    Default elemental spells

    I am working on a alternate system for spellcasting that is based on 7 elements: Fire, Earth, Air, Water, Metal, Wood, and Void

    The current phase of this project involves making a list of spells by spell level that fit the various themes. The first four are easy (domain spells + spell filter [earth/fire/air/water descriptor]. The others don't work out quite so cut-and-dried, so any suggestions for spells that fit the other themes would be appreciated. I plan on hitting up complete Arcane ASAP, as I recall Wu-Jen having a Metal element, with associated spells.

    I am associating positive energy spells with Wood and negative energy spells with Void. This is of course an oversimplification, but it is justified within the context of the setting I am building this for.

    Thanks in Advance

    EDIt- Suggestions so far:
    Void:
    6 or 7: Disintegrate

    Just stopping by to say that Wu-Jen get wood spells, too.

    Also, how about disintegrate for void?

    Ah! A cross between Japanese and Chinese elemental systems eh? Very nice idea! As my group's resident element fanatic (i even designed a whole frackin' campaign setting about the elements!) I'd love to help. I might even make some base classes....

    Wood:
    Tree Stride,
    Wood Warp

    Metal:
    Rusting Grasp

    (All I could think of this late at night)

    Though, these might be in CArc anyways...I left my copy at my other house.

    Cheers,

    What do you get when you cross Star Wars, Star Trek, OD&D, and percentile rolls, and jumble it up in a big pot of surrealism? This game right here.
