Antipathy
Enchantment (Compulsion) [Mind-Affecting] 1 hour SRD
Will partial - Yes Arc 6, Blg 6, Blg 9, Drd 9, Elf 9, Hatred 8, Mental 7, Shu 9, Sin-A 9, Sor/Wiz 8, Wealth 9, Wuj 8 V, S, M/DF
2 hours/level (D) Close General
Target: One location (up to a 10-ft. cube/level) or one object

Object or location affected by spell repels certain creatures.

You cause an object or location to emanate magical vibrations that repel either a specific kind of intelligent creature or creatures of a particular alignment, as defined by you. The kind of creature to be affected must be named specifically. A creature subtype is not specific enough. Likewise, the specific alignment to be repelled must be named.

Creatures of the designated kind or alignment feel an overpowering urge to leave the area or to avoid the affected item.

A compulsion forces them to abandon the area or item, shunning it and never willingly returning to it while the spell is in effect. A creature that makes a successful saving throw can stay in the area or touch the item but feels uncomfortable doing so. This distracting discomfort reduces the creature's Dexterity score by 4 points.

Antipathy counters and dispels sympathy.

Elemental Swarm
Conjuration (Summoning) 10 minutes SRD
None - No Air 9, Arc 9, Drd 9, Dwarf 9, Earth 9, Fire 9, Ocean 9, Shu 9, Water 9, Wmg 9 V, S
10 min./level (D) Medium 1 hour
Effect: Two or more summoned creatures, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart

Summons multiple elementals.

This spell opens a portal to an Elemental Plane and summons elementals from it. A druid can choose the plane (Air, Earth, Fire, or Water); a cleric opens a portal to the plane matching his domain.

When the spell is complete, 2d4 Large elementals appear. Ten minutes later, 1d4 Huge elementals appear. Ten minutes after that, one greater elemental appears. Each elemental has maximum hit points per HD. Once these creatures appear, they serve you for the duration of the spell.

The elementals obey you explicitly and never attack you, even if someone else manages to gain control over them. You do not need to concentrate to maintain control over the elementals. You can dismiss them singly or in groups at any time.

When you use a summoning spell to summon an air, earth, fire, or water creature, it is a spell of that type.

Etherealness
Transmutation 1 standard action SRD
- Yes APeace 9, Arc 9, Beguiler 9, Clr 9, Portal 7, Portal (alt) 7, Shu 9, Sor/Wiz 9, Wuj 9 V, S
1 min./level (D) Touch; see text 30 minutes
Targets: You and one other touched creature per three levels

Travel to Ethereal Plane with companions.

You and other willing creatures joined by linked hands become ethereal, along with your equipment. Besides yourself, you can bring one creature per three caster levels to the Ethereal Plane. Once ethereal, the subjects need not stay together. For the duration of the spell, you are in a place called the Ethereal Plane, which overlaps the normal, physical, Material Plane. When the spell expires, you all return to material existence.

An ethereal creature is invisible, insubstantial, and capable of moving in any direction, even up or down, albeit at half normal speed. As an insubstantial creature, you can move through solid objects, including living creatures. An ethereal creature can see and hear on the Material Plane, but everything looks gray and ephemeral. Sight and hearing onto the Material Plane are limited to 60 feet.

Force effects and abjurations affect an ethereal creature normally. Their effects extend onto the Ethereal Plane from the Material Plane, but not vice versa. An ethereal creature cant attack material creatures, and spells you cast while ethereal affect only other ethereal things. Certain material creatures or objects have attacks or effects that work on the Ethereal Plane.

Treat other ethereal creatures and ethereal objects as if they were material.

If you end the spell and become material while inside a material object (such as a solid wall), you are shunted off to the nearest open space and take 1d6 points of damage per 5 feet that you so travel.

Implosion
Evocation 1 standard action SRD
Fortitude negates - Yes Arc 9, Blg 9, Clr 9, Destruction 9, Shu 9, Slime 9, Wmg 9 V, S
Concentration (up to 4 rounds) Close General
Targets: One corporeal creature/round

Kills one creature/round.

You create a destructive resonance in a corporeal creatures body. For each round you concentrate, you cause one creature to collapse in on itself, killing it. (This effect, being instantaneous, cannot be dispelled.)

You can target a particular creature only once with each casting of the spell.

Implosion has no effect on creatures in gaseous form or on incorporeal creatures.

Imprisonment
Abjuration 1 standard action SRD
Will negates; see text - Yes Arc 9, Cavern 9, Inquisition 9, Shu 9, Sor/Wiz 9, Wuj 9 V, S
Instant Touch General
Target: Creature touched

Entombs subject beneath the earth.

When you cast imprisonment and touch a creature, it is entombed in a state of suspended animation (see the temporal stasis spell) in a small sphere far beneath the surface of the earth. The subject remains there unless a freedom spell is cast at the locale where the imprisonment took place. Magical search by a crystal ball, a locate object spell, or some other similar divination does not reveal the fact that a creature is imprisoned, but discern location does. A wish or miracle spell will not free the recipient, but will reveal where it is entombed. If you know the targets name and some facts about its life, the target takes a -4 penalty on its save.

Meteor Swarm
Evocation [Fire] 1 standard action SRD
None or Reflex half; see text - Yes Arc 9, Shu 9, Sor/Wiz 9, Wmg 9 V, S
Instant Long General
Area: Four 40-ft.-radius spreads; see text

Four exploding spheres each deal 6d6 fire damage.

