Clerics and magic-users gain the ability to cast orisons/cantrips respectively, as described in the below links. Elves do not gain cantrips, but can add an appropriate "elf-spell" to their spellbook at first level.

First Level Spells (magic-user/elf)

LEAP
Range: Touch
Duration: 1 turn
Effect: leap long distance

This spell empowers an individual with one opportunity to leap a long distance. For every two levels of the caster the spell allows the affected individual to leap up to 20' forward, 10' backward or 5' straight upward, cumulative. Thus *leap* cast by a 1st or 2nd level magic-user allows the recipient to leap up to 20' forward, 10' backwards or 5' upwards while a 5th or 6th level magic-user would allow a leap of up to 60' forward, 30' backwards or 15' upwards. Horizontal leaps forward or backward are in a slight arc - about 2' per 10' of distance travelled. The *leap* spell does not insure any safety in landing or grasping at the end of the leap (and remember that what goes up must come back down...) The leap must be completed within 1 turn after the spell is cast, for after that period has elapsed the spell wears off.

RAINBOW ATTACK
Range: 10'/level
Duration: 1 round
Effect: Bathes area with a rainbow of colours

Upon casting this spell, the magic-user causes a bright rainbow of colours to descend out of the sky and bathe a designated 20' x 20' square in a riot of colour. Up to 1d6 creatures within the area of effect may be affected by the attack. Affected creatures whose level or number of hit dice is less than or equal to that of the spell caster will be struck unconscious for 2d4 minutes due to sensory overload. If their level or hit dice is 1 or 2 greater than the spell caster, they will be blinded by the colours for 1d4 minutes. All other affected creatures are stunned - reeling and unable to think clearly or act - for 1d4 rounds. All creatures above the level of the spell caster and all creatures of 5th level or 5 or more hit dice are entitled to a saving throw versus the *Rainbow Attack* spell.
