The prime skill of all mages is to master the primal elements of earth, wind, fire and water. Once mastery is complete, the goal of every mage is to move on to specialize in the one element associated with their city's nexus of power.

Sense

If you can survey a location, you will be able to sense whether or not an elemental is infused in that room. You can also sense any runes or dream motes infused at that location.


Blast

Syntax
CAST BLAST <target>
Damage Type: 100% Fire

Can target both adventurers and denizens.

Attack your target with a blast of pure elemental power.


Cleanse

Syntax
CAST CLEANSE [<target>]

Create refreshing, cleansing water to bathe in, washing away unwanted odours for ourself or for another.

Additional Notes:
Cures Cleanse Cured Afflictions.

Scry

Syntax
CAST SCRY <target>

Create a scrying mirror with a handful of water and reveal the location of another adventurer.


Gust

Syntax
CAST GUST [<target> <direction>]

By channeling the element of air, you can either blow a fog or cloud out of the room, or blow a target in a particular direction.


Dig

Syntax
CAST DIG

Manual labour is a thing of the past for the mage who can simply command the earth to expose its hidden treasures.


Levitate

Syntax
CAST LEVITATE

Make yourself light as a feather and lift yourself up on a cushion of air, making yourself immune from falling damage.


Stoneskin

Syntax
CAST STONESKIN
Damage Resistance: 2/10 to Blunt and Cutting

This incantation coats much of your body in stone, providing some protection against physical attacks.


Waterbreathe

Syntax
CAST WATERBREATHE

You can create a magical mask over your mouth which will filter oxygen from water and allow you to breathe underwater without consequence.


Firewall

Syntax
CAST FIREWALL <direction>

Channeling the power of elemental fire, you will create walls of burning flame that singe your enemies.


Geyser

Syntax
CAST GEYSER AT <target>

CAST GEYSER <direction>

Using this ability, you may knock your target out of the trees or skies with a powerful spout of elemental water.


If cast in a direction, it will douse any firewalls that may be there.


Elementshield

Syntax
CAST ELEMENTSHIELD
Works on/against: Self

Damage Resistance: 1/8 to Fire, Cold, and Electricity

Surround yourself with a magical shield that absorbs some damage from elemental damage such as fire, cold, and electricity. This shield will also provide a slight benefit against the effects of extreme hot and cold weather.


Doorblast

Syntax
CAST DOORBLAST <direction>

Locked doors will not stop the diligent mage who can summon a wind to blow it open. Some doors will resist attempts to be blasted open while others will be altogether impossible to open with this spell.


Fog

Syntax
CAST FOG

With the powers of air and water, you can obfuscate a room with elemental fog.


Magelock

Syntax
CAST MAGELOCK <direction>

Needs "description"!


Freeze

Syntax
CAST FREEZE <GROUND|target>

Cast at the ground, you will create a layer of ice to cover the area, causing passersby to slip occasionally. This frost is also powerful enough to put out a wildfire in your location.


When cast at another person, you will first clear off the Fire potion defense if your target has one on, then cause him or her to shiver uncontrollably, before finally freezing them stiff.


Trance

Vitals Modification: 5/10 mana

So great is your link with the Elemental Plane that you receive a 5/10 bonus to mana.


Icewall

Syntax
CAST ICEWALL <direction>

This spell will create a wall of elemental ice, blocking the passage of those who would seek to pass by.


Ignite

Syntax
CAST IGNITE <target>

CAST IGNITE <ice/briarwall> AT <direction>
CAST IGNITE GROUND (to melt frozen ground)

Damage Type: 100% Fire

Damage Source: Magical

You can ignite a hapless target, thaw frozen ground or destroy ice/briar walls with the fury of elemental fire.


Gate

Syntax
TRANSVERSE <plane>

You can travel to or from the elemental realms from any planar gate.


Master
