Note: I am slowly converting Nephilim, an old Chaosium game, over to Dresden Files FATE. I am just flopping all the posts on my blog because I can tag and collect them all later. This stuff is in no particular order. You can buy Nephilim in PDF from DriveThruRPG for ~$17. You should also buy Dresden Files RPG.

Presented for reference: big table of Lower Sorcery spells from the original Nephilim source book that continue to work with Nephilim FATE. For full description of the following spells, please acquire the Nephilim sourcebook.*

Nephilim FATE no longer requires thresholds rolls.  The duration is a scene for all spells.  No Lower Sorcery spells cause permanent change to targets or the environment.

Complexity for these spells is low — an environment target number (PvE) or the target’s Conviction, save Pyretic Limb, which can be considered a weapon-based spell.  Spells are available to all Nephilim provided they have access to the spell’s Focus: a book, parchment, a scroll, a fortune cookie, or some other physical artifacts.  Spells that match the Nephilim’s dominant Ka receive a +1 bonus to Lore when working out complexity to cast, as the Nephilim finds a spell of matching “color” easier to understand than one of a different color.
