Conbook 3

PrinceCon III
Introduction
Welcome to PrinceCon III. Each year at this time we attempt to offer Dungeons and Dragons players from throughout the East an
opportunity to get together to exchange ideas and enjoy the game by hosting a small amateur convention. A lot of work goes into the
planning and running of these conventions and this year’s is the most ambitious yet.
This program book is a collection of all systems and ideas in use here at Princeton which will be used at the convention. It itself involved
many long hours of toil in the depths of Whig Hall. I would like to thank our typists Dave Cardinal, Steve Tihor, Greg Arzoornanian,
Matthew Cook and Tad Deffler, our two outstanding artists Joan Smith and Wanda Lee as well as everyone else involved for a job well
done.
On behalf of Torn Gluick and myself, I wish you all a pleasant weekend of gaming.
David Parker
Convention Co-Director
Dear Adventurers,
When you enter this noble hall and pay your admission, you will be directed to the Hireling Hall where the desired fifth level character
class of your choice will be acquired. This character, a Fighter (Paladin or Ranger if you’re lucky), MU, Cleric, Thief, or Elf F/MU
4/4, is posted upon a card where all requisites, and hit points, future and past will be recorded. Experience and magic items will be
listed oo it. If you lose this card you are in trouble, DON’T LOSE IT!! Upon the blackboard in the lounge, a posted schedule of events,
listing the gamesmaster and time of event, will be kept. It will be your duty to gather a party, and register at the desk before the event
is scheduled. Ten minutes before the event is scheduled to begin, the party will meet the gamesmaster, and he will accompany you to
the room where the expedition will be run. After the conclusion of the episode, all magical items and experience will be evaluated. All
monetary treasure gained is, of course, property of Wizard, Bishop, Alchemist, and Bard, the organization which is providing you with
standard equipment, item evaluation, and limited R & R facilities. (i.e. experience is gained for monetary treasure, but the gold itself is
of no concern to players) Expeditions take place at two-week (subjective time) intervals. This process is repeated until your character
dies, or until the end of the convention, If your character dies, you will acquire a new one at one level lower than when you started the
convention. Survival indicates further play of the same character. All inquiries of special notice should be directed to either myself or
Dave Parker.
Best of luck and enjoyment,
Thomas Gluick, Eunuch PSGU
Convention Co-Director

Rolling Up Characters
The character which you will choose for the convention will be pregenerated by a PDP-11/40 using the “Cribbs system” for non-humans’
requisites.
Race Str Int Wis Con Dex Cha

Human 3d6 3d6 3d6 3d6 3d6 3d6
Elf 3d6 3d6 3d6 3d6 3d6 3d6
Dwarf 3d6+d4 2d8 3d6 3d6+d4 3d6 3d6
Thief 2d8 3d6 3d6 3d6+d4 4d6 3d6
(Where 3d6 denotes the sum of three six-sided dice.) All requisites over 18 are reduced to 18. Requisites below 3 are treated as 3.
Strengths may go as high as 22 (equivalent to 18/00 under Greyhawk); any roll of 18 or more is truncated to 18 and then a ‘die’ is rolled.
If a 4, 5, or 6 is rolled the strength goes up one and the d6 is rerolled to see if it goes up another point, while once a 1, 2, or 3 is rolled
the process stops.
As Mark Cribbs uses this system in his world a player may either choose to be human or may roll on percentile dice to see if he can
become a non-human, and if so which race. For the purposes of the convention this requirement is being eliminated and the player may
choose among any of the race and class combinations which we are using:
Human: Fighter, Cleric, Magic User, or Thief

Elf: Fighter/Magic User or Thief
Dwarf: Fighter or Thief
Hobbit: Fighter or Thief
The player will be assigned to the next character of the race and class on the printout. Rangers and Paladins will occasionally occur
among the Human Fighters and if a character wishes to play within the strict sense of the alignment of such a class, he (or she) may.
The computer will also preroll all hit dice, and the cumulative totals will be provided for you as you go up levels. This will eliminate
bias in the dice and simplify running level draining undead. If this system produces characters either more or less powerful than you
are accustomed to, remember that the wandering parties you meet in the various world of the convention sponsored expeditions were
rolled the same way. See the experience point chart and notes under requisites. (Please note that because of his double-threat nature a
Fighter/Magic-User starts one level lower than any other class. I.e. a first character F/MU is 4 not 5, a second character who is not a
F/MU would be a 4th level, if an F/MU it would be 3rd, etc.

Experience System: We are using the Men and Magic Experience point system, with modifications for races. Instead of absolute pinning
based on strength, we will be using the “delta doubling” system, which is independent of requisites. At any level after a character would
normally be pinned, the increase in experience for the next level is doubled.
Elven F/MU’s experience is the sum of the needed fighter and magic-user experience, taking into account the delta doubling system.
(FMU’s will not split experience and will rise as unified levels.)

Effect of Requisites
Dexterity: Percentile missile bonuses, and melee bonuses when using a dagger in each hand are given on the table below.
Charisma: To find the base chance of charismaing someone into doing something, use as a percentage the difference in their effective
numbers (listed on the table below.) This base should be modified based on circumstances.
Constitution: Resurrection percentage chance is equal to (5 * con.)+ 15%, with only 1% increments when 95% is reached. Spell survival
is 5% higher, unless over 95%, in which case it is only 1% greater. (Hit die bonuses are given below.)
Intelligence: A magic-user may pick (I/2)+1 spells of each level he is able to throw (where I is intelligence, and the number is rounded
down).

While no requisite at the convention may exceed 18 under our roll up system, Clerics may use the “Word of Command” spell to increase
their charisma up to an absolute maximum of 20.
Strengths will do 2-8 on fighters, 1-6 on Clerics and Thieves, and 1-4 on magic-users, but a character’s strength may not exceed 22. (See
the combat tables for strength effects.)

Combat Systems
The following systems were developed by various members of the S.G.U.: the combat table was developed by Howard Mahler, the
initiative system was developed by Mark Cribbs and the miscellaneous systems through general concensus.
The Combat System is a linear percentile system based upon Men & Magic’s Alternate Combat System. The percentile system allows
one to remove the incongruities of the Alternate Combat System. Here there is an increase in hit probability each time a level is gained.
Fighters and monsters gain 4% per level or Hit Die, clerics and thieves gain 3% per level (which means that on the following table their
odd levels should literally be read between the lines), and magic users gain 2% per level. Written as a formula, for a character of level L
to hit he must roll over:
Fighters 100 - 5 x AC - 4 x L
Monster 100 - 5 x AC - 4 x (H.D. + 3)
Cleric/Thief 100 - 5 x AC - 3 x L
Magic User 100 - 5 x AC - 2 x L
where AC is opponent’s Armor Class. A roll of number listed or above on percentile dice (01-00, 00=100) will be a hit.

Mon: This column refers to attacks by bites, claws, stings, etc. For creatures with+ or - to H.D., adjust by that percentage.
Ftr: This column refers to attacks by fighters as well as by weapons in hands of what might otherwise be monsters.
C/T: Attacks by Clerics or Thieves.
MU: Attacks by magic-users.
Wounds Lowering Combat Abilities: For the sado-masochistic gamesmaster, it will not be used in the convention. For every hit point
taken, a 1/3% reduction in the chance to hit, in the case of fractions round off. I don’t care what Howard says this system is a pain in the
ass.
Ignoring an Attacker: If you are completely ignoring an attacker or attack it gets +10% on hitting you. For instance, while preparing or

throwing a spell, while sleeping, held or stunned, or when unaware of an attacker or which direction an attack is coming from. Thieves
who are striking silently from behind do not get this +10% bonus in addition to the +20% they normally get.
Monsters Attacking with Weapons: The fighters column covers attacks by weapons in the hands of what might be otherwise be termed
monster. The following monsters gain the following bonuses: Kobald +0, Goblin +2%, Orc+5%, Hobgoblin +7%, Gnoll +10%,+1
damage, Gnome +2, Harpy-Medusa 0%, Centaur +5%, Minotaur +8%,+1, Salamander +10%,+1, and the Balrog +15% without a magic
sword.
Parry Bonus: The Defensive Mode of fighting developed by H. Mahler will not be used; however, the Parry Bonus shall be; for informa-
tion concerning the Defensive Mode can be found in QQG#6, page 5. Fighters are the only class to utilize this system.

This form of combat is effective against those monsters who use weapons, (Monster: humanoid creatures, centaurs, harpies etc.) It is
not a magical bonus, your basic A.C. is not changed.
Percentile Melee Bonus: Contrary to Howard’s System everybody gets melee and damage bonuses. Slashes are interpreted in our system
by linear numbers above 18. Thus, an 18/00 would become a 22 strength. The system for gaining these numbers is not the slash system
of rolling percentile dice, though the probabilities work out the same. If a natural eighteen is rolled, a die is then rolled. If it is high,
the requisite goes up one and the process is repeated. If it is low, the requisite stays at it current level. Note that, except for potions and
girdles, there can be no requisites above a 22, this includes Strength Spells. For this reason, only those strengths which refer to girdle
strengths will be given above 22.

