Romantic Spells (3.5)

[Jack Zander]

What are some good wizard spells to use to swoon women? So far I've got minor things like presto and dancing lights to create a romantic background. I suppose images could be used as well to produce some good scenery. What about ways to summon creatures like doves (or is that the druid's shtick?) I was also thinking levitate could be used to get that floating feeling when two kiss.

Other than Charm Person, Dominate Person, and Polymorph?

[Colmarr]

I assume you're looking for suggestions more "high brow" than using Alter self/Polymorph to make the wizard appear more attractive and/or impressive.

If so, then I'd say you're limited to the illusions and conjurations, although some evocations (Gust of Wind if it has a "slight breeze" setting) might be helpful.

[Glyphic]

What is it you want, Mary? What do you want? You-you want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it Design and epic-level-spell and pull it down. Hey, that's a pretty good idea. I'll give you the moon...Well, then you could swallow it. And it'll all dissolve, see. And the moon beams that shoot out of your fingers and your toes and the ends of your hair...Am I talking too much? and purify the villainous

Read the BoEF.

And don't forget Ghost Sound for music, and Suggestion to help with the question.

Or you could just play a Bard, and get them the old-fashioned way(by boosting your diplomacy check to +160). ;)

[Innis Cabal]

Two words: Dominate....Person....

[Grey Watcher]

If you and your DM are of a mind, you could include these homebrew spells from a long ago design contest. The last two probably won't be much use to you, but the first two are useful for seducers.

[Sstoopidtallkid]

I remember Tayla had a few Homebrew spells as well that may have been similar to this. I'll see if I can track them down.

Edit: Notreally what you were looking for, but here. Well balanced, but...

[Oracle_Hunter]

Grease.

...

I'm a terrible person.

But more seriously

Spoiler

advanced illusion spells can set the atmosphere for whatever you need, the Create Object spells can produce various gifts, and Teleport can take you and your date to romantic spots otherwise not accessible by mundane paramours.

Um... Detect Thoughts to get her what she always wanted but could never ask for?

Just don't use Zone of Truth. That never ends well

Ngh. I feel so unclean!

[jcsw]

Druids had a level 7 spell called rain of roses... In book of Exalted deeds.

It does exactly what it says on the tin, except you shouldn't use it if the one you're trying to wow is evil, cause they take lots of wisdom damage and get sickened if they are... Then again, good way to tell if your lover is a succubus...

I've done several of the below.

Animate Object - Give her some flowers, then make them dance around her. Gifts flock to her, literally. Why push in her chair, have magic do it for you.
Polymorph Any Object - Give her a rock, distract her, ask her where the rock is? She looks into her hand at the rock, it's now a ring. Transform anything into candy. Give her wings, let her fly. The potential is endless.
Water Breathing + Teleport = Ask her to take your hand if she trusts you, cast water breathing then teleport to a coral reef under the ocean.
Air Walk - Dance in the sky.
Scry + Teleport - Show her the world, then take her there.
Craft Contingent Spells - Nothing says I love you like placing powerful wards on the one you love.
Healing Spells - Nothing like bringing her back from the verge of death.

While we're on the subject, are there any spells or charms that grant ... you know ... protection?

'Cause the alternative could be an end to a young adventurer's career. Just saying.

Nothing like casting magic circle against the clap to ruin an otherwise romanitic evening.

[Oracle_Hunter]

I always assumed the cleric spell "Protection from Negative Consequences" covered all those situations.

And I think a "Magic Circle" probably is a little too much protection, unless you typically engage in relations from the distance of 10 feet or more.

Also: I'm glad to purchased a scroll of Summon Euphemisms earlier today

[amanamana]

Back in the old days, when I used to play a human mage of 13th level, who had a CHA 15, I designed a cantrip version of mage armor that worked in a more restricted area... you know... but still allowed for sensations.
Sir William was a practical kind of guy, who didn't wanted to learn that that woman in that tavern, back in thaaaaaaat village was giving birth to the end of his adventurer days.
When he got married, the spell allowed for family planning...
Best spell I've ever reserched!

Maybe they have to make regular use of an Enlarge Item spell?

