TAR POOL
School transmutation [earth,
fire]; Level druid 6, sorcerer/wizard 6, summoner 5
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M/DF (a
ball of hardened tar)
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2
levels)
Area 20-ft.-radius burst
Duration 1 round/level
Saving Throw Reflex partial, see text; Spell Resistance no
You convert a layer of the ground to hot tar. Creatures in the area when the
tar appears take 1d6 points of fire damage per two caster levels (maximum of 10d6)
and must succeed at a Reflex save or become entangled. An entangled creature receives
a saving throw each round to free itself from the tar, and can also attempt to free
itself by spending a move action to attempt a Strength check or Escape Artist check
(DC = spell saving throw DC).
It costs 2 squares of movement to enter a square in the area of effect, and
the DC of Acrobatics checks within the area of effect increases by 5. The area is
difficult terrain. A creature that
moves into or starts its turn in the area takes 2d6 points of fire damage and must
reattempt this Reflex save or become entangled. A creature that falls prone in the area takes a –4 penalty
on its Reflex save against the tar and on Strength and Escape Artist checks to escape
the tar.
A creature that escapes the tar still takes fire damage from the tar until
the spell ends or that creature spends a full-round action removing the tar. A creature
with tar on it takes a –4 penalty on Acrobatics and Fly checks made to fly with
wings or similar appendages.
Diminished
Effects
The tar does not cause entanglement.
Heightened
Effects
Creatures in the area when the tar
appears take 1d6 points of fire damage per caster level (maximum of 15d6).
TELEKINESIS
School transmutation; Level
magus 5, sorcerer/wizard 5
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S
Range long (400 ft. + 40
ft./level)
Target or Targets see text
Duration concentration
(up to 1 round/level) or instantaneous; see text
Saving Throw Will negates (object) or none; see text; Spell Resistance yes (object);
see text
You move objects or creatures by concentrating on them. Depending on the version
selected, the spell can provide a gentle, sustained force, perform a variety of
combat maneuvers, or exert a single short, violent thrust.
Sustained Force: A sustained force moves an object weighing no more
than 25 pounds per caster level (maximum 375 pounds at 15th level) up to 20 feet
per round. A creature can negate the effect on an object it possesses with a successful
Will save or with spell resistance.
This version of the spell can last 1 round per caster level, but it ends if
you cease concentration. The weight can be moved vertically, horizontally, or in
both directions. An object cannot be moved beyond your range. The spell ends if
the object is forced beyond the range. If you cease concentration for any reason,
the object falls or stops.
An object can be telekinetically manipulated as if with one hand. For example,
a lever or rope can be pulled, a key can be turned, an object rotated, and so on,
if the force required is within the weight limitation. You might even be able to
untie simple knots, though delicate activities such as these require DC 15 Intelligence
checks.
Combat Maneuver: Alternatively, once per round, you can use telekinesis
to perform a bull rush, disarm, grapple (including pin), or trip. Resolve these
attempts as normal, except that they don't provoke attacks of opportunity, you use
your caster level in place of your Combat Maneuver Bonus, and you add your Intelligence
modifier (if a magus or wizard) or Charisma modifier (if a sorcerer) in place of
your Strength or Dexterity modifier. No save is allowed against these attempts,
but spell resistance applies normally. This version of the spell can last 1 round
per caster level, but it ends if you cease concentration.
Violent Thrust: Alternatively, the spell energy can be spent in a single
round. You can hurl one object or creature per caster level (maximum 15) that are
within range and all within 10 feet of each other toward any target within 10 feet
per level of all the objects. You can hurl up to a total weight of 25 pounds per
caster level (maximum 375 pounds at 15th level).
You must succeed on attack rolls (one per creature or object thrown) to hit
the target with the items, using your base attack bonus + your Intelligence modifier
(if a magus or wizard) or Charisma modifier (if a sorcerer). Weapons cause standard
damage (with no Strength bonus; note that arrows or bolts deal damage as daggers
of their size when used in this manner). Other objects cause damage ranging from
1 point per 25 pounds (for less dangerous objects) to 1d6 points of damage per 25
pounds (for hard, dense objects). Objects and creatures that miss their target land
in a square adjacent to the target.
Creatures who fall within the weight capacity of the spell can be hurled,
but they are allowed Will saves (and spell resistance) to negate the effect, as
are those whose held possessions are targeted by the spell.
If a telekinesed creature is hurled against a solid surface, it takes damage
as if it had fallen 10 feet (1d6 points).
Diminished
Effects
The sustained
force version of the spell moves an object weighing no more than to 25
pounds per two caster levels (maximum 250 pounds at 10th level).
You cannot utilize the combat
maneuver version of the spell.
The violent thrust version of
the spell can hurl one creature or object per two caster levels (maximum 10),
up to a total weight of 25 pounds per two caster levels (maximum 250 pounds at
20th level).
Heightened
Effects
The sustained
force version of the spell moves an object weighing no more than to 25
pounds per caster level (maximum 500 pounds at 20th level).
When utilizing the combat maneuver version
of the spell, you gain a +4 bonus on your combat maneuver check.
The violent thrust version of
the spell can hurl one creature or object per caster level (maximum 20), up to
a total weight of 25 pounds per caster levels (maximum 500 pounds at 20th
level).

Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2
levels)
Target one willing creature
Duration instantaneous
Saving Throw Will negates (harmless); Spell Resistance yes (harmless)
You telekinetically launch an ally across the battlefield to anywhere within
this spell's range. While moving, your ally is flying just above the ground unless
you wish otherwise. Movement from this spell provokes attacks of opportunity as
normal, although you can lift your ally over objects or out of enemy reach, as long
as your ally remains within this spell's range. If your ally lands adjacent to an
opponent, he can spend an immediate action to make a melee attack against that opponent
with a +2 bonus on the attack roll.
Diminished

The spell’s target becomes you.
Heightened
Effects
The spell’s target becomes one willing
creature per three caster levels, no two of which can be more than 30 feet

Targets you plus one
willing creature per three levels, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart
Duration 10 min./level
(D)
Saving Throw none; Spell Resistance no
You forge a telepathic bond among yourself and a number of willing creatures,
each of which must have an Intelligence score of 3 or higher. Each creature included
in the link is linked to all the others. The creatures can communicate telepathically
through the bond regardless of language. No special power or influence is established
as a result of the bond. Once the bond is formed, it works over any distance (although
not from one plane to another).
If desired, you may leave yourself out of the telepathic bond forged. This
decision must be made at the time of casting.
Telepathic bond can be made permanent with a permanency spell, though it only
bonds two creatures per casting of permanency.
Diminished
Effects
The spell’s duration becomes 1 minute per caster level.
Heightened

The spell’s targets become you plus one
willing creature per caster level, no two of which can be more than 30 feet

TELEPORT
School conjuration (teleportation); Level sorcerer/wizard 5, summoner 4,
magus 5, witch 5; Domain travel 5; Bloodline abyssal 7, arcane 7
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V
Range personal and touch
Target you and touched objects
or other touched willing creatures
Duration instantaneous
Saving Throw none and Will negates (object); Spell Resistance no and yes (object)
This spell instantly transports you to a designated destination, which may
be as distant as 100 miles per caster level. Interplanar travel is not possible.
You can bring along objects as long as their weight doesn't exceed your maximum
load. You may also bring one additional willing Medium or smaller creature (carrying
gear or objects up to its maximum load) or its equivalent per three caster levels.
A Large creature counts as two Medium creatures, a Huge creature counts as four
Medium creatures, and so forth. All creatures to be transported must be in contact
with one another, and at least one of those creatures must be in contact with you.
As with all spells where the range is personal and the target is you, you need not
make a saving throw, nor is spell resistance applicable to you. Only objects held
or in use (attended) by another person receive saving throws and spell resistance.
You must have some clear idea of the location and layout of the destination.
The clearer your mental image, the more likely the teleportation works. Areas of
strong physical or magical energy may make teleportation more hazardous or even
impossible.
To see how well the teleportation works, roll d% and consult the table at
the end of this spell. Refer to the following information for definitions of the
terms on the table.
Familiarity: “Very familiar” is a place where you have been very
often and where you feel at home. “Studied carefully” is a place you know well,
either because you can currently physically see it or you've been there often. “Seen
casually” is a place that you have seen more than once but with which you are not
very familiar. “Viewed once” is a place that you have seen once, possibly using
magic such as scrying.
“False destination” is a place that does not truly exist or if you are teleporting
to an otherwise familiar location that no longer exists as such or has been so completely
altered as to no longer be familiar to you. When traveling to a false destination,
roll 1d20+80 to obtain results on the table, rather than rolling d%, since there
is no real destination for you to hope to arrive at or even be off target from.
On Target: You appear where you want to be.
Off Target: You appear safely a random distance away from the destination
in a random direction. Distance off target is d% of the distance that was to be
traveled. The direction off target is determined randomly.
Similar Area: You wind up in an area that's visually or thematically
similar to the target area. Generally, you appear in the closest similar place within
range. If no such area exists within the spell's range, the spell simply fails instead.
Mishap: You and anyone else teleporting with you have gotten
“scrambled.” You each take 1d10 points of damage, and you reroll on the chart to
see where you wind up. For these rerolls, roll 1d20+80. Each time “Mishap” comes
up, the characters take more damage and must reroll.

