comes within five paces/when
my friend Casimir returns, etc.
Mirror Image: This spell will create 1-4 images that will look, move and act in a
manner identical with the caster. Any attempted melee attack or successful missile
attack against an image will dispel that image. Duration: 6 turns.
Phantasmal Forces: The caster may create the visual illusion of virtually anything
he can imagine in a two-dimensional space with an area of up to 40 x 30. The
illusion may be maintained indefinitely by concentration but will vanish if touched.
Range: 240.
Silence, 15 Radius: This spell may be cast on a stationary point or object, or on
the caster and his party to move with them. It will completely suppress all sounds,
including the spoken words required to cast spells. The caster may cancel the
spell at any time. Duration: 12 turns, Range: 180.
Water Breathing: This spell allows the chosen recipient to breathe normally underwater. Duration: 12 turns, Range: 30.
Spoil Food & Water: The reverse of Purify Food & Water.
3rd Level:
Clairvoyance: This spell allows seeing at a distance. It will be blocked by more
than two feet of stone or by a thin coating of lead. Like Clairaudience it can be cast
through a Crystal Ball. Duration: 12 turns, Range: 60.
Cure Disease: This spell will cure any form of disease.
Dispel Magic: This spell can permanently dispel most enchantments, though it
affects magic items and the like only temporarily. If the dispeller is of a lower level
than the original caster, then the chance of success is expressed as a percentage
determined by dividing the level of dispeller by the level of the original caster. Duration (if cast on a magic item): 1 turn, Range: 120.
Distract: This spell inflicts a -1 penalty to the saving throws of all creatures within
an area 20 x 20. If cast by an Archimagus or a Wizard, the penalty will be -2. Duration: 2 turns (including the turn in which it was cast). Range 30.
Explosive Runes: These may be placed on a book, map or scroll. If anyone other
than the caster reads them, they will explode, doing three dice of damage to the
7

reader (no saving throw) and destroying the object they were placed upon. A Magic-User of at least two levels above the original caster will have a 50% chance of
noticing the runes and a 75% chance of succeeding in removing them. They can
also, of course be removed by the original caster whenever he desires.
Fire Ball: A hurled fire ball will tend to explode in a 40 diameter sphere, doing as
many dice of damage to those inside as the level of the caster (a successful saving throw indicates half damage). The caster should always be aware that the blast
naturally shapes itself to the area concerned in order to affect a similar volume of
space. Range: 240.
Fly: This spell allows the caster to fly through the air at a move rate of 12. Duration: 1-6 turns plus 1 turn per level of the caster.
Growth of Plants: This spell will cause an area of normal brush or woods with an
area of up to 30 x 30 to become overgrown and virtually impassable. Duration:
until dispelled, Range: 120.
Haste: This spell will enable up to 24 creatures in a 60 x 120 rectangle to move at
twice their usual rate and attack/defend at +2. A Haste spell may counter a Slow
spell and vice versa. Duration: 3 turns, Range: 240.
Invisibility, 10 Radius: This spell may be cast on a multiple group of persons and
will last for each until he chooses to break it, or until he attacks or is attacked.
Range: 240.
Lightning Bolt: A lightning bolt will affect all creatures in a line 60 x 8, doing as
many dice of damage as the casters level (a successful saving throw indicates
half damage). If there isnt space to allow a full 60 extension, the bolt will double
back. Range: 240.
Protection from Evil, 10 Radius: This spell will prevent attacks from enchanted,
summoned or conjured monsters on those within a circle centered on the caster.
As well, it subtracts -1 from the attack rolls of all evil creatures and gives those
protected +1 to their saving throws against the same. Duration: 12 turns.
Protection against Normal Missiles: This spell will completely protect the target
from normal-sized non-magical missiles such as arrows or bolts. Duration: 12
turns, Range: 30.
Remove Curse: This spell will remove one curse from a creature or object.
Rope Trick: This odd but useful spell begins by enabling the caster to toss a
length of magical rope 6 to 24 in the air where it will hang taught from an invisible
point in space. The caster and up to three companions may then climb the rope
and retreat into an extra-dimensional space where they may safely hide for up to 6
turns plus 1 turn per level of the caster. The rope will remain in physical space
unless or until it is tampered with or removed, etc. Characters emerging from hiding without the rope will of course fall the appropriate distance.
Slow: This spell will slow up to 24 creatures in a 60 x 120 rectangle such that
they will move at only half their usual rate (saving throw allowed) and at8

tack/defend at a -2 penalty. A Slow spell may counter a Haste spell and vice versa.
Duration: 3 turns, Range: 240.
Speak with Dead: The caster may communicate with a dead person or creature,
provided there is a body (or at least a skeleton) available. The spell generally only
works on beings that have been dead 1-4 days, though an Archimagus or Wizard
may communicate with those dead for 1-4 months. Up to three questions may be
asked, and the responses will most likely be in riddles. Note that only evil or neutral beings may be conversed with. Good beings will have already passed on to
another place where they will no doubt have better things to do than banter with
inquisitive Magic-Users.
Suggestion: Using this spell, a hypnotic suggestion is imparted to the target (saving throw allowed) that may be carried out at any point within a weeks time according to the instructions of the caster. This may very well end up having a harmful effect but the Suggestion itself may not be obviously or directly harmful.
Summon Monsters I: The caster summons one or more monsters to faithfully
serve himattacking his enemies or performing some other task. The type and
number of monster will be determined randomly but will include 1-6 creatures from
Monster Level Tables A or B, or 1-3 creatures from Monster Level Table C. Note
that there is at least the possibility that the particular arrivals may very well be inappropriate or ineffective given the situation. The monsters take 1 turn to arrive
and will stay for up to 6 turns.

Cause Disease: This spell will cause the victim to contract a randomly determined
serious disease (saving throw allowed).
9

4th Level:
Charm Monster: If the target creature fails its saving throw, it will come under the
influence of the caster in a manner identical to a Charm Person spell. A check to
break the Charm will be made weekly, with possible success determined by the
creatures hit dice:
Hit Dice

Chance of Breaking Charm

Under 2
2-4
5-7
8-10
11 and up

5%
10%
20%
40%
80%

Of course a Charm may also always be dispelled. Range: 120.

10

Confusion: This spell will affect up to 2-12 enemy creatures (rolled secretly by the
referee and determined randomly). Creatures of 2 hit dice or fewer are affected
immediately, while those of 3 or more hit dice are affected in a number of turns
equal to the score on a twelve-sided die less the level of the caster. Only creatures
with 4 or more hit dice are entitled to saving throws. These are made each turn and
determine only whether or not the creature will be affected in that turn. Affected
creatures roll two dice each turn to determine their actions: attack the casters party
(2-5), do nothing (6-8) or attack each other (9-12). Duration: 12 turns.
Create Water: This spell creates water sufficient to supply two-dozen men and
two-dozen horses for one day. It must be consumed on the day it is created.
Cure Serious Wounds: This spell will restore 4-14 hit points to the target character during the course of one full turn. Alternatively, it may be cast during surgery,
giving the patient a +5% bonus to his adversity check. A character may be the
recipient of a Cure Wounds spell (Light or Serious) but once per day. Range:
touch.
Dimension Door: This spell allows a willing recipient to teleport up to 360 in any
direction (including up or down). The recipient will appear exactly where the caster
calls, e.g. 150 northeast and 20 up. Materializing within a solid wall or beneath
the ground will result in death, but the existence of a smaller object or creature at
the targeted spot will merely cause the recipient to conform himself around ithe
might arrive sitting in a chair or hugging a Goblin, etc.
Extension I: This useful spell increases the duration of any 1st through 3rd level
spell by 50%.
Fear: Within the area of effecta cone projecting 60 from the user with a perpendicular base of 30all that fail their saving throws vs. magic must flee in fear for 6
turns. There is a 50% chance that fleeing creatures will drop any items they had in
hand. Range: 240.
Hallucinatory Terrain: By means of this spell a large item of terraina hill,
swamp, forest, etc.may be concealed or caused to appear as something else.
The spell lasts until an enemy makes contact with the affected area. Range: 240.
Ice Storm: Via this spell a hailstorm of short duration but tremendous force is created within an area 30 x 30. All those within take three dice of damage (no saving
throw). The spell may only be cast outdoors. Duration: 1 turn. Range: 120.
Invisible Eye: This spell creates an invisible eye, linked so as to function as the
eye of the caster that he can direct at will. It may travel up to 240 away from the
caster at a Move rate of 12. It may go under doors, through large keyholes, etc.,
but cannot penetrate solid material. Duration: 6 turns.
Massmorph: Up to 100 man-sized creatures may be disguised as a grove of
trees. Contact will not dispel this multi-sensory illusion. Range: 240.
Neutralize Poison: This spell serves as an antidote to any kind of poison. However, it will not revive a character that has already been killed by poison.
11

