These items are much better for conserving limited inventory space in the party, but are limited to replicating the effects of spells, rather than summoning entirely new monsters like some Figurines do.īaylor's Spell Bind (5th-level Wizard Spell) īaylor's Spell Bind does not summon a fresh monster from the aether to serve the party, or craft an illusionary one. Some items can be used multiple times to summon monsters before being expended. If you don't need them, they can be sold at Garth's Equipment Shoppe for a tidy sum. Figurines are one-use items, and thus disappear from your inventory once used to summon a monster. Some monsters can be summoned by using a Figurine item, usually found in dungeons.

THE BARDS TALE MISSED THE CRONE CODE
Summoning Spells by Class Conjurer Spell Name / Code Illusionary monsters behave just like normal monsters, they can be disbelieved by powerful foes, instantly "killing" them and removing them from the party. While most monsters in the party are flesh and blood, either being recruited or summoned by a spell or figurine, monsters summoned by Sorcerer spells are illusionary. However, if your monster dies, you can always summon another one, assuming you have the spell points! While you cannot make your monsters more durable by giving them armor like your main characters, they do benefit from Persistent Spells and Bard Songs that lower armor class, etc. This mainly is a factor in Tales of the Unknown, where you can't just make a 4th front-line fighter to fill slot zero. Having a monster also means having a fourth melee attack in Combat, which can be very useful when grinding with melee to save spell points in a dungeon. First, being at the front of the party, summoned monsters are likely to be targeted more than other party members, making it more likely for the rest of the party to survive (especially when you start facing foes that can turn you to stone, etc). Having a monster in the party gives several advantages.
6 Baylor's Spell Bind (5th-level Wizard Spell).Taking a strange route through the sewers, the heroes manage to emerge from behind Mangar's locked gates, climb up his tower against many mortal foes, and eventually slay him and his many undead and demonic servants. He wishes them well, and grants them the key to the evil wizard Mangar's tower. Overcoming all of these, they find Kylearan is not their foe, but an ally. They find themselves outside Kylearan's Tower, in which they find a maze of tricks and magical obstacles. This triggers unexplained magics which whisk our heroes across the town. It comes to life and attacks! But is no match. The eye they found earlier completes the statue. Past 4x99 berserkers and other foes, they finally reach the statue of the Mad God himself.
Portents of "once lost the eye" foreshadow what is to come.Īnd so on to the castle Harkyn, striking down the dragon statue at the gate, go our heroes. Supposedly, this will be of use in Harkyn's castle. Deep in the bowels of this unholy place, they strike down a horrible spectre, and obtain the lost stone Eye of the Mad God himself. Having encountered the Priests of the Mad God's demands at the Gran Plaz before, the heroes try out this new knowledge, and are granted access to the catacombs, teeming with vicious undead. Many scrawled hints are found, but chief among them: the name of the Mad God. After the secret handshake of ordering wine gives them access to the Wine Cellars, they find (surprise!) sewers beneath, stretching down into the earth. A group of nobodies decides no one else is going to put it to right.Īfter many setbacks, they follow a tip from a bartender (or the manual), leading them to a particular bar on Rakhir Street. Mangar casts the spell of eternal winter, slays all the known heroes, cuts Skara Brae off from the world.