alchemist 3, druid 4
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, DF
Range personal
Target you

unarmed strike, or a natural weapon provokes an attack of opportunity from you.
If the creature attacks you with a melee weapon, the attack of opportunity can
be used to perform a disarm, steal, or sunder combat maneuver. If the
creature attacks you with an unarmed strike or natural weapon, the attack of
opportunity can be used to perform a drag, grapple, or trip combat maneuver. Combat
maneuvers performed as part of this spell to not evoke attacks of opportunity.
THREEFOLD ASPECT
School transmutation; Level
druid 5, witch 4
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components S, F (silver
crescent worth 5 gp)
Range personal
Target you
Duration 24 hours (D)
Threefold aspect allows you to shift your appearance
between your natural age and three idealized age categories: young adult (youth/maiden),
adulthood (father/mother), or elderly (elder/crone). In each case, your appearance
is your own at the appropriate age, rather than that of a new individual.
You may change between these three aspects or your actual age as a standard
action. As the young adult, you gain a +2 enhancement bonus to Dexterity and Constitution,
but suffer a –2 penalty to Wisdom. In the adult aspect, you gain a +2 enhancement
bonus to Wisdom and Intelligence, but take a –2 penalty to Dexterity. As the elderly
aspect, you gain a +4 enhancement bonus to Wisdom and Intelligence, but take a –2
penalty to Strength and Dexterity. As enhancement bonuses, these stack with any
bonuses or penalties you may have from your actual age (which are untyped bonuses)—the
bonuses granted by this spell represent your idealized form in this threefold aspect
rather than simply duplicating your ability scores at any one particular age.
True seeing reveals your natural appearance overlaid with that your
aspect, recognizing both as part of your true self. Individuals who study you closely
and have interacted with you at another apparent age recognize a resemblance (as
though family) with a successful DC 20 Perception check.
Threefold aspect does not alter your clothing or
equipment, and does not heal any deformity or injury unrelated to age.
Diminished
Effects
As the young adult, you gain a +2
enhancement bonus to Dexterity and Constitution, but suffer a –2 penalty to
Wisdom and Intelligence. In the adult aspect, you gain a +2 enhancement bonus
to Wisdom and Intelligence, but take a –2 penalty to Strength and Dexterity. As
the elderly aspect, you gain a +4 enhancement bonus to Wisdom and Intelligence,
but take a –2 penalty to Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution.
Heightened
Effects
As the young adult, you gain a +4
enhancement bonus to Dexterity and Constitution, but suffer a –2 penalty to
Wisdom. In the adult aspect, you gain a +4 enhancement bonus to Wisdom and
Intelligence, but take a –2 penalty to Dexterity. As the elderly aspect, you
gain a +6 enhancement bonus to Wisdom and Intelligence, but take a –2 penalty
to Strength and Dexterity.

You strike the ground in front of you, filling the area in front of you with
the thunder of pounding drums. Any creature in the area takes 1d8 points of sonic
damage per caster level (maximum 5d8) and is knocked prone. A successful Fortitude save
halves the damage and negates being knocked prone.

Components V, S, M (a small
crystal bead)
Range 20 ft.
Effect 20-ft.-radius sphere
centered on your location
Duration 2 hours/level
(D)
Saving Throw none; Spell Resistance no
You create an unmoving, opaque sphere of force of any color you desire around
yourself. Half the sphere projects above the ground, and the lower hemisphere passes
through the ground. As many as nine other Medium creatures can fit into the field
with you; they can freely pass into and out of the hut without harming it. However,
if you remove yourself from the hut, the spell ends.
The temperature inside the hut is 70° F if the exterior temperature is between
0° and 100° F. An exterior temperature below 0° or above 100° lowers or raises the
interior temperature on a 1-degree-for-1 basis. The hut also provides protection
against the elements, such as rain, dust, and sandstorms. The hut withstands any
wind of less than hurricane force, but a hurricane (75+ mph wind speed) or greater
force destroys it.
The interior of the hut is a hemisphere. You can illuminate it dimly upon
command or extinguish the light as desired. Although the force field is opaque from
the outside, it is transparent from within. Missiles, weapons, and most spell effects
can pass through the hut without affecting it, although the occupants cannot be
seen from outside the hut (they have total concealment).
Diminished
Effects
The spell’s range becomes 10 feet, its effect becomes a 10-foot-radius sphere
centered on your location, and its duration becomes 1 hour per caster level. As many as four other Medium creatures can
fit into the field with you.
Heightened
Effects
Creatures who spend at least eight uninterrupted hours of sleep in the hut
(including yourself) regain hit points and ability damage as if they had
undergone a full day of bed rest (regaining twice its character level in hit
points and restoring 2 points of ability damage for each affected ability
score).

