Druid Level 1

Animal Enmity

Spell level:               Druidic 1

Magic Points:         2

Range:                     Touch

Duration:               12 hours

Ingredients:            A drop of hunter's blood

The target of the Animal Enmity becomes offensive to all natural animals for the duration of the spell, drawing the least favourable response from them. Animals will not automatically attack the victim - horses will buck and shy away, cats will hiss and scratch, dogs will bark and growl and so on. If such an animal is threatened it will attack of flee, depending on its nature. If the target manages to capture or tether any animal, it will not co-operate and will use any means to escape. Pets will not attack or flee but will act in a cold and aloof manner for the duration of the spell.

This spell allows the caster to make telepathic contact with any non-fantastic animal of low intelligence (6-14 within 6 yards.

The caster may communicate with the animal freely, and may be able to command it.

The spell lasts for I turn, but may be extended by the expenditure of additional Magic points.

While the chance of finding a specific type of plant depends on the details and circumstances of the locale, as a general rule the Availability Table (p292 WFRP) can be used as for a population centre below 10,000.

By casting this spell, the Druid is able to survey the area before him up to the maximum range of the spell and determine whether the flora and fauna are natural or not.

"Unnatural" predatory plants such as damaging moulds or fungi, Illusionary Woods, Lycanthropes and similar illusions will be seen for what they really are. The presence of Elementals is always detected. The spell does not confer upon the Druid any ability to detect traps such as snares and pits, or details of natural flora and fauna, which are unfamiliar to him.

Messenger

Magic Points:         2

Range:                     24 yards

This spell enables the Druid to call upon any small natural creature to act as his messenger. The Druid can communicate with the animal in a crude fashion, telling it to go to a certain place, but directions must be simple. After a small note or item is attached to it, the animal will follow its instruction and wait at the given location until the expiration of the spell, at which point the animal returns to its normal activities. The target animal is not empowered with any form of communication of its own. Note also that when the recipient retrieves the message or item, the spell concludes and no reply may be sent.

The druid and any friendly group with him see and move normally through the Mist Cloud (the Druid's familiar may also move normally within the cloud even if more than 4 yards away from him but within the area of effect).

The Druid usually employs the spell as a barrier between himself and any enemies who seek to attack him.

He cannot be tracked by any non-magical means though an area in which the spell was in effect.

Predict Weather

Magic Points:         2