Meteor swarm is a very powerful and spectacular spell that is similar to fireball in many aspects. When you cast it, four 2- foot-diameter spheres spring from your outstretched hand and streak in straight lines to the spots you select. The meteor spheres leave a fiery trail of sparks.

If you aim a sphere at a specific creature, you may make a ranged touch attack to strike the target with the meteor. Any creature struck by one of these spheres takes 2d6 points of bludgeoning damage (no save) and receives no saving throw against the sphere's fire damage (see below). If a targeted sphere misses its target, it simply explodes at the nearest corner of the target's space. You may aim more than one meteor at the same target.

Once a sphere reaches its destination, it explodes in a 40-foot-radius spread, dealing 6d6 points of fire damage to each creature in the area. If a creature is within the area of more than one sphere, it must save separately against each. (Fire resistance applies to each spheres damage individually.)

Storm of Vengeance
Conjuration (Summoning) 1 round SRD
See text - Yes Arc 9, Blg 9, Clr 9, Drd 9, Nobility 9, Retribution 9, Shu 9, Sin-W 9, Storm 9, Summer 9, Wrath 9 V, S
Concentration (maximum 10 rounds) (D) Long General
Effect: 360-ft.-radius storm cloud

Storm rains acid, lightning, and hail.

This spell creates an enormous black storm cloud. Lightning and crashing claps of thunder appear within the storm. Each creature beneath the cloud must succeed on a Fortitude save or be deafened for 1d4x10 minutes.

If you do not maintain concentration on the spell after casting it, the spell ends. If you continue to concentrate, the spell generates additional effects in each following round, as noted below. Each effect occurs during your turn.

2nd Round: Acid rains down in the area, dealing 1d6 points of acid damage (no save).

3rd Round: You call six bolts of lightning down from the cloud. You decide where the bolts strike. No two bolts may be directed at the same target. Each bolt deals 10d6 points of electricity damage. A creature struck can attempt a Reflex save for half damage.

4th Round: Hailstones rain down in the area, dealing 5d6 points of bludgeoning damage (no save).

5th through 10th Rounds: Violent rain and wind gusts reduce visibility. The rain obscures all sight, including darkvision, beyond 5 feet. A creature 5 feet away has concealment (attacks have a 20% miss chance). Creatures farther away have total concealment (50% miss chance, and the attacker cannot use sight to locate the target). Speed is reduced by three-quarters.

Ranged attacks within the area of the storm are impossible. Spells cast within the area are disrupted unless the caster succeeds on a Concentration check against a DC equal to the storm of vengeances save DC + the level of the spell the caster is trying to cast.

Summon Nature's Ally IX
Conjuration (Summoning) 1 round SRD
None - No Arc 9, Drd 9, Fey 9, Gnome 9, Shu 9 V, S, DF
1 round/level (D) Close General
Effect: One or more creatures, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart

Calls creature to fight.

This spell functions like summon natures ally I, except that you can summon one 9th-level creature, 1d3 8th-level creatures of the same kind, or 1d4+1 lower-level creatures of the same kind.

When you use a summoning spell to summon an air, chaotic, earth, evil, fire, good, lawful, or water creature, it is a spell of that type.

3) Can cast irresistible dance

Teleportation Circle (M)
Conjuration (Teleportation) 10 minutes SRD
None - Yes Arc 9, Rune 9, Shu 9, Sor/Wiz 9, Wuj 9 V, M
10 min./level (D) 0 ft. General
Effect: 5-ft.-radius circle that teleports those who activate it
Materials: Amber dust to cover the area of the circle (cost 1,000 gp).

Circle teleports any creature inside to designated spot.

You create a circle on the floor or other horizontal surface that teleports, as teleport, greater, any creature who stands on it to a designated spot. Once you designate the destination for the circle, you can't change it. The spell fails if you attempt to set the circle to teleport creatures into a solid object, to a place with which you are not familiar and have no clear description, or to another plane.

The circle itself is subtle and nearly impossible to notice. If you intend to keep creatures from activating it accidentally, you need to mark the circle in some way.

Teleportation circle can be made permanent with a permanency spell. A permanent teleportation circle that is disabled becomes inactive for 10 minutes, then can be triggered again as normal.

Note: Magic traps such as teleportation circle are hard to detect and disable. A rogue (only) can use the Search skill to find the circle and Disable Device to thwart it. The DC in each case is 25 + spell level, or 34 in the case of teleportation circle.

True Resurrection (M)
Conjuration (Healing) [Ectomancy] 10 minutes SRD
None; see text - Yes (harmless) APeace 9, Arc 9, Clr 9, Hlr 9, SaveLife 9, Shu 9 V, S, M, DF
Instant Touch General
Target: Dead creature
Materials: A sprinkle of holy water and diamonds worth a total of at least 25,000 gp.

As resurrection, plus remains aren't needed.

You restore life to a deceased creature. You can raise a creature that has been dead for no longer than 10 years per caster level. In addition, the subject's soul must be free and willing to return. If the subject's soul is not willing to return, the spell does not work; therefore, a subject that wants to return receives no saving throw.

Upon completion of the spell, the creature is immediately restored to full hit points, vigor, and health, with no loss of prepared spells.

This spell can even bring back creatures whose bodies have been destroyed, provided that you unambiguously identify the deceased in some fashion (reciting the deceaseds time and place of birth or death is the most common method).

You can revive someone killed by a death effect or someone who has been turned into an undead creature and then destroyed. This spell can also resurrect elementals or outsiders, but it can't resurrect constructs or undead creatures.

Even true resurrection can't restore to life a creature who has died of old age.
