Flavour of Magic
Type: NoncombatMP Cost: 10
This spell will allow you to bring your mystical being in line with the elemental forces that underly all things: earth, wind, fire, water, and heart. Wait, I mean hot, cold, sleaze, stench, and spookiness. And what's the deal with 'heart' anyway? How does that make any sense at all?
Forces pasta spells (not sauce ones) to have a single element of choosing. Also adds +10 Spell Damage. (40 Adventures)
| Source: | Guild Trainer |
| Price: | 14,000 Meat |
| Class: | Pastamancer |
| Level: | 14 |
Obtaining this skill gives the player five elemental spells that show up in the skills menu:
- Spirit of Cayenne (hot damage)
- Spirit of Peppermint (cold damage)
- Spirit of Garlic (stench damage)
- Spirit of Wormwood (spooky damage)
- Spirit of Bacon Grease (sleaze damage)
Notes
- Despite the in-game description, this skill is not a noncombat skill itself but offers the five elemental noncombat skills noted above.
- The bonus damage to all spells was added with NS13.
- This skill will not cause Weapon of the Pastalord to do elemental damage, nor does it change the element of Fearful Fettucini; however, its bonus spell damage will apply.
- An elemental cookbook (such as Gazpacho's Glacial Grimoire) will trump the elemental effect. This skill itself effectively gives the same effect as an elemental cookbook, though.
- Casting one of the Spirit skills while having one of a different element active will replace the former with the recently-cast. You can still multi-cast this spell to gain its effect for multiple adventures.
References
- The elemental forces mentioned are a reference to the cartoon show Captain Planet. The powers that combined to form Captain Planet were, in order, Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, and Heart; the phrase "And what's the deal with 'heart' anyway?" refers to the fact that the fifth element, Heart, is often ridiculed.
- Oddly enough, the 5 elements are not listed in the 'correct' order in the skill description. Perhaps the order they are in is a result of wanting "Earth, Wind, and Fire" to be in that order. The correct order is Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, Heart.
- The name of the skill is a reference to the first Discworld novel, "The Colour of Magic". (This is why the British spelling is used.)
