These spells are my attempted updates of 1st Edition spells into 5th Ed, with a bit of housekeeping. Extended thanks to Fruny for all his help with these.
This first batch is from this thread:
https://forum.atlas-games.com/t/the-forgotten-spells/1126/1
Creo Animal
Full Health of Beast and Bird
Level: Gen R: Touch, D: Mom, T: Ind
Cancels the effects (short of death) of a temporary malign Animal spell cast upon a beast of Size +1 or less if you can match the Level of the spell on die + Level.
Base Effect
NOTE: I realise there is a Vim spell that does this better, but it's nice to have multiple ways to do the same thing.
Bear’s Cloak
Level: 20 R: Touch, D: Sun, T: Ind
Makes a size +1 bear pelt. As a blanket, it keeps one warmer than a normal blanket would.
(Base 5 , +1 Touch, +2 Sun)
Conjuration of Savory Beef
Level: 20, R: Touch, D: Mom, T: Ind, Ritual
Produces a whole young cow worth of well cooked, highly spiced beef, enough to make a hearty meal for 300 adults.
(Base: 10, treated and processed +2)
Conjuration of the Tiny Killer
Level: 30 , R: Voice, D: Diam
Creates a shrew, whose bite is poisonous (see Stats, below). A shrew is a vicious animal who will attack whatever is moving and closest, unless further skills or spells are applied.
(Base: 15, Voice (+2), Diam (+1))
NOTE: To quickly quantify it, I would base the shrew on the Viper from the ArM5 Mundane Beasts, changing its stats based on it’s much smaller size (Viper -4, shrew -10: Strength (and Dam) reduced by 12 (to -20); Quickness (and Def) increased by 6 (to 9). I would use the Viper’s Venomous Bite (basically gets the venom in if it hits with Advantage greater than the target’s Armor Protection or the target must make a Stm check of 6+ or take a light wound).
Twin Eyes of the Stalking Shadow
Level: 30 , R: Touch, D: Sun
Creates a black cat whose tail has a white tip. The cat is exceptionally stealthy. Basically as the Shrew above, but since a cat isn’t likely to attack you, Touch range is fine.
Conjuring the Behemoth
Level: 45 , R: Voice, D: Sun
Creates a wild elephant of immense strength.
Base: 15, Voice (+2), Sun (+2) Size (+2)
Conjuring the Lord of Air
Level: 70, R: Voice, D: Mom, Ritual, Req: Vim
Creates an especially ferocious griffin, as described below
(Base: 50, Voice (+2), Size +2)
I’m not aware of a 5th Ed Griffin, but here’s the tweaked 1st Ed Stats:
Griffin
Magic Might 30 (Animal)
Size +4 Cun 0
Per +6 Stm +9
Talons: Init: +6 Atk: +7 Dam +22
Fat: n/a Def +2 Soak +26
Brave +6 Cowardly -6
This creature has a lion’s body in the back and an eagle’s in the front. It attacks with its talons, reserving its beak for tearing its dead victims and for emergency fights. It is ferocious when threatened or hungry, but it is not an innately malicious beast. Its heart is worth 3 pawns of Animal Vis.
Muto Animal
Curse of the Crawling Meat
Level: 4, R: Voice, D: Mom, T: Ind
Gradually turns meat, cooked or raw (but dead) into vermin: flies, spiders, maggots, mice, etc. The inside of each piece transforms first, so viewers watch as the meat first begins to bulge and moves as the vermin inside struggle to get out. Then, when they ear their way free, they crawl and fly about. This spell affects up to a full boar or an equivalent amount of meat.
(Base: 2, Voice (+2))
The Immaculate Beast
Creo Animal Level 15 , R: Touch, D: Sun, T: Ind
Makes an animal into a flawless specimen of its type, amplifying its outstanding features. The animal gets +3 on rolls related to its strongest feature. It will improve a hawk’s vision, a racehorse’s speed, a draft horse’s strength, etc.
(Base: 4, Touch (+1), Sun (+2))
NOTE: I used the recovery bonus as a base, and added +1 Mag for a more general bonus, though one could argue this is more natural for many creatures than healing faster.
Perdo Animal
Shed Fur
Level: 5, R: Voice, D: Mom, T: Ind
Removes the fur from any pelt or living animal up to size +1
(Base 3, Sight (+2))
Alleviate the Serpent’s Bite: 10
Level: 10 , R: Touch, D: Mom, T: Ind
Casting Req: Corp
Makes one dose of animal toxin harmless. If cast on toxin already injected into someone, it requires a corporem prerequisite, and it will keep the person from suffering further damage. It can make poison in a poisonous animal harmless if you can touch the animal in question. It has no effect on herbal or mineral poisons.
(Base: 5, Touch (+1))
Cleanse Verminous Infestation
Level: 50, R: Touch, D: Mom, T: Structure
Eliminates all vermin from a single building, such as a castle keep or covenant gatehouse. All spiders, snakes, rats, mice, lice and other little creatures emerge from their hiding places and kill themselves or each other until all are slain. Any animal Size -3 (or whatever size you designate) or greater is not affected.
(Base: 30, Touch(+1), Structure (+3)
NOTE: Not very likely to be ever used. A better spell might be:
Rego Animal Level 20 , R. Touch, D: Diam, T: Structure
Causes the vermin come out and to kill each other or themselves. There will be some survivors.
(Base 2, Touch (+1), Diam (+1), Structure (+3), complex suggestion (+1)).
The Hunter’s Lethal Arrow
Level: 35, R: Touch, D: Mom, T: Ind
