10th lvl and beyond spells

[damendred]

Hi everyone,

I'm not sure if this thread belongs here but I am building a game around the ability to cast 10th lvl and up spells (not just epic 9th lvl spells) what are some of your thoughts on the scope and power of these spells? Any examples?

Ice-9 (just pretend that it's a 10). So powerful that it sucks away all the heat in the universe. Gotta trap them in a Bag of Holding first, or some other alternate dimension.

God, I love 8-bit Theater.

Heh, never read Cat's Cradle before. Nice trivia though, might have to read it... one day.

The link to the epic spellcasting looks pretty neat though.

I have and they are rad, but it was always my understanding that those are epic 9th lvl spells but still 9th lvl what are the spells that mystra (in forgoten realms) banned humanity from using after the fall of netheril. I understand diffrent setting but the ideas still the same

back I'n 2nd edition there was some talk of 10th lvl spells but it's been so long I cannot remember the context. we came up with the spell summon brauntosaur ( it would appear over your opponents head and fall on him ) and it's lvl 11 counterpart summon brauntosaur swarm we never defined this but I thinking there would be a large paleontology museum at the scene of your battle I'n a few million years.

3.5 epic spells were not uber lvl 9 spells though I think you could make them it was a do it your self spell system that was conceptually neat but I'm told basically broken.

Mojorat: You are correct. Epic 3.5 spells were 10th level spells, not uper 9th. The casting system didn't work very well, I had one wizard who learned the frog spell, the rest were happy to use higher level spell slots to memorize spells like quickened maximized horrid wilting, and so on. But there were some good examples of spells more powerful than a wish.