Casting Time 1 standard action
Range touch
Target living creature touched
Duration instantaneous
Saving Throw Fortitude negates; Spell Resistance yes
You create a coating of slime on your hand. When you make a successful melee
touch attack with the slime, it pulls free of you and sticks to the target, at which
point it acts like green slime, dealing 1d3 points of
Constitution damage per round. Anything that destroys green slime (scraping, freezing,
burning, cutting, sunlight, or remove disease) destroys this
slime. If the slime kills a creature, it consumes the body and then dies. It cannot
transfer to a creature other than the original target, and dies if separated from
the original target.
Diminished
Effects
The green slime instead deals 1d3 points of Strength damage per round.
Heightened
Effects
Any creature striking the target with a
melee touch attack, a melee weapon, an unarmed strike, or a natural weapon or
who in any way comes into physical contact with the target must make a
Fortitude save or be attacked by the green ooze.
TRANSMOGRIFY

Target your eidolon
Duration instantaneous
Saving Throw Will negates (harmless); Spell Resistance no
Your eidolon's form shifts and transforms. This spell allows you to change
any of the eidolon's evolutions by allocating its evolution pool on new evolutions.
If you have the aspect or greater aspect ability, this spell also allows you to
change the evolution points spent to modify you, including removing or adding points
as allowed by those abilities.
Your eidolon cannot benefit from this spell more than once per day. This spell
does not allow you to change your eidolon's base form.
Diminished

You can only reallocate up to one half (round down) of your eidolon’s evolution
pool.
Heightened

TRANSMUTE ROCK TO MUD
School transmutation [earth];
Level druid 5, sorcerer/wizard 5
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M/DF (clay
and water)
Range medium (100 ft. + 10
ft./level)
Area up to two 10-ft. cubes/level
(S)
Duration permanent; see
text
Saving Throw see text; Spell Resistance no
This spell turns natural, uncut, or unworked rock of any sort into an equal
volume of mud. Magical stone is not affected by the spell. The depth of the mud
created cannot exceed 10 feet. A creature unable to levitate, fly, or otherwise
free itself from the mud sinks until hip- or chest-deep, reducing its speed to 5
feet and causing a –2 penalty on attack rolls and AC. Brush or similar material
thrown atop the mud can support creatures able to climb on top of it. Creatures
large enough to walk on the bottom can wade through the area at a speed of 5 feet.
If transmute rock to mud is cast upon the ceiling of a cavern or tunnel,
the mud falls to the floor and spreads out in a pool at a depth of 5 feet. The falling
mud and the ensuing cave-in deal 8d6 points of bludgeoning damage to anyone caught
directly beneath the targeted area, or half damage to those who succeed on Reflex
saves.
Castles and large stone buildings are generally immune to the effect of the
spell, since transmute rock to mud can't affect worked stone and doesn't
reach deep enough to undermine such buildings' foundations. However, small buildings
or structures often rest upon foundations shallow enough to be damaged or even partially
toppled by this spell.
The mud remains until a successful dispel magic or transmute mud
to rock spell restores its substance—but not necessarily its form. Evaporation
turns the mud to normal dirt over a period of days. The exact time depends on exposure
to the sun, wind, and normal drainage.
Transmute rock to mud counters and dispels
transmute mud to rock.
Diminished
Effects
The spell’s range becomes close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels), and its area becomes

