I think you will all hate me for this horrible creation (kudos if you know where I got this sucker from):

Grudge Trap

• REQUIREMENTS: Level 40 and Shadow (Level: 9)
  
• COST: 27 Magic
  
• DESCRIPTION: Place a Magic circle, filled with the hatred and grudge that you will hold against the enemy in your afterlife, in the air anywhere except directly underneath targets or within a foot of them, which is invisible to everyone except yourself and your allies. This can be summoned to Cover yourself or an ally.
  • TRIGGER CONDITION: An attack that costs Magic passes over the Magic circle.
    
  • TRIGGER EFFECT: The trap reveals itself and expands to cover the enemy party opposing whoever triggered the trap:
    • EFFECT: Whenever someone who is covered by the trap dies as the direct result of an attack, the attacker loses all of their Magic.
      • This includes deaths caused as the result of friendly fire.
        
      • This does not affect boss-type enemies.
        
      • This does not occur if the target instantly revives.
  • DURATION: The trap remains active until someone covered by this trap dies, whereupon the trap is consumed.

Now for something less evil:

Shifting Trap

• REQUIREMENTS: Level 30 and Shadow (Level: 5)
  
• COST: 13 Magic
  
• DESCRIPTION: Place a large Magic circle, large enough to cover a party, that constantly appears to shift from its position on the ground anywhere which is invisible to everyone except yourself and your allies.
  • TRIGGER CONDITION: Someone rerolls an attack in the same room as the Magic circle.
    
  • TRIGGER EFFECT: The trap reveals itself and gives anyone covered by the trap the ability to momentarily shift their position in the face of oncoming attacks and to evade defences:
    • EFFECT: Everyone covered by the trap gets a free reroll for each Attack and Defend they make
      • Unused rerolls do not stack.
  • DURATION: This trap remains active until dispelled or otherwise destroyed.
    • This can be dispelled as if it is an Field Effect.

      • This can be done right after any immediate revival effects or Faries, provided the person in question remains dead.

Summoned Whispy's abilities

This is why you don't get me to write support spells:

• COST: 20 Magic
  
• DESCRIPTION: Target a dead ally and send them up to the sun to have a tea party with KEESE AND CO., who will later return them alive with a mask of Light covering their face.

      • Holy Confusion is immune to the first two abilities that try to remove it.
        
      • It can not be transferred or copied to anyone else.
    • At the start of your next turn, the target is no longer considered to be Out of Battle. That must have been some heavenly tea up there.

Masquerade of Light

• COST: 20 Magic
  
• DESCRIPTION: Target a dead ally and send them up to the sun to have a tea party with KEESE AND CO., who will later return them alive with a mask of Light covering their face.
  • EFFECT: The corpse is sent up to the heavens, rendering them as Out of Battle.

      • Holy Confusion is immune to the first two abilities that try to remove it.
    • At the start of your next turn, the target is returned to the battle. That must have been some heavenly tea up there.

Few questions.

1. Holy Confusion affliction; what does it do to attack?
   
2. Duration of Holy Confusion -sounds- like it lasts until the player returns to battle; official rules state afflictions last until end of battle. Does this mean you're essentially always forced to target with $1d#?
   
3. Immune to the first two abilities that try to remove it. ... Quite the overpowered affliction, if I might add.
