[[第1章>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#01]]

原書表記

　Trivial spells require doing things a little differently. If they’re just low-powered-but-typical magic, then singling them out as available to fresh-faced apprentices and ungifted dabblers while excluding basic spells is tricky to justify. After all, GURPS Magic has 45 spells that lack spell prerequisites, of which 31 don’t even require Magery. Giving the least of spells properties that render them qualitatively different from these (and other) spells makes the distinction easier to defend – and adds flavor!

「[[最小限の用語>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Glossaries]]」

原書表記

The Least of Glossaries
basic spell: An IQ/H or IQ/VH spell with no spells as prerequisites. It may require other traits, most often Magery or minimum IQ. Even if nonmages can learn it, they need high or better mana to cast it.

trivial spell: An IQ/A spell with no prerequisites at all. Anybody can learn it, and anybody can cast it in normal or better mana. Synonymous with “IQ/A spell” or, collectively, the “least of spells.” In setting, people might prefer “cantrip,” “chant,” “folk ritual,” “incantation,” “invocation,” “mantra,” etc.

「[[簡単呪文の難易度>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Difficulty]]」
[[難易度>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Difficulty]]

原書表記

Difficulty
The most obvious thing to change is difficulty! Full-fledged spells – even very simple ones like Ignite Fire, Light, and Touch – are IQ/Hard or IQ/Very Hard skills. It’s logical to make the least of spells easier.

All of the spells in this collection are IQ/Average. Add Magery to IQ as usual. When using optional rules that give spells defaults (like the Wizardly Dabbler perk in GURPS Thaumatology: Magical Styles), the defaults for Average spells are one step easier than those for Hard spells (typically IQ-5 rather than IQ-6).

「[[簡単呪文の前提条件およびマナの影響>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Prerequisites_and_Mana_Level]]」

原書表記

Prerequisites . . . and Mana Level
The least of spells certainly shouldn’t require other spells as prerequisites – they’re supposed to be what people who know nothing about magic can just up and learn! But what about Magery?

In the standard magic rules, anybody can learn a spell that doesn’t require Magery, but individuals without Magery can cast that spell only in a zone of high or better mana.
Yet requiring dabblers to buy at least Magery 0 [5] largely defeats the purpose of letting the ungifted learn magic. The solution is to let anybody cast IQ/A spells, even in normal mana. For spells weaker than anything in Magic, this is unlikely to lead to the untalented invading the niche of professionals, who have far more powerful tools at their disposal.

At the same time, a gift for magic should count for something – even for the least of spells. People who have Magery 1+ do get a bonus to skill level, but this doesn’t benefit those with Magery 0. It also doesn’t fully compensate for letting anybody work magic in normal mana.

The solution is to alter the effects of mana level on IQ/A spells (only!) as follows:

High or Very High Mana: Anyone who knows IQ/A spells can cast them – and such spells are so weak that failures and critical failures are no worse than usual, even in very high mana. Someone with Magery gets the FP spent on such a spell back at the start of their next turn, as in a zone of very high mana for a harder spell.

Normal Mana: Anyone who knows IQ/A spells can cast them. All the rules for magic work normally, unless specifically excepted for IQ/A spells.

Low Mana: Only those with Magery can cast IQ/A spells, but such spells require so little magic that they’re exempt from the -5 to skill that such areas inflict on harder spells.
Critical failures with IQ/A spells always count as ordinary failures.

No Mana: No one can use magic – not even IQ/A spells.

Thus, the talented have a major edge over the untalented with trivial spells: In regions of higher-than-normal mana, they can work such magic all day with almost no ill effects. In low mana, they regain their monopoly on magic – and gain something to fall back on when their harder spells aren’t working well.

「[[簡単呪文の魔化項目>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Items]]」
[[魔化項目>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Items]]

原書表記

Items
The spells in this collection are so low-powered that it’s hard to imagine any serious enchanter spending time on them. Still, the GM may allow people who want items that cast such spells to have them. In place of individual “Item” entries, these generic rules apply in all cases:

Creation: Energy cost to create is always 25. Use the standard enchanting rules; see Magic, pp. 16-18. Notably, the creator rolls against the lower of Enchant or the specific spell, and requires effective skill 15 or better. Thus, even if a nonmage can cast the spell, it takes someone with Enchant – and thus Magery 2+ – to create the associated item.

Use: An item enchanted with an IQ/A spell lets any wielder cast that spell in the usual time, at the usual energy cost; see Magic,p. 19. There are no known variants (e.g., items that produce “always on” effects). Such items respond to mana normally, not according to the special rules for IQ/A spells – enchantment is inherently higher-powered!

Purchase: These are almost always Quick and Dirty items that cost the suggested $1 per energy point: $25. The GM may want to assume that they also call for generic “magical ingredients” with a price on a par with an object suitable for a one-point Powerstone ($50), for a final cost of $75. Nothing prevents PCs from avoiding spending points on IQ/A spells by buying dozens of cheap items – but these can be lost or stolen, won’t function in low mana, don’t benefit from Magery, and enjoy no energy cost or casting time reduction for high skill.

「[[その他すべて>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Everything_Else]]」

原書表記

In all other respects, IQ/A spells obey the standard magic rules. Everything in Casting Spells (pp. B235-238) and Different Kinds of Magic (pp. B239-242) applies to them. For instance, they require magic rituals, and get casting time and energy cost reductions for high skill; they count as spells “on” while active, giving -1 apiece to cast further spells; maintenance works normally; and Regular spells are cast at -1 per yard to the subject, and cost (1 + SM) times as much energy on subjects larger than SM 0.

A rule the GM might want to change for IQ/A spells is Magery and Effect (p. B237). If high Magery makes it possible to use IQ/A spells with variable energy cost to achieve impressive effects, such spells could outshine harder spells in some circumstances. Of course, the GM might regard that as feature, as it would give powerful mages a reason to learn these spells! This collection calls out some specific examples as food for thought.

「[[簡単呪文を前提条件に用いる>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#As_Prerequisites]]」

原書表記

As Prerequisites?
It’s tempting -- even logical -- to shoehorn these trivial spells into the game as prerequisites for the most basic spells in Magic. The recommended way to do so is to let any IQ/A spell in a college count as the prerequisite for any harder spell in the same college that otherwise has no spell prerequisites. (For added detail, make the lesser spells prerequisites for the greater spells they resemble most.)

