Zoe's Psionic Enhancement (Alteration) Reversible Level 2 Wizard Spell Range: Touch Components: V Duration: Special Casting Time: 2 Area Of Effect: 1 Psionic Creature Saving Throw: Negates From: doppy@io.org (Ryan Biggs - the Net.psionics.handbook) This is an unusual spell for the simple reason that wizards don't like psionicists. (They would, however, like the reverse: Zodiac's Psionic Restriction.) This wizard spell can boost (or reduce) PSPs. The total can be raised above the normal max. At any rate, the bestowed PSPs disperse at 1 PSP per 2 rounds. Therefore, the bonus is short lived, so use them fast. They start to drain away the round after casting. This spell involves great concentration and is a drain on the wizard. 3 PSPs are given for each hp the spellcaster is willing to "cannibalize." The reverse, Zodiac's Psionic Restriction, drains PSPs at the rate of 3 PSPs per level per round. The duration is 1 round per 2 levels. A save (adjusted for wisdom) may be made each round the effect is applied. The caster can do very little while this spell is in effect. No spellcasting is possible. The caster may move at 1/2 his movement rate while this spell is in effect. 20 wisdom gives immunity to this spell. This spell was created by Zodiac. Zoe was an astrologer who later became a psionicist. After a near death experience (envolving illithids), she devoted her life to her god. As an ascetic, she still used her psionic talents. She researched this spell to allow herself to inhance her previous abilities. Dalen's Mental Resistance (Abjuration) Level 9 Wizard Spell Range: 20 yards Components: V,S,M Duration: 2 rounds/level Casting Time: 9 Area of Effect: One living being for every 5 levels Saving Throw: Neg. From: doppy@io.org (Ryan Biggs - the Net.psionics.handbook) This spell is used to stop all mental and psionic powers from affecting a specific being. This is accomplished by creating a field around the being affected that stops all mental energy from passing through it. This field, however stops the mental energy from either entering, or leaving. Thus, this could be used to stop a psionicist from using any powers on anyone but himself. It also grants immunity to any psionic attacks, including the dreaded mind flayer mental blast. It provides protection from any spell that deals with the mind of the person protectedas well as ANY psionic power. This will spell is quite similar to Mind Blank, except that it provides full protection against psionics and a few other mental powers. The list of spells that are protected against is to long to list, but if the spell affects the mind of the being, it will not work. Dalen was a Red Wizard of Thay, but was overthrown by another wizard who had a psionicist working for him. Dalen researched a way to stop psionics from working, and partially succeeded. He was hoping that a wall or sphere could be created, but found that this was impossible, because all the research he found pointed to the fact that such a field would have to be in close proximity to a living being, no more than an inch away in fact. Dalen later died when he tried to cast this spell on a psionic lich. Since the spell only affects living beings, which a lich is obviously not, Dalen was reduced to a mental vegtable and subsequently killed.
