Rotes
This box: view · talk

This spell transforms the body of the mage into a swarm of insects, all driven by the mind of the caster.

Like the Life 5 spell “Greater Shapechanging”, the caster of this rote changes form without the possibility of becoming lost in his new shape. While in the shape of the swarm, the mass of the insects must stay within a 10-foot area of each other or the spell will unravel.

In combat situations, the swarm suffers little damage from conventional weaponry. Against stabbing, shooting or bashing types of attacks, the swarm is considered to have Armor 10 and any wounds suffered (regardless of source) are considered bashing. Only weapons that deal area damage (grenades, explosives, fire) have any chance of causing significant damage to the mage-swarm. Weapons of the area-effect variety deal normal damage for their type. The swarm has equal Health to that of the caster.

Offensively, attacks by the swarm ignore any mundane Defense or Armor ratings of living targets. The caster rolls Intelligence + Animal Ken + Gnosis for each attack, dealing bashing damage per success.


This is a site-wide House Rule Per site rules, the swarm will follow global Swarm mechanics.
