Aquamancy is the specialization of the element of water and may only be learned in New Celest, for it draws its power from the Pool of Stars. Water is a healing and benevolent force which is reflected by the spellcraft of Aquamancers, who can control large bodies of water as their demesne.

Waterbourne

Your affinity to water is so great that you can survive within it no matter what the circumstances, even if it is stilled. Additionally, you will be able to sleep in watery environments.

This also will allow you to DIVE and RISE to the deep ocean levels as well as avoiding strong ocean currents.


Hailstorm

Syntax:
AQUACAST HAILSTORM
Damage Type: 50% blunt, 50% cold

Damage Source: Magical

The skies will open up with a fierce storm of hailstones, which will smash down upon all your enemies in the room, except the Aquamancer who cast it.

Flood

Syntax:
AQUACAST FLOOD

AQUACAST FORCEFLOOD

Power: 1 (Pool of Stars)

You may temporarily flood almost any environment, turning it into a watery location. If a location is currently the demesne of any druid or mage, you can FORCE it and break the meld in that location.

Meld

Syntax:
AQUACAST MELD

AQUACAST SENSE
AQUACAST WATCH ON/OFF
AQUACAST DISSOLVE
AQUACAST DAMPEN <effect>
DEMESNE CENTER
DEMESNE

The primary power of aquamancy is to build your own watery demesne. By creating a MELD between the water in a location and yourself, you thus build your demesne. Each new MELD must be adjacent to another. While in your demesne, you can SENSE who is trodding your waters and WATCH who enters and leaves. To check on its status, DEMESNE will show you where its center is, and what powers are curently active and how long they will last. DEMESNE CENTER will change the center of your demense to the current room. You can DISSOLVE your demesne at any time.

Influence

Within your own demesne, you will find your ability of influence to be more effective.

Deluge

Syntax:
AQUACAST DELUGE [DEMESNE]

This can be cast in a single water location or throughout your demesne. By releasing a deluge of heavy rain, the level of water will rise, forcing anyone to swim in order to move.

Center

Syntax:
AQUACAST CENTER

From anywhere in your demesne, you can instantly transport to the center of your demesne. If you are outside your demesne, but on the same plane and terrain type as your demesne, you may teleport back to the center of your demesne at a cost of two power.

Stillwater

Syntax:
AQUACAST STILLWATER [DEMESNE]

This can be cast in a single water location or throughout your demesne. By extracting the oxygen from water, you make any waterbreathing abilities, either natural or magical, useless. This has no effect on those with fluidswim who can keep their head above water.

Whirlpool

Syntax:
AQUACAST WHIRLPOOL

This must be cast in a location with water. You create a powerful whirlpool around yourself, and anyone in an adjacent water-logged and demesned location may be pulled towards you. When leaving your location, your enemies may find themselves unable to swim against the force of the whirlpool.

Dissolve

You can dissolve the aura of protection around those who are using it to escape some of the powers of your demesne. This requires balance but not equilibrium and is a very fast attack.

Turtle