Polymorph Others: This spell will transform a willing or unwilling target into any
creature the caster desires (saving throw
allowed if unwilling), the effect being
permanent unless or until dispelled. The
victim will take on most of the characteristics and abilities of the new creature,
though his offensive combat capabilities
will not be more than those of his old self
and his defensive combat capabilities will
be at least those of his old self. Because
of this, polymorphing, say, a Goblin into a
Red Dragon would not be wise. On the
other hand, polymorphing a Hill Giant into
a mosquito would render the Hill Giant
harmless but the mosquito would be
tough to kill (having 8 hit dice, an armor
class of 4 and a base move of 12!).
Range: 60.
Polymorph Self: The caster may change himself into
any creature he desires. He acquires most abilities of
the creature, though not those pertaining to magic or
combat. Duration: 6 turns plus 1 turn per level of the
caster.
Speak with Plants: This spell allows the caster to converse with grasses, flowers, trees, etc., as well as enabling him to issue easily performed commands to
theminviting them to part in order to allow passage,
etc. Duration: 6 turns, Range: 30.
Summon Monsters II: Identical to Summon Monsters I,
except that 1-2 creatures from Monster Level Tables 1
or 2 will appear.
Turn Sticks to Snakes: By means of this spell the
caster may turn up to 2-16 sticks into normal-sized
Snakes (see Vol. 2) with a 50% chance for each one
that it will be poisonous. Duration: 6 turns, Range: 120.
Wall of Fire: This spell creates a wall of fire in the form of a plane with an area of
up to 60 in width by 20 in height, or a circle with an area of up to 30 diameter and
20 in height. The wall is effectively opaque and creatures of fewer than 4 hit dice
will refuse to pass through it. More powerful creatures that attempt to penetrate
the wall will take one die of damage (two dice if they are Undead). The spell lasts
for as long as the caster concentrates on it. Range: 60.
Wall of Ice: This spell creates a wall of ice in the form of a plane with an area of
up to 60 in width by 20 in height or a circle with an area of up to 30 diameter and
12

20 in height. The wall is opaque and creatures of fewer than 4 hit dice will refuse
to pass through it. More powerful creatures that attempt to penetrate the wall will
take one die of damage (two dice if they are fire-using monsters). The spell lasts
for as long as the caster concentrates on it. Range: 120.
Cause Serious Wounds: The mere touch of the caster will inflict 4-14 hits on a
victim over the course of one full turn. A standard attack roll may be required to hit,
unless the target is unaware, surprised, etc.
5th Level:
Animate Objects: This spell temporarily vivifies physical objects. It can be used
for any purpose, though it will usually be invoked in combat situations. Up to one
large, two man-sized or four small items can be made to come to life, with recommended attack, defense and movement capabilities as outlined below:

A rug will trip any creatures standing upon it (saving throw allowed), and may then
make a flying attack, attempting to smother the targeta successful attack does
one die of damage on the first turn, and one automatic die of smothering damage
each additional turn until either the rug or it victim expires. A tapestry will immobilize all of those covered or enfolded by its dimensions (saving throws allowed) for
2-5 turns, or it may attempt to smother one target as a rug. And so on. Duration: 6
turns, Range: 60.
Cloudkill: This spell creates a 30 diameter cloud of poisonous vapors that will
slay creatures of fewer than 5 hit dice (no saving throw). The cloud will float directly away from the caster at a move rate of 6 unless its course is altered by the wind.
It may be dispelled by strong winds or broken by thick tree growth or similar terrain. Duration: 6 turns.
Conjure Elemental: This spell will conjure and control an Air, Earth, Fire or Water
Elementalall detailed in Vol. 2. The caster must maintain total concentration on
the extremely dangerous and volatile creature (any successful attack will break
that concentration) or the Elemental will almost certainly turn on him. Duration:
until dispelled, the casters concentration is broken or the Elemental is directed
home, Range: 240.
Contact Higher Plane: This spell allows one to seek information concerning
earthly affairs from strange beings inhabiting higher planes of existence. Questions
will generally be answered by a simple yes or no with the occasional perhaps,
unknown or irrelevant thrown inespecially likely for those queries deemed
13

excessively vague, subjective or philosophical. The higher the plane the greater
the chance that the Magic-User will go temporarily insaneusually after only one
questionfor a number of weeks equal to the number of the plane contacted. In
addition, the mind-bending weirdness of the process is such that there is almost
always at least a small chance that the questioner will fall into a fatal coma (with
no saving throw and no means of reversal except perhaps with a Wish).

where he will then live out a dull and/or short existence. If a possessed body is

comprising the mud will naturally evaporate or drain in 3-18 days, though the resulting volume of dirt will hardly be identical to the originally existing mountain face,
stone plateau, castle wall, etc. Those suddenly caught in the gook, of normal human weight or higher, and that have no extraordinary means of escape via levitation flight, teleportation or similar, will have a chance of drowning according to the

MAGIC BOOKS:
As explained in Vol. 1, each Magic-User begins the game with a Magic Book containing 1-9 spells. A Magic Book may contain up to 12 spells of a particular level.
Upon finding another Magic Book or scroll, a Magic-User has the option of copying
the new spells contained therein into one of his own books, as long as he does not
exceed the 12-spell limit. Even blank spell books are fabulously rare and expensive items, requiring the finest parchment or paper and specially crafted bindings.
Additional blank books and the appropriate ink and other supplies necessary to
inscribe spells into them may be created or purchased at a cost of 2,000 Silver
Pieces for a book capable of containing 1st level spells, 4,000 Silver Pieces for a
book capable of containing 2nd level spells, 8,000 Silver Pieces for a book capable
of containing 3rd level spells, and so on. Reading or rereading a spell from a book
is necessary in order to internalize the magical energies of the spell and thus temporarily memorize the spell for casting. However, Magic-Users that know a par18

ticular spell are assumed to have permanently memorized the written words of that
spell. Thus, if a spell-caster ever loses his book or books, he may rewrite the
spells that he knows into a new book or set of books, assuming he has the necessary books or has the funds necessary to obtain them.
MAGICAL RESEARCH:
There may come a time when a Magic-User wishes to create his own spells (the
form, nature and appropriate level being subject to the approval of the referee).
Researching a new spell will cost a minimum of 1,000 Silver Pieces per spell level.
For each 1,000 per spell level committed there is a 10% cumulative chance (90%
maximum) that the research will succeed. Of course the Magic-User may still not
exceed the maximum number of spells that can be known per level as determined
by his intelligence score.

POTIONS: A potion will generally (though not always) be one-use. Often a small
sip will give a hint as to its properties without depleting its effectiveness. However
such hints can be misleading. For example, tasting a Polymorph (into a small Roc)
potion might convey the same sensation as tasting a Flying potion. Sampling an oil
may (or may not) give useful hints. Effects last for 7-12 turns unless otherwise
implied or stated.
Animal Control: One who drinks this mixture will be able to completely control 318 small animals, 2-12 medium-sized animals and/or 1-6 large animals. Magical,
fantastic or unusual giant-sized creaturesgiant insects, etc.will not be affected. Range: 120.
Clairaudience: As the 2nd level spell. Range: 60.
Clairvoyance: As the 3rd level spell. Range: 60.
Delusion: The user will believe (either upon taking a sip or quaffing it in its entirety) that the potion is whatever he most desires it to be. The referee will either decide what this is or else randomly determine it. This error may or not be apparent
to others.
Diminution: If a full portion is used, the imbiber will shrink to six inches in height.
Dragon Control: This works as a Charm Monster spell on one type of Dragon
(saving throw allowed as with the spell). It will potentially affect 1-3 in number.
Dragon types: die 1 = Black, die 2 = Blue, die 3 = Brass, die 4 = Bronze, die 5 =
Copper, die 6 = Golden, die 7 = Green, die 8 = Red, die 9 = Silver, die 10 = White.
Range: 120.
ESP: As the 2nd level spell. Range: 60.
Extra Healing: This potion will restore 3-18 hit points. Alternatively, the full portion
may be used during surgery, giving the patient a +5% bonus to his adversity check.
Fire Resistance: The drinker will be unaffected by normal fires and the Wall of
Fire spell. Against extraordinary firesa Fire Ball spell, Dragon breath, etc.he
will be at +2 to save and will subtract -1 from damage.
Flying: As the 3rd level spell.
Gaseous Form: The imbiber will temporarily assume gaseous form. He thus may
penetrate any solid body, moving at normal speed. Arms, armor and equipment
must unfortunately be left behind.
Giant Control: This works as a Charm Monster spell on one type of Giant (saving
throw allowed as with the spell). It will potentially affect 1-4 in number. Giant types:
die 1 = Cloud, die 2 = Fire, die 3 = Frost, die 4 = Hill, die 5 = Stone, die 6 = Storm.
Range: 120.
Giant Strength: The drinker of this potion will become as strong as a Hill Giant,
allowing him to inflict two dice of damage in melee combat, among other things. He
may also hurl boulders up to 120 for three dice of damage.
32

