Dark Age Clerics, Part II

Dark Age Tests
What has come has gone, perhaps never to return, whether a Bronze Age collapse, Iron Age collapse, or not.

1-9. All things come to an end, some more unfortunately than others. The dark age cleric (or whomever is affected by this test) experiences austerity. Each result will compound when experienced more than once, and might only be undone once he (or the dark age cleric who caused it) rolls a magical side-effect of 12 at some point (see Part I). 

As for what the thing affected is, roll 1d8: [i] magic spell, [ii] thing held, [iii] thing worn, [iv] thing consumed, [v] thing read, [vi] thing sat upon, [vii] mode of transport, [viii] furnishing.

Bronze Age Clerics, Part III

Bronze Age Magic

Copper and tin can create results far beyond themselves.

Spells Known: Bronze Age clerics can know 1d4+2 spells of levels that they can cast, determined at random. These are drawn from the standard cleric list, or from a divinity or other list if combining rules (see Folk & Epoch Variations below). For example, a 4th level palace cleric might know just three 1st level spells, but five 2nd level spells.

Bronze Age Tests
Great works may collapse with an even greater fall.

Bones of old brings magic that goes beyond rock.

Stone Age clerics can know 1d3 spells of levels that they can cast, determined at random. That's a lot!

1st Level (d8)

1. Cure Light Wounds (reversible)   5. Resist Cold

2. Protection from Evil           6. Shillelagh (D)

3. Purify Food and Drink                   7. Affect Normal Fires*

4. Remove Fear (reversible)          8. Shield*

Stone Age Tests

Staying alive may not turn out like one intends.

1-9. Primitive urges demand the cleric's action. Roll again to see what must be done right now!

Caveman (1d4)

   [1] Smash the next 1d6 things he sees that he is forbidden from using (e.g. metal, pottery, pants). Those using them at the time will likely not appreciate it.

   [2] Yell at the closest person or thing in a random direction until either they attack or flee. Inanimate objects might need to be yelled at for quite a while.

   [3] Dance especially crazily, causing 2d10-1 damage to himself and to all within 1d3 x 5' who don't save vs. death/ make a Reflex save DC 10. He has a 50% chance of singing too (per Caveman Do's in Part I)

   [4] Regress, losing 2d4 Intelligence and having to make a check (DC 15) to say words, take simple actions, or even use fire for the next 2d6 turns. Much grunting is required.