Doing so makes wizards a bit more expensive to play. In the worst (if unlikely) case of someone who wants to study all 24 colleges, the maximum extra cost is 24 points. Whether that’s good or bad is a matter of opinion. Gamers who find casters too capable relative to other character types might find this option worth exploring.

Not doing so when using IQ/A spells in the campaign may seem illogical -- why was such magic researched, if not as a path to something more powerful? Yet magic is often convoluted! Perhaps mages developed these spells for nonmages by starting with more advanced magic and “subtracting out” the parts that required Magery.

The GM could even rule that any of a college’s basic spells can be cast in a way that emulates any of the trivial spells -- or the closest such spell -- in the same college. Wizards can omit part of the ritual to conjure a lesser effect. If so, mages are unlikely to learn IQ/A spells separately.

Such things are matters of taste. They’re left to the GM, who should inform the players of their decisions before anyone creates a character.

「[[基本に戻る>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Back_to_Basics]]」

原書表記

Back to Basics
If the GM introduces The Least of Spells after the campaign is in full swing, it’s unfair to require those playing wizards to buy prerequisites they didn’t previously need. Yet simply giving them free points in these things is unfair to those playing non-casters. It’s fairest to assume that mages created IQ/A spells for nonmages, and let everybody (mage or not) spend earned points on them – although ruling that basic spells can emulate trivial ones is probably fine, as it won’t give wizards too big a boost.

As for how to learn these spells in play, teachers would likely be everywhere. Even if wizards jealously guard harder spells, they’ll have little luck monopolizing something anybody can learn. Halve the cost of training and spellbooks to reflect this. When using the rules for manuals in GURPS Dungeon Fantasy 4: Sages, change the +3 CF (quadruple base cost) for magic to the +1 CF (double base cost) for ordinary IQ-based skills without defaults.

Stifle (A)
　Blocking; Resisted by subject spell
　Stops not an attack, but a belch, cough, fart, sneeze, etc. that might embarrass or give away the caster. Resists Belch, Spasm, and other spells intended to cause such outcomes. Success (victory) suppresses the emanation. Would have to be cast every second against an ongoing irritation; e.g., hiccups or a coughing fit. Cannot block more serious effects – choking, retching, seizures, etc. – be they natural or magical.

Drama (A)
Regular
　Caster counterfeits one strong emotion: anger, despair, fear, hate, joy, love, etc. Like the Acting skill (p. B174), but useless for lies, mimicry, and impersonation. On the other hand, skills like Body Language and Detect Lies cannot penetrate Drama – that requires a successful Aura or Sense Emotion spell (which works automatically, as Drama is too feeble to resist!).
　Also a Mind Control spell.

Sorcerous Signal (A)
Regular
Subject ignores the -3 for lack of Cultural Familiarity (p. B23) for one use of Gesture (p. B198). If Gesture succeeds, any IQ 6+ being that can perceive the gesture grasps its meaning. Doesn’t grant Gesture skill (defaults to IQ-4), much less a true sign language (p. B25).
Duration: Until subject makes a Gesture roll, unless canceled sooner.

Badger Paws (A)
Regular
　Subject can dig sand or ordinary soil barehanded as if equipped with a metal shovel; see Digging (p. B350). Relative to bare hands, quadruples speed – but also amplifies the FP cost, if the caster isn’t skilled enough to reduce the spell’s cost. Doesn’t include the benefits of a pick (rendering it useless for hard soil, clay, or rock), and confers no engineering ability.
Duration: 1 hour.
Cost: 2. Same cost to maintain.

Pebble (A)
Missile
　Shoots a tiny stone from one hand. This has Acc 1, 1/2D n/a, and Max 40, and does no damage, even to fragile targets.
It’s roughly as useful as picking up and throwing a pebble.
Uses Innate Attack (Projectile) to hit, and cast most often to practice that skill – and by apprentices trying to get someone’s attention.

Spotless Hands (A)
Regular
Deceptively named spell doesn’t wash hands but repels soil. Subject can plant seeds, work clay, or dig barehanded or with Badger Paws (above) without getting filthy hands. Doesn’t repel anything but “earth,” provide protection better than ordinary DR 0 work gloves, or confer gardening, artistic, or digging ability. Prized by apprentices who tend herb gardens – or exhume corpses.

Emergency Staff (A)
Special
　Caster briefly imbues an object that could accept the Staff spell (Magic, p. 70) with similar magic. Works only on an item in hand. Ends if the caster loses contact with the subject.
A draining, desperate measure – but sometimes better than nothing. Works even for nonmages, so for them it’s definitely better than nothing!
Duration: 1 second.
Cost: 1. Same cost to maintain. Never reduced by high skill for nonmages!

Magician’s Minion (A)
Regular
　Subject can come within 10 yards of a Quick and Dirty enchantment process without inflicting -1 on the caster’s skill (Magic, p. 17). Doesn’t conceal subject from magic, or prevent an assistant from giving -1. Just keeps guards and servants from compromising the casting.
Duration: 1 hour.

原書表記

Sorcerer’s Stand-In (A)
Regular
　Subject can hold an assistant’s – but never the caster’s! – place in a Slow and Sure enchantment (Magic,p. 18). An assistant’s absence normally pauses a work in progress; this lets it continue. The stand-in contributes no mage-days to the effort, while the person replaced cannot work on another enchantment – that counts as “loss of a mage,” ending the original project.
　For this spell to work, the subject must be touching the assistant they’ll be replacing – though anybody can cast it.
Must be recast before each day of work.
Duration: 1 day.
Cost: 8. Cannot be maintained.

Missile
　Hurls a hot spark from one hand. This has Acc 0, 1/2D n/a, Max 10. Use Innate Attack (Projectile) to hit. Affects target just like one second of a one-point Ignite Fire spell. Can ignite Super-Flammable or Highly Flammable targets (p. B433), but inflicts no damage.

原書表記

Eat Crow (A)
Regular
　Deadens a willing subject’s taste buds, preventing nausea or retching (pp. B428-429) triggered by tastes.
Anything consumed while Eat Crow is active leaves no aftertaste. Doesn’t prevent poisoning, being sickened by spoiled food, choking on comestibles, or nausea or retching not caused by taste. Valuable to terrible cooks and anyone who eats actual crow (or rat, buzzard, etc.).
　Also a Body Control spell.
Duration: 1 minute.

