Oops Drain Should be [(F/2)+1] D ... I think ... Do damaging
manipulations get +1 Drain Target Number -AND- +1 Drain Level or just +1
drain Level?

Yes. But not in the way you want it too, I think. A spell lock would
lock it onto the target of the spell ... hmmm ... could design a
different spell that affects the caster not a target ... Hmmmm ...

Manipulation Spell (again ;)
Base M Damage (M)
Area-Effect Spell (S)
Bonus Game Effect [Creates general Target Number] (D)
Bonus Game Effect [Sonic Attack-Involved/Complex] (D+1)
Damaging Manipulation is sustained (+1/D+2)
Limited Range (+2/D+1)
Physical Spell (+2/D+1)
Voluntary Subject Required (+2/D)

"The Mighty Lungs of Jett"
This spell gives the target the ability to use the Sonic Projection
critter power for as long as the spell is sustained. Also this power
inflicts damage as per "Jettmiester's Mighty Sonic Scream". Both
abilities affect targets in a cone [MA] meters in diameter at the base
and a length determined as per a spell with limited range. The diameter
may be altered as per the rules for altering the radius of a AoE spell.
When screaming (attacking), use the number of successes generated as the
skill.
Type: Physical Range: limited
Target: 4
Drain: [(F/2)+2] D Duration: Sustained

The personal version of this spell has a drain code of [(F/2)+2] S.

Okay Jett, This should work as you want it to. (spell locking will allow
you to holler like a banshee :)

much ;)