My Initiative System: Or what I did during my Summer Vacation

by Mark Cribbs
Battle attacks go in this order:
I. Breath Attacks also Gazes
II. Missile Attacks (Manticores too)
III. Long Weapon Attacks (Spear, Halberd, 2H-Sword, Battle Axe, Morning Star, Pick, Flail, Bo, Staff, 3-Section Nun-Chukuo)
IV. Medium Weapon Attacks (Sword, Mace, Manrikigusari–WHAT, damn Tihor– Nun-Chuckuo)
V. Short Weapon Attacks (Dagger, Hand Axe, Short Sword, War hammers, Tonfa)
VI. Bodily Attacks (Feet, Hands, Claws, Bites, Touches, Stings, Tails, butts, Horns, Tenacles)
VII. Clerical
VIII. Magical
Within their phases-Breath, Missiles, Spell Attacks occur Simultaneously.

Other Attacks occur in the order of the participants Dexterity, all those whose dex is non rolled have a dexterity of 10.5

Grappling: In order to grapple one must drop their weapons first,

then one hits, unmodified, according to this formula–This is for
you Howard...
E(Attack L)2 +E(Attack Str)−E(Def L)2 +E(Def Str) =
X
If X = +X then the Def is grappled
If X=-X then the Attackers fail.
If X=0 then roll a D6
1-3 grappled,
4-6 not grappled
-X is an negative number +X is an positive number
0 is neither
E used here is summation, not expectation
L=Level
Str= Strength
Attacker= 2 in a door or corner, 3 against a wall or corridor, 4 if
surrounded. In order to break out of a grapple one rolls a D12,
if it equals his parry bonus one in any case, the Defender(Def) is
free. There is no example.
Subdual: It requires full damage without magic or missile at-
tacks.

Wandering Party Tables
Wandering Parties in the Dungeon (List A)
Use this system when a party (A) is rolled up. The leader’s level is the defining level of the party. Roll for his class as well as those of
any others in the party (as well as their levels). It is a good idea to pre-roll one party of each level that you are likely to use, and then
replace those used at your leisure.

For Thieves: All are hobbits except on a 0 a man, on a 1 a dwarf, and on a 2 an elf (on a D10).
Roll four D6 for prime requisite, with anything below a 13 becoming a 13 and 3 D6 for other reqs if needed, with no req. higher than
the prime. There is a 1/3 chance that a party will be weary in which case: add 2 to the roll for gold; each F has taken 1-4 hits/level; each
C has used 10-80% of his spells; and each MU has used 10-60% of his spells.

case roll as for a wandering party made up of fighters, with Hit Dice in place of level. These parties should be weary 1/3 of the time.
Wandering Undead (List C)
Phantom–Spectre–Wraith–Wight–Ghoul–Zombie–Skeleton
(Treat mummies as above ghouls when running parties led by mummies).
Use the same charts as for list B in order to determine the number in the party and their level; it is assumed the entry in the Monster
Table is the leader of the party. Use the chart in list A to determine monetary treasure. There is no chance for a weary party. A party of
just Phantoms or Spectres have no treasure (they can’t carry it),

Magic User System (spell points)
The following system for Magic Users was designed, for the most part, by Howard Mahler, using the original system outlined in
Greyhawk.
A Magic User, when fresh, gets a number of Energy Points E.P. per day equal to his Intelligence. The basic cost of each spell depends
on the level of the spell and the level of the Magic User:
Level of Level of MU
Spell 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19
1 8 6 5 4 3 2 2 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

9 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 8 6 5
It takes a delay melee round to prepare a spell, except for those thrown off scrolls, wands, rings, etc. Once prepared the spell may be
held for up to 10 melee rounds before being thrown. (The MU may only walk slowly while maintaining the concentration necessary to
hold the spell prepared. He may not engage in combat, or anything else which would break his concentration on this one spell.) If a spell
is prepared, but not thrown it will cost one third of the basic E.P. cost that the spell would normally have (round-off with a minimum of
1 E.P.)
Spells take effect at the end of the melee round, and are thus dealt with after the melee and regular missile fire.

MAGIC USER SYSTEM (SPELL POINTS)
While preparing a spell or throwing a spell a Magic User may be distracted. If during either of these phases he takes 10% of the amount
of hits he has left, he is distracted and the spell fails. This amount needed to distract goes up to 50% when he is reading the spell off a
scroll. If distracted while preparing, there is no E.P. cost, if distracted while throwing or holding, it counts as if he dropped it and the
cost is one third.
Certain spells, namely the Power Words and Read Magic take only one round to throw. Reading a scroll requires a Read Magic, and
thus remember to charge the E.P. cost of a 1st level spell.
There is no necessity for him to memorize a list of spells, which once thrown are forgotten, as in Men and Magic. The only restrictions
on what spell he throws are that he may not throw spells which he has been unable to learn and that the amount of spell points he has is
not exceeded.
After a full nights sleep (12 hours), a MU will recover E.P. depending on how much he’s used the day before. Use the following table:

Spell Description Additions
CHARM PERSON–Charm is a weak spell; i.e., the person is only immobilized, and the caster must concentrate.

VENTRILOQUISM–The Games Master must referee how well the spell works on his own initiative.
DETECT INVISIBLE–The caster may see invisible, though this spell does not work on Dust of Disappearance.
LEVITATE–The caster is able to control his levitation. He may throw spells while levitating.

STRENGTH–As the book spell save that it does not affect melee. Saving throw is applicable. There is a limit of 18/00 (22) strength
possible. Duration=80 minutes.
WEB–Web spells will block doors and corridors with duration as per book. They act like a missile weapon with regard to Dexterity
bonuses.
MAGIC MOUTH-Non-detectable.
PYROTECHNICS–This is non-magical and must be created from non-magical fire. The smoke will obscure vision. It is put out at the
source.
FLY–Per book with speed adjustments as walking speed.
HOLD PERSON–This is a “strong” charm. No spells may be thrown and the caster must concentrate. Damage will break control unless

DISPEL MAGIC–As per book with cone 60 x 30.
CLAIRVOYANCE & CLAIRAUDIENCE–These spells allow one to use the senses of another being, they do not permit one to simply

FIREBALL–This must be targeted as if attacking AC 9. Full damage is done to the person against whom it was targeted, one half to

Level. Fireballs destroy scrolls, if the person dies.
LIGHTNING BOLT–Lightning bolts will burn through people if they are in a line. Thus, if only partial damage is done to the first
person, the bolt will go through him and hit the next. Those who save take no damage and the bolt bends around them. If any damage is
left on a bolt and there are no more people in its path and it hits a wall, it will bounce straight back along its previous path. Those who
saved on the first path through will automatically save on the second time.
SNOWBALLS–Exactly as Fireball save that they destroy potions if the person dies.

SPELL DESCRIPTION ADDITIONS
EXPLOSIVE RUNES–They may only be thrown on paper.