20 feet.
TREASURE STITCHING
School transmutation; Level

of embroidered cloth no larger than 10-ft. square worth 100 gp)
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2
levels)
Targets all objects
on cloth
Duration 1 day/level
(D)
Saving Throw Fortitude negates (object); Spell Resistance yes (object)
You can transform all objects placed on a cloth into an embroidered, two-dimensional
representation, making it easy for you to store and transport the items. You can
pile any amount or weight of objects on the cloth so long as the pile stays within
the dimensions of the cloth (up to a 10-foot cube). When you cast the spell the
entire pile disappears into the cloth, replaced by a highly accurate, sewn picture
of the pile from whatever angle you wish. The cloth retains its normal weight and
dimensions. You can restore the pile of objects at any time as a full-round action
by unfurling the cloth and ordering the spell to end, consuming the cloth. Anyone
else wishing to restore the objects must successfully dispel your spell. If the
cloth is destroyed or significantly damaged, all objects held within the cloth are
lost. This spell cannot affect artifacts or other sorts of similarly unique objects.
Diminished
Effects
The spell’s range becomes touch, and its duration becomes 1 hour per caster
level.
Heightened
Effects
Casting the spell imbues the cloth with the strength of steel (hardness 10; hp
10) without altering its weight or flexibility. If you wear the cloth in your
shoulders slot (as if you were wearing a cape or a cloak), you receive a +1
shield bonus to AC (armor check penalty 0; arcane spell failure chance —).
TREE STRIDE
School conjuration (teleportation);
Level druid 5, ranger 4
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, DF
Range personal
Target you
Duration 1 hour/level
or until expended; see text
When you cast this spell, you gain the ability to step into a tree, magically
infusing yourself with the plant. Once within a tree, you can teleport from that
particular tree to another tree. The trees you enter must be of the same kind, must
be living, and must have girth at least equal to yours. By moving into an oak tree
(for example), you instantly know the location of all other oak trees within transport
range (see below) and may choose whether you want to pass into one or simply step
back out of the tree you moved into. You may choose to pass to any tree of the appropriate
kind within the transport range as shown on the following table.
|
Type of Tree
|
Transport Range

Elm, linden
|
2,000 feet
|
|
Other deciduous
|
1,500 feet
|
|
Any coniferous
|
1,000 feet
|
You may move into a tree up to one time per caster level (passing from one
tree to another counts only as moving into one tree). The spell lasts until the
duration expires or you exit a tree. Each transport is a full-round action.
You can, at your option, remain within a tree without transporting yourself,
but you are forced out when the spell ends. If the tree in which you are concealed
is chopped down or burned, you are slain if you do not exit before the process is
complete.
Diminished
Effects
The spell’s duration becomes 10 minutes per caster level.
Heightened
Effects
The spell’s range becomes personal and touch, and its target becomes you and
one additional willing Medium or smaller creature or its equivalent per three
caster levels. A Large creature counts as two Medium creatures, a Huge creature
counts as four Medium creatures, and so forth. All creatures to be transported
must be in contact with one another, and at least one of those creatures must