Growth: He who drinks the full measure will increase his size such that he will be
roughly 30 in height. Quaffing lesser amounts will have proportionate effects.
Healing: This potion will restore 2-7 hit points. Alternatively, the full portion may be
used during surgery, giving the patient a +5% bonus to his adversity check.
Heroism: This potion will cause the drinker to temporarily assume the characteristics of a Knightwith 4 hit dice and an attack bonus of +2. Fighting-Men of 4th-7th
level will temporarily advance in ability by two levels, and Fighting-Men of 8th-10th
level will temporarily advance in ability by one level (with additional hit dice as well
as possible advances in attack bonuses and saving throws). Fighting-Men of 11th
level and above, Magic-Users of 7th level and above and Thieves of 4th level and
above will be unaffected. Hit point losses will be reduced proportionately after the
potion wears off.
Human Control: This will allow the imbiber to influence others as with a Charm
Person spell (saving throw allowed), but the user may affect 1-12 persons of 3 or
fewer hit dice, 2-8 persons of 4-6 hit dice, 1-4 persons of 7-9 hit dice and 1 person
of 10 or more hit dice. Range: 120.
Invisibility: As the 2nd level spell.
Invulnerability: The name is a bit of exaggeration, but the stuff is useful nonetheless. The drinker will receive a +2 bonus to all saving throws and all attacks
against him will be at a -2 penalty. Only one such potion may be quaffed per week
or it will have the reverse effect.
Levitation: As the 2nd level spell.
Longevity: This will reduce magical or supernatural aging by 10 years. It will reduce natural aging by 1 year but if used for this purpose, it will subtract 1 point
from the drinkers constitution score.
Oil of Etherealness: When applied fully this will make the user ethereal, with the
ability to move through solid objects. In that state he may attack out-of-phase or
ethereal creatures and in turn may be attacked by such creatures. However, he
may not engage in combat with ordinary opponents nor will he be vulnerable to
attack by them.
Oil of Slipperiness: If applied to ones body and/or armor, it will make one fully
resistant to being constrained by webs, ropes, tentacles, brawling holds, etc. Alternatively it may be spread over a stretch of floor or steps, giving a 95% chance that
any person or creature will slip and fall. It lasts 24 hours or until removed with alcohol or a similar substance.
Plant Control: This will allow the drinker to control 1-6 plants or fungoid entities, or
all smaller growths within a 10 x 10 area. Range is 60.
Poison: This is quasi-magical and extremely toxic and will probably be undetectable as poison by sight or smell. However, if it is ingested or absorbed into the
blood in a dose as small as a mere sip or drop, then it will kill (saving throw allowed). A flask of the liquid may be utilized in combat but at extremely high risk.
33

Polymorph Self: As the 4th level spell. Precisely what creature the drinker polymorphs into will already be determined as a property of the potion.
Speed: Imbibing this potion will double ones move rate.
Super-Heroism: This potion will cause the drinker to temporarily assume the characteristics of a Vindicatorwith hit dice of 8+2 and an attack bonus of +5. (Regarding saving throws, Magic-Users and Thieves aided by the potion may use the most
advantageous of either the saving throws for a Vindicator or the saving throws for
their class at their original level.) Fighting-Men of 9th-12th level will temporarily advance in ability by two levels, and Fighting-Men of 13th-15th level will temporarily
advance in ability by one level (with additional hit dice as well as possible advances
in attack bonuses and saving throws). Fighting-Men of 16th level and above, MagicUsers of 12th level and above and Thieves of 13th level and above will be unaffected. Hit point losses will be reduced proportionately after the potion wears off.
Treasure Finding: This will allow the drinker to identify and locate treasure hordes at
distances of up to 360. What precisely constitutes a horde will be up to up to the referee.
Undead Control: This will enable the drinker to control 2-8 Undead of under 4 hit dice
and 1-4 Undead of 4 or more hit dice in a manner similar to the other control potions.
SCROLLS: Only Magic-Users or Thieves of 10th level and above may utilize
scrolls that contain standard spells. Magic-Users must first use a Read Magic spell
to identify the spell or spells, but may then use them at any time. High-level
Thieves may use them after a few turns of study. It is important to remember that a
Magic-user may always cast any scroll spell, regardless of whether he knows the
spell or whether he would normally be of a sufficient level to cast that spell. Whatever the level of the user of the scroll, spells will go off as if they were cast by a 6th
level Magic-User unless a higher casting level would be required, in which case
they will be of the minimum level to cast that spell. Members of any class may use
Protection Scrolls. If a Cursed Scroll is opened and even a glance is taken at its
contents by any class of character, he will find himself inexorably reading the foul
words aloud and will immediately suffer its effects.
Scroll of Protection: Elementals: This spell will completely protect the caster
and those within a 10 radius from 1 Elemental for 4 turns.
Scroll of Protection: Lycanthropes: This spell will completely protect the caster
and those within a 10 radius from 2-12 Lycanthropes for 6 turns.
Scroll of Protection: Magic: This spell will create an invisible but completely impenetrable sphere in a 10 radius around the caster that will block all magic in either direction. The sphere lasts 8 turns and will move with the caster.
Scroll of Protection: Undead: This spell will completely protect the caster and
those within a 10 radius from 2-24 Undead of 1-3 hit dice, 2-12 Undead of 4-5 hit
dice or 1-6 Undead of 6 or more hit dice for 6 turns.
Scroll: 1 Curse: Random monster attacks, or the reader is infected with a fatal
disease, is turned into a miniscule unicellular being, is instantly teleported to another planet, etc.
34

SWORDS: All magic swords were created many hundreds of years ago during the
Ancient Wars between Law and Chaos. All will have an alignment, an Intelligence
factor of from 1-12, and for those swords with an Intelligence of 7 or more, an additional Ego rating of from 1-12. The alignment of the sword is determined using
percentile dice:
01 - 65
66 - 90
91 - 00

Law
Neutrality
Chaos

Persons initially grasping a magic sword may suffer damage based on any differences in alignment:
Law vs. Chaos: 2-12 hits
Neutrality vs. Law/Chaos: 1-6 hits
For purposes of the above, Lawful Thieves will count as aligned with Neutrality.
There are a few mighty weapons allied with either Law or Chaos that have been
forged with a Special Purpose in the service of their side:

Weapons with a Special Purpose will automatically have an Intelligence factor and
Ego rating each of 12, and will have these special abilities versus those designated:
Law: The ability to slay members of the designated group.
Chaos: The ability to disintegrate members of the designated group.
If the sword does not have a special purpose, its Intelligence is determined using a

If the sword does not have a special purpose but has an Intelligence factor of 7+,
the Ego of the sword should then be determined using a twelve-sided die.
All magical swords (even those with only an Intelligence factor of 1-6) will strive to
advance the fortunes of their alignment. This may include exerting their influence
to lose a fightif the owners opponents are more favorable to their sideor attempting to pass into the hands of a creature or person better able to serve their
cause. Thus, magical swords may always choose to miss or do less damage than
rolledsomething the player character may or may not notice. Even swords
aligned with Law will not hesitate to perform actions that might be to the detriment
of their owners if they perceive that it will further the cause, especially if the owners
themselves are judged to be lukewarm in their commitment to it. While swords are
generally inanimate, they have been known to slip from the grips of their owners at
the wrong moment. Scabbards may become loose. Weapons may go lost or turn
up in the possession of other party members. And so on.

In addition, some weapons may be capable of controlling their owners. Compare

owner:

Controlling weapons will force the user to act in the interests of their alignment, but
will often attempt to do so in a way that is not obvious to other party members.
Swords aligned with Neutrality or Chaos may also desire to be housed in richer
scabbards, to have additional jewels or precious metals added to their hilts, etc.
Magic swords apply their first bonus to hit but not for damage. Their second bonus,
if any, is in turn applied to damage only. Most swords will emit a moderate glow
with a radius of illumination of 20, at least when drawn in the dark. All magic
swords are long swords. Further explanations for specific swords follow:
Cursed Sword -2: This weapon will force the wielder to immediately attack monsters at every possible opportunity. It may be removed from the hand only with a
Remove Curse spell. It will always be aligned with Chaos
Cursed Sword +1: As above but luckily the sword carries an attack bonus.
Sword +1, +3 vs. Trolls: If the sword is Chaotic, then it will be +3 vs. Lawful
Priests and High Priests.
Dragon Slaying Sword +2: In addition to the attack bonus, valid against all opponents, the sword will do 4-32 points of damage against one Dragon type: die 1 =
Black, die 2 = Blue, die 3 = Brass, die 4 = Bronze, die 5 = Copper, die 6 = Golden,
die 7 = Green, die 8 = Red, die 9 = Silver, die 10 = White. The alignment of the
sword cannot contradict its mission.
Flaming Sword +1, +2 vs. Trolls, +3 vs. Undead: In addition to inflicting extra
damage against the aforementioned types, the sword will be useful in slicing
through the strongest webs, and so on, in one turn. If the sword is Chaotic, then it
will be +2 vs. Pegasi, Hippogriffs, & Rocs, +3 vs. Treants.
37

Sword +1, Nine Steps Draining Ability: This super-powerful magic sword will
drain one or more life energy levels from the target on any natural attack roll of 20.
On the first such roll it will drain one life energy level. On the second roll (against
the same target or a different one), it will drain two life levels, and so on up to nine,
at which point it will revert to being an ordinary +1 magic sword.
Holy Sword + 3: In addition to having the largest attack bonus of any weapon, the
Holy Sword will completely negate all hostile magic within a 10 radius. The
swords alignment will always be Lawful, and therefore it can only be wielded by
Fighting-Men (not Thieves) devoted to the side of Law.
Dancing Sword: This Magic Sword +2 will, after three turns of combat, leap out of
the hands of its owner and fight on its own for three turns. Then it will return to its
owner for three turns, perhaps to leap out again later for another three turns. And
so on. While it is fighting on its own it cannot be hit and will attack at the level of its
owner. The owner may of course use another weapon while his sword is dancing.
Sword, One Life Energy Draining Ability: This sword will drain one life level on any
attack roll of a natural 20, subsequent to and in addition to inflicting standard damage.
Sword +1, Three Wishes Included: Wishes are useful and powerful, but they are
not a grant to do anything, nor are they a license to reward either aggression or
greed. Typically they are used defensivelyI wish that Dragon would fly back to
his cave, I wish Fombur had never tried to open that chest, I wish we would
quickly find an exit to this dungeon are all standard and legitimate. However,
wishes that transgress these boundaries will either yield results that require some
additional effort or task from the person making the wish, or if too greedy or hostile, will often have Monkeys Paw sorts of consequences such that the wish
might be carried out in an unexpected manner and with unpleasant effects. For
example, wishing to, say, gain an additional point in ones prime requisite ability
may bestow a map to the lair of a monster guarding a magic item that will accomplish that purpose. On the other hand, wishing for an ability score to go from, say,
8 to 18 may instantly polymorph the individual into a disgusting monster with such
a score. Wishing for the death of another character or creature might result in the
person who made the wish being whisked a million years into the future, where the
wish will now be satisfied. And so on. Hastily or ill-formulated wishes may be (annoyingly enough) scrupulously instantiated to the letter. And of course inadvertent
uses of one or more wishesI wish you would just shut upare all too common.
Sword of Sharpness +1: This is another form of the Holy Sword, above, in that it
will negate all magic within a 10 radius. Though it has a smaller to hit bonus, it
does have the additional power that if the attack roll is +4 or more over that required to hit, or is a natural 19 or 20, it will sever a randomly determined extremity,
such as a limb, tentacle, head or heads, etc. The sword may only be used by
Fighting-Men aligned with Law.
Vorpal Blade +1: This is a third form of the Holy Sword, with the same powers
and restrictions. It is similar to the Sword of Sharpness but only requires an attack
roll +2 or more over that required, or a natural roll of 18 to 20, to unhead an evil
opponent. As with the other Holy Swords, only Lawful Fighting-Men may wield a
Vorpal Blade.
38

