The two recipients are the only ones who can understand the other when using the cant (can choose to speak in any other language known instead during the duration).

Note that someone else with their own Carista's Chant cast on them will still be unable to understand to understand the pair.
SAVE: None; unless companion is unwilling, then Standard

**DORAIN'S DEVILISH DWOEMER**
Dur: 10 min / level	Range: 20 feet	Cost: 30 P.P.E.

In actual fact, the person has no such thing. He will see energy projections fire, and seem to hit; he will be convinced that his punches do supernatural damage, he'll see himself fly, etc. If the subject is about to do anything fatal to himself, he gets another saving throw.

SAVE: Standard

EFFECT: A swirling wind filled with sticky filaments forms in the area desired by caster. The filaments will stick to anything they touch, and to each other. Targets within the area effect will quickly become completely wrapped in filaments (if they lie prone, the filaments can't wrap all the way around them). After the storm, the filaments begin to dry and shrink. S.D.C. creatures and structures will be suffocated and crushed within 10 minutes (take 1D4 damage 4 melees after storm stops. The damage is doubled every melee after that until the target is crushed). Water will totally dissolve the filaments. M.D.C. creatures will suffocate in a half hour.
SAVE: None, Dodge (natural 18-20) to lie prone so not crushed

Dur: 1 melee / level	Range: 120 feet
Cost: 80 P.P.E.	Comp: Material (Juju doll of victim, and a personal token)
EFFECT: The caster takes over the motor control of the target. No innate powers of the victim can be used, only the motion of the victim's body is controlled. Each action/attack the victim is made to do takes up one of the caster's actions that melee. If the caster doesn't control the victim during any particular melee round, he can act on his own until a new action is ordered. Forcing the victim to attack means that he gets natural roll - 3 for all attack actions.
SAVE: Standard

It has 6 attacks / melee, +15 to parry, +1 to strike, and its claws do 2D6 M.D.
SAVE: Not applicable

**METALIZE**
Dur: 1D4x6 hours / level	Range: Touch
Cost: 200 P.P.E.	Comp: Material (bit of desired metal)
EFFECT: Turns a living victim into solid metal. The victim is still alive, but in suspended animation. The S.D.C./M.D.C. of the statue is dependant on what metal victim is turned into. It must be a metal that is solid at normal room temperature. Destroying or melting the statue will kill the victim. Non-supernatural M.D.C. beings are +4 to save; Supernatural beings are +7 to save. At the end of the duration, the victim returns to normal, except for any significant damage done to the statue (i.e. loss of a limb). Mineral-based life-forms are immune to this spell.

If the chrysalis lasts for the full 24 hours, the subject emerges, awakened from a healing trance which restores all HP and S.D.C./M.D.C., P.P.E., I.S.P. and Chi. It also regrows lost limbs, heals all non-magical diseases and lifts all curses. The Chrysalis will survive a vacuum.

Cost: 400 P.P.E.	Comp: Verbal

The crystal has 50 M.D.C. per level of caster. When broken, the victim awakes from suspended animation. The caster cannot reverse the spell; the crystal must be broken.
