Guillgully — The Gills Hex

Created by alexiss

When a caster brandishes their wand and utters the strange incantation "Guillgully!", a cascade of iridescent scales materializes around the target's neck in a mesmerizing display. Within moments, the magical effect settles, and a pair of functional gills unfolds beneath the target's jaw, granting them the ability to breathe underwater as naturally as they would air. The gills remain visible and shimmer with an otherworldly luminescence, serving as a peculiar reminder of the spell's effects. According to arcane historians, this hex originated from a notoriously forgetful wizard who had intended to craft a conventional water-breathing enchantment but tragically botched the spell's verbal component. Rather than abandoning the mishap, the wizard discovered that their mistake had produced something equally useful, though considerably more conspicuous. The spell has since become a curiosity among adventurers who value function over aesthetics. Though the gills appear somewhat unsettling to the uninitiated, they prove invaluable for extended underwater exploration and aquatic endeavors.