ARMOR: Armor will subtract the specified bonus from an opponents attack roll.
Bucklers will subtract the specified bonus only if used while unarmored or wearing
leather armor. Mail and shield combinations will subtract the specified bonus if
used together. If used separately, the mail will function as +1 armor and the shield
will function as an ordinary magic shield with no bonus. Those using magic
shields (but not bucklers) may invoke the shields shall be splintered option once
per day without the shield being destroyed. In addition, they may invoke the option
anytime in the standard way, with the probability that the shield will be destroyed
as with normal shields. Users of magic bucklers may invoke the shields may be
splintered option in the normal fashion, as for non-magical shields, with the probability that the buckler will be destroyed. Magic bucklers and shields will have the
encumbrance of their non-magical counterparts. Enchanted mail will have an encumbrance of !!! whereas magical plate armor will have an encumbrance of
!!!!!!.
Armor of Etherealness: This suit of Mail +4 allows the wearer to become ethereal at will, as per the potion. The power to become ethereal may be used but 49
times. However, the suit will always retain its status as Mail +4.
Armor of Vulnerability: This will appear to be magical plate armor (+1 to +3) but
when the first blow is struck against the wearer it will become apparent that it is a
cursed item that works in reversethe attacker adds +1 to +3 to his attack roll.
After that it may only be removed with a Remove Curse spell.
Shield of Missile Attraction -1: This shield will appear to be a helpful magic
shield. Its negative influence will only become apparent during the next attack
from a missile or missiles. Thereafter the shields shall be splintered option cannot be used (in either form) and the shield may only be removed from the shield
arm with a Remove Curse.
MAGIC BOOKS: 20% of these will be blank. The other 80% will contain from 1-12
spells of the specified level.

39

MISCELLANEOUS WEAPONS: With the exception of daggers, these may only be


used by Fighting-Men. Unlike swords, most will grant a bonus to hit and to damage, though magic bows and crossbows will only apply their bonus to the attack
roll. Magic arrows and bolts will apply their bonus to hit and to damage, and this
bonus will stack with the to hit bonus of bows and crossbows.
Mace of Disruption +1: If the wielder of this mace successfully strikes an Undead
creature, he may make a turn Undead roll (even if he or another member of the
party has already made such an attempt). The roll is made at either the level of the
wielder or 8th level, whichever is higher, and will be modified by the wielders wisdom adjustment, if any. A successful roll will disrupt the molecular structure of the
monster, destroying it.
Dwarven War Hammer +3: This will be a +3 magic weapon in the hands of any
Fighting-Man. When used by a Dwarf it will have these additional powers: 1) It may
be thrown up to 120 and then fly safely back to its owner. 2) It will do 2-12 hits of
damage against most creatures. And 3) it will do 5-15 hits of damage against Giants.
Javelins of Lightning: These may be thrown up to 120 and will inflict standard
damage if a hit is obtained. However, whether or not the standard attack roll is
successful a lightning bolt extending 30 out from the target and measuring 5 in
width will be created. The bolt will do 16 points of damage (save for half damage).
The sudden release of energy will destroy the javelin.
Arrow of Slaying: This arrow is enchanted such that it will automatically slay one
representative of a particular intelligent monster type. Roll for Type A on the Language Types Table in Vol. 4, rerolling if Common or any other non-monster language is generated. The arrow cannot be re-used.
Magic Bow: This gives a bonus of +1 to hit for all arrows, but like most other magic weapons does not increase damage.
Crossbow of Distance: This will have ten times the range of a normal crossbow.
Crossbow of Speed: This fires as quickly as a bow, for the enchanted mechanism draws back and winds on its own accord.
40

RINGS: Any character class may use rings. However, only two may be worn at the
same timeone on each hand. Where relevant, spells will operate at 11th level.
Contrariness: This cursed ring will make the wearer unceasingly argumentative
and contrary (though the referee and player are cautioned to use discretion here).
The ring can only be removed by a Remove Curse spell, though of course the
wearer will oppose that.
Delusion: The wearer of this ring will periodically see exactly and only what he
wants to see. These will not be bizarre and impossible visions, but rather things
that will initially at least seem plausible to the rest of the party. The ring can be
removed at any time.
Djinn Summoning: This ring contains a resident Djinni who will serve the wearer
for an indefinite period, possibly permanently.
Fire Resistance: As the potion, but the protection effect will last as long as the
ring is worn.
Human Control: As the potion, but it may be used once per day.
Invisibility: The wearer of this ring may become invisible (or become visible
again) at will. As with the spell, invisibility cannot be maintained during spell casting or combat.
Mammal Control: This ring allows the wearer to completely control from 3-18
small mammals or from 1-8 large mammals. Range: 60.

41

Protection: Like magic armor, the ring subtracts its bonus from any attack roll
directed against the wearer. In addition, it adds the bonus to any saving throw roll
made by the wearer. It will function with armor but not with magic armor.
Protection, 5' radius: As above. In addition, a few of the wearers nearby companions may also receive its benefits.
Regeneration: This powerful item will allow the wearer to regenerate 1 hit per turn
in a manner identical to that of Trolls. It will even restore hit points if the wearer is
at zero hit points, and similarly will reconnect or restore severed or damaged organs. As with Trolls, the process can only be stopped by fire, acid or similar.
Shooting Stars: This ring is only usable at night under the open sky. It may cast a
Light spell, hurl a Fire Ball that will do 9 points of damage to all within a 30 diameter circle, or cause a falling meteor to do 12 points of damage to one creature
(save for half-damage in both cases), all at a range of 240. Each of these functions may be used once in a twenty-four hour period.
Spell Storing: This ring contains 1-6 spells of 1st to 6th level. As soon as he puts
on the ring the wearer will know what spells it contains, and he may then cast them
at any time, whatever his class. However, only a Magic-User may restore or recharge the ring, and only if he knows the spells in question.
Spell Turning: For any spell aimed directly at the wearer, 1%-100% of its effect or
chance of effect will be reflected back at the caster. The ring will not work against
rods, staves or wands, nor will it turn the Finger of Death.
Telekinesis: This ring will give the wearer permanent telekinetic power, as the
spell cast by a 10th level Magic-User.
Three Wishes: See the description of Sword +1, Three Wishes Included, above.
Water Walking: This mischievous magic item will initially function as per the
name, but at the most inappropriate point the wearer will sink.
Weakness: Once placed on the finger, this ring will quickly drain the wearer of half
of his strength, inflicting a -2 penalty for purposes of attack, defense and saving
throws. It may only be taken off with a Remove Curse. Note: anyone attempting to
simply cut his finger off will receive 1-6 hits of electrical shock damage, doubling in
magnitude with each additional attempt.
X-Ray Vision: Using this ring, the wearer may see through most solid substances.
Up to 10 of stone or of iron may be penetrated. In addition, most hidden doors
or built-in traps will be revealed. However, lead or gold will block the operation of
the ring.
RODS, STAVES AND WANDS: Rods will have varying requirements for which
classes may use them. Staves and wands will generally only be usable by MagicUsers unless otherwise stated. Some will be of unlimited use, whereas others will
only be usable a certain number of times per day or per week, or will contain a
fixed number of charges. For those that contain charges it is up to the referee
whether or not they can be recharged, how this may be accomplished and by
42

