Magic Fang / Greater Magic Fang
Magic Fang and Greater Magic Fang will apply the buff to the caster's animal companion and any animal summons the caster may have. Further, an inert buff will be placed on the caster. If the caster enters Wildshape under the effects of this buff, the caster will also be given (Greater) Magic Fang for the duration of Wildshape. (This is for a limited time only. This spell will changed to a single target version in a hak update, but will continue to buff Wildshape forms.)

Awaken
Can be cast on any animal. It can't be used to buff Druids in Wildshape because Druids are already sentient.

Weird
Spell Level: Sorcerer / Wizard 9
Innate Level: 9
School: Illusion
Components: Verbal, Somatic
Range: Short
Area of Effect: Colossal
Duration: Instant
Save: Will and Fortitude

Targets that fail the will save are stunned for 1 round, ability drained for 1d4 strength, suffer 3d6 magic damage, and are forced to make a fortitude save. Targets that fail the fortitude save are slain.

Inferno

Spell Resistance: Yes
Description: On a failed fortitude save, the target ignites, taking 6d6 points of fire damage. The target takes 1d6 points fewer damage each round, with a minimum of 2d6 damage dealt per round, until the spell expires. Each round, the ignited target makes a reflex save to take half damage. Those who succeed on the initial fortitude save only suffer 1d4 fire damage, and the spell immediately ends.

**Note: damage progression at level 18 would be like this: 6d6 -> 5d6 -> 4d6 -> 3d6 -> 2d6 -> 2d6 -> 2d6
**Since this spell now requires a fortitude save to ignite a target, it no longer can be used against undead as a result.

[EO]

Made the following spell changes based on Ravenloft PnP books:

-Scare: This spell can affect creatures with up to 7 HD (instead of 5 HD)
-Searing Light: The Dread Realm gives certain advantages to undead creatures. In Ravenloft, undead creatures can make a Will save for half damage.
-Ray of Enfeeblement: Duration was changed from 1 rounds/level to 2 rounds/level
-Animate Dead: For the purpose of choosing which undead to summon, when cast by a cleric, the caster level is doubled (ie: a level 4 cleric would summon an undead as if they were level 8 ). This doesn't affect the spell's duration though.
-Circle of Doom: If the targets of this spell fail their Will saves, they also suffer 1 point of temporary Strength damage.
-Black Blade of Disaster: The blade's attack bonus is now the same as the caster's, in addition to their Int/Cha bonus depending on the class. It is now also limited to one attack per round. Instead of its current ability to possibly destroy the target on hit, it deals extra damage on critical hits.

[EO]

The following spell's duration has been changed:

-Shelgarn's Persistent Blade: Changed from one Hour + 1 Turn/2 Levels to 1 Turn + 1 Round/Level to be consistent with the other summons. The 24 hour total duration also applies.

I've unstickied this topic since it was not always updated. Please refer to the Wiki for all spell changes.

Evard's Black Tentacles has now been fixed to properly pierce damage reduction.