Find Ingredient (A)
Information
　Must be cast in a space devoted to food prep or storage: kitchen, pantry, etc. A place must be used this way daily for at least a year to acquire suitable magical “vibes.”
　Caster may specify one ingredient before casting. If present, the spell makes it stand out in their vision. Useful to assistants to quirky chefs – and chefs with lackadaisical assistants.
　Casters with Alchemy can use this spell to find reagents in a dedicated lab.

原書表記

Glutton’s Cheat (A)
Regular
　Willing subject can eat like a slob yet not soil their face, hands, or clothing. Deflects edible matter toward the mouth – not foreign matter away from the body – making it of no value against attacks. As useful as a bib, a napkin, and better manners.
Duration: 1 minute.

原書表記

Easy Rider (A)
Regular
　Makes a willing subject easier to transport with all forms of teleportation, time travel, dimension shifts, etc. – friendly or hostile! Rolls to use such capabilities on them are at +1.
Wizards can cast this on themselves, but the -1 for a spell “on” negates the bonus for their own spells.
　Also a Meta-Spell.
Duration: 1 minute.
Cost: 2. Same cost to maintain.

原書表記

Reorient (A)
Blocking
　Cast in response to teleportation, or time or dimension travel – not an attack – instead of a Body Sense roll upon arrival (choose one or the other). Success and failure work as for Body Sense. Not subject to Body Sense modifiers, but apply -5 unless the trip was willing (e.g., stepping through a known gate).
　Valuable mostly to people for whom an IQ/A skill is a better bet than Body Sense (DX/H). Of course, it costs FP.
　Also a Movement spell.
Cost: 1.

Aid (A)
Regular
　Caster can attempt the tasks under First Aid (p. B424) at no penalty for a lack of equipment. Doesn’t confer First Aid skill (defaults to IQ-4). Typically used for bandaging – but those who can maintain it for free (skill 15+) might treat shock.

Aide (A)
Regular
　Not to be confused with Aid (above). Caster can better support other magical healers. When assisting ceremonial (p. B238) Healing spells, they can always contribute at least 3 energy, regardless of their abilities – Magery, spells, etc.
　Such a “helper spell” might exist for every college (GM’s option), but it suits Healing best.
Duration: 1 minute. Must be maintained throughout the
entire ceremony to provide any benefit.

　Also a Protection and Warning spell.
Duration: 1 hour.
Cost: 2 to cast. 1 to maintain. If caster becomes intoxicated, apply resulting IQ penalty to basic skill level before figuring cost reduction!

Duration: 1 hour.
Cost: 2 to cast. 1 to maintain.
Time to cast: 7 seconds.

Disbelieve (A)
Regular or Blocking
　Cast before the caster tries to “disbelieve” Simple Illusion or Illusion Shell. Bonus to the Will roll on the following turn equals energy in the spell: +1 to +5.

　Also a Mind Control spell.
Duration: 1 second (long enough to try to disbelieve).
Cost: 1 to 5. Cannot be maintained.

原書表記

Image (A)
Area
　Projects a stationary, unchanging, two-dimensional image onto a surface, like light through a photographic slide. Quality depends on Artist (Illusion) skill. Disbelief is automatic but won’t dispel it; any touch, attack, or spell will dispel it.

A “favorite” at wizardly meetings!

Shadowplay (A)
Area
　Projects moving, changing, two-dimensional shadows – like silhouettes of hands or paper cutouts in bright light – that are otherwise subject to the notes and rules for Image (above).
Being shadows, these lack color and fine detail. Used mostly for entertainment.
　Also a Light and Darkness spell.
Duration: 1 minute.
Base cost: 1. Half that to maintain.

原書表記

Keyfinder (A)
Regular
　Caster recalls where they put an item they possess but can’t find (never facts, events, etc.). This offers a way to improve the IQ roll the GM might give anybody to recall such things, and is of special value to those with Absent-Mindedness (p. B122),
who normally roll at IQ-2.
　Also a Mind Control spell.
Duration: Instantaneous. Recollection remains until object
is misplaced again.

Know Thyself (A)
Regular
　Organizes subject’s thoughts, giving +1 to Public Speaking or Teaching for the sole purpose of truthfully presenting their knowledge. Listeners receive +1 to Detect Lies or Interrogation to confirm subject isn’t lying. Provides neither expertise nor the ability to lie. Popular among apprentices with untrusting masters – and masters with abysmal pedagogical skills.
　Also a Mind Control spell.
Duration: 1 minute.
Cost: 2 to cast. 1 to maintain.

原書表記

Sweet Oblivion (A)
Regular
　Caster (only!) forgets a single fact (never a language, skill, spell, etc.) – permanently. Useful for unseeing or unlearning something awful, and for foiling mind-readers. Too weak to stop serious magical interrogators; successfully casting Recall, Remove Curse, Restore Memory, or Permanent Forgetfulness (in reverse) automatically ends its effects.
　Also a Mind Control spell.
Duration: Permanent.
Cost: 3. One try per memory.
Time to cast: 10 seconds.

原書表記

Phosphorescence (A)
Area
Everything in the area briefly emits soft light. This gives everyone with a line of sight to the area a Vision roll without darkness penalties (all other Vision modifiers remain).
Success reveals a snapshot of what’s in the area. While this won’t aid attacks on moving targets, it will reveal whether people or objects are present. Too feeble to blind anyone!
Duration: Instantaneous.
Base cost: 2. Cannot be maintained.
Time to cast: 2 seconds.

原書表記

Twinkle (A)
Regular
Produces a really tiny light, like a star in the night sky – or at most a firefly. Whatever penalty Vision rolls would be at with only the Light spell, Twinkle is -2 worse. Stays still unless the caster concentrates on moving it; then it can travel at Move 1.
Duration: 1 minute.
Cost: 1. Same cost to maintain.

Tack (A)
Regular
Pins a thin, lightweight sheet with DR 0 (e.g., paper) to a surface with at most DR 1 per inch of thickness (like wallboard). Neither sheet nor surface can be living. Prevents the sheet from falling off – not from being removed. Often found pinning up posters at wizards’ academies (“Go, Warlocks!”).
Duration: Instantaneous. Sheet stays tacked until pulled down.
Cost: 1 per ounce of sheet weight (minimum 1). Cannot be maintained.