School abjuration; Level
druid 4, sorcerer/wizard 4
Casting Time 1 standard action
Component V, S
Range medium (100 ft. + 10
ft./level)
Target up to one creature/3
levels, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart
Duration 1 round/level
Saving Throw Will negates; Spell Resistance yes
True form removes any polymorph effect from a target creature,
returning it to its true form, even against its will. Against creatures affected
by polymorph spell effects (such as baleful polymorph or giant
form), you must make a caster level check (1d20 + caster level, maximum +15)
against a DC of 11 + caster level of the effect. Success means that the polymorph
effect immediately ends.
A creature with the supernatural ability to change shape (such as a lycanthrope)
must make a Will saving throw or immediately revert to its true form. If it fails
this first saving throw, the creature can attempt another Will saving throw to overcome
the spell as a full-round action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity. If
this save succeeds, the spell ends and the creature is capable of changing shape
once again. If the second save fails, the creature is locked in its true form for
the duration of the spell, preventing any further polymorph effects from changing
its shape.
Diminished
Effects
The spell’s target becomes one creature.
Heightened
Effects
The spell’s target becomes one creature per three caster levels, no two of which can be more than 30 feet
apart.
TRUE SEEING
School divination; Level alchemist 6, cleric/oracle 5, druid 7, inquisitor
5, magus 6, sorcerer/wizard 6, summoner 5, witch 6; Domain knowledge 5; Bloodline
arcane 6
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M (an
eye ointment that costs 250 gp)
Range touch
Target creature touched
Duration 1 min./level
Saving Throw Will negates (harmless); Spell Resistance yes (harmless)
You confer on the subject the ability to see all things as they actually are.
The subject sees through normal and magical darkness, notices secret doors hidden
by magic, sees the exact locations of creatures or objects under blur or displacement effects, sees invisible creatures or objects normally,
sees through illusions, and sees the true form of polymorphed, changed, or transmuted
things. Further, the subject can focus its vision to see into the Ethereal Plane
(but not into extradimensional spaces). The range of true seeing conferred
is 120 feet.
True seeing, however, does not penetrate solid objects. It in no
way confers X-ray vision or its equivalent. It does not negate concealment, including
that caused by fog and the like. True seeing does not help the viewer see
through mundane disguises, spot creatures who are simply hiding, or notice secret
doors hidden by mundane means. In addition, the spell effects cannot be further
enhanced with known magic, so one cannot use true seeing through a crystal ball or in conjunction
with clairaudience/clairvoyance.
Diminished
Effects
The range of true seeing conferred
is 30 feet.
Heightened
Effects
The spell’s target becomes creatures touched, but you divide the duration in
1-minute intervals among the creatures touched.
TWILIGHT KNIFE
School evocation [force];
Level sorcerer/wizard 3, witch 3
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, F (a small
knife)
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2
levels)
Effect floating knife of force
Duration 1 round/level
(D)
Saving Throw none; Spell Resistance yes
You create a darkly sinister floating knife that attacks the same creature
as you each round. If you choose not to attack a creature, or you make an attack
that affects multiple opponents, the knife makes no attack during that round. The
knife uses your base attack bonus modified by either your Intelligence or Charisma
bonus (whichever is higher) when making this attack. Unless you specifically will
it to do otherwise, or it proves impossible to do so, the knife always maneuvers
itself so that it can flank your opponent before making the attack. The knife deals
1d4 points of force damage on a successful hit and has the same threat range and
critical multipliers as a normal dagger. In addition, if the target is denied a
Dexterity bonus to AC or the knife flanks the target, the knife can make sneak attacks
as a rogue, inflicting an extra 1d6 points of force damage per four caster levels
on a successful attack.
A twilight knife cannot be attacked or harmed by physical attacks,
but dispel magic, disintegrate, a sphere of annihilation, or a rod of cancellation affects it.
A twilight knife's AC against touch attacks is 12 (10 + size bonus for Tiny
object) plus your Dexterity modifier.
If an attacked creature has spell resistance, you make a caster level check
(1d20 + caster level) against that spell resistance the first time the twilight
knife strikes it. If the knife is successfully resisted, the spell is dispelled.
If not, the weapon has its normal full effect on that creature for the duration
of the spell.
Diminished
Effects
When the knife sneak attacks, it only inflicts an extra 1d6 points of force damage per six caster levels on a successful attack.
Heightened
Effects
At 10th level, the knife gains the corrosive, flaming, frost, or shock weapon property
(your choice at the time of casting). At 15th level, the weapon gains the corrosive burst, flaming burst, icy burst, or shocking burst weapon
property (your choice at the time of casting). The spell gains the elemental
descriptor associated with whichever weapon property used.
UNBREAKABLE CONSTRUCT
School abjuration; Level
sorcerer/wizard 5
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M (powdered
adamantine worth 100 gp)
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2
levels)
Target one construct
Duration 1 round/level
Saving Throw Will negates (harmless); Spell Resistance no
This spell increases the target's DR/adamantine by 5 or its hardness by 5.
If the target does not have DR/adamantine or hardness, this spell has no effect.
Diminished
Effects
The spell’s range becomes touch.
Heightened
Effects
In addition to increasing the creature’s DR or hardness, the creature’s
DR/adamantine becomes DR/epic instead.
UNDEAD ANATOMY
School transmutation (polymorph);
