These are a bit different from the rest.

269: While some DMs probably won't allow it: In 4.0E, there is an item called the Wand of Mage Hands (or something like that), which allows you to make more Mage Hands (one extra per plus)... A single Mage Hand can stop some projectiles coming your way... then what about seven of them? Voila. Magic Shield Bits.

270: Similar to the above: Arm all of the Mage Hands with a crossbow and or a sword (depending on what you have and want them to hold). Launch all of the Hands and the enemy, attacking them from different directions. Voila. Funnels (Or Fangs) (Yes, these are based on technology from different Gundam series.)

271: In our games, spells like fireball and scorching burst are attacks that are charged in the Mage's hands and can therefore be considered a handheld object. Prestidigitation can make a handheld object invisible...

272: Need to wake someone up, but you can't be bothered with getting water to throw over them? Mage Hand to get the bucket of water... And to throw it at him now that we're at it.

273: Cast Light above a Purble Dragon to create a sphere of glowing light above it. Make sure the sphere isn't bigger than the sun seems to be. Use Prestidigitation to make the sphere of light look like the sun. The poor thing is never gonna find a safe place. (4.0 Purble Dragons lose 1/4 their maximum HP if they end their turn in direct sunlight. This light isn't real sunlight, but the illusion should scare the living crap out of the dragon for the first few rounds.)

274: Summon enough Mage Hands and get them to pick up a guard and lift him high enough above the ground (and move him out over the edge of the nearest cliff). When he says "lemme go" or "Let go of me", obey.

275: Use Prestidigitation to make the Male Tiefling Warlock look like the happy, peaceful owner of a store... a flower store, no less.

276: Is there an old woman in town who's bugging you? Use Prestidigitation to give her a bigger nose and some warts and go to the lord warden/king and say "We've found a witch. May we burn her?" If you're lucky, you'll get the permission. If not, you can always fake the cause of death.

#278  Fake your own death (if you an illusionist like me)
Your next to death so you use prestidigitation to make it appear your spell backfired and that "fireball" you just cast droped at your own feet (minor action). scream like hell (free action).  Cast invisibility on yourself(standard action) move out of the area (movemet). use an action point to cast spectral image of yourself charred burned in unmoving on the floor (action point).  release the prestidigitation (free action).

#279 Fake your teamates death.
your teamate is next to death so you use prestidigitation to make it appearyoui just missed the attacker and hit your own team member with same "fireball"(minor action) your temate is probably scared out of his mind adding terafied screams to the effect. use ghost sound to whisper in his/her ear "its a ruse, play dead, don't move or say a word"(2nd minor insted of moving)  Cast invisibility on teamate (standerd) use action point to cast spectral image of your teamate chared body in the square on other side of teamate away from the attacker using the "fireball" as a screne, as if he/she crawled out of the fireball only to die a moment later.(action point).  release the prestidigitation (free action)

So... Dark sun is out with 10 new cantrips, called Wild Talent Cantrips.

They are called:
Body Equilibrium, which is to mitigate balancing and for moving on sand, mud or the like.
Far Hearing which enables you to hear from a space within a reasonable distance
Know Direction, which tells you which way is north
Mental Tools, which allows you to create encounter long items, though they cannot be used to hinder or attack.
Object Projection, which allows you to teleport something that you are holding to within 10 squares.
Psionic Image, which tricks nearby creatures into thinking that you are holding a small or smaller object.
Psionic Spark, which sets things on fire at a range of 5 (not attended objects or creatures)
Sensing Eye, which is the same as Far hearing but for sight in half the distance
Telekenetic Grasp, which is a toned down, but invisible mage hand
Thought Projection, which is as it sounds, though it allows pictures

The ones I have underlined are ones that I think can be used in interesting ways. For instance, Mental Tools doesn't state tools for what, and if you need to be experienced in its use. For instance, if you need to open a door in front of you, you could make thieves tools, but actually, why not make the key?

287: Make a key with Mental Tools to open the locked door.

288: Make a tool for building fires, nampha, set it on fire, and you have 5 minutes of fire. Alternatively, use that fire and Object Projection to set fire to something that the enemy is touching.

Psionic Spark: Now, I'd like to know, by RAW, are clothes ''carried''? If they are worn not carried then you can set the mage's robes on fire.

289: PS for instant fried mage/monk.

Also, what if a creature is flammable?

290: set the BBEG's hair on fire.

291: quick jam any mechanical components of the BBEG's toy

292: Do magic tricks for the kids with Psionic Image
