Seaspells are powerful spells invoked through melding one's psyche with a sea spirit that dwells within a ship, via a consecrated and mounted figurehead. Each seaspell has an associated power cost, and the power is replenished through sailing and from invoking hunger on a seamonster.

A figurehead may have up to four seaspells invested, and seaspells may only be invested or uninvested when docked at a harbour.

Be careful: each and every barrier raised once this seaspell is active drains power from the figurehead, until you DISSOLVE BARRIER.

Hunger Replenish your figurehead by slaying seamonsters
Syntax: INVOKE HUNGER <target seamonster>
Power cost: 300
