Spider climb (drow)

The drow version of spider climb was an improved version of the spell spider climb, which was imvented by the netherese arcanist Quantoul.

Effects
The drow version of the spider climb spell worked mostly like the original.

The caster could target herself or other people by touching them. The recipient needed to be barefoot and barehanded to draw benefits from the spell.

Movement with this spell was silent. The hand and feet were sticky and rubble or other weighing less than one pound could get stuck at them. This side effect made spellcasting difficult to impossible.

The ability to stick to a surface was not impossible to overcome. A person sticking to the surface could be torn away, although sufficient strength was required to do so.

The effects of this spell could be ended by verbal command, in the case of the caster being the recipient, or by verbal command and the caster being within a certain area, in the case of another person than the caster being the recipient.

The specialty of this spell was regarding its duration. If the caster was the recipient, the spell could be turned on and off, meaning the caster could spread out the duration of this effect at her own discretion and did not need to use it up in one stroke. The caster could also transfer remaining effect time to another person by touch. Other people than the caster had to use the spell's duration in one stroke.

Components
The spell required only somatic and verbal components.

History
As mentioned above, the spell was an improvement of the original as invented by Quantoul.