《[[工芸補助]]》

原書表記

Wizardly Workshop (A)
Regular
Reduces the penalty suffered by a subject whose equipment modifiers (p. B345) with one craft or repair skill – specified at casting – are -6 or worse. Maximum improvement is to -5. Subjects with -5 or better gain no benefit.
The GM decides what skills to permit. Armoury, Carpentry, Electrician, Electronics Repair, Machinist, Masonry, and Mechanic are reasonable. Alchemy, Bioengineering, Engineer, etc. probably aren’t.
Also a Movement spell and a Technological spell.
Duration: 1 minute. Must be maintained throughout an entire task to provide any benefit.
Cost: 2 per -1 to skill eliminated (maximum 10 energy).

原書表記

Thaumatomancy (A)
Information
Boldly ask magic to explain itself! A casting answers one question the Thaumatology skill (p. B225) could answer about existing magic. Cannot be used for original research into new magic. Penalties that would affect the skill roll apply to the spell.
While easier than Thaumatology, Thaumatomancy is draining. Being an Information spell, even failures cost full energy!
In settings where consulting otherworldly forces (spirits, gods, the dead, etc.) replaces scholarly speculation – especially in worlds too primitive to have science or institutes of learning – variants of this spell might replace other IQ/H or IQ/VH knowledge skills, and possibly occult Hidden Lore specialties.
For instance, “Word of God,” begging the gods for revelations about themselves, may replace Theology.
Also a Knowledge spell.
Cost: 10. One try per question.
Time to cast: 1 hour.

《[[用具認可]]》

• 呪文クラス：通常呪文
• 呪文系統：　呪文操作系呪文

• 魔化：「簡単呪文の魔化項目」参照。

原書表記

Use Item (A)
Regular
Caster can temporarily use “Usable only by mages” magic items – as if with Magery 0, where relevant. The moment Use Item lapses, all magical effects such artifacts caused end, too: ongoing spells vanish regardless of duration, unused Melee and Missile spells dissipate harmlessly, etc. Permanent changes (e.g., injury inflicted or healed) remain.
This spell is for nonmages, and worthless to mages. Be warned: Objects that harm nonmages do so the instant Use Item ends!
Duration: 1 second. Must be maintained throughout the entire time required to activate the item – very draining for scrolls!
Cost: 2. Same cost to maintain.

原書表記

Adjuration (A)
Regular
Identical to the Oath spell – but works only on the caster! People often swear oaths before gods, on their ancestors’ graves, etc. In settings where the otherworldly regularly intervenes in the worldly, there may be a ritual to make this binding. This is a spell (often one that requires sanctity), but one anybody can learn.
Duration: Permanent.
Cost: 4.
Time to cast: 1 minute.

《[[疑似催眠]]》

原書表記

Hypnotize (A)
Regular; Special Resistance
Works like the Hypnotism skill (p. B201), but trades being easier (IQ/A rather than IQ/H) against an energy cost and more limited duration: trance, sleep, suggestions, and all other effect end when the spell does. Otherwise, use the rules for the skill as written.
Duration: 1 minute.
Cost: 2 to cast. Same cost to maintain.
Time to cast: 5 seconds.

《[[根気作業]]》

Patience (A)
Regular
　Subject, who must be willing, gains the effects of Attentive (p. B163) with respect to one specific, lengthy task, chosen at the time of casting: +1 to rolls for that activity, -3 to notice anything else. A common study aid at wizardly academies!
Duration: 1 hour. Must be maintained throughout the entire task to provide any benefit.
Cost: 2 to cast. 1 to maintain.

原書表記

Startle (A)
Regular; Resisted by Will
Subject who fails to resist is spooked. Works only in calm settings, never noisy social situations, chases, combat, etc.
Has no fixed game effects – it’s the magical equivalent of shouting “Boo!”, and has whatever outcome amuses the GM (e.g., screaming “Eek!” or spilling a drink).
Duration: Instantaneous.
Cost: 1. Cannot be maintained.

《[[自制弱化]]》

• 呪文クラス：通常呪文/抵抗呪文_特殊
• 呪文系統：　精神操作系呪文

• 前提条件数：なし
• 魔化：「簡単呪文の魔化項目」参照。

原書表記

Volatility (A)
Regular; Special Resistance
Subject resists using Will plus the energy in the spell (Will+1 to Will+3). Failure to resist confers an equal-sized penalty (-1 to -3) to their next self-control roll (pp. B120-121).
If the spell ends before such a roll is required – or the subject has no applicable disadvantages – it’s wasted.
Duration: 1 minute or until a self-control roll is attempted, whichever comes first.
Cost: 1 to 3 to cast. Same cost to maintain – but a self-control roll always ends the spell.

原書表記

Cushion (A)
Blocking
　Breaks a fall. Cast immediately before impact, not preemptively like Slow Fall. Roll falling damage normally, accounting for height, landing, Acrobatics, etc. Energy cost equals the damage rolled; serious falls can result in injury from reaching negative FP. Success means this is the only effect. Failure, that the caster pays full energy and takes falling damage anyway – ouch!
Cost: Equal to falling damage.

《[[疾走]]》

• 呪文クラス：通常呪文

Flee (A)
Regular
　Increases subject’s Move in situations where Enhanced Move (p. B52) or Sprinting (p. B354) would apply. Despite its name, Flee can be used to charge into combat. Not cumulative with Haste – use only the highest applicable bonus.
Duration: 1 minute.
Cost: 2 per +1 to Move (maximum +3 Move). Half that to maintain.

《[[開扉]]》

原書表記

Open Door (A)
Regular or Blocking
　Causes the subject door – which must be free to swing and not in contact with another being – to open on its own, as if the caster had pushed it one-handed. Useless on portals the caster couldn’t budge: too heavy, stuck, locked, etc.
　Can be cast on the run, or to prevent a door from slamming in the caster’s face. Treat either as a Blocking spell; thus, high skill doesn’t reduce energy cost.
Duration: Instantaneous – doesn’t hold the door open!
Cost: 1. Cannot be maintained.

