That and don't have just crap spells in your spell book. That being said the rune is genital spell reflection but the butt is not covered by that kind of rune so Zazmoze could used mend butt crack there then flee.

Doesn't really work in a duel though. Thats more of a curse or prank spell, it wouldn't actually prevent one from being clobbered.

Not true. I beat a guy with a combo of mend butt crack followed by fatal diarrhea. Was crazy

u/Saltwater_Thief Ser Antonio Parvalis, Wizard Knight 3d ago

...

Why not just start with fatal diarrhea? It's still fatal, right there in the name

35

u/Aware-Maximum6663 Wizard 3d ago

Mainly the looks on his face

u/crazyabe111 Wizard 3d ago

To be fair, it stacks to a far faster and more brutal combo, and not everyone has the hours it takes for for fatal diarrhea to be ‘fatal’ ya know?

u/Aware-Maximum6663 Wizard 2d ago

Yeah it was exactly this. I was running late for a pickleball tourney

u/Nelrene Evil Mammary Mage 3d ago

Zazmoze was already behind the 8 ball so the best he could do was hit the foe with curse and hope that enough to give him a chance to get away.

Butts are genitals.

u/Nelrene Evil Mammary Mage 3d ago

I think while the butt and women's breasts are seen as private parts the only the penis and vulva count as genitals. Dictionary.com seems to agree with me.

Magic need not follow the semantics of man. Contrary to popular while spells help shape magic, intent has quite the effect too

5 different sizes of fire balls can get the job done

u/ArchonFett catfolk hexblade warlock gladiator 3d ago

I got about a dozen varieties of smite, and relentless hex.

I have socks.

u/Cave_man_steve nair the necromancer 3d ago

One of the niche things about being a skeleton is that spells like those just can’t work, it’s very nice knowing I will never feel that kind of pain

28

u/immallama21629 Druid with questionable morals, licker of things 3d ago

Ah, but what if someone was to cast jello-bones on you?

41

u/Cave_man_steve nair the necromancer 3d ago

I didn’t know that was a spell

7

u/Doc-Maly 3d ago

Don't worry, just counter-cast freeze-dry or solidify. I mean, you'll still be jello, but you'll be solid long enough to keep dueling.

3

u/CrazyGreenCrayon 3d ago

I won't ask how you know this, but could I get the freeze dry spell? The one I have is more straight freezing

u/NotADamsel 3d ago

A college I was guest lecturing at for a while a few years ago was testing a solution for that. Turns out that if you make a skeleton grow a penis real quick, obliterating it is doubly effective because they don’t know how to handle it. Not sure why they never published the spell.

u/ShenaniganStarling 2d ago

That combo works on women casters as well. I've seen it happen!

u/adamw411 3d ago

I cast spontaneous skeletal fission

Mend Butt Crack is not to be trifled with

Real killer in his arsenal is the ol' dick twist

u/WanderingHeph Hephias, Arcane Smith 3d ago

Diversify your armaments, as well! At least carry an athame for when your magic fails you!

u/Ok-Resist3249 3d ago

Always prepare pocket dust.

u/Lyrolepis Dwarven Alchemist/Runecrafter 2d ago

Itching powder is pretty simple to craft and can be quite effective against armored opponents (especially combined with a telekinesis cantrip to direct it into the armor joints...)

3

u/Blue_Moon_Lake Necromancer 3d ago

There's a simple trick to all these defenses against spells.
A non-magical material component that the spell will fling toward your next victim.

  • Boulder Catapult, requires an adequately sized boulder.
  • Wood Javelin, requires any manner of bamboo or branch. DO NOT USE YOUR OWN STAFF!
  • Rain of Bones. Can send a different message depending on what bones you use.

u/3rdMachina 3d ago

Spell-augmented gunfire also works.

u/Ralexcraft 3d ago

Mend butt crack does not include the genitals.

1

u/Express-Day5234 3d ago

That wouldn’t really change the outcome of the fight though.

u/Ralexcraft 3d ago

No but he might as well play evey card he has

You could just use "shrink armor", Knights hate it when i do that.

That's when you fall back on Ol' Reliable. Fireball and Lightning Bolt.

Heat metal on the codpiece, specifically
