My favorite Twittersnip spells of the year.
2023 Spells
Aflen’s Loosen Whale: Makes a whale void its bowels in the middle of the ocean, releasing any ambergris (or other items) it might have held.

Captivity posture spell in action
Captivity Posture: The target stops moving and assumes a position where they can be easily chained or bound by the caster.
Cloud of Calming: Clerical spell that enchants a passing cloud to calm and refresh whoever it passes over. The spell lasts as long as the cleric can see it.
