Imaginem

Comeliness of the Crone

MuIm 10

R: Touch, D: Sun, T: Ind

The target appears less likeable, cute, and attractive. Numerous subtle changes in appearance bring about this change, including a shriller, higher pitched voice, a more crooked posture, and a slightly more bloated and unclean face and figure. The character gets a –3 modifier on all rolls to influence, seduce, or please others.

Aurulentus used this spell on his daughters to test whether their suitors were really more interested in personality than looks as they usually proclaimed. He stopped using it after his wife found out and forbade it. He now uses the Bachelor's Door (see Enchanted Items) to test suitors of his daughters — without the knowledge of his wife.

(Base 3, +1 Touch, +2 Sun)

Ears of a Grateful Father

PeIm 20

R: Touch, D: Conc, T: Group

All voices emitted by a group of individuals will be decreased in volume to that of a normal conversation. Aurulentus invented this spell after he had to babysit ten screaming infants.

(Base 3, +1 Touch, +1 Conc, +2 Group, +1 changing images)

Phantasmal Troupe

CrIm 15

R: Voice, D: Conc, T: Ind

Creates illusionary music from a direction that the caster specifies. A full troupe of musicians can be simulated in this way, with a finesse roll determining the quality of the music. Aurulentus uses this spell to amuse his wife and children. It was originally invented by his parens, Altus, with the same motivation.

(Base 1, +2 Voice, +1 Conc, +2 change at command, +1 intricacy)
