FKR-Beuk! Part 3 - Wizard Schools

Magic! The Naheulbeuk tRPG uses mana points and a casting roll. I suggest getting rid of mana points and just rolling to see how casting goes. A really low rolls means you're tired and can't do more magic. A fumble means some magical catastrophe happens! A critical means the magic is even better than expected. Wizards have Schools, Priests have Gods. I'm going to quickly sum these up, and then give you the Big List of Spells, per School/God and Level. Figure out what the spells do based on the level, school and name. Sometimes I'll help.

Oh also I'm not using levels and experience right? So what you want to do is give all first level spells of the relevant school/god to your starting characters, and then treat every new level of spell casting as an advanced skill - which they must also purchase from a more powerful (and rich) magic-user if they're not a Priest. Simple! Did I mention there are a LOT of spells and some of them are redundant or simply useless? Wizards should record their own little grimoires at the table and figure out what works and what sucks in play.


COMMON MAGIC
The most popular - it's kind of the bare-bones basics. All sorts of spells are in there, a few specialist tricks, everyone knows these.

Any Level
Mind Control - adjust targets based on level

Level 1
Light Staff, Flumitor's Detections (actually a macro-spell containing specific formulaes for finding enemies in specific contexts: upstairs, downstairs, behind a door, in the dark, invisible, non-existant, in the basement, in the attic, in the fridge, under the bed, in the cursed woods, underwater, inside the beer. The list is non-exhaustive), Priaka's Examination (detect magic), Heal Light Injuries,

SUMMONING
Many people think that school is for lazy wizards, but the actual trick of summoning requires a ton of research to draw the proper arcane runes and ingredients to properly satisfy and keep control of summoned creatures. The fact that many a summoner will use these extremely precise, dangerous and time-consuming skills to get demon princes of the 8th circle to open their jars of pickles or maw their lawn may be feeding the clichés.
