Effect: This spell summons a mystical giant Battle Ax. The Ax strikes a specified individual target for 1-8 pts. of damage. In addition, as a final blow, the Ax will cause a magical effect to occur (at random): (1) Suffer an additional 1-8 pts. of damage; (2) 2-16 pts. of damage; (3) Paralyzed for 5-15 seconds. * At Level 9+, the following new effects can occur: (4) 5-40 pts. of Fire damage; (5) 6-48 pts. of Ice damage; (6) Randomly teleported 1-100 yds. Away; (7) Turned to stone; or (8) 8-64 pts. of pure damage.

This spell only affects the caster. Whenever the caster is attacked while the spell is in effect, all hostile creatures within a 10 foot radius take equal damage. It lasts for 1 attack per 4 levels of the caster, and the effects are not cumulative (you cannot have more than one Balance spells erected). If the spell is not triggered, it lasts for 5 seconds per level of the caster.

Caster can create up to 4 glowing spheres of lightning when the spell is cast. They are roughly 3 ft. in diameter. The damage varies depending on the number of balls created:

The spell creates a "shield" effect similar to the shield spell that absorbs 3-12 points of damage + 1 point per level of the caster. Once it has absorbed this amount of damage, it shatters or "powers down". The spell will also expire after 5 seconds per level of the caster.

The caster chooses any single target within range. Then, a stream of small meteors rain down and strike the target and surrounding area - one 'meteor' for each level of experience, up to a maximum of 10. Each missile that hits inflicts 1-2 points of blunt damage and 1-4 points of fire damage. Anyone within 3 feet of the target takes 1 point of fire damage as well.

The caster chooses any single target within range. Then, a stream of fiery meteors rain down and strike the target and surrounding area - one 'meteor' for each level of experience, up to a maximum of 10. Each missile that hits inflicts 1-2 points of blunt damage and 1-4 points of fire damage. Anyone within 3 feet of the target takes 1 point of fire damage as well.

This spell allows the caster to immobilize 1-3 undead creatures, provided that the total HD of the creatures are equal to or less than the caster's level. Furthermore, undead with less than 3 HD are automatically affected. Those with 3 or more HD are allowed a saving throw to negate the spell. Those affected are rendered immobile for the duration of the spell. When cast, the caster can choose the point of origin of the spell (within range), and from there, the 3 closest undead are affected.

Works on caster only. The spell creates a fiery shield that bestows a 150% Normal Fire Resistance and a 150% Magical Fire Resistance. The spell will expire after 5 seconds / level of caster.

Tasha's Unbearable Derisive Laughter occurs in a 30 ft radius from that spot. All male living creatures with an INT > 4 in range of the spell must make a Saving Throw vs. Spells or get a -2 to their attack, -2 to AC, and -2 to their damage rolls for 5 seconds / level of the caster.

When the player touches a non-undead creature, he drains 1-6 hp from the target for every 2 wizard levels he has (2-12 hp for Lvl 4). The damage that he drains is then transferred to the caster and added to their total hp. Any hp over the normal maximum is treated as 'temporary hit points' which will be lost after one hour if not used beforehand (absorbing damage).
