I'm making a number of spells with a chess motif. I will be putting them here as I make them. That said, I am horrible at placing spells/schools on levels, so help there is greatly appreciated.
Checkmate:
Checkmate
Level: Sor/Wiz ?
Components: V, S, F
Casting Time: 1 full-round action
Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Duration: 1 round
Saving Throw: Fortitude negates (see text)
Spell Resistance: Yes
By pointing at your foe, you declare an intent to defeat them. As your allies move into place, all there is to say is "Checkmate."
To cast this spell, your target must not be threatened by any of your allies. At the end of the target's next turn, if they are threatened by any of your allies, they take non-lethal damage equal to their maximum hit points (Fortitude negates this, DC +2 for every one of your allies threatening them beyond the first).
Focus:
A king from a chess set.
Promote:

Level: Sor/Wiz ?
Components: V, S, F
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Target: 1 ally in range
Duration: 1 round/level [D]
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: Yes
By pointing at your at your ally, you increase their power.
When you cast this, you take 1 negative level. This level is returned after the spell ends. For the duration of this spell, the target is treated as 1 level higher, as if they had gained a level in the class they have with the most levels (if tied, the one they took the most recently). This does increase saves, BAB, skill points, caster level, HD, hit points and most class features that scale with level, but not spells per day, spells known (also applies to maneuvers, powers, utterances, etc.), or feats. When this spell ends, the extra level is lost, and all benefits of that level are removed.
Focus:
A pawn from a chess set.
Castle:
Castle
Level: Sor/Wiz ?

Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: Yes
By pointing at your at your ally, they move to protect you.
The target of this spell is teleported to your space. You must make a 5 foot step while casting this spell (this is part of the casting time, and not a separate action.)
Focus:
A rook from a chess set.
