Design changes for Spells

• Original Spell Lists: Cleric, Druid, Sorcerer, Wizard
• One thing to note, is that all spells that I am adding into this blog have the Spell list removed from them, besides anything I might be doing to tweak them for my home campaign. There is a source there if you want to look up the original version of the spell for your own campaigns, but mine does not need that information.
• What has been added is the Secret Crafts, which replace the spell lists, as all spells not from the players handbook will only be available as part of the secret crafts of the world.

3rd Edition Version

• Suffocate
• Necromancy [Air]
• Level: Clr 6, Drd 6, Sor/Wiz 6
• Components: V, S, M/DF
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Medium (100 ft + 10 ft/level)
• Target: One creature.
• Duration: 1 round/level (D)
• Saving Throw: Fortitude partial
• Spell Resistance: Yes

You such the air from the target’s lungs or other respiratory system. In addition to the danger of dying, ever round the target succeeds its Fortitude save, it suffers 1d6 points of subdual damage. If it falls unconscious from the subdual damage, the spell works as if it has failed a Fortitude save and its hit points drop to 0.

Each round the save DC increases by 1, if the creature fails a save, its hit points drop to 0, starting the next round they drop by -1 per round as the creature slowly suffocates. You can dispel the effect at any time, and the creature stabilises automatically if the effect ends before it dies.

Creatures that do no breath, such as undead and constructs, are completely unaffected. Creatures who breathe water are affected.

Material Component Focus: a gag made of cloth.