原書表記

Sink (A)
Regular
Subject, who must be willing, temporarily gains Cannot Float (p. B165). Can be cast on an inanimate object, but if that’s keeping anyone afloat, everyone affected must be willing.
Casters often cast Sink on themselves to dive and cancel it to resurface, which is as effective as diving with a weight and then letting it go.
Useful when diving in very salty water!
Also a Water spell.
Duration: 1 minute.
Cost: 3. 1 to maintain.
Time to cast: 3 seconds.

《[[派手な死]]》

原書表記

Dramatic Departure (A)
Special
Caster may roll for this spell immediately after dying in any but the most thorough and instantaneous of ways (that’s already dramatic!). Success gives impressive visuals: exploding head, disintegrating flesh, anything the caster likes. These effects cause no harm to others or the environment, beyond a mess.
Duration: Very permanent – caster can’t be resurrected by anything that requires an intact body or brain!

原書表記

Invoke (A)
Special
Lets caster utter the name of a demon, dead person, or similar entity in a way that’s guaranteed to be heard in Hell, on the Other Side, etc. Rarely summons anything straight away, but repeated casting may ensure that Something includes the caster in future plans (GM’s delight).
Arguably the most profoundly unwise trivial spell. Also a Gate spell.
Duration: Instantaneous, but many entities have long memories.
Cost: 1. Cannot be maintained.

原書表記

Reverie of Ruin (A)
Information
Caster meditates on their death and receives a premonition like Death Vision (Magic, p. 149), but worse: Roll 3d on the Fright Check Table (p. B360) for effects. After stun or incapacitation ends, the GM might reveal a deadly hazard or lethally bad choice (“being stunned when danger
strikes” counts).
Cost: 1.
Time to cast: (20 - skill) seconds, minimum 1 second. This is instead of the usual reduction for high skill.

原書表記

Ritual of Reaping (A)
Regular
　Subject can easily harvest food plants barehanded, passing stalks between fingers, effortlessly pulling roots, shaking trees, etc. without damaging the produce or gathering inedible parts.
The GM determines game effects. Having collection take 20% less time – or permitting an extra foraging roll (p. B427) per hour – seems reasonable. Worthless if there’s nothing suitable or ready to harvest!
　Also a Food spell.
Duration: 1 hour.

原書表記

Spell of Sowing (A)
Regular
Subject can plant seeds simply by tossing them in the air as they walk. These disperse perfectly and sink to the correct depth. Whether they germinate and grow depends on soil quality, sunlight, rainfall, etc., as usual. The GM sets the practical effects; a savings of 20% time (or amount of seed needed) is a fair minimum.
Duration: 1 hour.

原書表記

Anticipate (A)
Regular
Subject is less vulnerable to tricky attacks: The total penalty to defend against attacks from the side, Deceptive Attacks, Dual-Weapon Attacks, and flails, and from Feints, is -1 less severe. No benefit if none of those situations apply! Never gives a bonus.
The GM might let mages eliminate a penalty up to their Magery level, at 2 energy per -1 removed.

原書表記

Insect Repellent (A)
Regular
Subject becomes unattractive to biting flies, mosquitoes, and similar natural vermin. As effective as repellent substances known at the caster’s TL, meaning it mostly saves a little money – though it can be a lifesaver to lost or shipwrecked explorers! No effect on unnatural pests.
Also an Animal spell.

Regular
Produces a brief, low-intensity, high-pitched sound similar to a creaky floorboard, hinge in need of oil, mouse, etc. Use the “leaves rustling” line on the Hearing Distance Table (p. B358). Mainly useful for irritating people, but might distract someone in an unusually quiet environment (GM’s decision).

Throw Voice (A)
Regular
Subject can do what ventriloquism is reputed to do (but cannot!): Make their voice literally emerge from a distant point. This requires a Ventriloquism (p. B228) roll, at -1 per yard of distance; a subject without that skill uses IQ-6 (normally, Ventriloquism has no default), still at -1 per yard. Popular with bards and other entertainers!
Also a Body Control spell.

Regular
One of the caster’s fingers becomes magnetic. Effective ST 1 lets it attract and pick up 0.2 lb. of objects containing iron, nickel, or cobalt, as long as they’re within one inch. Works through most materials, though not metals. Mainly useful for quickly collecting many tiny objects, like spilled tacks – but clever casters will cook up other uses.

Remote Start/TL (A)
Regular
Causes subject machine to switch on or off, if this requires nothing more complicated than pushing, pulling, or turning a control. Any key must be in place (Remote Start can’t bypass security measures), and the caster must know how to operate the device and make any skill roll required for startup or shutdown. Doesn’t grant control – just “hands free” activation or deactivation.

Willing subject’s hands absorb liquids, like towels or sponges. Wringing hands squeezes out the liquid. Each cycle takes three seconds and removes two fluid ounces (just over 0.1 lb. if water).

Sweat (A)
Regular
Caster’s body oozes enough water to neutralize cyclic contact effects – extinguishing ordinary flame if on fire, flushing away acid or poison, etc. – preventing further damage. Water cannot be usefully collected (e.g., to drink). Clothing or armor that’s easily ruined or rusted by moisture must roll as in Slime, Sand, and Equipment Failure (p. B485).

Cloud (A)
Regular; Resisted by Will
　Don’t confuse this with Clouds (Magic, p. 194)! A miniature cloud coalesces a few inches above the subject and follows them around. This doesn’t do anything (rain, shoot lightning, etc.), but it’s a useful way to mark someone: +1 to Vision rolls to notice them and -1 to their Stealth. It’s also annoying.

「[[簡単呪文の新規作成>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Other_Tricks]]」

原書表記

Other Tricks
The GM may add more IQ/A spells, or invite players to propose them. While there’s no design system, new creations should respect the guidelines the spells in this collection establish.

Most of these spells weaken an existing basic spell or seriously weaken something more advanced. The longer the model spell’s prerequisite chain, the weaker the IQ/A spells it inspires.
Ways to weaken a spell include:

• Reduced duration (seconds instead of minutes, or something like Diver’s Blessing, p. 6), range (short for Missile spells like Jolt, p. 17, and “jets” like Mighty Breath, p. 6 – or even touch only), offensive power (compare Belch, p. 7, to Spasm), or utility (compare Badger Paws, p. 8, to Shape Earth).

• Easier resistance; e.g., Volatility (p. 14).

