Hiya folks, I have been busy again, doing goofy stuff. As such, my chara=
cter and that of another player in the HHH games here have come up with=
some really strange ideas. Here they are...have a blast...

Oh, and all of these can be found in the Hacker House "On-line Grimoire" =
of course...

(PS...if any HTML slips in, I apologize now, I am trying to edit it out a=
s I paste/copy, but who knows...)

Cord
Category : Detection
Drain : S4
Duration : Sustained
Range : Limited
Target : Object / Technology Rating (Usually a 10)
Type : Physical

Details : This spell is very simple in it's workings, it is just very dra=
matic in it's effect.  It effectively acts as a datacord between the =
caster and a given object.  There is a simple requirement however of =
this spell; that being that both the subject (caster or a voluntary tar=
get) as well as the object to be linked with, must be outfitted for dat=
ajack usage.
Hence, the spell would function as a datacord for a decker when connectin=
g to either his own cyberdeck or a matrix access port.  A rigger woul=
d be able to use it when connecting to a properly outfitted vehicle or =
a Vehicle Control Deck.  The spell gives no other benefits than these=
with one major exception.
There is no datacord and the range from the target to the connected indiv=
idual can be up to the caster's magical attribute x net success level x=
5 in meters distant from the dataport.

Live Rock
Category : Manipulation (Transformation)
Drain : S1 (15)
Duration : Permanent
Range : Touch
Target : Object Resistance Rating
Type : Physical

Details : This spell does a very nice, simple action.  It reinstates th=
e category of "Living Earth" upon any earth-type material or structure =
that has some part of it's structure touching the ground.  The amount=
of material so transformed is equal to the Magic Attribute of the cast=
er x the number of successes achieved in the casting success test in CF=
(1/8th cubic meter).  The spell in no way effects the actual barrier=
rating of the material in question.  It merely gives the appropriate=
material a "passive astral presence", such as that shared by living =
plants, living beings, and "living earth".

Switchblade
Category : Transformation Manipulation
Drain : L1
Duration : Sustained
Range : Touch
Target : Object Resistance Rating
Type : Physical

Details : This spell essentially does something very simple in nature, it=
turns either a standard Knife into a Sword (type determined at time of=
Spell Design) or it turns a Sword (any kind) into a Knife (type determ=
ined at time of Spell Design).  This version of the spell will NOT ef=
fect a magical object of any kind (foci or anchored or quickened object=
s).  The version that will work upon blades of that kind has a drain =
of S1.
