/* 12/12/19 by Stratovarius Grasping Shadows Master, Shadowscape Level/School: 7th/Conjuration (Creation) Range: Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level) Area/Target: 20-ft.-radius spread Duration: 1 round/level Saving Throw: Will partial Spell Resistance: See text Stalks of shadows burst from the ground, as though desperate to escape the bonds of the earth, and immediately flail at everyone nearby. This mystery creates an area of grasping tendrils that function as the spell Evard's black tentacles (PH 228), with one additional hazard: Anyone successfully grappled by a tentacle must attempt a Will save or go blind. A successful save means the individual is safe from blinding during that particular grapple, but if she escapes and is then regrappled, she must make another saving throw. The blindness is permanent until magically cured. */ #include "shd_inc_shdfunc" #include "shd_mysthook" void main() { if(!ShadPreMystCastCode()) return; object oShadow = OBJECT_SELF; object oTarget = PRCGetSpellTargetObject(); struct mystery myst = EvaluateMystery(oShadow, oTarget, (METASHADOW_EXTEND | METASHADOW_EMPOWER | METASHADOW_MAXIMIZE)); if(myst.bCanMyst) { location lTarget = PRCGetSpellTargetLocation(); myst.fDur = 6.0 * myst.nShadowcasterLevel; if(myst.bExtend) myst.fDur *= 2; // Create AoE myst.eLink = EffectAreaOfEffect(AOE_PER_EVARDS_BLACK_TENTACLES, "shd_myst_grpshda", "shd_myst_grpshdc", "shd_myst_grpshdb"); if (myst.bIgnoreSR) myst.eLink = SupernaturalEffect(myst.eLink); ApplyEffectAtLocation(DURATION_TYPE_TEMPORARY, myst.eLink, lTarget, myst.fDur); } }