• Limited subjects – maybe people with/without specific traits (e.g., Blend In, p. 7), willing subjects (like Stinkguard, p. 6), or just the caster (as Keyfinder, p. 11).

• Highly conditional usage; e.g., Find Ingredient (p. 9). See Dramatic Departure (p. 14) for an extreme case!

• No ability to withstand harder spells that would logically oppose it; e.g., Drama (p. 7) and Sweet Oblivion (p. 11).

　This needn’t come with reductions in energy cost, casting time, or other bother, unless the effects are cosmetic or silly. Nonmages must work harder for fewer benefits! Indeed, a spell’s energy cost might be its weakness – it could drain energy quickly (e.g., Emergency Staff, p. 8, and Use Item, pp. 12-13), or have an unpredictable cost (like Cushion, p. 14).

Not every IQ/A spell needs to be modeled on existing magic.
Some other ideas:

• Blocking spells that block things less serious than attacks; e.g., Stifle (p. 7).

• Spells that curse the caster with effects similar to disadvantages or baneful spells; e.g., Reverie of Ruin (p. 15). Their uses are left to clever players to find!

• Spells that ape mundane skills; e.g., Reorient (p. 10) and Thaumatomancy (p. 12). These can be easier than the skills – and shift those skills from other attributes to IQ – because they cost energy and require mana. But they might cover only some uses of the skills, or have inconveniently high costs or casting times.

• Spells that temporarily inflict quirks; e.g., Sink (p. 14). If hostile, these should be Resisted or require a willing subject. For ideas, see GURPS Power-Ups 6: Quirks.

• Spells that temporarily grant perks or cheap (at most 5-point) advantages; e.g., Bender Defender (p. 10). For inspiration, see GURPS Power-Ups 2: Perks.

The guidelines for adapting existing spells still apply here – notably, weak effects, limited scope, and little resistance to serious counter-magic.

「[[新信者と俗人>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Novices_and_Laypeople]]」

原書表記

Novices and Laypeople
　Any of these spells could be “holy.” The only absolutely essential changes are to read “mana” as “sanctity” for sacred spells, and to use Power Investiture (not Magery) to assess IQ bonuses and higher levels of effect. Yet in most settings, wizards can learn more spells than clerics, raising the question of which ones the gods grant.

　Adjuration generally fits. Ack might, if deities communicate directly with the faithful. Invoke is probably either
widespread or strictly forbidden, depending on whether gods like to hear their names more than they worry about mortals calling demons!

　Traditional fantasy RPG clerics nourish, cure, and protect, suggesting Food, Healing, and Protection and Warning spells. But not everything in those colleges! Holiness is often associated with moderation or asceticism, rendering spells like Bender Defender and Glutton’s Cheat unsuitable, and many faiths take a dim view of Birth Control.
Conversely, Ritual of Reaping, Spell of Sowing, and protective magic that falls outside the three key colleges (like Cushion) do fit.

　In faiths with organized worship, serious devotees may be expected to learn Aide for healing ceremonies, Patience to sit through long services, and Stifle to preserve ritual decorum. Lay clergy might use Image to project holy icons, perfumed versions of Puff to replace incense, and Tack to post religious tracts. Sermons would benefit from Know Thyself.

　Other spells suit deities whose “divine spheres” mirror the magical colleges to which the magic belongs: Fire spells for fire gods, Necromantic spells for death gods, etc.
Creative thinking may be needed; e.g., Diver’s Blessing isn’t a Water spell but is thematic for sea gods, while Badger Paws, Spotless Hands, and Stinkguard aren’t Necromantic but suit death cultists who regularly inhume and exhume corpses.

　Spells related to mana and wizardly pursuits don’t feel like gifts that deities other than gods of magic would grant. Emergency Staff, Magician’s Minion, Sorcerer’s Stand-In, Thaumatomancy, and Use Item fall into this category.

　Then there are silly or juvenile spells. Examples are things like Belch, Cloud, Squeak, and even Dramatic Departure. These are undignified for deities other than tricksters.

　But in a society where everybody prays, nothing is completely implausible. If minor prayers work for anyone, while wizards always need mana, all of these IQ/A spells might be possible as holy but not wizardly magic.

　Lastly, for the druidic magic in GURPS Dungeon Fantasy, it’s best to stick to Animal, Earth, Plant, and Weather spells, plus fitting Air and Water spells (GM’s decision). Rather than adapt Chapter 1’s rules for mana to Nature’s Strength, assume that anyone can cast IQ/A druidic spells, but that users without Power Investiture (Druidic) halve bonuses and round down (e.g., +3 becomes +1) but suffer full penalties, while those with that advantage halve penalties and drop fractions (-3 becomes -1) but enjoy full bonuses.

「[[第3章：最大限に最小化>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#03]]」
[[第3章>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#03]]

原書表記

Making the Most of the Leasy
　In high-powered fantasy (like GURPS Dungeon Fantasy) and settings where magic is common and society-changing, most career spellcasters are individuals with Magery, Power Investiture, or similar who’ve had a chance to study IQ/Hard and IQ/Very Hard spells. Yet that’s a loaded statement! The reality depends on the GM’s world-building decisions.

If the only magic available is low-powered, it can be widespread without changing society much. The existence of forces that violate physical laws even a little would shake science to its core, but the average person wouldn’t notice or care – how many people today worry about, never mind grasp, quantum mechanics, relativity, thermodynamics, etc.? More important to ordinary people, an IQ/Average spell is as time-consuming to learn as a Professional Skill yet useful for a single, trivial purpose. If that one thing is comparable to cheap consumer technology in capability, and the spell is fatiguing, magic is unlikely to replace tech, much less revolutionize anything.

In worlds where high-powered heroes have epic adventures, magic can be powerful and transformative without being commonplace. It might be controlled by a few NPCs who hoard it jealously as they pursue megalomaniac goals such as immortality, world conquest, and godhood. Everyone else gets “scraps.” This approach is common in pulp swordand-sorcery tales.

Finally, magic being powerful and widely taught to anyone with the means to learn it doesn’t guarantee widespread Magery – in game terms, Magery may cost extra or call for an Unusual Background. Training in IQ/H and IQ/VH spells might be as demanding as any other profession that requires multiple Hard and Very Hard skills, like becoming a brain surgeon or an astronaut, and require social advantages or a different Unusual Background. Indeed, all of these things could be true!