whom. If the referee does allow this, it is recommended that only high-level MagicUsers have this ability, and such an effort will in addition require a not insubstantial
sacrifice of time and Silver Pieces.
Rod of Absorption: This rod will absorb any hostile spell directed at the wielder,
storing its energy. Up to 100 levels of spells may be absorbed in this way. It may
also be used to cast any spell the wielder has memorized without discharging the
spell from his memory but instead using the energy stored by the rod. Both of these functions may be used in the same turn as long as the spell cast is not of a
higher level than the spell absorbed. Magic-Users only.
Rod of Beguiling: This rod will, in effect, Charm all enemies within a half circle
extending out from the wielder to a radius of 20. There is no saving throw but the
beguilement will only last for 4-16 turns and cannot subsequently be repeated on
the same targets. Charges 1-25. Usable by Magic-Users and Thieves.
Rod of Cancellation: Upon striking a magical item, the Rod will permanently and
irrevocably drain the item of its magic. Usually a successful to hit roll will be required (as if one were attacking the wielder of the item), though this may be modified based on the circumstances. The Rod will only work once, though multiple
misses are allowed. Usable by all classes.
Rod of Lordly Might: This amazing mechanical device appears to be an ordinary (and
somewhat short) staff, however, at the touch of a button it will extend, retract or otherwise conform itself into the wielders choice of one of the following magic weapons:
Axe +2
Sword +1 (unlike most magic swords this will be a sword as opposed to a long sword)
Flaming Sword +1, +2 vs. Trolls, +3 vs. Undead
Spear +3
Pole Arm +1
If a hostile party witnesses one of these transformations, he will be paralyzed unless he makes his saving throw. However, if a saving throw is made, he will then
flee in fear unless he makes a second saving throw. At the end of hostilities the
rod will reconfigure itself back to its normal shape. In addition, another button will
cause the rod to extend to 50, with rungs spaced along its length and multiple
pitons or spikes that will penetrate and fasten to even the hardest stonemaking
the item into a formidable climbing apparatus. Using the weapon function will expend a charge, and the rod will have 1-25 of them. However, the climbing mechanism will continue to operate even after all charges are spent. Fighting-Men only.
Rod of Resurrection: Touching a deceased person with this horrible item will
resurrect him as a Zombie. Only the Redeemer can truly give new life.
Rod of Rulership: This awesomely powerful item will allow the wielder to command up to 500 levels worth of creatures within a radius of 100 for a period of ten
turns. Command will be equivalent to an enhanced Charm and only instructions
explicitly and completely contrary to the nature and desires of the creature or creatures concerned will be disobeyed. Charges: 1-10. Usable by all classes.
43

Snake Staff: This useful item grants a +1 bonus to hit and to damage. If it hits, then
the Magic-User may command it to entwine around the target where it will remain for
1-4 additional turns. If the target is man-sized or smaller, it will completely immobilize
him, while if he is larger then man-sized, it will simply make him incapable of attacking.
Staff of the Archimagus: This staff will have the capabilities of a Staff of Power
(see below) plus these additional powers:
+1 to hit in melee.
Invisibility: As the 2nd level spell.
Paralysis: May be invoked on a successful hit (saving throw allowed).
Pass-Wall: As the 5th level spell.
Summon Elemental: The wielder may summon an 8 hit die Elemental (roll a
four-sided die to determine type).
Wall of Fire: As the 4th level spell.
Webs: See the entry for Giant Spiders in Vol. 2, p. 56.
Whirlwind: As a Djinni. See Vol. 2, p. 13.
Each will use one charge. Charges: 1-200.
Staff of Commanding: This item gives the wielder the powers of Animal, Plant
and Human Control in a manner identical to the relevant potions. Charges: 1-200.
Staff of Healing: This staff will heal 2-7 hits at a touch, or alternatively will grant a
+5% bonus to the adversity check for surgery. It may be used an unlimited number
of times, but only once per day on a single person.
Staff of Power: This staff has the following powers:
Cold: The staff may issue an icy blast in the form of a cone 60 long with a 30
outer base. Any creature within the area of affect will take eight dice of damage (save versus wands for half damage).
Continual Light: As the 2nd level spell.
Fire Balls: The staff will hurl fireballs as the spell for eight dice of damage
(save for half damage). Area of Effect: 40 diameter sphere. Range: 240.
Lightning Bolts: The staff will spit lightning bolts as the spell for eight dice of
damage (save for half damage). Area of effect: 60 x 8. Range: 240.
Striking: The staff will do two dice of damage if it hits in a melee attack.
Telekinesis: As the spell cast at the 9th level of ability.
Final Strike: In extremis the user may choose to break the staff, releasing all
of its stored energy in the form of 8 x the number of remaining charges in hits.
These will be evenly distributed to all creatures save the wielder within a radius of 30 (save for half damage).
The Staff of Power will have 1-200 charges. Use of any of these powers (except of
course Final Strike) will use up one charge.
44

Staff of Striking: This does two dice of damage if it hits, and of course counts as
a magical weapon, though with no to hit bonus. Unlike other staves, however, it
is only usable by Magic-Users. Charges: 1-200.
Staff of Withering: In addition to inflicting standard damage, a successful strike
with this staff will age the target by ten years. (Depending on the current age and
average lifespan of the creature concerned this may or may not have a meaningful
influence on the current battle.) Undead are immune.
Wand of Cold: This wand emits an icy blast in the form of a cone 60 long with a
30 outer base. Any creature within the area of affect will take six dice of damage
(save versus wands for half damage). Charges: 1-100.
Wand of Enemy Detection: This wand will reveal the presence (though not necessarily the exact location) of those who are themselves aware of the user and
have hostile intent towards him. Range: 60.
Wand of Fear: This wand will cause all within the standard 60 x 30 cone to flee in
panic unless they make a saving throw versus magic.
Wand of Fire Balls: This wand will hurl fireballs as the spell for six dice of damage (save for half damage). Area of Effect: 40 diameter sphere. Range: 240.
Charges: 1-100.
Wand of Illusion: This wand operates as the Phantasmal Forces spell. However,
the caster may move while concentrating. Area of effect: 40 x 30 rectangle.
Range: 240. Charges: 1-100.
Wand of Lightning Bolts: This wand will hurl lightning bolts as the spell for six
dice of damage. Area of effect: 60 x 8. Range: 240. Charges: 1-100.
Wand of Magic Detection: This wand functions as the spell but with a range of
20. At the referees discretion extended concentration may reveal more precise
aspects or properties of the enchantment.
Wand of Metal Detection: This wand will indicate the presence and type of any
body of metal, metal item or metal items equal to or greater than 30 lbs. in weight
(approximately 1,000 coins). Range: 20.
Wand of Negation: If this wand is pointed at another enchanted rod, staff or wand
that operates at a distance, it will negate (or almost negate) its effect for one use
or melee turn. Rods and staves will still operate at power. Charges: 1-100.
Wand of Paralyzation: All within a cone of 60 x 30 will be temporarily paralyzed
unless they make a saving throw. Charges: 1-100.
Polymorph Wand: This wand acts as either of the relevant spells. A friendly use
will last for a number of turns equal to 6 plus the level of the caster. A hostile use
will last indefinitely until dispelled. Range: 60. Charges: 1-100.
Wand of Secret Doors and Traps Detection: This wand will signal the presence
of either within a range of 20.

MISCELLANEOUS MAGIC: These items are usable by all classes unless otherwise indicated.
Amulet of Inescapable Locating: This appears to be an Amulet vs. Crystal Balls
and ESP but instead works in reverse, rendering the user 100% vulnerable to any
and all scrying attempts.
Amulet vs. Crystal Balls and ESP: Wearing this item will completely protect one
against all such devices and spells.
Animated Broom: This item will slyly position itself to resemble a Witchs Broom
of Flying. But if someone attempts to ride it, it will instead beat the user over the
head until he is knocked unconscious or until the broom is destroyed.
Arrow of Direction: This magical arrow will act as a compass, pointing to the destination desiredthe exit to the dungeon, a source of drinking water, the lair of the
monsters that just attacked, etc.for as long as seven turns. It may be used but
seven times every seven days.
Bag of Devouring: This appears to be a Bag of Holding (see below) but instead is
the gaping maw of a hungry extra-dimensional creature. It will devour anything
placed inside within 7-12 turns.
Bag of Holding: This magical bag, the size of a large sack, will hold up to 200
items or 1,000 lbs. while never weighing more than the equivalent of 5 items. The
opening of the bag may be stretched to a diameter of 3 and the interior volume will
amount to at least 10 per side. Thus, it may accommodate a ladder or a suit of
armor, etc.
Bag of Transmuting: This also appears to be a Bag of Holding, and will initially
function as such, but any gold or silver placed inside it will turn to lead. After this is
discovered, the bag will retain this function but cease to perform as a Bag of Holding.
Bag of Tricks: The owner of this otherwise empty looking bag may reach into it
and pull out an animal (determined randomly) that will then fight for him. When
combat is finished, the animal will be drawn back into the bag, and the same animal will emerge the next time around. Only if the current animal is killed will there
be a chance of a different animal later becoming available (though there will of
course be a 1 in 6 chance that the same animal that was just killed will be chosen
again).

Book of Darkness: This vile tome will only be useful to non-player character Evil
Priests and Evil High Priests. These will gain one level upon reading it. Lawful
Priests and High Priests who read it will have a 75% chance of going insane.
Thieves who read it will take 3-12 hits of damage and Fighting-Men aligned with
Law will take 4-24 hits of damage. If the book is read by Fighting-Men aligned with
Neutrality or Chaos or by Magic-Users of any alignment, they will be nominally
unaffected, though Lawful Magic-Users may be tormented by nightmares for some
time.
Book of Infinite Spells: This book has 24 pages. 3-18 of them will contain one
spell, while the remainder will be blank. If the book is currently marked at a particular spell that spell may be memorized and cast once per day in addition to the
standard number granted by level, even if it is a spell previously unknown or of a
higher-level than the reader can normally cast. Once a page is turned it cannot be
turned back. There is a 10% chance in between uses that a page will turn of its
own accord, and a 5% chance that fumbling, wind, etc., will turn a page while it is
being studied. The book may be utilized by high-level Thieves as well as by MagicUsers, but all non-Magic-Users will suffer 4-24 points of damage the first time they
touch the book. Thereafter they can handle it normally.
Boots of Dancing: These boots will first function as one of the three benign items
of footwear enumerated below. However on the first occasion where the wearer is
running for his life, the boots will cause the wearer to stop in place and instead
dance a jig, perform the Charleston or execute a Fouett rond de jambe en tournant. If the wearer survives, he may then remove the boots.
Boots of Levitation: These will work as a Levitation spell that can be invoked at
any time.
Boots of Speed: These boots grant a base move of 24. They may be used continuously for no longer than a day, and after each use the wearer must rest for at
least as long.
Boots of Traveling and Leaping: These boots increase overland walking speed
by ten miles per day. They will also enable the user to effortlessly leap 10 vertically and 30 horizontally.
48

