Wizards of ID--------------
Zircon Wizard
BESTIAL FURY: Cast this spell at the beginning of your turn before any player takes an Action. A player of your choice on your team gains +1 Strength until the drive ends. After this, the player has -1 Strength for the remainder of the game.
Amethyst Wizard
LIFE DRAIN: You may cast this spell at the start of any of your team turns, before any player is activated. Roll a D6 and on a 3+, choose a player on the opposition team that is Marked by a friendly player. Immediately make an Injury roll for the opposition player.
Ruby Wizard
FIREBALL: Cast this spell after your turn has ended or your kick-off to an opponent is resolved, but before your opponent’s turn begins. Place a marker on the pitch, scatter the marker 5 times. If it does not scatter off the pitch at any point, the fireball explodes as the spell; the center is where the marker is. Treat it as a standard Fireball spell after scattering.
Diamond Wizard
CHAIN LIGHTNING: You may cast this spell at the start of any of your team turns, before any player is activated. Choose a player on the opposition team; on a 3+ that player is struck by lightning. Make an Armour roll for the chosen player, and then roll a D6.
On a 1-4, the spell ends.
On a 5+, choose another model (friend or foe) within 2 squares that will be hit by the lightning. Make an Armour roll for this player.
If the lightning chained to another player, roll a D6 again to see if the spell chains to another player. Keep doing this until a 1-4 is rolled, or there are no players to chain the lightning to. A player can only be affected by this spell once, therefore it cannot be chained back onto a player it has already hit.
Emerald Wizard
GRASPING VINES: You may cast this spell at the start of any of the opposition's team turns, before any player is activated. Choose one of your standing or prone players. Roll a D6 for each opposition player next to him, on a 3+ the opposition player is grasped by vines and cannot be activated during that team turn. Additionally, the affected players have no Tackle Zones until the start of their next activation.
Spinel Wizard
BLINDING LIGHT: Cast this spell after your turn has ended or your kick-off to an opponent is resolved, but before your opponent’s turn begins. All attempts to pass, catch, or pick up the ball have an additional -1 modifier for this drive.
Sapphire Wizard
TRANSMUTATION: Cast this spell after your turn has ended or your kick-off to an opponent is resolved, but before your opponent’s turn begins. Choose one player on your team. For the remainder of this drive, any opponent moving one square or more first and then blitzing this player suffers a -1 modifier to his Strength (minimum Strength of 1) for the block attempt.
Opal Wizard
SHADOWED STEP: Cast this spell after your turn has ended. Choose any opposing player. Using all the rules for the Throw Team-Mate skill, on a roll of 3+ on a D6 the player is thrown (i.e. cannot be fumbled) to a target square that is D6 squares away in a random direction from his own square (use the scatter template). The player will need to make a landing roll as normal if they land on the pitch. |
