This spell enables the target character to see warm-blooded creatures even while in the dark, and exits of a room as well.
This battlemage spell allows the bmage to effectively rescue the target, quite similar to the skill but with a much higher chance of success. It also, of courses, costs mana where the rescue skill does not.
The bandit, though not trained in acute vision has some ability to survey the area and determine if people might be hiding by looking at signs in the room. The bandit is generally very good at determining the number of people that might be hiding.
This spell is available to battlemages, and can only be cast on one's self. The spell allows the battlemage to regernerate instantaneously (i.e. hit points are gained between ticks instead of just at the tick) for a very short period of time. Return to Top

Syntax: nerve This is a quick accupressure jab to the neck of your opponent. The resulting damage to your opponent's nerves temporarily weakens them. Return to Top
Syntax: cast 'nexus' This spell is virtually identical to portal (see 'help portal'), with the only difference being that while portal creates a one-way gate, a nexus spell makes a two-sided gate. It also lasts longer than the lower-powered portal spell. Both spells require an additional power source, the secret of which has been lost... This spell can traverse the boundries of continents.
A nightshade skill that allows them to hide better than most.
A short-duration blind song that cannot be cured with cure blind.
Syntax: cast 'nondetection'

If at first you fail to dodge, block it. Parry is useful for deflecting attacks, and is successful more often than dodge.

Syntax: cast 'permanency'
This spell allows the transmuter to infuse his essence into the object, making any temporary affects permanent. Unfortunately, the exertion is extremely draining to the caster, and requires a great deal of time for rest and regeneration before the spell may be cast again.
It is highly sought-after to make items permanently blessed and fireproofed. Return to Top
Syntax: pick Syntax: pick Lock picking is one of the prime skills of thieves, allowing them to gain access to many secured areas. Lock picking chances are improved by intelligence, and hindered by the difficulty of the lock. Other classes may learn to pick locks, but they will never find it easy.
This bard song enables the bard to launch fierce, biting winds against anyone in the room not currently in the same group as the bard himself. It can be devastating at low levels.
Syntax: cast 'plague' The plague spell infests the target with a magical disease of great virulence, sapping its strength and causing horrific suffering, possibly leading to death. It is a risky spell to use, as the contagion can spread like wildfire if the victim makes it to a populated area. Return to Top

Polevault jump allows a person to catapult themself over a room using a staff. It does hurt when you fail, and of course it takes a bit more effort than just walking but it is a very proven way to avoid a room full of people wanting to wear your blood.
Syntax: cast 'portal' The portal spell is similar to gate, but creates a lasting one-way portal to the target creature, instead of transporting the caster. Portals are entered using 'enter' command, as in 'enter portal'. Portals cannot be made to certain destinations, nor used to escape from gate-proof rooms. Portal requires a special source of power to be used, unfortunately the secret of this material component has been lost... Portals can traverse the boundries of the continents. Use look in to see destination.
Syntax: cast 'possess familiar' cat cast 'possess familiar' raven incorporate
This spell allows a witch or a warlock to take control of their pet, inhabiting its body and seeing through its eyes. While possessing a familiar the caster is free to roam, but must take care that their actual body not be damaged while left unattended.