Bowl of Commanding Water Elementals: This is a large, fragile bowl made of


semi-precious materials (encumbrance: !!! !!!). It will take as many as 10
minutes to unpack, set up and fill with water (encumbrance of required water: !!!
!!!). A Water Elemental may then be summoned. Magic-Users only.
Bowl of Watery Death: This appears to be a Bowl Commanding Water Elementals but on the first attempted use the Magic-User will shrink to one-half inch in
size and will then be plunged into the bowl (saving throw allowed). He will then
drown in 2-5 turns unless a Growth of Animals spell is cast or a Growth potion is
immediately administered.
Bracers of Defense: These arm or wrist guards will add the requisite bonus to an
opponents to hit number (or conversely will subtract that number from an opponents attack roll) for melee and observed missile attacks. They will only function if
the user is not wearing or using any form of armor.
Bracers of Defenselessness: These appear to be Bracers of Defense but will
instead subtract -2 from an opponents to hit number (or conversely add +2 to an
opponents attack roll). Once their true nature has been discovered, the bracers
will not allow themselves to be taken off unless a Remove Curse spell is cast. Nor
will they allow the wearer to don any kind of armor or touch a shield.
Brazier of Commanding Fire Elementals: It will take as many as 10 minutes to
unpack, prepare and kindle this item (encumbrance including required charcoal:
!!! !!! !!!). A Fire Elemental may then be summoned. Magic-Users only.
Brazier of Sleep Smoke: This will be indistinguishable from the Brazier Commanding Fire Elementals but upon use its smoke will cause the summoner and
anyone else within a radius of 10 to fall into an enchanted slumber. Only Dispel
Magic will awaken them.
Broom of Flying: This is a Witchs item and can only be used by such. If utilized
by a Witch, it will have a base move of 40. If any other person attempts to ride a
Broom, it will zoom straight up at exponential speed, gaining 10 the first melee
turn, an additional 20 the second melee turn, an additional 40 the third melee
turn, and so on. Within minutes the rider will find himself in the upper atmosphere
and soon in lower earth orbit. He may jump from the broom at any time, suffering
1-6 hits of damage for each 10 of height attained.
Censer of Controlling Air Elementals: It will take as many as 10 minutes to unpack and prepare this item (encumbrance including required incense: !!! !!!). An
Air Elemental may then be summoned. Magic-Users only.
Censer of Summoning Hostile Air Elementals: This appears to be the Censer
Controlling Air Elementals, but it will summon a hostile Elemental that will immediately attack.

49

Chime of Opening: This ornate and beautiful instrument will instantly open any
stuck, locked or magically held door. The gems, jewels and detailed metal work
alone are worth 30,000 Silver Pieces.
Cloak of Protection: This item will subtract the requisite number from an opponents attack roll, but only if the wearer has an armor class of 9. Magic-Users and
Thieves only.
Crystal Ball: This wondrous (though morally problematic) device enables the user
to zoom in on the current activities of a chosen subject at a distance. A Crystal
Ball will be most effective if the user knows the subject well or when, say, he has a
piece of the subjects clothing in his possession. Its operation will be hindered by
great distances, or may be completely foiled by lead or certain protective spells.
Each day, up to three viewing attempts only may be made (more than that may
drive the user mad). Long or multiple uses may mandate at least an equal amount
of rest. Each time a Crystal Ball is used that there is at least a small chance that
the subject will know or at least suspect that he is being watched. Magic-Users
only.
Crystal Ball with Clairaudience: As above but the user can hear conversations
and the like. Magic-Users only.
Crystal Ball with ESP: As above but the user can read the thoughts of the subject. Magic-Users only.
Crystal Hypnosis Ball: This appears to be a normal Crystal Ball, but at best it will
perform no positive function and will merely leave the user catatonic for 3-24 turns.
If combined with a previously placed Magic Mouth spell, it might hypnotize the user
with a Suggestion.
Cube of Force: Pressing one facet of this small trinket (1 to a side) will generate
a powerful force field around the user. Nothing can immediately pass through it,
though large-scale fires and Fire Ball, Lightning Bolt, Phase Door, Disintegrate and
Pass-Wall spells, as well as four blasts from a Horn of Blasting will at least destroy
the field. It is usable three times a day and may be lowered by the user at any
time.
Decanter of Endless Water: True to its name, this nifty container will pour out
water continuously and unceasingly (or at least until the stopper is put back) at the
rate of ten gallons per turn.
Deck of Many Things: This item will immediately be recognized for what it isa
magical deck of cards with awesome and ominous powers to affect ones fortunes
for good or ill. One and only one person may decide to make use of it, and he may
draw at least one card. The effects are applied immediately, and another card may
then be drawn (up to four in all, or more if a Joker or Jokers are chosen). After
deciding to stop, or upon drawing the maximum number of cards, the remainder of
the deck will vanish.

Disappearance Dust: Sprinkling this powder in the air will cause all within a radius of 10 to become invisible for 5-30 turns.
Drums of Deafness: These resemble the Drums of Panic, below, but upon first
use all within 60 will be all but permanently deafened. Only a Remove Curse will
reverse this.
Drums of Panic: Each of these large kettledrums has an encumbrance of !!!!!
!!!!! and thus, a set of two may only be carried comfortably by a horse or the
equivalent. When struck, all creatures of fewer than 5 hit dice, and all noncarnivorous animals within a range of 120 will flee in panic. More powerful creatures may also flee but are entitled to a saving throw versus magic.

51

Dust of Appearance: When a pinch of this enchanted substance is thrown into


the air, all invisible, displaced, ethereal or other similar entities within a radius of
10 will become fully solid and visible for 12 turns. A typical quantity will be sufficient for 25 uses.
Dust of Sneezing and Choking: This appears to be either Disappearance Dust or
Dust of Appearance, but when thrown into the air, all within a radius of 10 will die
(saving throw permitted).
Efreet Bottle: An imprisoned Efreet will reluctantly serve the finder for a thousand
and one days.
Elven Boots: These boots allow completely silent movement through or over virtually any sort of surface, including crunchy ice, a creaking floor, etc. Of course
especially noisy armor may negate some of the effect.
Elven Cloak: This garment gives the wearer the near invisibility of an Elf.
Eyes of Charming: The wearer of these lenses may Charm persons as a Vampire
(-2 on saving throws against it).
Eyes of Petrification: Donning these cusps will instantly turn the wearer into
stone (saving throw permitted).
Figurines of Wondrous Power: These are small figurines, carvings or statuettes
that upon command will grow into a life-size (or larger) version of the creature represented. If they are slain in this form, their magical powers will cease.
Onyx Dog: The dog can sense most invisible, hidden and otherwise undetectable creatures and objects within 240. If cornered or commanded, it will fight as a
Wolf. It may be used twelve times. Hit Dice: 1. Armor Class: 7. Move: 18.
Marble Elephant: This war elephant will serve as a beast of burden or fighting
animal for up to one week, once per month. Hit Dice: 8. Attacks: 2-12 hits. Armor
Class: 4. Move: 12.
Ebony Fly: The fly is large enough for one man to ride. It may be used for up to
a days time, once per week. Hit Dice: 4. Armor Class: 5. Move: 6/24.
3 Ivory Goats: Each of these giant-sized goats may be used but once. The
Goat of Fleeing can accommodate two riders and will gallop untiringly to the
commanded location or for one full day. Hit Dice: 4. Armor Class: 6. Move: 48.
The Goat of Fighting and Goat of Slaying will be powerful and ferocious companions in melee. Goat of Fighting: Hit Dice: 10. Attacks: 4-24 hitsdouble if
charging. Armor Class: 2. Move: 12. Goat of Slaying: Hit Dice: 5+1. Attacks: 636 hits. Armor Class: 5. Move: 18.
2 Golden Lions: These may be used once per week and only in melee. Hit
Dice: 5. Attacks: two dice. Armor Class: 6. Move: 15.
Flask of Curses: When the stopper is removed from this innocuous looking container a horrible curse will be released.
52

