The one exclusive look I want to post is the maps from Deadly Delves: Quests of the Sands, but I have been busy and away from my computer. In the meantime, however, I can show you something about Book of Heroic Races: Advanced Tengus that I have been wanting to show off for a while. Let’s take a look at the spells within.
These spells are incredibly thematic and perfect to really make your tengu characters come alive. I also want to point out just how much we integrated the Advanced Class Guide. The new spellcasting classes in that book are getting some real love. Here are two of the spells within.
Murder of Crows
School conjuration (summoning); Level arcanist/ sorcerer/wizard 2, bard/skald 2, druid/hunter 2, shaman 2, summoner 2, witch 2
Casting Time 1 round
Components V, S, M (a handful of shiny coins)
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Effect one swarm of crows
Duration 1 round/level
Saving Throw none; Spell Resistance no
You summon a swarm of crows. Use the stats for a bat swarm (B1) without the blindsense ability. The swarm attacks the nearest creature. If the caster is a tengu, he can control the swarm by concentrating during the spell’s duration. Otherwise, the caster has no control over its target or direction of travel.
Steal Eyes
School necromancy; Level antipaladin 4, arcanist/sorcerer/wizard 4, cleric/oracle/warpriest 5, witch 4
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Target one creature
Duration instantaneous
Saving Throw Fortitude negates; Spell Resistance yes
You rip the eyes of your target from their body, calling them into your hands. The target permanently gains the blinded condition, and the pain of losing their eyes causes them to be sickened. The sickened condition and associated penalties are pain effects and can be removed by any magical healing or a full day’s rest. Since the target’s eyes are physically removed, the resulting blindness cannot be cured by remove blindness, but can be cured by heal, regeneration, or similar abilities.
Stolen eyes can be used in a spell such as scrying to strengthen the bond between the caster and the target or can be used as an additional material component for a spell you cast in the next round that targets the same creature. This consumes the stolen eyes and increases the save DC of the saving throw for the creature by 1.