Enchants an arrow to slay an animal. The arrow must be fired on the round after the spell is cast. If it hits an animal, the beast must make a Stm + Size Roll of 12+ or die. If it makes the roll, it still suffers normal arrow damage +10. The target gets normal magic resistance. This spell long ago passed from the secret pages of House Mercere and their Mutantum spells. It has since fell back out of common knowledge. This spell has been mutated to be more inline with Hermetic Magic, and knowledge of it does not allow a caster to create or cast other Mutantum spells.
(Base 30, Touch (+1), Tethered)
Rego Animal Spells
Circle of Beast Warding
Level: 5 , R: Touch, D: Ring, T: Circle
No natural animal will come within the drawn ward.
(Base 2, Touch (+1), Ring (+2))
Ward Against Shapeshifters
Level: General, R: Touch, D: Ring, T: Circle
Creates a magical ring around you. No lycanthrope can enter the ring unless its Magic Might is greater than the level of the ward. A Magus shape shifter must beat the level with his Animal Parma roll. A Bjornaer magus would be uneffected as they are considered normal animals. The ring can be seen as a golden-hued dome at certain angles during the night.
Creo Aquam Spells
Douse the Fiend of Flame
Level: Gen , R: Voice, D: Mom, T: Ind
Weakens and possibly destroys a creature composed of fire, such as a Fire Elemental. A base level 10 spell will inflict a Light Wound, 20 a Medium, 30 a Heavy, 40 an Incapacitating, and 60 will kill it.
(Base effect, +2 Voice)
Burden of the Watery Load
Level: 10, R: Voice, D: Diam, T: Ind
Water forms on one target. Unless the target is naked, the water will soak into furs and clothes, increasing the target’s Load by at least one point. Attack and Defense in Combat are reduced by this extra Encumbrance if the total exceeds the target’s Strength. The target will also leave wet footprints.
(Base 3, +2 Voice, +1 Diam)
Douse the Fire: 5
Level: 5, R: Voice, D: Mom, T: Ind
Creates water in a fire and puts it out if the fire is no larger than a bonfire. This spell causes a good deal of steam.
(Base 3, +2 Voice)
Lungs of Water and Death
Level: 30, R: Voice, D: Sun, T: Ind
Casting Requisites: Animal, Corpus
Fills a target’s lungs full of water, drowning it. The target must make Stamina rolls every 30 seconds, starting at a difficulty of 3, or lose 1 Fatigue Level. The Ease Factor rises by 1 every 30 seconds. Wounds are taken after the target is out of Fatigue. See "Deprivation" on pg 180 of ArM5.
(Base 4, +2 Voice, +2 Sun, very unnatural +2)
Muto Aquam
Water to Wine:
Level: 10 , R: Touch, D: Sun, T: Ind
Changes up to a large cask of water into decent wine. The many variations of this spell create different type of wines, however quality is based on a Int + Finesse roll.
(Base 3, +1 Touch, +2 Sun)
Ice Lock
Rego Aquam Level: 35, R: Sight, D: Sun, Target: Part
Over the course of an hour, one body of water up to the size of a small lake (no more than 2 miles in diameter) freezes. If the water is running, it will either freeze up (if it is small) or fill with ice floes (if it is large).
(Base: 3, +3 Sight, +2 Sun, +1 Part, +2 Size)
Perdo Aquam
Destroy Spirit of the Water:
Level: Gen, R: Voice, D: Mom, T: Ind
Weakens and possibly destroys a creature composed of water, such as a Water Elemental. If the spell penetrates the creatures Magic Resistance, the Elemental loses Might equal to the spell’s level.
(Base effect, +2 Voice)
Rego Aquam
Bind Spirit of the Water
Level: 45, R: Voice, D: Sun, T: Ind
You can control a creature made of water, and may give it one complex command at a time. The creature may resist a specific command on an Intelligence or Cunning roll of 12+, but this does not end the spell.
If the elemental is already bound by a higher level binding spell, your spell will not work. A botch means the elemental will attack you to the best of its ability. If you try to bind an elemental again when its first binding wears off, you risk one extra botch die for every day the elemental has been in your service.
(Base 25, +2 Voice, +2 Sun)
Summon Spirit of the Water
Level: Gen, R: Arc, D: Sun, T: Ind
You can summon any water elemental if you know of it and have an Arcane Connection to it. Because of their nature, Arcane Connections to elementals are not as specific as they are to other creatures. For example, water from a well would serve as a connection to any elemental that inhabits such places. The level of the spell must exceed the Magic Might of the elemental to be summoned. You must summon the elemental out of its natural element. A botch you means you have summoned the wrong kind of elemental, perhaps an unusually strong or hostile one.
(Base Gen, +3 Arc, +2 Sun)
Gift of the Floating Wood
Level: 30, R: Voice, D: Sun, T: Ind
Casting Req: Based on target's Form
Lets any object or creature of Size +3 or smaller float in water. Lasts until the object leaves the water or Sun.
(Base 5, +2 Voice, +2 Sun, +1 Size)
NOTE: This spell acutally makes the water float the object, unlike a Rego Terram or Corpus that makes the object lighter than water. Just another way to do the same effect that favors the Aquam mage.
CREO AURAM
Eroding Winds
Level: Gen , R: Voice, D: Mom, T: Ind
Whips up winds that weaken and possibly destroy a creature composed of earth, such as an Earth Elemental. A base level 10 spell will inflict a Light Wound, 20 a Medium, 30 a Heavy, 40 an Incapacitating, and 60 will kill it.

