Prerequisites: Spell Focus (necromancy), caster level 7th.
Benefi t: Any necromancy spell you cast can be cast instead
as a Moilian spell, dealing an extra 1d6 points of negative
energy damage +1d6 per two spell levels (+1d6 for 1st-level
spells, +2d6 for 2nd- or 3rd-level spells, and so on). If the
spell normally allows a saving throw, the target takes half
the negative energy damage on a successful save, regardless
of the outcome of the save on the spell’s normal effect.
In addition to its normal spell components, a Moilian spell
requires the creation and expenditure of a Moilian runebone—
a small human bone (often a fi nger
bone) scribed with carefully prepared arcane
markings. Only a character trained
in the Black Lore of Moil knows the
secrets of creating a runebone,
which takes 1 hour to craft and requires
special inks and powders
costing 25 gp per die of negative
energy damage to be generated.
For example, a runebone
capable of adding 3d6
points of negative
energy damage to a
spell costs 75 gp to
craft.
While the maximum
negative energy
damage dealt by a Moilian
spell is based on the
spell’s level, the actual
damage is limited by the
runebone. For example,
if a sorcerer casts fi nger
of death (a 7th-level spell,
so normally +4d6) with a
75-gp (3d6) runebone, the
spell deals only 3d6 points
of additional negative energy
damage.
A Moilian spell uses a
spell slot of the spell’s normal
level.