All of the above possibilities leave room for career casters who specialize in trivial spells. In weak-magic backgrounds, these are individuals with enough of a knack for IQ/A spells to learn many of them quickly at skill levels where they aren’t fatiguing to cast. In strong-magic settings where only evil NPCs are powerful wizards, “hedge magician” is likewise its own career – and to survive epic adventures alongside mightythewed warriors and legendary rogues, such a hero needs to be capable. And in worlds where magic is both strong and available, but the gifts and/or privilege needed to exploit it are uncommon, there are sure to be “supporting professions,” just as surgeons and astronauts rely on armies of technicians.

What abilities do these people have?

「[[小魔法使いへの特徴>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Advantages_for_Minor_Magicians]]」

原書表記

Advantages for Minor Magicians
Those who can have gifts like Magery or Power Investiture will want them, as these aid IQ/A spells just as they benefit harder ones. Such traits may be rare in the setting, however -- expensive, associated with Unusual Backgrounds, even off-limits to PCs. Or perhaps they’re common enough but not useful, because spells that absolutely require them are unavailable and “caster only” items (or all magic items) are rare.

Beyond all that, the way other advantages work can explain -- even empower -- casters who specialize in trivial spells.

「[[言語>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Languages]]」

原書表記

Languages
Verbal castings might require an obscure magical tongue. If so, casters who must speak (skill 14 or less) – or who choose to speak, to avoid gestures (skill 15-19) – cast at -3 if their spoken comprehension is merely Broken (1 point), -1 if Accented (2 points). In addition, nobody can learn magic without being able to read this language; the GM may let Broken or Accented written comprehension suffice for new characters, but assess -3 or -1 to rolls to learn spells later on (see GURPS Social Engineering: Back to School). It would also be fair to make complete Native comprehension a prerequisite for learning spells.

That definitely fits IQ/H and IQ/VH spells! But it might not be true for IQ/A spells, if they have vulgarized versions in workaday languages. Such a ruling makes it cheaper to play hedge magicians than “real wizards.” If both can be PCs, this gives the former a small head start, making the role more attractive.

「[[魔法系特典>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Magic_Perks]]」

原書表記

Magic Perks see GURPS Thaumatology: Magical Styles, pp. 20-33

Technically, only mages can have Magic Perks. The real curb on these perks is points in spells, though. Nothing breaks if the GM lets trivial spells count – if, with or without Magery, casters can add points in IQ/A spells to total points in spells and buy one Magic Perk per full 20 points.

If hedge magicians aren’t guild- or academy-taught, it would be fair to rule that they don’t pursue magical styles, meaning they cannot learn the Magical School Familiarity perk or buy one extra Magic Perk from a style per 10 points in its spells. Then again, “hedge magic” could be a formally certified profession, in which case the GM might deem it a “style” for this purpose. Either way, the perk list should be shorter for non-mages.

Particularly suitable Magic Perks are those that give bonuses or negate penalties to cast, offsetting the absence of Magery (e.g., Afflicted Casting, Far-Casting, Reduced Footprint, and Spell Bond); Attribute Substitution, to base spells on something besides IQ (good for non-geniuses who want a few “everyman” spells); Convenience Casting and Mundane Magic (for the many trivial spells that cover everyday tasks); Intuitive Cantrip (which essentially is a trivial spell!); and Wizardly Dabbler (IQ/A spells default to IQ-5).

The GM might permit Limited Energy Reserve (Trivial Magic). This can be spent only on IQ/A spells – as if “trivial spells” were a style.

The GM shouldn’t allow perks pertaining to enchantments (like Better Magic Items, Improvised Items, Staff Attunement, and Staff Bond) or guilds (notably Academic or Guild Rank), nor those that make sense only alongside Magery (Magical Weapon Bond, Secret Mage, Thaumatological Doublespeak, etc.) or a magical style (e.g., Improvised Magic, Lapsed Practitioner, Magical Style Adaptation, Secret Spell, and Shortcut to Power).

「[[魔法の耐性>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Magic_Resistance]]」

原書表記

Magic Resistance
see p. B67

Since trivial spells don’t require Magery, someone who knows them can have Magic Resistance. To keep things balanced, subtract its level from rolls to cast such spells – just as with the Magic Resistance spell (GURPS Magic, p. 123) – unless it has Improved, +150%. This still makes a nice edge for hedge magicians, as they can work simple magic while being magic-resistant for cheap, whereas someone who wants to cast harder spells needs Magery and can’t have Magic Resistance unless it’s Improved.

Be aware that each level of unimproved Magic Resistance effectively negates a level of Hedge Magician (below) for casting. Hedge Magician 1 [5] and Magic Resistance 1 (Improved, +150%) [5] costs less than Hedge Magician 2 [10] and Magic Resistance 1 [2], and gives the same net bonus to spells and resistance to magic. What the latter gives for the extra points is faster learning and a better roll to notice magic – which might be worth it!

「[[階級>GURPS Magic: The Least of Spells#Rank]]」

原書表記

Rank
see pp. B29-30

In some worlds, only those with high Rank in a power structure that controls access to magical secrets might receive permission to study “advanced” magic. Two obvious approaches are:

Rank restricts spell difficulty. Anybody inside or outside the Rank system has access to IQ/A spells – but the privilege of studying IQ/H spells is reserved for Rank 1+, and IQ/VH spells require even higher Rank (Rank 2, 3, or more).

Rank restricts spell Magery requirements. Anybody can find a teacher for spells that require no Magery (trivial ones), but training in spells that call for Magery requires Rank – the higher the Magery requirement, the greater the Rank. Perhaps any spell that needs Magery (even Magery 0) to cast in normal mana requires Rank 1+, and Magery 1-3 spells require Rank 2-4. Requirements may be steeper; e.g., Rank 1+ for Magery 0, Rank 2+ for Magery 1, Rank 4+ for Magery 2, and Rank 6+ for Magery 3.

Like Languages (p. 18), the game-mechanical effect is that casters who want to learn only IQ/A spells enjoy a head start. How much of a head start depends on the amount of Rank access to harder magic requires, and its cost per level.
As Thaumatology: Magical Styles, p. 21, discusses, this could be Academic or Guild Rank at just 1 point/level . . . or Administrative, Merchant, Religious, or similar Rank at 5 points/level.

