1 - Level 1 Spells

Level One Spells

Level one spells are as simple to unlock as it gets. Grab a rune, cast a rune. Each has basic but useful effects.

1.1 - Fright Trap

1.2 - Fright Pocket

1.3 - Hex Lock

1.4 - Peril Sight

1.5 - Hopscotch

1.6 - Runic Sight

1.7 - Ghost Flame

2 - Level 2 Spells

Level Two Spells

Now we're getting more interesting! An alert student of magic will no doubt have quickly noticed that from 7 unique runes, there are 21 possible unique combinations of 2 runes at a time, and thus unsurprisingly there are 21 basic spells available to cast!

Should you be missing a few in your experimentations, you could make a list of how many runes have been used in the combinations you already know, and infer the combinations of the spells you haven't discovered.... but who has time for careful understanding when there are impudent opponents to be hurled screaming into the grasping claws of the void? Read on, and all the two-rune spells will be revealed to you!

2.1 - Flashbang

2.2 - Shrieker Trap

2.3 - Power Line

2.4 - Fae Embers

2.5 - Ecto-Stalker

2.6 - Haunting Wisp

2.7 - Hungry Void

2.8 - Tell Bells

2.9 - Doppelganger

2.10 - Black Hole

3 - Level 3 Spells

Level Three Spells

Far more time consuming to uncover, there are a fairly large number of possible three rune combinations, but of course only four actual working combinations. When you cast these spells, think of the countless hours of rune combination experiments you did not have to perform in order to reveal them all. The savings in material costs alone should far outweigh the cost of this tome!

3.1 - No Fear
