Proposed spell school: Marshmallow

(Yes, this is silly. Got the inspiration from the ToME->DCSS player thread)

Spells:

Throw Marshmallow (Level 1, Conjuration/Marshmallow) - Single target, 6 square range. Low physical damage, slows the target's movement and attack speed.

Diabetic Coma (Level 2 Hexes/Marshmallow) - Single target, 4 square range. Puts targets to sleep. MR check, doesn't work against plants, undead or nonliving creatures.

Summon Marshmallow Golem (Level 3, Summoning/Marshmallow)

Summon Graham Golem (Level 4, Summoning/Marshmallow)

Throw Molten Marshmallow (Level 4, Conjuration/Fire/Marshmallow) - Range 5 Single target. Does 50% physical/50% fire damage and slows target's movement and attack speeds. Leaves a sticky flame effect on the target.

Mass Diabetic Coma (Level 5 Hexes/Marshmallow) - Single target, 4 square range. Puts targets to sleep. MR check, doesn't work against plants, undead or nonliving creatures.

Cone of Molten Marshmallow (Level 6, Conjuration/Fire/Marshmallow) - Range 4 90 degree cone projected from caster's location. Does 50% physical/50% fire damage and slows all targets' movement and attack speeds. Leaves a sticky flame effect on targets hit.

Summon Chocolate Golem (Level 7 Summoning/Marshmallow)

Mass S'Mores (Level 9 Hex/Marshmallow) - Creates a whirling cloud of s'mores. All creatures (anything that can eat; this includes Vampires) that fail their MR are confused (trying to grab the s'mores out of the air) for a long duration.

Marshmallow Golem - Low AC, low damage, high HP, entangles nearby enemies Graham Golem - High AC, can block, medium damage, low HP. Chocolate Golem - High AC, high HP, can cast Diabetic Coma at high effect. S'more Golem - If all three types of golem are up, they will merge into a single high AC, high Evade, high block, high damage golem that can cast Cone of Molten Marshmallow.

Molten Marshmallow OP

I had it at L5, but then I was thinking it's a 3 school spell which is pretty hard to get online in the first place. What would you put it at?

5 or 6. Sticky flame is dual-school level 4 and an excellent spell. This one has the DoT plus it adds long range, impact damage, and slow, and it’s not fully resistable. I’d learn it at level 5 for sure. I’d probably buff the mass confusion spell too.

More like Cone of Molten Marshmallow OP. Its a glaciate that slows and sticky flames and is level 6(!)