"Magic Circle against the clap" and "Enlarge item" is going to keep me up all night laughing now. Thanks a lot.

[Ganurath]

Oh, man, the applications of Prestidigitation are endless.

[Oracle_Hunter]

Well, I certainly hope somebody took the Monkey Grip feat, or there's going to be some serious penalties for wielding oversized equipment!

[RTGoodman]

You know, a while back on the Mature section of the WotC forums there was thread just like this, but with a decidedly more... adult result.


I can't really find any that don't sound dirty (enlarge person? grease?), though I guess message could be used romantically.

Also, you'll want detect undead because, well, you need to make sure of things beforehand so you get hit with some big surprises later.

BoEF has what you need.

Honestly the first thing I thought was:
"There shall be no applause during tonight's performance."

Which can be taken in so many ways.

Also Mindrape.

[Magnor Criol]

This thread is going beautifully.

On an actual note of contribution - I think the illusion spells are going to be your best friend, unless there's some particularly applicable ones in splatbooks out there (I hadn't heard of Rain of Roses before, that'd be a nice touch...) Since it's not like you're needing them for combat or fooling hostile guards, you're simply setting the mood for someone who probably is quite willing to believe the illusions whether she knows they're illusion or not, they can do everything you want them to do.

....assuming you're going for the romantic seduction and not...less savory routes.

[Ravens_cry]

Woah, now that's what I call Reach!

[Oracle_Hunter]

I'd also note some Extended Summons probably can get you some helpful creatures. Celestial Dolphins or whatnot for moonlit rides.

Also: Animate Rope.

...okay, I'm done for now. Maybe

[FoE]

You know, I suddenly realized a good reason to take levels in Monk.

Multiple touch attacks. Immunity to diseases. And lots of knowledge about pressure points and human anatomy. Get my drift?

Pin them quickly, then deal enough nonlethal damage to render her unconscious, and...

This cannae end well.

[Ganurath]

L0: Prestidigitation can do anything Mage Hand can, and it can also make things taste like chocolate. Dancing Lights can also be used to provide romantic lighting.

L1: Charm Person is the obvious choice, although on the racier end of the spectrum lay Grease and Animate Rope. Want something between? Hello, Unseen Servant.

L2: Eagle's Splendor is an obvious one, although you could argue with the DM as to how False Life improves your health.

L3: Use Suggestion to get her to join you in the Tiny Hut, then cast Haste on both of you... Or, if you're more romantic than sexual, Gaseous Form allows for a more platonic mingling of forms.

L4: Minor Creation makes gifts, as mentioned, and Secure Shelter replaces Tiny Hut.

L5: Fabricate and Major Creation for gifts, pretty obvious. Mage's Private Sanctum, though, is a considerate touch. As for why I waited until now to mention illusions, Persistent Image doesn't require concentration, so you can focus on her.

L6: Legend Lore to keep track of birthdays, relative, anniversaries, and Contingency has endless applications. Control Water has some interesting applications, but Mage's Lucubration doesn't do what it sounds like.

L7: Instant Summons for gifts you can't Major Create, Mage's Magnificent Mansion to treat her how she deserves, Greater Teleport for unerringly arriving at any romantic location on the Material Plane, or just Planeshift to Celestia. Please, don't bar Conjuration if you specialize.

L8: Between Polymorph Any Object and Iron Body, L8 spells are the exclusive territory of sexual application.

L9: If you can cast 9th level spells, you can make your own girlfriend between Craft Construct and Wish. If you're up for perversion, though, try Time Stop.

Flurry of Blows.... Tongue of the Sun and Moon....

Good times.

[Tsotha-lanti]

Just eMule- I'm sorry, I mean buy the Book of Erotic Fantasy. It's nowhere near as racy as, say, Fanny Hill (in fact, I'd say TV shows Rome are more explicit, if more vanilla), and has plenty of spells and other mechanics.

[Tokiko Mima]

Before anyone suggests it. Mind Rape and/or Programmed Amnesia are not in any way romantic spells, even if you could be use them to make any sentient creature fall in love with you.

Romance =/= efficiency.




Edit: I was too late. Zeful wins.
