[Magic] booby-trap spells

[jacobmuller]

Is there a way to leave spells set as traps triggered by passers-by, as you would a claymore by trip-wire? (yes, I'm enjoying Skyrim runes especially when my horse/ companion walks on them)

I'm guessing it's in one of the books but I've plain brain-dead not noticed it?

Despite my SF focus, the idea of using magic and calling it psionics is brilliant (Pyramid#3/?). Fireball was in there. An explosive Fireball that'll wait for your victim... bwah, ha ha.

Meta spells. So, yes. Delay, reflex, etc., are the best for that.

Link will be exceedingly useful in setting up a trap. In fact I believe the Link description includes an example using Glue and Create Fire to trap a victim in a "flaming glue hex" so the Create Fire can burn them to death :)

8( You make it sound so. vicious.

Heh... yeah, you can set some nasty traps with Link (usually the best spell for such, because of its duration).

Have you thought about changing your handle to Burno? *ig*