SUGGESTION–You may only suggest what would normally be considered reasonable.
MONSTER SUMMONING I–You may pick your monster and have control. The monster is only present for the duration of the spell,
then he leaves taking everything of his with him. He comes with no magic save himself and leaves with nothing of yours.
POLYMORPH SELF–Allows the caster to assume the form of whatever creature he names. This will give him the movement and Armor
Class of the creature he becomes, but he retains his own hit points and attacks. He does not receive the magical or physical attacks of the
form he copies. At the end of the duration of the spell he must make his Spell Survival roll or die. Duration: 6 + level of caster melee
rounds.
POLYMORPH OTHERS–As above, but spell must be cast on someone other than caster. Gives the subject all attributes except magical
attacks and abilities. As with the above spell only living beings may be specified. Duration and Spell Survival roll as above.
PROTECTION/ENCHANTED MONSTERS, 10’ radius–Gives +2 vs. attacks and +10% on saving throws from Enchanted Monsters to
all within 10 feet at time of casting under the same restrictions as Invisibility, 10’ radius. Duration: 6 + level of caster in melee rounds.
WALL OF FIRE–Wall appears at up to the maximum range away from the caster. The wall stops wherever it touches walls or inanimate
objects. If an animate object, such as a person, is within the wall when it would appear that section of the wall which would occupy the
same space will not appear, leaving an appropriate sized hole in the wall. Note: the wall appears at a distance. It does not move once it
has appeared, except to disappear when the caster ceases to concentrate.
WALL OF ICE–Creates a zone of cold complementary in every way to a Wall of Fire. It does two dice of damage to fire using/based
creatures.
CHARM MONSTER–As with Charm Person this “weak” charm will immobilize the monster so long as the caster concentrates.
DIMENSION DOOR–Acts as a short range teleport sending either all within 10 feet of the caster or the caster alone up to 120 feet in
any direction exactly as specified at the time of casting. Anyone who is not willing to go with the caster will get a Saving Throw. A
charmed or held being will receive a Saving Throw against both the Dimension Door and the Charm/Hold (roll separately for each.) If
you appear inside someone/thing you (both) die.
WIZARD EYE–Creates an invisible ‘third’ eye which can be detached and move at the speed of an unencumbered man. It can go
anywhere it can physically fit and is under all the restrictions (and side effects) of a Homunculus as long as it is detached.
ICE STORM–Will only work outdoors. Will only affect the cubical target area even if this is above ground level.
FEAR–Remember there is a 50% chance of dropping any weapon in hand.
MONSTER SUMMONING II–As Monster Summoning I but tables 3 and 4.
TELEPORT–Moves caster instantaneously to a place he has seen or memorized previously. If he has spent less than one hour studying
his point of arrival then is a 75% chance of death. If the target area has been studied for at least one hour or is in sight there is a 10%
chance of arriving low (usually resulting in death) and a 10% chance of coming in 10 to 100 feet high (often resulting in death.) If the
caster has spent one full day studying the arrival area there is only a 1% chance of low and 4% chance of appearing 10-40 feet high.
HOLD MONSTER–A “strong” charm which can affect any creature but otherwise as a Hold Person.
TRANSMUTE ROCK TO MUD–Men in plate will sink to their waists.
WALL OF STONE–See Wall of Fire for limits on creation of wall in space occupied by objects. Duration: until battered down.
WALL OF IRON–As above. Duration: 12 melee rounds.
ANIMATE DEAD–Freshly dead human bodies become Zombies. Old bodies become Skeletons.
CONTACT HIGHER PLANES–May ask only yes or no questions. Costs 2 weeks spell points. The spell will fizzle, wasting the two
weeks spell points on the roll listed as Insanity in Book I (P lane − 3)x10%. Roll chance of knowing per Book I. If the Plane contacted
does not know it will not answer. If it does it will answer truthfully. Spell may not be used to gather personal data about living beings
(such as a character’s level).
PASS-WALL–Can only affect solid rock and iron.
CLOUDKILL–Affects creatures of fewer than five hit dice, if they fail to save (Bodily) they die. Duration: at most 6 melee rounds.

SPELL DESCRIPTION ADDITIONS
FEBBLEMIND–Remember this spell only affects MUs and is Mental Saving Throw minus 20%.
MONSTER SUMMONING III–As with two previous versions but only tables 5 and 6.
HIDE INTENT–Gives the caster two saving throws against spells such as Detect Good/Evil, ESP or other magical (or clerical) means of
discovering his intent. Duration: 6 hours.
PROTECTION/ENCHANTED MONSTERS–Gives the caster +25% on Saving Throws and +5 Armor Classes vs. attacks by Enchanted
Monsters. These include: Elementals, Golems, Invisible Stalkers, Aerial Servants, Djinns, Efreets, Homunculi, Salamanders (both Hot
and Cold), Demons, Devils, Angels, and Simulacra. It will add to other forms of protection, but will not reduce damage when hit.
Duration: 6 + level of caster in melee rounds.

Tihor Spell Targeting
Certain magical spells must by targeted against a specific opponent to have maximum effect. Fireballs and lightning bolts are particularly
good examples. The magic-users chance of successfully targeting the spell against a specific enemy is his chance to hit as against AC9
at that range with a missile weapon modified for dexterity and distance. Note that it is not influenced by the defenders Armor Type
although armor enchanted to a plus and protection rings will aid in deflection. Bracers of defense (even cursed ones) will not affect this,
nor will items/spells intended to stop/deflect ordinary missiles (e.g. Shield of Missile Repulsion, Prot./Normal missiles.)
Chance to hit is:
45% + 2% x (MU’s level) + (Dex bonus) + (Range modifier)
Range modifiers are:
Very Close (Spell radius) +20%
Close (up to 1/3 range) +10%
Medium (1/3 to 2/3 range) —
Long (2/3 to full range) -10%
If roll is made, targeting succeeds and the spell effects are computed from that origin. If the roll is failed, roll to see how the spell missed
its original target:
Roll D6: 1 means 10% left
2 means 20%
3 means 30%
4 means 10% right
5 means 20%
6 means 30%
If firing over an obstruction (ex: from second rank past the party’s front line) also roll for a high/low (=long/short) miss:
Roll D6: 1 means 10% short/low
2 means 20%
3 means 30%
4 means 10% long/high
5 means 20%
6 means 30%
All distances off target are listed as a percentage of distance to aiming point. If no aiming point is specified on the targeted being/object,
assume the center of the profile facing the spell-caster. If no height is implied by this rule, assume 4’6” above the ground. If roll is
low, measure distance down towards ground and then back towards caster along the ground. If high, measure up, the target body until
out of deflection distance or above body. If spell overshoots top of target assume that it will hit any solid object along a straight line up
to maximum range away. If no such object exists, it will describe a parabola of length twice the distance to target, height of deflection
above aiming point.

Clerical System (prayer points)
The following Clerical system was developed by Howard Mahler, with the help of members of the Princeton SGU. The system’s first
version was printed in QQG#1. We are using a slightly modified version of Howard’s May 20, ’77 revision for the convention.

Starred spells are reversed for chaotics. Neutral clerics may throw either form of starred spells, but at double the cost in ”Prayer Points”.
Neutrals may not throw: Dispel (Control) Undead, Word of Command, Portal of Justice (Injustice), and Conjure Angel (Demon).

Explanation of Spells
Spells are listed within each level in the following order. First are those new spells which have Roman Numerals after them. These
are explained first. There’s a basic effect common to spells of the same name; those with higher numbers are stronger, (cost more, and
are gotten by the cleric at higher level). Next are listed the other new spells introduced. Last are the spells from Men and Magic and
Greyhawk.
Cure (Cause) Wounds: Allows the cleric to cure (cause) wounds, depending on the level of the spell, the following number of hit points:
I 1-4, II 2-7, III 2-12, IV 3-18, V 4-24, VI all. If a full turn (10 melee rounds.) is taken to throw the spell, there is no saving throw,
otherwise there is. (May be thrown into combat). Range: 6”.
Protection/Evil (Good): This spell creates a protective sphere of 10 foot radius, which moves with the caster. In the case of neutral
beings, give them a 50% chance of completely ignoring the spell; if they do not ignore it, then treat them as if they were affected. In
the case Undead, the protection/evil is particularly effective; it will keep out those of level of spell+1 automatically, level+2 with saving
throw. In the case of evil creatures, level hit die creatures with no saving throw, and level+1 with saving throw. Beings within the sphere,
if affected, will leave as soon as possible. Those who save against the spell, will not be effected by the same level spell from the same
cleric, that day. The spell will cease to function if the caster dies, but no concentration is needed. Duration: level of caster+ 6 melee
rounds.
Dispel (Control) Undead: (May not be thrown by neutrals.) The spell affects at most (level-1)*10 hit dice of undead. It effects undead
in a 20’ radius of caster, starting with the lowest level of undead. To determine if a particular undead is affected, treat the dispel(control)
as a protection 3 levels lower (with 1/2 hit die creatures counting as 0th level.) The spell lasts for a number of hours equal to the level
of caster, as long as the undead remain within 60’ of the caster (for control). No concentration is needed, and undead under control will
not be affected by a Prot./Evil unless thrown by a Cleric of higher level than the controlling cleric. Dispell (Control) I affects up to 5
skeletons.
Bless: (may not be made permanent) Thrown on someone not in melee, it will add M to his melee bonus (hit probability), and D to his
damage bonus. The benifits are independent of class. I M=5% D=0, II M=5% D=1, III M=10% D=1, IV M=10% D=2, V M=15% D=2,
VI M=15% D=3. Duration: 6+level of caster melee rounds. Range: In direct contact.
De-Were: Depending upon the level of the spell, can turn up to a total of W levels of lycanthropes (were-creatures) back into their
humanoid form. (Note the change in attack and defense capabilities, especially the lack of need for special weapons to now hit them).
They get saving throws, but due to the specialized nature of the spell, they are worse by 4 (20%). W=(spell level*2)+1. Duration 6+level
of caster melee rounds. Area of Effect: a cone 2” long with a base of 2” radius.
Prayer: This spell lowers the saving throw of all within a 3” diameter sphere. (There’s no saving throw vs. Prayer.) For Prayer I they are
worse by 5%, for Prayer II by 10%. Duration: the melee round following the spell. Range ( for the center of the sphere) 3”.
Word of Command: (May not be thrown by neutrals) Depending upon its level, the spell will temporarily raise the charisma of the Cleric
by C, for the purpose of giving one command of appropriate alignment to beings of the cleric’s alignment. In no case will the effective
charisma exceed 19. I C=3, II C=6, III C=9, IV C=12.
Consecrate: Each cleric may consecrate one area to his god. It takes one day. All but followers of that god, will get worse saving
throws. (There’s no saving throw vs. Consecrate) It lasts until dispelled, at which point the cleric may consecrate the same or a new area.
Consecrate I gives -10% in an area of up to 1000 square feet, and up to 30’ high. Consecrate II gives -20% in an area of up to 10,000 sq.
ft., up to 100’ high.
Detect Were: Usable vs. one creature. No saving throw vs. Range: 10”.
Water Walking/Self: May only be cast on oneself. Duration: 6+level of caster melee rounds.
Detect Disease: Will also tell which type of disease. Range: 10”. Duration: 1 full turn.
Detect Poison: Similar to above.
Detect Water: May only be used above ground. Will give the direction of the nearest substantial body of fresh (as opposed to salt) water.
Range: 1 mile per level of caster.
Detect Possession: Detects the presence of a second mind in a body. It will also detect if the single mind in a body is not the original,
but in that case give two chances to save. Range: 10”.

