Cervisiomancy, from the primary Latin spelling of the word for "beer" (apparently borrowed from the Gauls).

Yeah, but -mancy is Greek, isn't it? Anyway, Cervisiomancy would be the primary divination. Pour beer on your shirt and interpret the splotches.

Essential Snacks would be a good spell.

Deny Patronage, which is capable of rending the line of inheritance at a given point.

Grogury, perhaps.

Corn-nut-copia
An optional specialty (B169: reduces "hard" to "average") of the M64 enchantment except the only "bag of pellets" it will work on is corn pellets, allowing for an indefinite supply of popcorn, corn chips, corn nuts, and other corn-related treats to be pulled out of the bag.

Like ammunition, they only last an hour once pulled out, so while they are filling and satisfying for 60 minutes, they ultimately do not contain any calories. In fact, the body will waste energy metabolizing them only to lose out on the nutrition, making them a "negative calorie" food, helping them stay lean during the cutting season after a dirty bulk.

Crushing Puissance
Similarly, also an Optional Specialty of the M65 enchantment (Hard>Average) which only works on weapons that do crushing damage, reducing the spell from Hard to Average. Bros will cast this on their fists and practice their new high-damage punches using fist bumps.

Grabbing Accuracy
Similarly, also an Optional Speciality (Hard>Average) of a M65 enchantment which instead of adding to skill of weapons under any circumstances, will only add when the weapon is used to grapple. Bros will also cast this on their hands so that they will never miss each other's palms when going for a Predator Handshake.

Manus-Turbo Magery
Mage Bros rely on their manual dexterity more than other mages, involving ELABORATE gestures. This is at base Magery 2 [25] since that is a requirement for Enchantment, used for the above 3 spells. It has the following modifiers:

Ceremonial Magery -40%
Enchantment-Only Magery -30%
Extravagant Rituals 3 -30%
One College Only (Enchantment) -40%
Stable Casting +40%
Subtle Aura +20%
The net -80% reduces the value to [5].

The premise of this thread was something that could be done light-heartedly if people were able to stay within the limits of good taste.

Some posters were not. Therefore, it is closed and infractions have been issued.

The OP is requested not to start similar threads in the future.