Flying Carpet: A flying carpet


may carry up to three persons
at a move rate of 18, or one
person at a move rate of 30.
When not in use, it can be
caused to hover and may be
summoned at a distance of up
to 240. Knowledge of the
proper command word is required.
Gauntlets of Dexterity: While worn, these will add 2-8 points to ones dexterity.
Gauntlets of Fumbling: These appear to be useful gauntlets such as those above
and below. But at the first instance of combat or a similarly important or dangerous
situation their true nature will be revealed, with consequent effects determined by
the referee. After that point they will only be able to be removed by a Remove
Curse spell.
Gauntlets of Ogre Power: These will greatly enhance the strength of ones hands
and arms and will increase melee damage by +2. Fighting-Men and Thieves only.
Gauntlets of Swimming and Climbing: These will allow the user to swim at a
move rate of 18 (the standard for an unarmored man is 3) or climb virtually sheer
surfaces even while encumbered. Fighting-Men and Thieves only.
Gem of Brightness: This enchanted diamond (which usually comes housed in a
small hinged box) has an unearthly glittering to it that will fascinate those in close
proximity. Anyone looking directly into the stone will be half-blinded and from then
on suffer a -4 penalty on all attacks. (This may only be reversed with a Cure Serious
Wounds spell.) The stone may be used offensively by opening the box and focusing
it towards the eyes of the target. Unless the target is aware of its powers and thus
intentionally avoids looking at it, there is a 90% chance that he will be affected by it if
he is within 10, an 85% chance if he is within 20, an 80% chance if he is within 30,
and so on up to a 45% chance at 100. A Darkness spell will prevent it from working
for 1-4 turns, and a Continual Darkness spell will darken it for 1-4 days.
Gem of Seeing: Looking through this stone will allow the user to see hidden, invisible, ethereal or any other otherwise difficult or impossible to detect creatures,
entities or objects. A 10 x 10 area may be inspected in one full turn within a range
of 30.
Girdle of Femininity or Masculinity: This item will increase the masculinity of
male characters or the femininity of female characters in a manner equivalent to
adding +4 to their charisma score.
Girdle of Giant Strength: This item bestows on the wearer the strength of a Hill
Giant, including giving the wearer a +6 attack bonus. The bonus is not cumulative
with the normal attack bonus potentially granted by level. Thus, a 10th Level Lord
with an attack bonus of +7 would not be helped and would even be slightly hindered
by the item (it would make him more clumsy). The girdle does not increase damage.
53

Helm of Brilliance: This incredibly rich looking fiery and bejeweled helm is capable of conveying to its wearer a number of special protections and powers:
1
2
3

5
6

Protection against all normal fires, a +4 bonus to saving throws against Fire
Balls, Dragon breath and the like, and -2 to each die of damage from similar.
The power to create a Wall of Fire around the user upon command.
The power to transform the wearers ordinary or magical sword into a Flaming
Sword (see above), though the sword will retain any additional magical properties it already possesses (Fighting-Men only)
Enhancement of all Fire Ball spells cast, by +1 hit per die, the granting of one
additional Light or Continual Light spell for each one memorized and the power
to cause flammable objects within 30 to burst into flame upon command (Magic-Users only).
The granting of a +2 bonus to all reaction rolls when dealing with fire-dwelling
or fire-using creatures.
All cold-dwelling or using creatures will be quite hostile.

Helm of Chaos: If a Fighting-Man dons this helm, an ancient forcea Chaotic


demi-god or extremely evil high-level historical personagewill come to posses the
character and cause him to attempt to advance the side of Chaos. Once the character is possessed it will not be necessary for him to always wear the helm but he will
keep it near him at all times, as it is the source of his power. What precisely has
happened will not be immediately obvious to others. On the other hand, the increasingly erratic and odd behavior of the victim will be more and more apparent. The
possession will end only if the helm is utterly destroyed or cast off, for example, by
being tossed into deep ocean or into a bottomless crevice, etc. A Dispel Magic or
Remove Curse spell will merely cause the victim to briefly return to normal, perhaps
allowing a few seconds of conversation before the evil force regains control.
Helm of Reading Magic and Languages: Donning this helmet allows the wearer
to read any otherwise foreign or indecipherable writings, including magical ones. If
worn into combat, there is a 10% chance per successful attack that it will be
cleaved or smashed.
Helm of Telepathy: This piece of non-protective headgear allows the wearer to
read the thoughts of any creature within 90. In addition the wearer may attempt to
telepathically implant a Suggestion to the target in a manner similar to the spell.
However, if a saving throw is made, not only will the Suggestion fail, but in addition
the target will become aware of the attempt and probably aware of where it emanated from. All classes may use this item.
Helm of Teleportation: This item will allow a Magic-User to Teleport himself at
any time and as many times as he wishes as long as he simultaneously has a
Teleport spell in one of his memorized spell slots. In addition, using this form of
teleportation eliminates the possibility of Low results, while preserving the possibility of High and other off-target results.
Horn of Blasting: Use of this intimidating instrument will create a blast cone out
from the user, 100 long with a 20 base. All within the cone will suffer two dice of
damage and be deafened for one full turn with no saving throw. (Since they are
deafened, they will then be immune to the effects of further uses of the Horn for
54

that time.) In addition any door, gate or normal wall within the area of effect will be
crushed or smashed.
Horn of Bubbles: This resembles one of the Horns of Valhalla, below. But instead
of summoning Berserkers, the Horn will create a cloud of bubbles that will cling
around the user for 4-12 turns. The bubbles themselves will be transparent but
there will be so many of them that the cloud itself will be effectively opaque.
Horn of Collapsing: This cursed item appears to be a Horn of Blasting, but if
used indoors, will instead bring the ceiling down on the user, causing 7-42 points
of damage. If used out-of-doors, it will cause 4-24 rocks to fall out of the sky at the
user, each doing 1-3 points of damage. In either case the users companions, if
any, will be surprised but unharmed.
Horn of Valhalla, Bronze: Use of this item will summon 2-8 friendly Berserkers of
3rd level who will fight to the death, if necessary. Fighting-Men only.
Horn of Valhalla, Iron: As above but with Berserkers of 4th level. Fighting-Men only.
Horn of Valhalla, Silver: As above but with Berserkers of 2nd level. All classes
may use it.
Horseshoes of Speed: These will double the base move of any horse.
Jewel of Attacks upon the Owner: This unusually beautiful stone doubles the
chances of wandering monsters and increases the chances of pursuit by 50%.
Jug of Alchemy: This jug may be used to pour out one chosen ordinary liquid up
to seven times in in a day (a different liquid may be chosen each day). Maximum
amounts per pouring are as follows:
Liquid
Water
Beer
Wine
Oil
Acid
Hot Tea
Poison

Obviously, a great deal of liquid may be created in this manner. The catch, however is that unless it is ingested, whatever is magically poured will only remain
real until midnight of the day it was createdbefore evaporating or going bad,
etc.making accumulating it impossible and selling it problematic, to say the least.
Libram of Chaos: Magic-Users aligned with Chaos will gain one level upon carefully studying this volume. Neutral Magic-Users will not receive this benefit but will
be otherwise unaffected. Magic-Users aligned with Law will take 2-24 hits of damage. All others will take 3-12 hits.
Libram of Gainful Conjurations: Neutral Magic-users who read this book will
gain one level. Magic-Users not so aligned will take 4-16 hits of damage. All others
will be unaffected.
55

Libram of Silver Magic: The reverse (fortunately) of the Libram of Chaos.


Loadstone: This will appear to be a benign largish stone (encumbrance: !!!)
such as that for controlling Earth Elementals or a Luck Stone. However, if the person carrying it finds himself being pursued by an enemy or monster, he will discover that his movement is suddenly slowed by 50%. Thereafter, the stone will
resist being discardedtouching the stone or the pack containing it will deliver an
electric shock, etc.unless or until a Remove Curse is cast.
Luck Stone: This incredibly helpful largish stone (encumbrance: !!!) will increase
the possessors take from treasurein terms of either finding or divisionby 5%
to 20%. Fine-tuned referee discretion will be paramount here.
Lyre of Building: When strummed, this instrument will increase the productivity of
a construction project in a manner equivalent to one hundred men working for a
week. Alternatively, playing it will negate a Horn of Blasting. It is usable twice per
week in the first capacity and once per day in the second.
Manual of Bodily Health: The first person that carefully reads this useful tome
and carries out its exercises will gain 1 point in their constitution score. The volume
will then crumble into dust.
Manual of Gainful Exercise: As above, but applied to ones strength score.
Manual of the Gods of Law: This tome will only be useful to non-player character
Priests or High Priests aligned with Law. Upon studying it, these will immediately
go up one level. Evil Priests or Evil High Priests who read it will lose two levels.
Thieves reading it will take 4-28 hits of damage, while Magic-Users reading it will
take 1-20 hits of damage and lose 10,000 experience points. Fighting-Men will be
unaffected.
Manual of Golems: This book of instructions will enable a Magic-User to construct
a particular type of Golem. There is a 40% chance it will be for a Flesh Golem, a
30% chance it will be for a Clay Golem, a 20% chance it will be for a Stone Golem
and a 10% chance it will be for an Iron Golem. Creating a Golem will take from 1-3
months and cost 1,000 Silvers per hit point. Non-Magic-Users that handle this volume will take from 4-24 hits of damage.
Manual of Puissant Skill at Arms: Upon careful reading, Fighting-Men will gain
one level. Magic-Users will lose 10,000 experience points or be reduced to zero.
Thieves will be unaffected. After a Fighting-Man reads it, the book will vanish.
Manual of Quickness of Action: The first person that carefully contemplates this
books recommendations and follows its regimen will gain one point of dexterity.
The text will then transform itself into an attractive but useless self-help manual.
Manual of Stealthy Pilfering: After reading this book, Thieves will gain one level.
Fighting-Men will lose 2,000 experience points and Magic-Users will lose 5,000
experience points. Subsequent to benefitting a Thief the volume will self-combust
and be devoured by flames.
Mattock of the Titans: This gigantic wooden hammer will destroy a normal door
in 1 turn or a locked or magically held door, heavy gate or portcullis in 1-3 turns. It
56

is too large and unwieldy to be used in combat. It has !!!!! encumbrance.


