Three first-level spells: Vine Truth, Messenger, Flash

Vine Truth
Range: 0
Duration: 1 turn
Effect: One conjured flower for divining truth

This spell produces a small coiling vine that wraps around the wrist of the Magic-User, ending in a showy blossom held between the fingertips. Until the spell's duration runs out, if an individual within 30' of the Magic-User knowingly tells a lie, a petal will fall from the blossom to signal the untruth.


Messenger
Range: 200'
Duration: 5 rounds or until delivered
Effect: One message of ten words or less

This spell conjures a tiny construct of magical energy, to which the Magic-User gives a message of no more than ten words. The construct immediately makes its way to the recipient chosen by the Magic-User despite apparent barriers such as walls (unless blocked by metal); when the recipient comes into contact with the construct, the message is delivered and the spell ends.


Flash
Range: 50'
Duration: 1 round
Effect: A burst of multicoloured light

When casting this spell, the Magic-User points at a chosen target. An orb of rainbow colours races from their fingertip towards the target, erupting into a brilliant burst of multicoloured light that causes 1-4 hit points of damage and blinds for two rounds.
