Warp Stone/Wood/Metal
Casting time: 1 round
Range: 30m
Duration: 5 minutes
MP cost: 4mp
This spell causes a 10mx10m square of an existing Stone/Wood/Metal surface to become temporarily uneven. If cast on a horizontal surface, any creature that sprints, parkours, acrobatics's, jumps out of, lands in the affected area has to make a dexterity roll or else trip and fall down. Failing a dexterity roll for any other reason in this area also causes the creature to trip. If cast on a vertical surface that is too flat/smooth to climb without a penalty, this spell reduces the penalty by one level (impossible -> quarter/-60 -> half/-30 -> full skill). In either case, when the spell ends, the surface goes completely back to normal.

No, but I could see it being a +10% to climbing instead.

What about +10% OR reduce penalty by one level?
Stone/Wood/Metal Hold

+10% Climb skill to climb Stone/Wood/Metal surfaces OR instead the caster can use the Climb skill with one level less penalty (crit -> quarter/-60 -> half/-30 -> full skill) on a difficult Stone/Wood/Metal surface.

"What about +10% OR reduce penalty by one level?"
So you are saying "What about +10% or +30%"?
No, I think we should stick with the 10%.

I am delighted to ruin flavor for game balance and consistency.
So how about:

Nothing interesting, but it's usable.

Sounds good - anyone else have any thoughts on this?

Since all this one ended up doing was a bonus to skill, I'm tossing it into the churn pile for a bit.
