Creative Uses For Spells

Silver Crusade

I had a CN character in a Rise of the Runelords campaign I was running use Create Water to waterboard a goblin. What is the most creative use of a spell you have seen?


My Cleric summoned a Spiritual Weapon and, due to a lack of information on it's solidity and carrying capacity, he held it and used it to fly across the map like Thor uses Mjolnir, landing in an area where he was of more use.


I once used Control Winds to circumvent an entire encounter with ogres. Hundreds of mean, bloodthirsty ogres were alerted to the sounds of combat and mobilized towards the tower we were fighting in. My druid spotted them in the distance and cast the spell targeting their encampment.

With just three rounds of concentration I whipped up a tornado that destroyed their entire camp. Those that weren't swept into the tornado's winds fled soon after.


My group once used the breathe underwater spell along with a Summon Nature's ally in order to make the Dwarven Warrior ride an Orca into a battle against the enemy attacking our ship. The same group (different campaign) used Create Water, and Bless Water to flood a crypt full of vampires with holy water.

My son used a Beast Shape III to transform himself into a giant squid during an ambush on a bridge. He devastated our attackers by releasing the Kraken upon the pack of were rats that had no idea what was coming. Crushed two of them with the wagon they had been trying to steal.

Our party once had trouble dealing with a flying wizard. My cleric cast wall of stone to create a ramp leading right up to the wizard. The party monk then ran up the ramp and flying kicked the wizard right in the face.
