Boudewijn,
  I have recently picked up a copy if the 5th ed. of the Great Net Spell
Book.  I am very impressed with it, and am sure you deserve a great deal
of credit for the Tome's consistent look.

I have attached below a spell which I hope might be considered for the
next version of the GNSB, (I am assuming that you will be in charge of
the next version.

Enemies(Enchantment/Charm)                                                
Level: 6                                   Components: V,S,M              
Range: 6"                                  Casting Time: 3 segments       
Area of Effect: 1 creature                 Saving Throw: Special          
Duration: 4 rounds + 1 round/level                                        
                                                                          
Explanation/Description:  This spell allows the magic-user to bestow a    
charisma of -1 on any creature unless the saving throw vs, spells is made.
Creatures with high charisma get to add 1 to their saving throw per point 
of charisma above 14.  Creatures with low charisma subtract 1 from their  
saving throw per point of charisma below 8.  Any normal creature seeing a 
being with negative charisma will attack it immediately try to kill it in 
any way possible.  The spell has no effect on Gods and Demi-Gods.         
Creatures above 5 HD or 5th-level get a saving throw as to whether they   
attack the spell's recipient.  The negative charisma effect can be negated
by making the recipient invisible to normal view (invisibility, darkness, 
etc.), the spell can also be negated by a successful dispel magic.  The   
material components of this spell are a hemlock bud and a small piece of  
onyx.   

 Keep up the good work.
    Sincerely Yours,    Magus the Black     a.k.a. Douglas P. Webb
