Spells (was: god legends)

[Albert Sales]

Oblivion: No need for change in cost, but penalty for excessive use is needed to prevent an easy 1-shot disposal of opposition.

Quarrels: No change needed EXCEPT to increase cost of exclusions OR to clarify that victims do not neccissarily attack their allies with preference.

Fascination: A wonderful spell, good as it is (it leaves free-will in the victim until they turn into a vegetable). SOME effects simulated with fascination should have a different description as to use of power (such as the paralyzing gaze of a Great Serpent).

Elf-Shot: Needs clarification. It is BMC 1, making it easy to advance (good), but is an item creation spell. How does THIS work?

Time Travel: Oh, the world of possibilities. To include such a powerful spell in a game, the GM must have preparations for paradoxic activities. If I go back and kill my mother, I was never born to go back and kill my mother, thus I was born to do so.?.