Beyond point costs, Rank offers an in-world explanation for why most people lack access to anything but trivial spells.
If the GM rules that such Rank isn’t available above a certain level or even at all to starting PCs, then Magery (or Power Investiture) becomes more of an investment in the future. It still helps casters of trivial spells, but they won’t start with access to Magic.

Perhaps the strongest way to support hedge magicians is with a Talent that works like Magery or Power Investiture – but only for learning IQ/A spells. This must cost less than the 10 points/level typical of spellcasting talents to be attractive.
A suggestion:

Hedge Magician: Gives +1 per level with all IQ/A spells, effectively raising IQ for the purpose of those spells only.
Like all Talents, this one reduces the time (never point cost!) required to learn what it covers by 10% per level. Instead of a reaction bonus, it provides an “alternative benefit” (see GURPS Power-Ups 3: Talents): Roll against Per-4, +1/level of Hedge Magician, to notice magic items. 5 points/level.

Thus, Magery 0 [5] gives no bonus to spells and a Per roll to spot magic, while for the same points, Hedge Magician 1 [5] gives +1 to IQ/A spells and a Per-3 roll. Magery 1 [15] gives +1 to all spells and a Per+1 roll, while Hedge Magician 3 [15] gives +3 to IQ/A spells and a Per-1 roll. All in all, it seems fair.

Such a Talent really comes into its own alongside some of this chapter’s other ideas. If learning full-spectrum magic means spending 5+ points on Languages, Rank, etc., then someone happy with trivial spells can spend those points here to cast at +1 or more instead.

How many levels are good? Normally, Talents stop at four levels. As Power-Ups 3 explains, this is arbitrary. For instance, to keep hedge magicians competitive, the GM may decide that if mages can attain Magery 3 [35], hedge magicians can spend just as much: Hedge Magician 7 [35]. Cap learning speed at \2, though; e.g., Hedge Magician 7 gives +7 to IQ/A spells and a Per+3 roll to sense magic, but -50% (not -70%) learning time.

What happens if someone has Hedge Magician and Magery? Mostly, they stack. Add both advantage levels to IQ when learning IQ/A spells, but only Magery for harder ones.
When sensing magic, it’s simplest to add both to Per, too.
Thus, someone with Magery 1 [15] and Hedge Magician 3 [15] learns most spells at +1 to IQ, learns IQ/A spells at +4, and senses magic at Per+4.

Would this Talent would work better as Magery with a limitation – say, Hedge Magic Only, -50%? That’s a worldbuilding decision. Making Hedge Magician fundamentally mundane – not a magical gift, however limited – jibes better with “spells anybody can learn.” It means hedge magicians aren’t perforce mages, and distinguishes the groups in the milieu as well as mechanically.

Unusual Background
see p. B96

The GM who doesn’t want a social spin on who learns what spells may replace Rank (p. 19) or other social advantages (see boxed text) with an Unusual Background that serves the same purpose but that’s explained by the rarity of suitable teachers (who evidently refuse to act as Patrons) rather than by privilege. The point cost could stay the same – although if even IQ/A spells aren’t widespread, access to them should require at least 5 points, with harder magic costing more. As Unusual Background is pure fiat, the gap can be as large as the GM wants; e.g., 5 points for trivial spells, but 25 or more points for harder ones.

Other Social Advantages

The GM may restrict access to spells harder than IQ/A to characters with advantages other than or as well as Rank (p. 19). Some classics:

Clerical Investment (p. B43): Only the priesthood may learn harder spells. These needn’t require Power Investiture! Society could view Magery-based magic as angelic – or as dangerously tempting, or diabolical – and entrust it strictly to priests. Religious Rank could also be required.

Patrons (pp. B72-74): Anyone can learn IQ/A spells, but harder ones require close mentoring. Those who want access to them must possess a wizardly – or divine, or demonic – Patron of some minimum power level or point cost. If such magic is merely secret, a Patron who can teach it has Special Abilities, +50%; if it’s effectively unknown, this becomes +100%.

Security Clearance (pp. B82-83): In secret-magic settings, everything about magic might be “need to know”! Access to proof of its existence and mundane skills relevant to it costs 5 points; to IQ/A spells, 10 points; and to harder spells, 15 points.

Status (pp. B28-29): Powerful magic is reserved for the ruling classes. Any commoner might be a “hedge magician” or “wise woman” who casts IQ/A spells, but the Faerie Queen, Evil Emperor, or Great Hierophant allows only courtiers to study serious magic. Follow the advice on Rank, reading “Rank” as “Status.”

Tenure (p. B93): Only professors of magical academies can learn harder spells. Academic Rank could be required, too.

In all cases, the effect resembles that of Rank: Gamemechanically, being a wizard with IQ/H and IQ/VH spells becomes more costly, so dabblers satisfied with IQ/A spells start out ahead. Dramatically, the GM has a way to explain why harder spells are so rare.

Skills for Minor Magicians

　To be a minor magician, learn IQ/A spells. Still, in a world where “hedge magician” is a genuine profession – perhaps with its own Talent and distinctive Magic Perks (p. 19) – there may be a related body of professional knowledge.

Expert Skill
see pp. B193-194
Settings with trivial spells may require a new Expert Skill:

Folk Magic: General expertise on trivial spells. Can stand in for Occultism, Ritual Magic, Thaumatology,
Theology, etc. to answer questions about what IQ/A spells exist, what Magic Perks are associated with them, how Hedge Magician works, and how these matters relate to and interact with harder spells, more potent perks, and Magery. Cannot be used to research new spells or identify harder ones in action.
Most mages (and some hedge magicians) learn Thaumatology, which includes this skill.

Savoir-Faire
see p. B218

　Settings where hedge magic has a respected practitioner in every village may have a new specialty:

　Wise Folk: How to solicit magical help from hedge magicians, convince them to teach you, and work as one without
offending others. Depending on the backdrop, time spent practicing in the area, demonstrated magical skill, or Hedge Magician level might determine relative standing – but Magery rarely does. In worlds where wizards have Rank and something like Savoir-Faire (Guild), or Status and Savoir-Faire (High Society), this specialty and that for wizards default either way at -2. There are no other defaults between specialties.
