Stone Fall
Level: 1
Casting Time: One action
Range: Medium (100 feet + 10 feet/level)
Target: One creature or object
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: Yes
A stony mass falls from seeming thin air onto a designated target. You make a
ranged attack (not a touch attack) to strike the target. The stone fall deals 1d6
points of damage per two caster levels (maximum 5d6).
Veil of Meteors
Level 4
Casting Time: One action
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 10 minutes/level
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: No
You conjure four tiny rough stones plus one additional stone for every three caster
levels. The conjured stones always float in the air within 3 feet of you. Upon casting,
the stones take up a circling orbit 1d3 feet from your body. Each stone leaves
behind a trail of glowing light, as if it were a miniature streaking meteor.
Each stone protects you against physical ranged and melee attacks by interposing
itself between you and an attack. Each stone can take up to 8 points of damage for
you before disintegrating. Thus, a 7th-level caster with six stones can take up to 48
points of damage before her shield erodes completely. This orrery of protection does
not hinder touch attacks.
This effect stacks with similar effects produced by other spells, including stoneskin.
The stones offer their protection until expended, until the spells duration expires, or
unless each is grasped or netted to separate it from you.
Each stone has an AC of 18. Once captured, a stone dissipates and may not be
reactivated.
Minor Meteorite
Level 5
Casting Time: One action
Range: Long (400 feet + 40 feet/level)
Target: One creature or object (see text)
Area: 20-foot-radius spread from target (see text)
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: None or Reflex half (see text)
Spell Resistance: Yes
As meteorite, except that the evoked chunk of star-stuff is smaller. A creature struck
by a ranged touch attack by a minor meteorite takes 12d6 points of impact
damage, and the fireball-like explosion deals 4d6 points of fire damage to each
creature in the 20-foot radius area.
Spell Resistance: No
As veil of meteors: Conjure stones = four +1 per 3 level. Each stone absorbs 8
points of physical (not energy) damage. Stacks with other protection spells, like
stoneskin.
Also: as a move-equivalent action, you can direct one of your circling sentries to
streak away from its protective circuit and attack a foe. You may direct only one
such stone of your veil in this fashion each round. A commanded stone can be
directed to attack any one target within your line of sight as if you were making a
ranged touch attack. If the stone penetrates your foes AC, it deals 6d6 points of
damage.
Meteorite
Level 9
Casting Time: One action
Range: Long (400 feet + 40 feet/level)
Target: One creature or object (see text)
Area: 20-foot-radius spread from target (see text)
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: None or Reflex half (see text)
Spell Resistance: Yes
Meteorite evokes a piece of celestial matter and rains it down upon a foe. When you
cast it, the meteorite appears as high above the target as the immediate
environment allows (raining down from the sky if no ceiling). The mundane
meteorite streaks down with an orange glow, leaving a visible tail and audible
thunder in its wake. Make a ranged touch attack to strike the target with the
meteorite. Any creature struck by the meteorite receives no saving throw and takes
18d6 points of impact damage. If a targeted meteorite misses its target, it simply
explodes at that point. Once a meteorite strikes, it explodes in a 20-foot-radius
spread (similar to a fireballs) that deals 8d6 points of fire damage to each creature
in the area (Reflex save for half damage).