Req: Rego, Ignum
A huge wave of burning hot wind comes rolling over the area in a mile radius around you. During the ritual a space up to 100 feet around may be paced which will be exempt from the heat.

PERDO AURUM
Slay the Spirit of the Winds:
Level: Gen , R: Voice, D: Mom, T: Ind

(Base 25, +2 Voice, +2 Sun)
Summon Spirit of the Winds: Gen
NOW: Level: Gen, R: Arc, D: Sun, T: Ind
You can summon any air elemental if you know of it and have an Arcane Connection to. Because of their nature, Arcane Connections to elementals are not as specific as they are to other creatures. For example, air from a cloud would serve as a connection to any elemental that inhabits such places. The level of the Ritual must exceed the Magic Might of the elemental to be summoned. You must summon the elemental out of its natural element. A botch you means you have summoned the wrong kind of elemental, perhaps an unusually strong or hostile one.
(Base Gen, +3 Arc, +2 Sun)
CREO CORPUS
Free the Accursed Body
Level: Gen, R: Touch, D: Mom, T: Ind
Cancels the effects (short of death) of a temporary malign corporem spell, if you can match the Level of the spell on die + Level.

Especially large fires can be heard even farther, while dying fires are reduced to whispers. Candles produce sounds similar to soft whistles. Some overlapping or distant fires might require Concentration + Perception 6 + to pick out.

(Base 25, +2 Voice, +2 Sun)
Summon the Fiend of Fire
Level: Gen, R: Arc, D: Sun, T: Ind
You can summon any fire elemental if you know of it and have an Arcane Connection to it. Because of their nature, Arcane Connections to elementals are not as specific as they are to other creatures.

