spell name: SPIDER FAMILIAR | list name: arachnemancy | level: 1 | realm: essence | type: evil magician base | spell class: P | duration: permanent | range: Touch | area of effect: Small Spider | sourcebook: rolemaster companion 4 |
description: The caster can attune himself to a small spider (to be called his familiar). The caster must obtain the spider and cast the spell on the spider once/day for 1 week (concentrating for 2 hours/day). The caster can then control the familiar and view the world through its senses by concentrating on it (must be within 50'/lvl). If the animal is killed the caster will have a -25 modification to all actions for two weeks. There is a 10% chance per level of the caster that the spider will be poisonous. |
spell name: WEB MOVEMENT | list name: arachnemancy | level: 2 | realm: essence | type: evil magician base | spell class: U | duration: 10 minutes / level | range: Touch | area of effect: 1 Target | sourcebook: rolemaster companion 4 |

spell name: MINOR WEB | list name: arachnemancy | level: 3 | realm: essence | type: evil magician base | spell class: F | duration: 5 minutes / level | range: 50' | area of effect: 1 Target | sourcebook: rolemaster companion 4 |
description: There are two ways of using this spell. The first is offensive - web strands shoot out of the caster's index finger at one target. If the target fails an RR, the amount of his body that is covered in the web is equal to the percent of failure. For example, if a target fails his RR by 25, then 25% of his body is covered in webs. the portion of the body that is covered must be deterimed randomly by the GM. If a limb or limbs are covered, they cannot be used. Breaking the web requires a "very hard"" static maneuver (modified by Strength bonus). The second way of using this spell is for the caster to use web strands to move (ropes to climb, swing from, etc.). Each round of duration, a 10' strand can be produced that will support 200 lbs. One end will be sticky so that it will stick to ceilings and walls; the rest of the strand will not be stick so it may be climed, tied, etc. Alternately, the strand produced on a previous round may be extended by another 10'. This second option cannot be used offensively (the strands are too weak to take that much strain)." |
