This spell creates a field of Anti-Magic that lasts for up to an hour. Note that with the Vancian Magic system, all effects include "contact with an Anti-Magic field with equal or greater Active Points" as part of the turn-off clause for their Charge. Thus, any Vancian spell of 99 AP or less will turn off automatically upon entering this Anti-Magic effect. Such spells also cannot be cast from within or into such a zone either.

Complicated multiple mechanical effect. GM Permission required.
NOTE: due to ridiculous cost overages this does not even remotely model the source material, particularly the Blue, Indigo, and Violet rays. This version works best vs. a pack of weaker opponents; crowd control essentially. The source material's version of this spell is just too powerful to model under this system; all due apologies. |

Charm, Mind-Affecting |
Description |
This powerful magic allows a caster to lay a long-term command upon a target. This spell is difficult and slow to cast and is usually used on an immobilized or coerced subject. The command is generally in contract form, and acts to force the target to complete or pursue a specific task, goal, or to modify behavior. It could be "deliver thing a to place b"; it could also be "don't kill innocents". |
