Erstam’s Surprise is a spell of random effects.
Spell Description[edit]
The namesake of its creator, Erstam’s Surprise conjures dark clouds that radiate from the caster and have one of several different effects that are detrimental to enemies, including those of the spells Sleep, Poison and Cause Fear. The casting mage has no control over what exact effect is produced in the clouds. Erstam himself simply calls the spell Surprise, but notes that others have added his name to its designation.
Lore[edit]
| “ | As I am the creator of this spell, others call it Erstam’s Suprise. This spell creates great clouds of gasses that inflict a variety of effects on those who breathe them — poison, sleep and fear being the most common. |

Trivia[edit]
- The spell was originally called Smoke Field, before the name was changed during development. The original name did describe the spell effects quite well.
- While the words of power for the spell in the manual are Uus Vas Grav, the game uses Ex Por (like with a number of other spells).
