(Love the fiction too.)<br /><br />Yeah, I totally dig the sleep effect. I was aware of the immobilization effect from old stories, it hadn't occurred to me to just have it be a mobile sleep spell. Makes it more powerful, but then again it's non-discriminating, which could lead to boffo laffs.

After having watched the original Wicker Man the other night, I would add the ability to cause Sleep (as per the spell) in a thirty foot radius, with the person lighting the Hand immune from this effect.<br /><br />The use of the Mandrake Root and the dangerous harvesting are also awesome. I remember reading about the mandrake root years ago in those weird Man,Myth & Magic books and shuddering at the thought of such a thing.<br /><br />Excellent post all around!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