Fighting-Men only.
Medallion of ESP, 30 Range: This works just like an ESP spell but with the caveat that it will malfunction on a roll of 6giving either no information or false information.
Medallion of ESP, 60 Range: As above.
Medallion of Thought Projection: The first time this item is used it will function
as a Medallion of ESP. However, on subsequent attempts it will generally work in
reverse, projecting ones thoughts to any creatures currently hidden behind doors
or walls. To confuse things even more, on all following uses it will temporarily revert to reading the thoughts of others on a roll of 6.
Mirror of Life Trapping: This will trap up to 20 creatures (including Undead and
other unusual types) within the mirror where they will remain until the Magic-User
possessing it calls them forth, or the mirror is broken. The possessor may converse with those inside but they themselves will be powerless and will be unable to
converse or interact with others so held (lucky for some of them). If the mirror is
openly displayed, someone unaware and unsuspecting of its properties will have a
90% chance of looking into the mirror if he comes within 10, thus becoming
trapped. However, if he is aware or suspicious, there will be less than a 10%
chance. 50% of the time a newly discovered mirror will already contain 1-6 trapped
creatures (determine randomly using the tables in Vol. 4).
Mirror Of Mental Prowess: This mirror functions as a Crystal Ball with Clairaudience, Clairvoyance and ESP. In addition it will answer one question a week regarding what is viewed. Usable by all classes.

57

Mirror of Opposition: This small but ornate mirror comes with a fine embroidered
covering. If a person looks into the mirror, an exact duplicate will spring out and
attack him.
Necklace of Missiles: This pendant contains from five to nine large beads. Each
may be hurled up to 120 where it will burst as a Fire Ball doing 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,
10 or 11 dice of damage. Typical distribution of beads will be as follows:
Number
of Beads

Beads/Number of Hit Dice Damage

Necklace of Strangulation: This piece looks like a Necklace of Missiles but when
placed around the neck will strangle the user in 2-5 turns. Only a Wish will stop the
process.
Phase Cloak: This garment, knit from the hairs of a Phase Spider, makes the user
appear to be 1-10 from his actual location. It will thus subtract -2 from the attack
rolls of opponents as well as adding +2 to saving throws against wands and the like.
Pipes of the Sewers: When played, these pipes will summon 10-60 Giant Rats in
1-4 turns. Each turn there is a 95% chance that they will obey the summoner, the
chance dropping cumulatively by 15% a turn if the summoner becomes otherwise
distracted. Note that the Pipes will not function in an area or type of terrain where
there is absolutely no chance of Rats (e.g., a desert).
Poisonous Cloak: This horrible covering appears to be a benign magical cloak,
but when donned it will kill the wearer (no saving throw).
Portable Hole: The hole will be 6 in diameter and up to 10 deep. One or more
persons may hide in it (pulling it up after them), though there will be no oxygen in
that extra-dimensional space.
Robe of the Archimagus: A Lawful Magic-User wearing this pure white robe will
have a 95% chance of success when casting the following spells: Charm, Hold
and Polymorph. There is a similar gray garment for neutral Magic-Users, and a
fulgin Robe of the Wizard for those aligned with Chaos. The chances for each
color are 60%, 30% and 10% respectively.
Robe of Blending: This garment allows the wearer to blend in, chameleon-like
with his surroundings in a manner tantamount to invisibility, though the robe will in
addition affect sound, smell and touch in a dynamic manner. Thus, if the wearer
walks amidst a horde of Goblins, he will sound, smell and (if a Goblin puts his
horny hand on him) feel like a Goblin. Characters of 11th or higher level or monsters of 11 or more hit dice have a 10% chance per level or hit die above 10 of
detecting the wearer. The wearer will always be completely visible to fellow party
membersthey will see him exactly as he actually is.
58

Robe of Eyes: A Magic-User wearing this super-powerful garment will be able to


see 240 in all directions as if Dust of Appearance covered all in the area. In addition, he will be aware of hidden enemies, making ambush or surprise effectively
impossible. Finally, he may successfully track any creature that has passed by
within one days time.
Robe of Powerlessness: This garment resembles other magic robes in majesty.
However, when it is donned, the wearers strength score will immediately be reduced to 3, and he will suffer a -2 penalty on attacks and defense and a -1 penalty
on melee damage. In addition all spells will be forgotten and no new spells may be
memorized. The robe may only be removed with a Remove Curse.
Rope of Climbing: This 50 long magical rope will fasten itself to or unfasten itself
from any surface or inanimate object upon command. It may then be climbed at
rapid speed. The rope may be thrown or it can itself climb like a snake.
Rope of Constriction: This cursed hemp entity resembles the items above and
below, but if an attempt is made to use it, it will entangle the user and from 1-5
others within 10. All will perish from constriction in 2-5 turns unless a Dispel Magic
spell is cast.
Rope of Entanglement: If this magical rope is thrown at a group of man-sized
opponents, it will entangle 2-8 of them upon command, holding them fast (greater
or lesser numbers of smaller or larger creatures will also be affected). Others may
try to free their comrades by attempting to cut the rope, but it can only be hit on a
natural roll of 20, and will take 20 points of damage. Range: 20.
Rug of Smothering: This resembles a Flying Carpet but on the first attempt to
use it the Rug will instantly enfold itself around the eager rider or riders and
smother him or them in 2-5 turns unless an Animate Objects spell is cast.
Saw of Mighty Cutting: This magical tool will cut through a normal-sized tree or
the equivalent in but 6 turns. Fighting-Men only.
Scarab of Death: After approximately one full turn of being worn or carried, this
scarab will transform into a horrible monster that will burrow into the heart of he
who possesses it, killing him unless a saving throw is made.
Scarab of Enraging Enemies: When this item is uncovered, all intelligent creatures within 60 will have a 50% chance of becoming completely enraged, attacking and continuing to attack whomever is nearest to them, foe or friend, for 6 turns.
The Scarab will have 1-20 charges.
Scarab of Insanity: When this item is displayed, all intelligent creatures within 30
will become afflicted with insanity for 12 turns. Creatures of 10 or more hit dice will
have a 25% chance of resisting. This device will contain 1-12 charges.
Scarab of Protection from Evil High Priests: This item will absorb and negate
the Finger of Death or Touch of Death up to a dozen times before crumbling into
dust.
59

Spade of Colossal Excavation: This tool will excavate a hole of 81 cubic feet (1
cubic yard or meter) in but one turn. However, it cannot by itself break through
stone. Fighting-Men only.
Sphere of Annihilation: This 2 diameter sphere of utter blackness will completely
and irreversibly destroy anything it comes in contact with. Its normal state is to
hover in one place. However, any Magic-User within 60 may attempt to induce it to
move in a desired direction or towards a particular target. There is a chance based
on the level and intelligence score of the Magic-User that he will be successful.
Check each turn. Failure indicates that the Sphere will instead move in the MagicUsers direction. If two or more Magic-Users attempt to control the Sphere at the
same time, check at a 10% penalty for the stronger one first, and then the weaker.
Failure for both means the sphere will move towards the weaker party. The Sphere
has a move rate of 3.

Stone of Controlling Earth Elementals: It will take as many as ten minutes to


unpack and prepare this item (encumbrance: !!! !!! !!!). An Earth Elemental
may then be summoned. Magic-Users only.
Talisman of Chaos: This horrific item will slay High Priests aligned with Law (no
saving throw) and thus will be greatly sought after by many. Lawful characters that
touch with it will instantly take 6-36 hits of damage. It may be used six times.
Talisman of Lawfulness: This unique and helpful item will, upon command, immediately sink an Evil High Priest into the center of the Earth (no saving throw). It
may be used up to seven times. It will not function for Neutral characters or
Thieves. Chaotic creatures that touch it will suffer 6-36 points of damage.
Talisman of the Sphere: This device will give the wearer a bonus of 20% to control a Sphere of Annihilation. If touched by a non-Magic-User, it will inflict 2-24
points of damage.
Tome of Clear Thought: Upon completing this volume, 1 point will be added to
the readers intelligence score.
Tome of Leadership and Influence: When opened and carefully perused, 1 point
of charisma will be conferred.
Tome of Understanding: Anyone who carefully and thoroughly reads this work
will immediately gain 1 point of wisdom.

Trident of Submission: Any creature struck by this super-powerful item will immediately surrender to the wielder (saving throw vs. magic allowed). However, the
victim will snap out of it in 3-12 turns. Fighting-Men only.
Trident of Warning: This magical weapon allows the user to know the location,
type and number of any hostile sea creatures within 240. Fighting-Men and
Thieves only.
Trident of Yearning: This cursed item causes the holder to desire to move as
efficaciously as possible to a large body of water and completely and permanently
immerse himself in it. It may only be countered with a Dispel Magic spell.
Wings of Flying: These allow one to fly at a rate of 15. However, after one hour
the user must rest for at least an equivalent time.

61

FABRICATING MAGIC ITEMS:


Archimagi and Wizards may manufacture magic items for personal use or for
sale. Typical minimum costs and fabrication times are given below. Many items will
often require special or rare ingredients or materials over and above standard
costs. For example, potion recipes may call for appropriate parts from particular
plants or monsters, armor construction may require the necessary quantities of
mithril or adamantite, and so on. If an item other than a potion has effects that duplicate or are strongly similar to a particular spell, knowledge of that spell will usually be required. For each level above 11th of the Magic-User, time required will be
reduced by -10%. Created rods, staves and wands will come with maximum
charges. If recharging such items is allowed, it is suggested that such may be
done at half the usual cost and time, prorated according to the number of charges
desired. Assuming a willing buyer exists and may be found, sale price for any
manufactured item will be on the order of a 1%-20% markup over standard cost
plus 100-600 Silver Pieces per week of work required for an 11th level Magic-User
(those of higher levels will finish in fewer weeks and thus potentially make more
profit per week).
Of course, creative players may propose that their characters design or fabricate
items not listed below. Such attempts should be allowed, but as always will be
subject to the discretion of the referee.