EXPLANATION OF SPELLS
Cure Deafness, Paralysis, Feeblemind, Insanity: Always works. Must be in direct contact for a full turn.
Fire, Cold Resistance: As the potion (Immunity to normal fire and the wall of fire spell. +2 to saving throws vs. Fireballs and Dragons
Breath involving fire; -1 to each die of fire damage and Balrog immolation.) Dur: 6+level of caster rds. Range: 1” (replace fire w. cold
for cold resistance)
Suspend Animation Self, Others: May only be cast on oneself. (/Others may be cast on anyone, subject to saving throw.) Your body will
be indistinguishable from a dead body to all except a clerical type of level at least equal to that of caster. (Undead will not detect life
force). Caster specifies duration at the time of casting. Maximum duration is a number of full turns equal to the caster’s level.
Detect Food: Food is here taken to mean something that contains some nutritional value, be it alive or dead, plant or animal. Otherwise
similar to the Detect Water spell.
Water Walking/Others: Similar to /Self.
Create Air: Allows the cleric to create enough air for one man to breathe for 6 full turns.
Fire, Cold Resistance 10’ rad.: Same effects as normal resistance, except applies to anyone within 10’ of caster. (Moves with, and dies
with, the caster.)
Convert Sword: It is cast on swords of (assumed) different alignment from the cleric. It will never work on a sword which functions as
a Holy or Anti-Holy sword (or Sacred or Anti-Sacred). A sword may not be converted from lawful to chaotic or vice versa, in one step.
(You must first convert it to neutral.) To determine success, take the greater of the ego of the sword and 7; if you beat that with 2d6 then
you succeed. If you succeed, then the ego of the sword increases to the greater of 7 and the original ego +1. If you fail, it increases to
the greater of 7 and the original ego+2. It takes a full day to convert a sword.
Portal of Justice (Injustice): (Neither form may be thrown by neutrals.) When thrown on a doorway, archway, etc., any chaotic (lawful)
being will have a blue glow around them as they pass through. (No saving throw vs.) Duration: 1/2 hour per level of the caster. Range:
1”.
Both Raise Dead and Commune expend the points they cost for one full week when used.
Convert: It may be thrown on a humanoid in an attempt to change his alignment to that of the cleric. If the change is from chaotic to
lawful or vice versa, then he gets two chances to make his saving throw. Clerics, Paladins, Rangers, etc., are immune. Range: 4”.
Permanent: Similar to the spell for MU’s, but is applicable to clerical rather than MU spells. Also this spell may not be thrown an any
creature, save that the cleric may throw one permanent on himself.
Conjure Angel: (Demon) (This may not be thrown in either form by neutrals.) One will appear, and serve the caster for a number of full
turns equal to his level minus 13. Conjured Angels or Demons may not gate in others of their kind. They will return to from whence
they came, when the spell ends or the caster dies. The strength of the conjured being depends on the level of the caster. At 16th level it
will be Type I, at 18th Type II, at 20th Type III, etc. (See Eldritch Wizardry for the Demons.)
A Cleric is assumed to know all spells that he is able to throw. (Those for which Prayer Point costs are given) Clerical spells have no
preparation round, and go into effect before Magic spells thrown the same round. In order to distract a cleric from throwing a spell, it
is necessary to give him 20% of his remaining hits during the round he is throwing the spell. For a Scroll this rises to 50%, and Scrolls
require no Prayer Points to read.

The Tihor Saving Throw System
A character’s saving throw is computed by summing the base value for his level, his class bonus, his racial bonus, and his luck bonus
(luck bonuses will not be used during the convention). This value is further modified by any protection items carried, at the rate of 5x
the total plus of the protection item(s). To save, a character must roll a number less than or equal to his saving throw on percentile dice.
All characters take no. damage on a roll of 00. There is at most a 95% chance of saving.

Thieving Tables
While we are using the Greyhawk rules for thieves, three non-Greyhawk tables will be used. Note in particular that a thief must first find
a trap on the table below, and then remove it using the table in Greyhawk. Treat panels as doors below.

Each character may make only one attempt to find or be shown a given trap or secret door or panel per day. Only someone who has
previously found the door, panel, or trap may attempt to show it to someone.
Invisible Thieves: While a thief with an invisibility ring must become visible when attacking, he may open doors, panels, climb walls,
etc., while invisible. After stabbing someone from behind (and receiving his multiple damage bonus,) any more attacks upon that person
will not receive the damage multiple, as the “suprise” has worn off. The attacks will only be +10% (+2) from the rear, not +20% (+4)
like the first one. Should the thief decide to “blink out” immediately after his stab, and if the opponent decides to swing at him, his swing
will be at -10% (-2) instead of the customary -20% (-4) for swinging at an invisible opponent.
Thieves may use daggers, swords (if there is no racial prohibition,) and all missile weapons. Multiple damage is only received with
daggers.

For any curse you so desire Robert West’s mind is so perverse that there is not the need to develop one’s own curse system; just roll
percentile dice for random curses or if you are devious pick your own.
% die Curse
01-05 Monster(s) from table 1-12(roll a D12) attack(s) by surprise.
06-09 Monster(s) from table(s) relevant to area(as wandering monster) attack by surprise.
10-12 Monster(s) from victim’s own table attack(s) by surprise.
13-14 Roll a D12 to determine possibility listed above, but curse will be delayed until the next time character( or party) is in battle.
15 A demon type 1-4 attacks by surprise.
16-19 One-on-one arena battle vs. monster relevant to area (roll as wandering monster).
20-22 As above, but random monster from victim’s own table.
23-24 As above, but vs. a duplicate of victim per mirror of opposition.
25 Roll a D9+15 to get type of arena duel, but curse is delayed until victim(or party) is in next battle.
26-28 A random magical item is lost.
29-30 A random magical item becomes dud/cursed.
31-32 You will fall subject to spells you are immune to by level.
33 You will never make a saving throw, unless(of course) you don’t want to!
34 Take half damage from spoken fireballs, lightning, etc.
35 Scroll of spells–but spells will back-fire. If there is no straightforward backfire, take 6 hits/spell level from explosion.
36 Same as above but applies to all scrolls used.
37 All cures on victim will become causes.
38 -3 to AC and saving throws.
39 Prime Requisite becomes 3.
40 Constitution becomes 3, with a retroactive -1 on each hit die.
41 Charisma becomes 3.
42 Luck becomes 3(-15% to saving throw). Give other appropriate duds.
43 -1 to -3 On all requisites.
44 Lose one experience level permanently.
45 Lose all benefits of race(no effect on humans); or suffer disadvantages of all non-human races.
46 Teleport 5000’ above ground, take 24D6(unless fly, levitate, etc.).
47 Teleport to the most dangerous place in dungeon.
48 Teleport to a remote region(character lost in 1 week w/o teleport.).
49 Teleport to Mars.(Lost in 1 turn w/o teleport).
50 Teleport 1 mile out in sea,if you make it to shore you are safe.
51 Lose the ability to employ spells or magical items.
52 The character becomes a magic drainer. He can neither use magic nor be affected by it. Remove Curse will not work. Any
item coming in contact with him will lose all magical properties.
53 All opponents will save vs. all magical attacks or effects which have a saving throw.
54 If a fighter, his sword will change alignment. If he has no magic sword he will lose all fighter bonuses.
If a MU, he will forget 1 spell of highest level known and take +4D6 damage.
If a cleric, all his cures will become causes and vice verse. This will occur except when employed vs. an enemy/friend.
If a thief, he will lose one ability: 1) mult. damage; 2)climb walls; 3)pick locks; 4)remove traps; 5)move silently and
pickpocket; 6) hide in shadows.
55 Assume gaseous form. Retain cohesion if you make your Spell Survival roll.
56 Turn to water. Can not control movement, but will retain cohesion if you make Spell Survival. Will return to human form
(possibly dead) after one hour. Of course if you fail the Spell Survival roll the body will be a bloody mess.
57 Character will have a 20% chance each time he is involved in melee of going berserk, even if he is not personally attacked
or attacking.
58 Polymorph into a normal-sized 1) ant, 2) beetle, 3) wasp, 4) cockroach.
59 Polymorph as above but into the giant form of the insect, which will attack the party with surprise.
60 Turn to stone.

