What's it called? Old Bellicus' Brazen Knuckles (in brief, OBBK)
What does it do? The spell actually turns your knuckles into brass, which means that your pulls and punches will greatly increase the damage they give. Essentially, then, it acts as a boost for unarmed combat, which a priori could be a sound election for a wizard (lower burden, more hits and, with this spell, a bit more damage).
The problems with the spell are quite a few, though, making it effectively useless. Its effects are extremely short lasting (with well over guildmax and requirements, the Knuckles don't last even for a minute. A duration similar to other spells -cfs. Stacklady's- would be necessary just to make it worthwhile), and there's the danger of very easily killing yourself with it, if you re-cast the spell again while still under the effects of the first cast: your whole body will turn to brass and stop breathing.
Overall, then, not a bad concept, but it needs some tweaking and improving.
Where is it? As it touches on transmutations into minerals and metals, it fits beside the other spells of Thee Dyscyplyne of thee Stoane grimoire, at the Unseen University Library.
What does it require? A brass ring, which is consumed in the process.
What skills do I need? Evoking, Binding, Earth, Fire, Binding (2)
Has it worked? The proper output should read something like this:
You prepare to cast Old Bellicus' Brazen Knuckles.
You inspect your hands.
You touch each knuckle to your lips.
You place a brass ring on one finger and remember the solidity of the earth beneath you.
You mutter to your knuckles and the ring that they might like to become better acquainted.
You do something cunning to the molecular structure of the ring.
The ring softens and flows, the metal sinking into your knuckles.
Your knuckles become brassy, and seem to hum very faintly.
