(TFT) More new Magic (Nisibi)

[RUFFHAUS8@aol.com]

As promised, some spells developed in the Wizardwall campaign.  By the way, 
the PC Janni made it all the way through Sanctuary this time.  But like his 
counterpart in the books, he got a gruesome death.  Impaled on a halberd this 
time, with double damage from a charge.  Defending didn't help.  22 points of 
damage in one shot is hard to survive.  At least he went out in battle this 
time as opposed to being staked out across a badger's burrough.

Feel free to comment, criticize, elaborate, etc...
