Missing Spirit spells

Unread post by MidnightNova »

In Rifter #65 there are a number of new spells for necromancy, including the sub-category of Spirit Spells (For the Spirit Caller). At least two of them however are not described, these being Spectral Sword and Ghost Ship. Now, Spectral Sword I am fairly certian I saw somewhere, but cannot recll where. Ghost Ship is a complete enigma however.

Also of note is many of the new spells added for Spirit Magic have (New) after their names in the list, which would seem to imply they were published elsewhere (Unless that was just in error). Does anyone know where Ghost Ship and Spectral Sword are described? Or were they just omitted?

I'm glad someone posted, because I knew I had seen them somewhere! I know I have thrown the Ghost Ship spell into the mix in my 1E fantasy games as a "lost" spell that players may find (or find scrolls of) while rambling around. I looked in the Book of Magic, and couldn't think of where else I could have gotten it. lol
