Ideas for Spells

This was discussed briefly on the Shurtugal thread about Alagaesia Online. It was talking about sharing your ideas of spells, so I wanted to move it here. You can post any ideas you may have of new spells, but the information you show should have this:

Name of Spell
Type:(Destructive, Passive)
Power(Weak, Low, Average, Strong, Dangerous, Extreme) Also (Chargeable, non-chargeable).
Description:

All of this is required. However, you can post a video showing what the spell would look like from Youtube, like an example. This is recommended.

Two spells I suggested from before are:

Eldrvarya Gata(burning path)

Type: Destructive
Power: Extreme(chargeable)

After muttering a spell in the Ancient Language, you hold out your hands in a flat position, palm facing the enemy. Fire begins building up in between your hands, and once charged to your desire, fires towards your opponent in a vortex of fire. The length of the flames increases with charging time, along with it's power.

This is a link of what it can look like. It's the first special on the video.

Kveykva fram

Type: Destructive
Power: Extreme

Hastily raise hand up with your palm facing the enemy(again) and lightning steadily builds up in your hand and releases with alarming speed towards your enemy.

Binding spell
(Whatever Murtagh said on the battle of the burning plains to immobilize Eragon)

Passive( I think)

Medium(I dont know what chargeable is?)

The character puts his hands together and a swirling ball appears in his hands spinning faster until he launches it at the opponent immobilizing him.

EDIT: He claps his hands together and pulls them apart and the ball is formed, and he hurls it baseball style at his opponent. It is single target.

The spell you are talking about is Letta, but you should probably just make a new spell, because there was no ball hurtling or pain involved in the spell Letta. However, if it causes pain, it's destructive, not passive.

Aha alright then and no it doesnt cause pain, just binds them and makes them unable to run away or fight back unless a mage/archer. And ok ill make that a new spell... How about, Dorubrim? i dont even know what that is supposed to mean, but it sounds alright :p

I thought Letta meant "release"???
Murtagh didn't use a blinding spell, he used a spell that bound Eragons legs didn't he?
Eragon used a blinding spell in the battle with the Ra'Zac and Letherblaka to blind the Letherblaka. Don't recall wha tthe spells were though word wise.

I don't know. That's an extremely good spell. Maybe when someone says "Letta," the amount of energy they have clashes with the amount of energy of the opponent, and the user with more energy wins.

Nope. He first used Thyrsta Vindr to throw Eragon twenty yards, and then binded him to the ground with Letta.

That could work. I dont know, i was just making a suggestion take what you want or dont, its all cool

EDIT: I had assumed this but forgot to state it; the spell has an 8 second time limit then they can move again and can't be re binded for about 10 seconds or something. It's not a perma-bind, as that would be an extreeeemeely high level spell, and I don't know if you want that included

Shadow shot(ah..I'm really bad in AL so i won't try to translate)
Type: Destructive
Power: Dangerous/
Creates a shadow-crossbow with player's own energy and health. Player fires it and four bolts fly out at the enemy causing triple the damage of health the player gave to the attack. Also has a chance(gets higher as the skill does) to poison the enemy with shadow poison wich causes health damage for 30 seconds (each second drawns some health (maybe 30?))
Anyways hope i got it right and maybe you'll like the idea or not.

Okay, just to help you, I'd say a nice name would be...

Oro/Orya abr Sundavar (Arrow/arrows of shadows)

You can't really make it a shadow arrow (Sunadavar Oro/Orya), because in the Ancient Language the description comes after the object it describes...

If you want it to be shadow arrow it could be Sundavars Oro/Orya which makes it possessive, so its Shadow's arrow, and since the Shadow wouldn't be describing it would be before it.

That sounds cool, but what if your archery level is low and your mage is high? would that affect the amount of the hit?

Probably, but it's Ver's spell so lets wait for him

also, is there going to be a prayer level for like protect from melee or something, or is that the wards?

...Yeah, I think that's in wards. Stop comparing to Runescape This will be SO much better,

Sorry, didn't intend for that to sound critical.
I like the idea of a blinding spell, it could simply make the opponent miss his attacks.

I don't think so, because it's based off of magic.

@Vervada
That's a good spell, but I encourage you guys to post videos of the spells you provide. Eve doesn't have a lot to go off of when you just post instructions and whatnot.

I dont know how to make a video, and i do like Verv's spell

You don't make a video, just find a video on Youtube that has a spell that looks similar to what your spell would do.

Ooh alright. Haha. Well kinda like a Teleblock in RS maybe?

The archery spell?

No, my binding spell.

Oh, I guess.

Yeahhhh but something like where you hold them in front of you chest high clap them together and pull them apart, then pull back one hand holding the ball and throw it baseball style at the opponent.

*hoping I've done it right*
Skip to 30secs to see the attack from close. Something like that would be the bolt flying at you. Just imagne a crossbow with same shadow-violet when firing the bolt off. Hope you got it

Oh and I'm a she

Yeah that should be right.

I like how that looks, but I would have to figure out a few things:

What class would this be available for? Mage I'm assuming?
And how much(A percentage) of health would this attack consume to use? Since you said the damage is three times the amount of health used for the attack, I'm going to have to balance it out

And any binding type spells will snare the target, having spells that completely halt movement(Other than breaking into someone's mind) is extremely overpowered
