So, I'm thinking of running a Savage Worlds version of Quest for Glory 1: So You Want to be a Hero for my son. To do that, I'm having to make a few things, and would not mind some feedback:

Calm
Rank: Novice
Power Points: 2
Range: Smarts
Duration: Instant
Trappings: Calming music

Calm reduces the aggression of the target, causing them to "bliss out" and not attack the character. With a successful casting, the target cannot move and is Distracted. With a raise, the target is Distracted and Vulnerable, and cannot take any physical actions.

At the end of their turn, a victim of this spell may make a Spirit roll to attempt to break free of the calm. Success indicates that they have broken free; failure indicates that the calm continues for another turn. The calm automatically ends if the target is subject to any attack that does more than 3 points of damage above their armor (if any); the attack need not cause the target to be Shaken or receive a Wound, simply connect.

For 1 additional power point, the spell can be changed to a Medium Blast template, centered on the caster, who is not affected.

Dazzle
Rank: Novice
Power Points: 2
Range: Smarts
Duration: Instant
Trappings: Blinding Burst of Light

Dazzle produces bright light. The target must make a Vigor roll (at −2 with a raise on the arcane skill roll) or be Stunned (see 106).

For 1 point, the spell may be changed to a Medium Blast template, centered on the caster. The caster does not need to make a Vigor roll.

Fetch
Rank: Novice
Power Points: 2
Range: Smarts *2
Duration: 5

Fetch is a more limited version of Telekinesis. It only has an effective strength of d4 (d6 with a raise), and is limited to slow (pace 4), straight line movement. With success, an item may be brought to the caster; with a raise, the item may instead be moved from one place to another, but only in a straight line.

Open
Rank: Novice
Power Points: 1
Range: Smarts
Duration: Instant

Open allows the mage to attempt to open a lock or closed door, as if making a Thievery check, but using Spellcasting, instead. If a door is not locked, then it will open normally to the spell.

Zap (Smite)
Rank: Novice
Power Points: 1
Range: Touch
Duration: 5
Trappings: Crackling blue glow

This power is cast on a weapon of some sort. If it’s a ranged weapon, it affects one entire magazine, 20 bolts, shells, or arrows, or one full “load” of ammunition (the GM determines the exact quantity for unusual weapons). While the power is in effect, the weapon’s damage is increased by +2, or +4 with a raise. The weapon also receives +2 AP, unless the target is warded against electrical damage.

Ok, a need I see I'm going to need soon: The Weaponmaster. I'm going to build him "legal", rather than just assign stats, but I'm gonna keep building him with advances until he's where I want... which may defeat the purpose, but it gives me practice.

New NPC: The Kobold. I'm going to use the Fantasy Companion Goblin as a base, here... Quest for Glory kobolds aren't terribly defined beyond "Magic-Users", and I think the free novice edge works well for that.