THE ROBERT WEST CURSE SYSTEM
% die Curse
61 Paralyzed until curse REMOVED.
62 Insanity for one hour (see INSANITY TABLE.)
63 Contract Advanced Leprosy (see Mummies.) In addition to the CURE DISEASE a REMOVE CURSE is needed or the
disease will recur in 1-4 hours.
64 Victim will fall asleep for 20 - Wisdom in hours (minimum of one hour.) After awakening, until a REMOVE CURSE is
done victim will remember dreams of great pleasures, and will go to sleep in order to regain these dreams in any stress
situation, unless a Spiritual Saving Throw is made.
65 Victim will contract meningitis–fall asleep in one hour and die in Constitution hours unless a CURE DISEASE is thrown.
Once cured a REMOVE CURSE must be thrown or the disease will recur in 12 hours. If the disease recurs the number of
hours that the victim suffered previously is counted off his constitution when determining how long until the victim dies.
66 A random limb (roll as for a Sword of Sharpness) will rot and fall off in one day unless a REMOVE CURSE is thrown.
Each CURE DISEASE will increase the time limit by 6 hours.
67 Blindness as Power Word: BLIND.
68 Deafness as Power Word: BLIND: -10% to hit, 50% chance of spell not going off against anyone.
69 Dumbness per Power Word: BLIND. No power words. Player can not speak.
70 Anestethized as Power Word: BLIND. Reduce chance to hit by 50%. Drawing a weapon takes 4 rounds. Thievish abilities
reduce to nonthief levels for thieves, eliminated for non-thieves. PLAYER IS UNAWARE OF THE NUMBER OF HITS
HE HAS TAKEN.
71 Lose sense of smell as Power-Word: BLIND.
72 Character acquires a malodorous disease which reduces charisma by 6 points (in dungeon negotiations this effects any
negotiator if victim is nearby) and attracts monsters (two rolls per turn.)
73 Anyone or thing not with the victim at the time the curse takes effect will hate the victim as his worst enemy and will attack
on sight unless the observer is within 10 feet of a holy or sacred sword, or makes his Spiritual Saving Throw.
74 Victim begins to shrink at the geometric rate of 50% per full turn. A growth potion or a GROWTH ANIMALS spell will
stop this for 1 turn. After 40 turns the victim dies and the body is gone.
75 The victim grows to 3 times normal height with no increase in Strength or attack. After every hour Spell Survival must be
rolled or he collapses under his own weight. Any blow from a heavy weapon that does 10% of the character’s total hits has
a 50% chance of breaking his weakened leg bones.
76 Ennervation. Treat character as if he had just been raised. Character has 5% of hit points, spell or prayer points, carrying
capacity, and 5% of his normal chance to hit. This increases by 5% each day thereafter for one week and 10% for each day
the second week until the character is fully restored after the 14th day. Not affected by a REMOVE CURSE.
77 Slow all movement and attack by 50%.
78 Acquire “Midas’ Touch”. Everything touched(including dragons) will become gold for the day. At the end of this time
these things will turn to lead.
79 Victim will suffer the number of hits equal to any he deals to an opponent.
80 Normal Mahler poison, no initial saving throw. Remove Curse will not work.
81 Mahler poison, no initial saving throw. If save after 20 rounds or Neutralize Poison, new saving throw must be made after
1 hour, or continue taking damage.
82 Polymorph into a toad. Remove Curse will have no effect but a Dispel Magic will work as vs. a MU20.
83 Character suffers effects of Dust of Appearance.
84 Character suffers twice damage from all attacks(roll twice).
85 All attacks by character do half damage.
86 Character becomes mortally afraid of one type of monster. Unless a morale check(saving throw vs. spiritual) is made upon
encountering such a monster, the character will react as per Fear spell. Types: 1)Giant class; 2)Undead; 3)Flying creatures;
4)Giant insects or animals; 5)Cat types; 6)Dog types; 7)clean-up crew.
87 As above, but unless rationality check(S.T. vs. spiritual) is made, character will go berserk.
88 Roll a wandering monster from the Nth level of the dungeon where N is the level of the victim. Such a monster will hit on
all attacks(unless fighting at a minus) doing maximum damage. The victim will never save vs. an offensive spell and always
save vs. a defensive spell while fighting this monster.
89 Character will, on a roll of six, be monster summoned by a “Wandering Party” to battle a “Wandering Monster”. Note
that the party must be of sufficient level for the MU to summon the victim. Roll every hour until Remove Curse. Being
summoned does not remove the curse.

THE ROBERT WEST CURSE SYSTEM
90 Change class.
91 Change alignment per Helm of Law/Chaos.
92 Character will attract monsters on a roll of 5 as well as 6.
93 Character will be surprised thrice as often as normal.
94 “Curse of the Vampire”–the character may never enter a dwelling(i.e. cross a threshold)unless invited in.
95 Character must save or be possessed by an evil demon or MU who will try to destroy the party by attacking with surprise
and at a great advantage. The demon may use spells regardless of the class he is impersonating.
96 Character will be Pensive per Cap of that name.
97 Character will be placed under a Geas or Quest.
98 Time Stop for 2-5 hours.
99-00 Roll twice.

Resistances
Many magical items are listed as Resistance (*). This denotes that they convey some degree of protection, similar to the rings or clerical
spells. Generally they give +10% (+2) on saving throws and -1 point per die of damage where relevant.
01-40 Fire Resistance
41-70 Cold Resistance
71-90 Lightning Resistance
91-95 Crushing Resistance
96-97 Life Energy Drain Resistance
98 Resistance to Demonic Attacks
99 Scrying Resistance
00 Roll twice (or as Protection Scroll)
FIRE, COLD, and LIGHTNING Resistances as +10% and -1 pip per die for magical Fire, Cold, or Lightning, but convey complete
immunity to respectively, ordinary fire, ordinary cold, or normal electrical shocks.
CRUSHING Resistance is intended only to effect being crushed by massive quantities of earth and rock, and will not provide protection
against crushing weapons such as a mace.
LIFE ENERGY DRAIN Resistance gives +10% to the Spiritual Saving throw against Life Energry drains by the Undead.
RESISTANCE TO DEMONIC ATTACKS provides +10% Spiritual Saving Throw and -1 pip/die of damage when attacked by Demons,
Devils, or similar beings.
SCRYING Resistance gives a +10% Mental Saving Throw against any form of scrying (magical surveillance) such as ESP, Clairvoyance,
Crystal Balls, or magical Mirrors.
On a roll of 00 either give two rerolls adding pluses or roll on the scroll table. If a Protection Scroll is rolled give the corresponding
Resistance. If any other scroll is rolled the Resistance is against one specific magical or clerical spell, roll as for a scroll of one spell.
WHEREVER ELSE (*) IS USED

The symbol (*) is used to denote ”Roll among possibilities.” Thus a Sword +1, +3 vs. Dragons (*) will have its special +3, +3 vs. only
one kind (color) of dragons which should be determined by rolling randomly among the dragons of appropriate alignment in proportion
to the number existing in the area where the sword was forged to be used.