Level alchemist 3, magus 3, sorcerer/wizard 3
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M (a piece
of the creature whose form you plan to assume)
Range personal
Target you
Duration 1 minute/level
(D)
When you cast this spell, you can assume the form of any Small or Medium corporeal
creature of the undead type, which must be vaguely humanoid-shaped (like a ghoul,
skeleton, or zombie). You gain a bite attack (1d6 for Medium forms, 1d4 for Small
forms), two claw or slam attacks (1d6 for Medium forms, 1d4 for Small forms), and
darkvision 60 feet. If the form you assume has any of the following abilities, you
gain the listed ability: climb 30 feet, fly 30 feet (average maneuverability), swim
30 feet, low-light vision, and scent.
In this form, you detect as an undead creature (such as with detect undead, but not with magic
that reveals your true form, such as true seeing) and are treated as undead
for the purposes of channeled energy, cure spells, and inflict spells,
but not for other effects that specifically target or react differently to undead
(such as searing light).
Small undead: If the form you take is that of a Small undead, you
gain a +2 size bonus to your Dexterity and a +1 natural armor bonus.
Medium undead: If the form you take is that of a Medium undead, you
gain a +2 size bonus to your Strength and a +2 natural armor bonus.
Diminished
Effects
The spell’s duration becomes 1 round per caster level.
Heightened
Effects
You can assume the form of a Tiny or Large corporeal creature of the undead
type. If the form you assume has any of the following abilities, you gain the
listed ability: climb 60 feet, fly 60 feet (good maneuverability), swim 60
feet, darkvision 60 feet, low-light vision, blood drain, DR 5/bludgeoning,
scent, freeze, grab, mimicry, pounce, shadowless, sound mimicry, and trip.
In this form, you
gain a +4 bonus on saves against mind-affecting effects, disease, poison,
sleep, and stunning. If the form has a vulnerability to an attack (such as
sunlight), you gain that vulnerability.
Tiny undead: If the form you
take is that of a Tiny undead, you gain a +4 size bonus to your Dexterity, a –2
penalty to your Strength, and a +1 natural armor bonus.
Large undead: If the form you
take is that of a Large undead, you gain a +4 size bonus to your Strength, a –2
penalty to your Dexterity, and a +4 natural armor bonus.
Notes This spell combines
the effects of the following spells: undead
anatomy I and undead anatomy II.
UNHALLOW
School evocation [evil]; Level
cleric/oracle 5, druid 5, inquisitor 5
Casting Time 24 hours
Components V, S, M (herbs,
oils, and incense worth at least 1,000 gp, plus 1,000 gp per level of the spell
to be tied to the unhallowed area)
Range touch
Area 40-ft. radius emanating
from the touched point
Duration instantaneous
Saving Throw see text; Spell Resistance see text
Unhallow makes a particular site, building, or structure an unholy
site. This has three major effects.
First, the site or structure is guarded by a magic circle against good effect.
Second, the DC to resist negative channeled energy within the spell's area
of effect gains a +4 sacred bonus and the DC to resist positive energy is reduced
by 4. Spell resistance does not apply to this effect. This provision does not apply
to the druid version of the spell.
Finally, you may choose to fix a single spell effect to the unhallowed
site. The spell effect lasts for 1 year and functions throughout the entire
site, regardless of its normal duration and area or effect. You may designate whether
the effect applies to all creatures, creatures that share your faith or alignment,
or creatures that adhere to another faith or alignment. At the end of the year,
the chosen effect lapses, but it can be renewed or replaced simply by casting unhallow
again.
Spell effects that may be tied to an unhallowed site include aid, bane, bless, darkness, daylight, death ward, detect evil, detect magic, dimensional anchor, discern lies, dispel magic,
endure elements, freedom of movement, invisibility purge, protection from energy, remove fear, resist energy, scare, silence, tongues, and zone of truth.
Saving throws and spell resistance might apply to these spells' effects. (See
the individual spell descriptions for details.)
An area can receive only one unhallow spell (and its associated spell
effect) at a time.
Unhallow counters but does not dispel hallow.
Diminished Effects The spell effect only lasts for 1 month. At the end of the
month, the chosen effect lapses, but it can be renewed or replaced simply by casting
unhallow
again.
Heightened Effects The spell’s area increases to an 80-foot radius emanation
from the touched point.
UNHOLY BLIGHT
School evocation [evil]; Level
cleric/oracle 4, inquisitor 4; Domain evil 4
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S
Range medium (100 ft. + 10
ft./level)
Area 20-ft.-radius spread
Duration instantaneous
(1d4 rounds); see text
Saving Throw Will partial; Spell Resistance yes
You call up unholy power to smite your enemies. The power takes the form of
a cold, cloying miasma of greasy darkness. Only good and neutral (not evil) creatures
are harmed by the spell.
The spell deals 1d8 points of damage per two caster levels (maximum 5d8) to
a good creature (or 1d6 per caster level, maximum 10d6, to a good outsider) and
causes it to be sickened for 1d4 rounds. A successful
Will save reduces damage to half and negates the sickened effect. The effects cannot
be negated by remove disease or heal, but remove curse is effective.
The spell deals only half damage to creatures who are neither evil nor good,
and they are not sickened. Such a creature can reduce the damage by half again (down
to one-quarter) with a successful Will save.
Diminished
Effects
Only good creatures within the burst’s radius are affected.
Heightened
Effects
The spell deals 1d10 points of damage per two caster levels (maximum 5d10) to each
good creature in the area (or 1d8 points of damage per caster level, maximum 10d8,
to an good outsider) and causes it to become sickened for 1d6 rounds.
UNHOLY ICE
School transmutation [cold,
evil, water]; Level cleric/oracle 5
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M (a flask