(Base 3, +1 Touch, +1 Conc, +2 size)
Eyes of the Past
Level: 20, R: Voice, D: Conc, T: Ind, Req: Mentem

MUTO IMAGINEM
Illusion of the Altered Image
ReIm Level: 10, R: Touch, D: Sun, T: Ind
Causes an object or illusion up to the size of the door to look different but still normal. For instance, a door could look open instead of closed, or a person could look dirty instead of clean.

Illusion of the Altered Image
Level: 5, R: Touch, D: Sun, T: Part
A voice affected by this spell sounds like a different voice, possibly another person’s voice. A Finesse+ Com roll vs. an observer’s Per + Folk Ken would let you mimic someone’s voice so that even friends would be fooled.
(Base 1, +1 Touch, +2 Sun, +1 Part)
Transparency of New-blown Glass
PeIm Level: 25 , R: Voice, D: Sun, T: Part
Makes any inanimate thing, up to door size, transparent. The transparency is equal to that of glass, so one can still tell that the object exists.
(Base: 4, +2 Voice, +2 Sun, +1 Part)
Visions of the Infernal Terrors
Level: 25, R: Voice, D: Sun, T: Ind, Req: Mentem
Causes everything the target sees to look and sound terrifying. The world looks basically the same, but everything is hideously transformed.

Allows a simple concept, such as the correct key to open a lock or the location of an important book, to be communicated instantly and perfectly into the mind of the target.

(Base 4, +1 Eye)

Emotion of Reversed Intentions
Level: 10, R: Eye, D: Sun, T: Ind
The main emotion influencing a character at the time of the casting is replaced by its opposite over the next minute.

(Base 3, +1 Eye, +2 Sun)
CREO TERRAM
Laden Spirit of the Wind
Level: Gen , R: Voice, D: Mom, T: Ind

Creates a polished, flint metal head. The caster makes an Int + Finesse roll, a 3+ indicates a functional spear head, when attached to a spear or staff making its damage +4. A Finesse roll of 6+ creates one of notable quality (Damage +5), while a roll of 12+ indicates an extraordinary item (Damage +6).

Rampart of Protecting Earth
Level: 10 , R: Voice, D: Sun, T: Ind

Circle of the Faerie Stone
Level: 30, R: Voice, D: Sun, T: Ind
Requisite: Imaginem
Creates an ancient looking stone wall, made up of rough slabs of stone covered with runes in a circle up to 4 paces high and 8 paces in diameter. The wall is covered by a sight and touch based illusion to make any attempt to climb the stone or chip through it frustrating at best, and impossible at worst. Per + Search rolls of 12+ are required to make any progress each round. At your option, the circle may contain an entrance into the center and this may be covered by a shifting illusion confusing where one may exit or enter (or both) using the same Search roll as above.
(Base: 3, +2 Voice, +2 Sun, +1 Req, +1 extra sense, +1 size)
Opening the Earth’s Pore
Level: 50, R: Sight, D: Sun, T: Part, Ritual
Requisite: Ignem
Opens a hole from the surface of the earth down to the hot reaches of Hell. Molten rock spews forth out of this hole, accompanied by noxious gases. Normally people can outrun the lava flow, however those within 15 paces of the pore are hit by some of the lava on the initial eruption. The lava spill covers the land within one mile of the pore, doing +20 damage to anyone caught in it each round. Those outrunning the lava are still dealt +5 damage from heat and toxic gasses. On typical flat ground, the lava takes about an hour to reach the 1 mile point, though it can go much faster down hill (and even outpace a horse). The lava keeps erupting until the duration expires, but at the 1 mile mark the lava hardens and stops flowing. All wooden items are set ablaze, structures are destroyed or filled by the lava flow, rendering them unrecoverable, except by magic.
(Base: 3 (from Muto guideline), +3 Sight, +2 Sun, +1 Part, +1 Req, +4 size)
NOTE: Nasty.
MUTO TERRAM
Statue to Animal
Level: 40, R: Voice, D: Sun, T: Ind
Requisite: Animal, Rego
Causes a hand-sized, earthen or stone statue of an animal to grow into the full sized animal it is a copy of. The animal will follow the vocal orders of the magus, and will revert to statue form commanded to do so, which ends the spell. If killed in animal form, the statue is damaged beyond repair. Damage done to the statue while in full animal form is not normally healed, but may be repaired with magic or craft. The animal may be any mundane creature up to size +1. It retains it stone-like soak of +15, but otherwise has the same stats as a normal creature of its type. It has no Magic Might score. Poorly constructed statues can impose penalties upon the full size animal, however a moderately skilled craftsman can create a normal statue in a couple of hours with a Dex + Craft roll of 6+.
(Base 10, +2 Voice, +2 Sun, +1 Req, +1 Extra effect (size change))
PERDO TERRAM
Destroy the Spirit of the Earth

