Tome Ideas

I don’t want to propose this because it contains several ideas for tomes, some of which people might like and some of which they might not like and so I don’t want a proposal with some good ideas to fail because of the bad ones. I also can’t really think of Tomish names for them…

Conductor of the Spheres
Spherical Disorder:
    Circumstances: This spell may be cast occasionally when the number of planets in Detriment minus the number of Dignified planets is at least four.
    Consequences: The student casting this spell must roll a DICE12 for each planet, setting that planet’s sign to the value of the dice roll as counted from order listed in the ruleset. So if the result for Pluto is a 7, Pluto’s sign will become Libra.. For the purposes of rule 2.4, it is considered that every planet has been “named” even though a planet in sign post never happened. E also loses sanity equal to the average(rounded down) of all the rolls.

Spherical Melody:
    Circumstances: This spell may be cast occasionally when the number of Dignified planets minus the number of planets in Detriment is at least four.
    Consequences: The student casting this spell may make a Planet in Sign post which would otherwise be against the rules outlined in rule 2.4.(So he could move a planet before its time is up, make a second Planet in Sign Post, or do both). If e makes a planet Dignified or no longer in Detriment, e loses 3 sanity. If e puts a planet in Detriment or e makes a planet no longer Dignified, e loses 7 sanity. Elsewise, e loses 5 sanity.

The Tome of Mischief (2 copies)

Zodical Mischief
    Circumstances: This spell may be cast occasionally when the four generational planets form a Grand Cross
    Consequences: The caster of the spell loses 3 sanity, e may switch the order of two neighboring signs, effectively changing which set of signs are opposite, quadrate and trine.

I have few other ideas, but havn’t quite figured out how they would work yet. So yeah, lemme know what you think of these two tomes so I can fix them and turn them into a real proposal.

I’d probably vote for these, but I think the Zodiacal Mischief spell should require a minimum Mythos level, considering its awesome power.