Explanations of Magic Items
Swords
+1, Life Drinking - This sword is always of Chaotic nature. When a hit is scored the defender loses one energy level and one level is
gained by the wielder. Each time this weapon is thus used there is a 40% chance of the user becoming chaotic. (Possible modifications
include giving the victim a saving throw, having wielder gain number of experience points lost by defender, having sword be effective
only against man-types.)
+1, Equalizing - This sword acts much like the sword of Life Drinking but has the following differences: It may be of any alignment.
When a hit is scored the person of higher level (defender or wielder) loses a level and the person of lower level gains one. A saving
throw is always given the higher level character and the sword is only effective against man-types.
Cancellation - This sword acts as a rod of cancellation, neutralizing all magical items it hits(other swords, armor, etc.). Items (especially
intelligent swords and axes) get saving throws if applicable.
+1, Metal Cleaving - This sword acts as a basic +1 sword against flesh and leather armor but has the ability to split (and thus ruin) magic
armor and swords, as well as any other metal. If the wearer of armor or wielder of sword is hit his items take no damage, but if he is not
hit give the armor or sword a chance to be hit (and thus destroyed). The sword acts as +3 vs. metal. Treat armor as having its own armor
class (plain plate is AC 3, a plain shield AC 4, chain AC 5, +2 plate is AC 1, a plain sword AC 2, a +2 sword is AC 0, etc.). The sword
is also +5 vs. iron golems and rust monsters and is not affected by the latter. Other metal is affected proportionally.
+1, +2 vs. Shapechangers - Shapechangers include all Weres, and anything or anyone utilizing a polymorph or shapechange.
+1, +2 vs. Mu’s & Enchanted Monsters - Enchanted monsters include Elementals, Golems, Invisible Stalkers, Aerial Servants, Djinns,
Efreets, Homunculi, Salamanders (hot and cold), Demons, Angels, and Simulacra. (i.e. things that can be summoned or conjured, for
the most part).
+1, Locate Object - This sword is a normal +1 sword, with the additional ability to cast the Magical spell Locate Object once per day.
+1, +3 vs. Trolls - Against Trolls, including Cave Trolls, this +1 sword becomes +3 in both melee and damage.
+1, +3 vs. Clerics - Same as above, except vs. Clerics and Warrior Priests.
+1 ,+2 vs. Trolls +3 vs. Undead - +2/+2 vs. Trolls and Cave Trolls, +3/+3 vs. Undead, including Skeletons, Zombies, Ghouls Whites,
Wraiths, Spectres, Mummies, Phantoms, Vampires, and up.
+1, +2 vs. Flyers, +3 vs. Ents - Flyers include any creature with the innate ability for winged flight.
+1, 2-8 wishes - This sword functions as a normal +1 Sword, except that the holder may use 2-8 wishes, as per the Greyhawk wish ring
wishes. These wishes should be limited, say, to wild card spells.
+1, Cursed - Can not be put down without a successful Remove Curse spell, and forces the holder to attack all monsters.
+1, Sharpness - This sword is a plus 1 sword, except when in the hands of a Paladin. When wielded by a Paladin, on a score 20% better
than needed to hit, and always or 90% or better, it severs a random limb (including neck). (See note below.)
+1, +3 vs. Dragons - +3 vs. random type of dragon.
+2 - +2 melee bonus.
+2, Charm Person - A normal +2 sword, except that the wielder may cast from 1-3 Charm Person spells per day.
+2, Nine-step draining - The first time this sword scores a 20 on hitting (Parker system), or 96% (Mahler), it drains one level. The next
time it drains 2, then 3, thru 9. After draining 9 levels the sword becomes a normal +2 sword permanently.
+2, Energy Level Drainer - On a critical hit, this sword drains one level from its opponent (subject to saving throw).
+2, Dragon Slaying - Does 4-40 points of damage against a random type of dragon. If a mission sword, its mission will always be against
that type of dragon.
-2, Cursed - This -2 sword forces the wielder to attack all monsters as with the +1 Cursed Sword. A Remove Curse or Wish (see Sword

EXPLANATIONS OF MAGIC ITEMS SWORDS
+1, 2-8 Wishes above) must be applied before it can be put down. To make this item more entertaining it should probably be given
several powers (high Intelligence).
+2 Vorpal - On a roll of 10% above the basic score to hit or 86% or above in any case it will sever a random limb, first the neck, then any
other limb remaining if the fighter severed can continue to fight. It acts as a Holy Sword in the hands of a Paladin. (See note below.)
+3 - Adds 15% to one’s chance of hitting.
+3, +5 vs. Cold Creatures - This sword adds 15% to hitting probability, except when attacking Cold Creatures (Arctic Wolves, Snowcats,
etc.)
+3, +5 vs. Heat Creatures - Same as above, except vs. Heat creatures
+3, +5 vs. Earth - Same as above, except vs. Earth Creatures (Earth Elementals, Stone and Hill Giants, Dwarves, etc.)
+3, +5 vs. Air - As above, except against “flyers”.
+3, Dancing - After fighting continuously in melee for three rounds, the sword will fight on just as if it was being wielded, for three
rounds, at which time it must be picked up again. The cycle may be continued indefinitely.
+4, and +5 - Add 20% and 25% to hitting percentage, respectively.
Slaying - Acts as a dragon slaying sword, except against one particular random rolled creature.
Holy Sword - Provides complete anti-magic shell within 10’ of wielder (if wielded by a Paladin), but only up to a certain level of spell.
(see table for spell level)
Sacred Sword - As above, but used by Rangers vs. Clerical spells.
Mage Sword - A sword which may be wielded by a Magic User.
Sword Notes - At Dungeon master’s discretion, Vorpal blades and Swords of Sharpness may only sever limbs on a “critical hit”. Charac-
ters may pick up any sword (suffering d6 of damage per difference in alignment, double for Holy and Sacred), but may only use abilities
of a sword in their alignment. (The plus inherent in a sword may be used by anyone.) Note that the abilities listed above are independent
of abilities a sword may possess as a result of its intelligence.

EXPLANATIONS OF MAGIC ITEMS ARMOR/SHIELDS
Paladin’s Armor - This is the only aligned armor being either Lawful or chaotic, hits taken by differing alignments being the same as
swords. The armor acts as simple +2 unless worn by a Paladin, in which case it gains the following powers: the armor may be made to
glow with a bright light giving -3 to opponent’s morale dice, dispelling shadows, turning trolls to stone, temporarily blinding opponents
of less than three dice. The armor also increases morale of allies by 3, and adds 2 to the paladins effective charisma.
Paladin’s Shield - This is the only aligned shield, behaving in all ways as a lawful or chaotic sword in respect to giving damage or
controlling wielder. (It has intelligence and ego). It acts as a +2 shield, but when worn by a paladin it adds 1 to his effective charisma,
-1 to morale dice of opponents, and will change its face to display any emblem or emblazoning (i.e. the Paladin’s). It can also produce
a blinding light (enveloping darkness) causing all within it to fight at -1 (-5%) if of opposed alignment or leaning and facing other than
away from the paladin. The light can also be channeled into a beam (target as a spell) which will blind an evil (good) opponent (-50%
saving throw) and do 4D6 damage (ST-10%). Blindness from shield lasts 2D8 Melee rounds.
Ranger’s Armor - This is unaligned leather armor which when worn by a Ranger has the virtue of permitting him full tracking, movement
and spell casting abilities combined with protection equal to AC 2 (w/shield, AC3 w/o).
Ranger’s Shield - This unaligned shield permits full spell casting abilities when used by a Ranger. It may carry a plus.
Armor of Etherealness - As per book. (Greyhawk p.47)
Shield of Missile Deflection - This shield, above and beyond its normal plus, has a plus 2 bonus against missiles.
Shield of Missile Attraction - As per book. (Greyhawk p. 47)
Shield of Withering - When grasped, this shield causes the arm of the grasper to wither and fall off if saving throw is failed. If throw is
made, the shield will act as any other of the magic shields and benefit the user permanently (he need never make his saving throw again
because of the shield, but others who may grasp it are in danger).
Shield of Throwing - Besides acting as a standard +1 shield, this item may be thrown, and owing to its sharp edge it causes 1-10 hits if
it hits. Against leather of less (AC7) the shield has a 10% chance of severing the neck of the victim (i.e. on a 91 to 00). The shield has a
90% chance of returning to the thrower, who during that melee round may use another weapon to fight (although without the protection
of the shield).
Shield of Reflection - Both sides of this shield are polished to such brilliance that Medusae, vampires, Catoblepas, amphisbaenae, etc,
become victims of their own stares. The shield is also excellent for use as a reflection signaler outdoors.
Shield of the Prophet - This aligned shield permits Clerics to throw spells while wielding it. When used hy a Prophet of the correct
religion, it has other abilities. This shield may have a plus.

that on a re-action roll of 2 (on 2d6) the monster will attack the user.
Figurines of the Gods - There are as many different types of these figurines as there are gods. Possession of one of these figurines by a
God’s follower increases his divine intervention call by 2-12%, and decreases retribution roll by 3-18%. Note that any character may be
the follower of only one God which he picks when he reaches second level and he may not change gods unless he changes alignment. If
touched by anyone other than a follower of the God, these figurines cause damage depending upon the alignment, following and nature
of the person.

Figurine of Ego Switch - The person who picks this up finds his mind inside the figurine, while the ego that was in the figurine is now
in the body. (No saving throw vs. this). Roll as you normally would on that level of the dungeon, in order to determine the human type
the ego belonged to. Take particular note that the ego could be of any alignment or level. (Even a lawful who had been trapped in there
for a long time, would be willing to let someone else take his turn at it). Now the person trapped in there can switch places with anyone
new who touches the figurine. The one thing to remember is that the ego that had been in the figurine has no axe of his own to grind,
although he may, depending on his alignment, not want anyone else to find out what happened, and thus may not want anyone else to
touch the figurine.

Necklace of Pearls - This necklace is made of one of each of the pearls listed in Blackmoor.

deafness, harpy’s song, lamia’s whistle, etc.
Gauntlets of Strangulation - These gauntlets act like gauntlets of ogre power, but in stress situations there is a 30% chance that they will
force the wearer to attack and attempt to strangle a member of his own party. Strangulation can be stopped only by killing wearer; sleep

Strangler’s Gloves - Will strangle an opponent in 1 1/2 minutes, or 3 melee rounds, and may not be removed except as breaking a wizard
lock. (Killing the user does not remove the gloves.) Anyone attempting to remove the gloves, except the person being strangled, the
person strangling, or a Magic-User throwing a knock, will have a 50% chance of breaking the victim’s neck. Note that the user may only
stop strangling someone if he rolls to break a wizard lock, and may only pull his hands out of the gloves while strangling someone by
risking a 50% chance of breaking his fingers (-10 dex). Any weapon used while wearing the gloves will be -1 on damage.

