Awaken Water Elemental (spell template) [Credit: Freddy, Scott]
Casting time: 1 minute
Range: Appears adjacent to you, then may move up to 100m away
Duration: Until it dies or you dismiss it
MP cost: 12mp
To cast this spell, you must have some of the element available to serve as a material component. As long as the spell is active, you cannot regain the MP you spent to cast it. If you and the elemental are more than 100m apart, the spell ends as if you had dismissed it. The caster always has a rough idea ("over that way") where the elemental is. {Note - if the caster has ‘drain MP’ they can try to steal MP, use cards, etc to get their MP back while this spell is going.}
Generic Elemental
Travel rate: 40KM/day, 80KM/day through its native element
Maneuver%; Combat move: 30%; 3/10m Through its native element, 60%; 6/20m
To hit/Damage: 30%/d8
Armor/HP: 2/10 (requires magic or opposite element to hit)
Special attacks: If out of melee range, may shoot/throw its element at 30%/d6 damage (indefinitely), range 10m.
Special defenses: Only takes damage from magical attacks and/or the opposite element.
Special abilities:
Special weaknesses: takes +4 bumps damage from the opposite element.
Description: Variable; crudely humanoid form comprised entirely of the element.
Diet: None
Lootability/Treasure: None
Where/when found: Special or placed only
Default disposition toward PC's: Neutral (unless ordered otherwise)
Other notes: Simple commands only, all humans (etc) look alike to it, etc. It is stupid.
Additional notes: The pet goes away between game sessions. Also, going into any zone which requires a roll to see if magic works necessitates a roll (made by the caster) for the pet as soon as the pet passes into the new zone. Failing that roll means the pet goes away/is destroyed, etc. Note that MP that were 'tied up by the pet' do not return immediately after the pet is destroyed - the caster must do the usual eight hour sleep to get them back. If they have the pet and get eight hours sleep, those MP tied up in this spell just don't regenerate.

Casting Time: 1 Round
Range: 1 km underwater
Duration: 1 Hour
MP Cost: 4
You can "see" underwater up to 1 km away. You can tell whether something is moving, an approximate shape (round, square, long, etc) and size (minimum of "average human size"). With a successful Unaided Sonar skill roll, you can tell approximately how far away the thing you're asking about is and what direction it's moving in (if any, otherwise you just get "it's in that direction somewhere"). You must be in or above water (such as in a boat) to use this spell. Reminder: Sonar only works for stuff in the water. Just like with regular sonar, creatures (and devices) which can track back sonar to it's source may choose to track this back to the caster.

Awaken Water Elemental (spell template) [Credit: Freddy, Scott]
Casting time: 1 minute
Range: Appears adjacent to you, then may move up to 100m away
Duration: Until it dies or you dismiss it
MP cost: 12mp
To cast this spell, you must have some of the element available to serve as a material component. As long as the spell is active, you cannot regain the MP you spent to cast it. If you and the elemental are more than 100m apart, the spell ends as if you had dismissed it. The caster always has a rough idea ("over that way") where the elemental is. {Note - if the caster has ‘drain MP’ they can try to steal MP, use cards, etc to get their MP back while this spell is going.}
Generic Elemental
Travel rate: 40KM/day, 80KM/day through its native element
Maneuver%; Combat move: 30%; 3/10m Through its native element, 60%; 6/20m
To hit/Damage: 30%/d8
Armor/HP: 2/10 (requires magic or opposite element to hit)
Special attacks: If out of melee range, may shoot/throw its element at 30%/d6 damage (indefinitely), range 10m.
Special defenses: Only takes damage from magical attacks and/or the opposite element.
Special abilities:
Special weaknesses: takes +4 bumps damage from the opposite element.
Description: Variable; crudely humanoid form comprised entirely of the element.
Diet: None
Lootability/Treasure: None
Where/when found: Special or placed only
Default disposition toward PC's: Neutral (unless ordered otherwise)
Other notes: Simple commands only, all humans (etc) look alike to it, etc. It is stupid.
Additional notes: The pet goes away between game sessions. Also, going into any zone which requires a roll to see if magic works necessitates a roll (made by the caster) for the pet as soon as the pet passes into the new zone. Failing that roll means the pet goes away/is destroyed, etc. Note that MP that were 'tied up by the pet' do not return immediately after the pet is destroyed - the caster must do the usual eight hour sleep to get them back. If they have the pet and get eight hours sleep, those MP tied up in this spell just don't regenerate.
