True Dweomers are affected by metamagic feats, but note that many of the more potent feats have such a large level adjustment, they cannot be fit onto the higher level true dweomers without use of a magic wand or spell research.


  • range

true Dweomers can use any range, but tend to mainly be medium range with some exceptions. ritual makes much larger

  • area of effect

true dweomers with AOE's tend to be LARGE. note that metamagic can make even that larger. ritual also makes larger

  • saves

true dweomers follow the basic rule 'no auto effects', but may impose no-save or save penalties as 'special gimmicks'. hellball, for example, is a no-save AOE with a long range, but is otherwise lackluster.