Girdle of Mage Binding - Prevents a magic-user from throwing spells and drains all his spell points into itself, where it may be used in
conjunction with Mage Chain to power magical devices. Requires a Remove Curse to remove,
Girdle of Power Storage - Can be removed and still store spell points, but on as many as the magic-user has.
Note: Under a constant spell point system (i.e. Mahler as opposed to Tihor), if a higher level magic-user puts on a girdle filled by a
lower level magic-user, the spell points stored are reduced by the ratio of their levels.
Girdle of Protection - As per Bracers of Protection, but in addition protects the genitals from radiation.
Reducing Girdle - Causes wearer to lose weight down to what is healthy for his size.

rope, and will strangle on a critical, but if used this way by an un-trained person, will have a 1/3 chance of returning on the user.
Mirrors
Mirror of Holding - Magic items are not reflected by this mirror, making identification easy, If, however, the magic item is touched to
the mirror, it disappears from the holder and appears in the mirror. If the same person who placed the item in the mirror touches it again,
he regains possession of the item. No other person may regain it. As with a bag of holding, the items are in another dimension and are
trapped there if the mirror is smashed unless another such mirror is found.

ability is usable once per month.

“dudout” per usage, as with its big brother the Book of Infinite Spells.
Book of One Spell - As above but for one magic-user spell.
Deck of Amberian Trumpts - This will appear to be a normal deck of cards in all respects (as do all decks). It will however have either
1, 2, 4, 6 picks (roll D4.) When a card is drawn it will have a portrait of the person who drew it. This is now his card. If two characters
have cards with each others pictures on them they may talk to each other through the cards while they are within 10” by holding up the
card and concentrating on the picture of the person to be contacted on it. If the other person has the card on him but not out he will get
a sense that someone is trying to contact him. If both persons possessing the cards are willing one can draw the other through to him.
There is no chance of error with this method of teleportation. (These are a much weaker version of the cards from Zelazny’s Amber
series.
Deck of a Few Things - Deck of 8 cards, total of 4 picks, at most one per person. The card taken must be returned to the deck before

level of picker=table of monster). The monster has complete surprise.

minutes).
Cursed Decks: These are similar to regular decks of the same name except that the first pick forces you to continue picking until all
picks are gone. Each pick takes one melee round, and you cannot explain what is going on as you pick. (Others may not like you taking
all the picks but they cannot talk you out of it. Sleep or death, however, will probably stop the picker).
Special Decks: These are similar to regular decks of the same name except that one person may take as many of the available picks as
he wants, rather than being restricted to one pick. (Wise guys can try to pretend that this is a cursed deck).

Mace of Disruption - Dispels undead, on a hit, as a cleric of 8th level. (per Men and Magic).

the “black breath” which is a quickly spreading deterioration of body and spirit, the victim losing one point of strength per ten m.r. until
the victim is down to 3, whereafter he has one day of life left, being totally immobile. The part of the body struck by the mace (if a
limb) becomes immobilized immediately. Cure may be effected only by a patriarch, 10th level paladin or 9th level ranger. If athelas is
used, curer may be two levels lower. Those killed by black breath may not be resurrected. Any man-type who grasps the mace suffers
the same as a hit.
Mace of Return - Known as “Casey’s Bat” this mace not only makes a handy weapon but can be used to bat a fireball (or snowball) back
toward thrower. The bat never misses and it functions even during surprise rounds (alternatively, it may be made to miss the first three
times).
Mace of Healing - When wielded by a cleric this mace allows him to cure as many hits on his fellows as he has caused with his mace
during that day above and beyond any he may normally cure.
Warhammers

man types by it per month. The killed must be killed by it single handedly, and it gains levels by experience gained through kills. It is

level, etc. It will take victims of wielders own party if no others can be found.
Spears/Javelins

flight. Note that this javelin may be attracted toward fire and, for instance, might pass by an ogre to hit a balrog. It has no bonus vs.
reptiles and giant insects and is -5 vs. cold-based creatures. This missile is non-flammable. As with all javelins it must be thrown to be
effective.
Cold-Seeking Javelin - The opposite of the above, this javelin is +5 vs. cold creatures and -5 vs. fire. It is not damaged by cold.

EXPLANATIONS OF MAGIC ITEMS ARROWS/QUARRELS
De-Were Spear - When any lycanthrope is hit by this spear, it is returned to its human form for 10 melee rounds. The spear is also
effective against any creature which has changed shape such as dopplegangers and polymorphed creatures. The spear also does its
standard damage.
Light-Seeking Javelin - When thrown this javelin will head toward the nearest source of natural daylight at 9”.
Spear of Revenge - For every hit caused by this spear, the wielder receives a like number. These hits need not come simultaneously,
making it difficult to ascertain the nature of the spear.
Arrows/Quarrels
Arrow (Quarrel) of many shots - When fired, this arrow splits into 2-7 pieces, each with its own chance of hitting, each doing +1 (2-7)
points of damage, and all going after a single target. When the pieces are brought together the arrow reforms.
Cupid’s Arrow (Quarrel) - This arrow is a +1 arrow which, when it hits, causes the victim to become the tireless follower of the archer
if he fails to save vs. poison. Usable once.
Cursed Arrow - When fired, this arrow will hit a member of the archer’s own party, most likely the one in front of him.
Black Arrow of Life Draining (Quarrel) - This +1 arrow drains one life energy level from victim if it hits. Usable once.
Flaming Arrow (Quarrel) - When fired, this arrow burst into flame, doing triple damage to undead, double damage to trolls. Hit proba-
bility is +1, +2 vs. trolls and +3 vs. undead.
Enchanted Arrow (Quarrel) - This arrow will always hit non-magically armored opponents or non-enchanted monsters. Against others
it has +3 hit probability.
Arrow (Quarrel) of Doom - When made, these white arrows are cursed, ()see West curse system), and when hit by one, the victim is
treated as having read a scroll with the prescribed curse.
Arrow (Quarrel) of the Forest - When fired in the forest, this .arrow +1 will fly around trees in its path to hit its target. It is +2 when fired
by elves or Rangers.
Arrow (Quarrel) of Death - Being hit by this arrow is equivalent to having a high level finger of death thrown at you. One use.
Arrow (Quarrel) of Illumination - Upon firing this arrow generates a continual light spell. One use.
Arrow (Quarrel) of Entanglement - Generates a Web, as in the spell, upon hitting.
Arrow (Quarrel) of Tracking - Once aimed at someone, the arrow will follow him as closely as possible once fired.
Daggers
-2, Poisoned - This dagger has -2 to hit, but a hit with one will cause the injection of a “Mahler Type” poison. (see Cup of the Assassin)
“Ronkel” Dagger - Being created by the followers of Ronkel, the Grim Reaper, and anyone killed by it shall be unresurrectable.
Opal Dagger - When dipped in poison, the dagger will absorb it, and hold it un-detectable in its hilt, injecting it into its next victim.
Must be refilled after each use.
Dagger of the Ringwraiths - May only be wielded by an Undead. Even if not slain by this dagger, a hit will cause a piece of the dagger
to break off and start burrowing towards the victim’s heart. A cure disease will keep the victim alive for one week, during which time
the wound must be purified by an Elven Patriarch, or the victim will die unresurrectably.
Winged Dagger - When thrown towards an enemy by a magic-user, this dagger will sprout wings and fight its opponent as the magic-user
himself would, until the dagger is either recalled, or hit; at which point it will drop to the ground (or if recalled, will return). Treat the
dagger as AC2 for purposes of being hit.
Cursed Dagger - Acts as a Cursed Sword (+1).
Mage Dagger - This dagger, when used by a magic-user, will store one spell which the magic-user could normally throw.