REGO TERRAM
Bind the Spirit of the Earth
Level: 45, R: Voice, D: Sun, T: Ind
You can control a creature made of earth, and may give it one complex command at a time. The creature may resist a specific command on an Intelligence or Cunning roll of 12+, but this does not end the spell. If you try to bind an elemental again when its first binding wears off, you risk one extra botch die for every day the elemental has been in your service.
(Base 25, +2 Voice, +2 Sun)
Summon the Spirit of the Earth
Level: Gen, R: Arc, D: Sun, T: Ind
You can summon any earth elemental if you know of it and have an Arcane Connection to it. Because of their nature, Arcane Connections to elementals are not as specific as they are to other creatures. For example, rock from a mine would serve as a connection to any elemental that inhabits such places. The level of the spell must exceed the Magic Might of the elemental to be summoned.
(Base Gen, +3 Arc, +2 Sun)
Ward Against Spirits of the Earth
Level: Gen, R: Touch, D: Ring, T: Circle

MuCo/MuAn 5 /MuTe(He) 10 Greenness of the Mundane
(there are 3 versions of this spell)
T: part
D: Inst
R: voice
Used with Forceless casting
Effect: Makes the person/animal/item ear or other concrete part glow bright green for a moment.
This means that if the spell is resisted by the creature or item and so, the creature or item does NOT glow, it means that the creature has MR of some kind. Hence it is detected to be a supernatural being by negating the spell.
There is a more powerful version for items that also affects metal, but given the fact that you can usually target "softer" parts of the item more easily afected by magic it is not as popular as the above version.
Base 2: +2 voice, +1 part. +1 for He requisite in the Te spell.
That was lefthanded
ReIm 20 R:Voice D:Sun T:Individual
Base 2, Voice +2, Sun+2, changing image +1, moved image matches changes +1
The target of this spell gets "mirrored", so when he's waving his right hand, it apears to be the right hand. When he's looking left, he seems to turn his head to the right.
This will distract opponents a lot in melee: All the attacks that seem to come from the left do actually hit from the right and vice-versa.
Target gets +2 bonus to attack and defense in melee (opponents are distracted) as well as -3 to all social interaction (target looks into wrong directions, handshaking...).
If you can see the reflection of your target in a mirror, this will add +3 to your casting roll for obvious reasons...
Apparently I was to fast submitting this spell. The spell is still being discussed.
Mirror of Redirection
MuVi (General)

The Warm Wizard and The Warming Wizard
The Warm Wizard
* CrIg 4
* R: Personal T: Sun T: Individual
* Base: 2 +2 Sun
* keeps the caster warm enough to be comfortable in cold conditions avoiding fatigue loss. Any spell or magical effect that penetrates their magic resistance may cause fatigue loss however. Originally designed so that Thomas Sealman could keep warm if he had to hide for hours in a frozen lake. Thomas has deficient Ignem so he found it hard to create the effect spontaneously.
The Warming Wizard
* CrIg 5
* R: Touch T: Sun T: Individual
* Base: 2, +1 Touch +2 Sun
* keeps the subject warm enough to be comfortable in cold conditions avoiding fatigue loss. Any spell or magical effect that penetrates their magic resistance may cause fatigue loss however. This is "The Warm Wizard" expanded to allow it's use on others.
Need guidance on whether this is legitimate, is having such a warm coat a "minor ability"? Is it worth more that +1 to difficulty?
Skin of the Seal MuCo(An) 5???
The caster grows thick, waterproof fur that keeps him warm even in icebound water.

I made a spell Ease the Babe's passage which assumed that you could use the Creo Corpus guidelines for bonuses to recovery rolls to aid childbirth. EDIT: I have since read in A&A p 60 that the actual guideline is different. So I'm going to cut everything I wrote after this except the actual spell mechanic, which I will change.