of unholy water or 5 pounds of powdered silver worth 25 gp)
Range medium (100 ft. + 10
ft./level)
Effect wall of ice or flying
ice javelins (see text)
Duration 1 minute/level,
instantaneous, or until expended (see text)
Saving Throw Reflex negates or none (see text); Spell Resistance yes
This spell creates a large mass of frozen unholy water that can be used for
one of two effects.
Unholy Ice Wall: This functions like wall of ice (hemisphere or plane).
Any creature that takes damage from unholy water takes 1 point of damage every time
it touches or attacks the ice wall with melee attacks; extended contact with the
wall (such as standing or walking on it) deals 1d6 points of damage. Even when the
ice has been broken through, a sheet of frigid unholy air remains. Any creature
that steps through it (including the one who broke through the wall) takes 1d6 points
of damage + 1 point per caster level (no save); half of this damage is cold damage,
half is damage from unholy water (creatures unharmed by unholy water do not take
the damage).
Unholy Ice Javelins: The spell creates a number of
javelins of frozen unholy water in your square equal to your caster level (maximum
15), which hurl themselves toward one or more targets that are no more than 10 feet
away from each other. You must succeed on attack rolls (one per javelin) to hit
the target with the javelin, using your base attack bonus + your Wisdom modifier.
The javelins deal 1d6 damage each, plus 1 point of cold damage and 1 point of damage
from unholy water. The javelins are destroyed by this attack.
Diminished Effects The unholy ice wall
can only form a plane 1 inch thick per two caster levels, or a maximum of 10 unholy ice javelins are created.
Heightened Effects In addition to the above effects, the unholy ice wall deals 1d6 points of cold
damage anytime it is touched our struck, or a maximum of 20 unholy ice javelins are created.
UNHOLY SWORD
School evocation [evil]; Level
antipaladin 4
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S
Range touch
Target melee weapon touched
Duration 1 round/level
Saving Throw none; Spell
Resistance no
This spell allows you to channel the powers of evil into your sword, or any
other melee weapon you choose. The weapon acts as a +5 unholy weapon (+5 enhancement
bonus on attack and damage rolls, extra 2d6 damage against good opponents). It also
emits a magic circle against good effect
(as the spell). If the magic circle ends, the sword creates a new one on
your turn as a free action. The spell is automatically canceled 1 round after the
weapon leaves your hand. You cannot have more than one unholy sword at a
time.
If this spell is cast on a magic weapon, the powers of the spell supersede
any that the weapon normally has, rendering the normal enhancement bonus and powers
of the weapon inoperative for the duration of the spell. This spell is not cumulative
with any spells that modify the weapon in any way. This spell does not work on artifacts.
A masterwork weapon's bonus to attack does not stack with this spell's enhancement
bonus to attack.
Diminished Effects The weapon does not emit a magic circle against good effect.
UNIVERSAL FORMULA
School transmutation; Level
alchemist 4
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M (quicksilver
and powdered platinum worth 100 gp)
Range personal
Target you
Duration instantaneous
As you ingest this extract, it transforms into the appropriate extract for
any formula you know of 3rd level or lower and takes effect immediately. If the
chosen formula has an expensive material component, it must be provided along with
the component for this formula. You may not create an infused extract with this
formula.
Diminished
Effects
The extract transforms into the
appropriate extract for any formula you know of 2nd level or lower.
Heightened
Effects
The extract transforms into the
appropriate extract for any formula you know of 4th level or lower.
UNWILLING SHIELD
School necromancy; Level
bard 5, inquisitor 5, sorcerer/wizard 6, witch 6
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M (ruby
dust worth 250 gp)
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2
levels)
Target one creature
Duration 1 round/level
(D)
Saving Throw Will negates; Spell Resistance yes
Like shield other, unwilling shield
creates a mystic connection between you and the target, but unlike shield other,
the target shares the wounds that you receive. In addition, the link draws upon
the target's life force to supplement your own defenses. You gain a +1 luck bonus
to AC and on saving throws. You take only half damage from all wounds and attacks
(including those dealt by special abilities) that deal hit point damage. The amount
of damage not taken by you is taken by the target. Forms of harm that do not involve
hit points, such as charm effects, ability damage, level draining, and death
effects are not affected. If you take a reduction in hit points from a lowered Constitution
score, the reduction is not split with the target because it is not hit point damage.
When the spell ends, subsequent damage is no longer divided between you and the
subject, but damage already split is not assigned to you.
If you and the target of the spell move out of range of each other, the spell
remains active, but damage is no longer shared until you are once again within range
of each other.
Diminished
Effects
You take only three quarters damage
from all wounds and attacks (including those dealt by special abilities) that
deal hit point damage. The amount of damage not taken by you is taken by the
target.
Heightened
Effects
You take only one quarter damage from all
wounds and attacks (including those dealt by special abilities) that deal hit
point damage. The amount of damage not taken by you is taken by the target.

Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2

You fill the target's heart with malice for all other creatures. The target's
attitude toward all creatures other than itself worsens by two steps.
Diminished
Effects
The spell’s duration becomes 1 round per caster level.
Heightened
Effects
The spell’s target becomes one creature
per three caster levels, no two of which can be more than 30 feet apart.