EXPLANATIONS OF MAGIC ITEMS BOWS
Bows
Elven Bow - Acts as a standard +1 bow when used by a man or hobbit, as -1 when used by a dwarf and a +3 bow when used by an elf.
The bow is also +5 vs. dwarves and ghouls.
Cursed Bow - This bow seems to be a +1 bow but arrow will hit random person 25% of the time instead of the intended victim.
Bow of Speed - This bow allows two shots per melee round and a single shot even if surprised.
Crossbows
Crossbow of the North - This crossbow needs no quarrels. When fired, it shoots an icy bolt which acts as a +3 magic arrow, +5 vs. fire
based creatures. In addition, if the bolt hits a cold-blooded creature (reptile, giant insect, etc.) the creature will be slowed to half speed
for 10 melee rounds if it fails to save vs. paralyzation.
Crossbow of the Lakes - This crossbow hurls missiles which are +2 through water. (that is, if the bow if fired under-water or if it is fired
from the air into the water). If fired in air only it is -1.

thus damage ethereal and astral beings, out of phase spiders, blinking blink dogs, etc. This crossbow uses standard missiles.
Crossbow of Many Shots - This crossbow may be used to fire three bolts at the same target.
Cursed Crossbow -As cursed bow.
Axes
Vorpal Axe - This acts as a +2 axe but in the hands of a dwarf will sever the heads of goblins, ores, hobgoblins, kobolds and gnolls if a
score of two above that required to hit is scored. Against trolls and giants the axe will sever a limb if it scores four above that needed to
hit, ogres three.
Cleaving Axe - With this axe the user may chop through 1’ of wood, 3” of stone or 1” of iron per melee round. Treat other materials
proportionally. The axe has no hit bonus and does not damage magic.
Twirling Axe - When thrown, this axe becomes a deadly spinning weapon with +3. If it fails to hit the person at whom it is aimed it will
continue on and go toward another person until it hits after which it will return to thrower, the entire attack having taken but one melee
round. In addition, if a 20 is scored the axe will sever a limb. It will also penetrate any material softer than wood, therefore if aimed at a
person wearing only leather it will always hit.
Diamonds
Greed - increases Greed of owner by six during the next period of extended rest or when deciding who will get certain treasure (especially
including the Diamond).
Egotism - increases the Ego of bear by 6 during the next stress situation, particularly a battle. He will become contemptuous of any
adversary if his Ego rises over 15 and will in general attack, using normal weapons and abilities in preference to any special abilities...
he will never call for Divine Intervention.
Explosion - Will cause any object indicated (within 12’) to explode with the force of its hit points (all beings with hit dice being evaluated
as if they had rolled the maximum possible.) It can effect only relatively small or light objects or creatures. There is 1/6 chance of the
user blowing himself up each use,
Escape - (Thief’s only) attunes to its owner and allows him to act as a thief four levels higher. One charge.

RUBIES EXPLANATIONS OF MAGIC ITEMS
Rubies
Commanding Fire - (3-18 charges) Allows a fighter the same general control over fire as a Pyrotechnics spell and the ability to create
a full fire from embers or to command a normally burning object to leap up into consuming flames or quickly gutter out, Each such
command of course uses up one charge, if the fighter is bound or gagged it uses up two charges, if both, then three charges.
Commanding Chaotic Demons - Subtract 2 from a Demon’s Saving Throw against Bind Demon, 4 if it is Chaotic.
Casting Fireballs - Allows the magic user to cast Fireball if he is currently not able, or if he can cast it, it gives him double his level in
damage dice.
Melting Metals - (Thieves only) Allows any thief to melt any metal other than truesteel at a rate of 10 GP equiv. per melee round.

will take five melee rounds.
Infravision - (Fighters, Clerics, and Thieves) Allows one of these classes to see in the dark as per the Infravision spell (1 charge/day.)
Transformation into a Monster - Changes the wielder into a monster at random (roll on the appropriate wandering monster table.) The
monster attacks the party until slain or subdued and then freed by a Dispel Magic and Remove Curse.
Fiery Death - (All) this kills the character holding it by immolation in natural fire of three plus his level in six sided dice of damage. A
ring or spell of FIRE RESISTANCE will remove the first three dice of damage.
Opals
The Shimmering Shield (All) which allows the user to raise the shimmering shield which acts as a double strength force shield (see
Greyhawk, Carnelian Cube) but can only be brought down by 100 hits from the spells listed (especially FIREBALL and LIGHTENING
BOLT) or from fighters (treat as attacking a Wall with Armor Class 0 – Note: Attacking the Shield does no damage to the people within
it unless it is first brought down. The shield is shaped like a sphere with a radius of five feet around the wielder, thus he alone can move
at his normal speed, while a second person would reduce the speed to half the lower of their speeds, and a third would totally immobilize
them all.
The Polychromatic Illusion (All) appears to be a Shield as above by is in fact just an illusion of one and any damage done to it is
transmitted directly to the wielder.
The Arena of Death (All) also appears to raise the Shield but this shield is in fact a double shield, the outer one the actual Shimmering
Shield, and the inner one the Barrier of BirSauran, God of Arenas, Cohort of Yani, The Deathgod, who will match any within the shield
against a being of their own class equipped with their own type of arms and, of course, of the same level. If the character has higher or
equal relevant Characteristics (including hit points) the battle may be fought by the simple 1,2,3 I win, 4,5,6 You don’t lose method. If
the character wins he receives the experience and will be granted one request appropriate to the character’s level and present equipment.
Illumination (M,F,T) casts illumination equivalent to a clerical LIGHT spell. The illumination moves with the Opal and will last up to
24 hours.
Perpetual Night (M,F,T) acts as a clerical DARKNESS spell but the dark moves with the Opal and will last up to 24 hours.
Sealing Portals (M,C) will close any portal created by a OPEN PORTAL spell, the Opal above, or a normal door. The effect of the spell
is to seal the door closed and to meld the molecules along its edge so that it acts as a wizard lock plus one for fighter’s to open or a tenth
level wizard lock (or the wielder plus three, which ever is higher) for KNOCKS.
Transformation into a Monster (All) acts as the Ruby, see above.

EXPLANATIONS OF MAGIC ITEMS EMERALDS

is higher.
Controlling Plants (All) allows the wielder to control plants like the potion but will affect large plants (up to four times normal size) for
twice as many turns.
The Green God (All) adds ten per cent to divine intervention from the Green God, and doubles Retribution, or reveals any hidden or
faded writing on a scroll, parchment or in a book, this item has a 5x(IQ) per cent chance of revealing the general nature of a Magical
Book, and a 3 per cent chance of revealing its exact nature (Grevhawk books here,... it will almost always reveal the nature of ‘normal’
books found.
Icy Death (All) kills its wielder by freezing him to death doing the same basic damage as the Ruby of Fiery Death above, and with the
same effects with regard to the COLD RESISTANCE as are listed for FIRE RESISTANCE.
Transformation into a Monster (All) acts as the Ruby, see above.
Phantasmals - Allows the user to create phantasmals as the spell (which uses a charge), and to identify other phantasmals or illusions as
such (which does not.)
Sapphires
Commanding Neutral Demons (C) acts as Ruby and Emerald above, but only with regard to Neutrality instead.
Casting Lightning Bolts (M) see Ruby of Casting Fireballs.
Flaming Weapons (F,C,T) allows the wielder to flame any weapon he holds for a period of one half day (72 turns standard) per level of
the wielder.
Seeming Innocence (T) allows a Thief to convince the party that he is innocent as if he had a charisma of 19.
Obvious Guilt (T,F) makes this character appear to be obviously guilty of whatever seems most relevant at the time. It acts like a Sapphire
of Seeming Innocence, until the gem is used in earnest.
Electrocution (All) kills by lightning-like electrocution, See Ruby of Fiery Death, above.
Invisibility to Infravision (All) as name indicates, but does not effect normal vision. Effect lasts a number of turns equal to level of
wielder.
Elven Silence (All) acts as elven boots, duration in turns is equal to level of wielder.
Distant Echoes (All) seems to be the above gem of Elven Silence, but instead attracts wandering monsters by causing echoes at great
distances in the dungeon or woods, doubles wandering monster rolls, always at extreme distance.
Changing Class (All) there is only 1/6 chance of being restored to original class by an additional application. This gem normally has 1-6
charges.
Transformation into Monster (All) acts as the Ruby, see above.

FIGHTER’S GEMS EXPLANATIONS OF MAGIC ITEMS
Fighter’s Gems
Weapon +1, +2, +3 - When implanted in the base of a metal weapon adds its bonus or penalty to the weapon’s attacks. A weapon with
communicative abilities will convey that it desires the gem.
Defense +1, +2 - When emplaced in a non-magical suit of metal armor (plate or chain) or a metal shield will give its bonus to the wearer’s
defense.
Resistance - A gem of resistance will, when implanted in a suit of armor (plate of chain, as above), give one Resistance as indicated on
the table.
Pearls
Black, Gold, Red, Silver, Pink, White - Blackmoor.

Death - As a Deathstone.
Great Price - An extremely valuable pearl. Worth at least 75,000.
Ioun Stone
See Strategic Review.
Deathstone
These extremely dangerous magical gems, which appear as some other gem, were usually foully stolen, often from an Idol. Thus they
carry terrible curses against anyone who attempts to hold them or use their powers. Touching such a stone causes one D6 of damage per
level (No Saving Throw.) It is never exhausted but whenever in use (when first used and every twenty melee rounds thereafter) the curse
will attempt to take effect:
01-40 No immediate effect

41-60 Instant death (normal saving throw, unmodified by items.)
61-80 Teleport into sticky situation in history of idol, god, or worshipers. (Or one West curse.)
81-00 Lose two levels (one w/ saving throw.)
General Gem Notes: Gems normally have 3-18 charges, or under the Mahler “dudout” system just under a 10% chance that any attempt
to use a gem after the first will reveal that it has “just run out” of charges. Implanted in a mithril crown (1000 g.p. weight of mithril
required to make, encumbers 100) will reduce the “dudout” to 1% per usage. Fighter’s Gems do not have any chance of “dudout”. Note
also that
(Ed. note: yes, the whole book really does end with “Note also that”.)
