Water Magic in the Realm of Strife is the manifestation of the spiritual energy of the Realm of Stillness. Water magic innately seeks order, flowing through and around the turbulent nature of creation, to find the calmest and most stable of paths. This grants properties of aiding and healing that are far above the capacity of most other magics and as such Water Powers are often associated with peace and tranquility. However this should not be confused as weakness. If required Water Powers are quite capable of exerting immense forces, drawing on a depth of power that mortals cannot truly fathom.

If Water Magic has a weakness, it is found in how fiercely it seeks order, for stillness and calmness are the ultimate forms of order. When water becomes truly still it ceases to move all together and becomes ice. While Frost Powers are the result of Water Powers achieving perfect stillness, they carry with them a volatility that cannot be ignored. Frost powers sap the energy and life out of their surroundings, all the while expanding in razor sharp crystalline structures that are as beautiful as they are deadly. The volatile endothermic energy of Frost powers should never be handled lightly for it carries with it the ability to end all life itself in its mindless drive towards perfect order and stillness.

Passive Effects

Passive Effects for Water Magic are unique to each School of Powers:

Water Power Passives

Applies to Water powers only NOT Frost Powers

Water Damage

All direct damage caused by Water Powers is treated as magical damage that uses Elemental Resistance and inflicts Impact or Crushing Injuries

Water Pressure

After casting 4 Water powers in a row, the next water power cast has the casters choice of EITHER reducing the spirit cost by 20 (effectively making any power that costs 20 or less free) OR gaining +15% Critical Cast chance. The Water Pressure effect is then consumed.

Frost Power Passives

Volatile Powers

All Frost Powers are considered Volatile Powers

Deep Cold

The continued use of volatile frost powers puts the caster into a state of Deep Cold, increasing the chances of both miscasts and critical casts. Remaining in this state too long will cause the caster to freeze solid.

When 4 or more stacks of Volatile Frost energy are present on the caster, gain +15% to BOTH Critical Cast & Miscast
Upon reaching 8 stacks, the caster is frozen, and remains so for 2 rounds (unless dispelled or shattered)

Targets caught in the effect are automatically hit as elemental resistance is ignored however, they can resist the effects of the avalanche if passing a stamina test at a base -15 disadvantage with size modifier further applied as advantage or disadvantage. Any target that fails, as well as any loose objects, are knocked straight back until reaching the end length of the Avalanche. affected targets that fail a Dodge test are also knocked down and immbolized until they can be freed by their allies • while Immobilized targets suffer -5 Elemental Resist and may be subject to suffocation if their heads are buried (GM descretion) • each round spend channeling increases the length of the Avalanche by 5" as does combining the spell with a natural avalanche, further pushing targets whether immbolized or not • accumulated snow and ice persist after the channelling ends, but melt twice as fast due to heat or environmental factors • the area affected by Avalanche counts as difficult ground until fully melted • targets that are huge or larger may attempt a stamina test to resist being pushed by the avalanche • each channeling lasts for 10 seconds outside of combat	Channel Effects persist for 1 full round, typically inflicted at the beginning of the turn of any effected targets.

Plumb the Depths	yes	514	Elemental	Water	Water	Alteration	3	8	Reveal	instant	15	the casters magic reaches deep into any body of water, revealing what lies beneath and uncovering the unfathomable mysteries of the deep • this could simply give the caster an understanding of the bathymetry of the body of water, however if there are creatures, structures, or artifacts of magical origin the caster gains knowledge of them, and can channel their latent powers through the water to empower their spells • once cast the power passively remains in effect for up to 1 hour • effect extends in a 15" radius around the caster (even if they are moving), projected downwards in a column with no effective limit except that it terminates upon hitting solid matter • if anything magical in origin or nature exists within this column the casters powers cost 50% less spirit While the power is active, the caster may pull a target up from beneath the water to surface if uninterrupted for up to an hour (depending on the size of the target), at an additional cost of 0.5 spirit per 1" (5 feet) of depth multiplied by the widest dimension of the item (i.e. a sunken vessel 50 feet below surface and 20 feet long would cost 0.5104=20 spirit to pull up to surface)	Reveal reveals hidden mysteries of the spirit world, allowing the caster and/or allies to exploit this knowledge	Mage, Battlemage, Wizard, Druid, Shaman, Assassin, Runeweaver
Flood Seal	yes	523	Elemental	Water	Water	Destruction	4	14	Seal	5 minutes per Tier	3	Anyone attempting to break or tamper with the seal is struck by a heavy jet of water (use the Water Jet Missile Power, but increase its damage to 4d4) • if the seal is broken the jet of water does 2x damage and does not cease spraying for several minutes, potentially flooding an entire room or inundating a small area	Seal places a magical seal on an object (i.e. a door, chest, book, etc...) • can be visible or invisible • typically granted a single method of being safely opened or re-sealed (i.e. a command, incantation, gesture, key, etc..) • when incorrectly attempting to open the seal (i.e lock pick, incorrect command, etc..) there are typically minor effects to warn against further tampering • if the seal is broken through force or dispelled in any way it inflicts damage and effects to whoever broke it, any permanent or long term effects can typically be dispelled, or can be ended by using the same method that would have safely opened the seal • if scoring a critical cast at the time the seal is created, it stores twice the energy and will do double damage whenever it is finally broken • if the seals effects require an additional casting roll upon breaking it is with no modifiers and cannot critically cast or miscast	Mage, Battlemage, Wizard, Druid, Shaman, Assassin, Runeweaver
Tidebringer	yes	531	Elemental	Water	Water	Conjuration	5	25	Weapon	instant or action	self	Conjures a massive axe-like weapon that resembles a barnacle encrusted sea anchor or a viciously barbed fish hook • Tidebringer is treated as a large axe that inflicts 2d12 damage if wielded in 2 hands or 2d10 in one hand (or quasi-sentient) and has its own innate modifiers (even if quasi-sentient) of +20% Cleaving, -15 to hit Clumsy and +5% Critical miss chance • any Critical hit with Tidebringer automatically knocks the target back 1d4" (even if it would normally be immune to knock backs) and then hits the target with a free cast Tidal Shot (use casters modifiers unless quasi-sentient) • any Critical miss or Dodge sends the wielder (or the weapon itself if quasi-sentient) 1d4" in any random direction that would not cause a collision	Weapon can be cast an unlimited number of times, provided any Weapons from previous castings are no longer present • conjures a magical weapon that can be wielded (by caster only) like any weapon for its duration (must adhere to weapon proficiency rules) • conjuration lasts for 1 round +1/Tier of Caster (minutes if out of combat) or until dispelled/canceled/sheathed • critical casts do not conjure an additional weapon but instead extend the duration by +1 round • if used as an action, the weapon becomes quasi-sentient and can magically move (up to 4") and attack on its own (with no modifiers) • quasi-sentient weapons do not benefit from weapon or combat pecialiazations of the caster • quasi-sentient weapon conjurations automatically disappear if they move more than 8" away from the caster • weapon conjurations can be dispelled at any time	Mage, Battlemage, Wizard, Druid, Shaman, Assassin, Runeweaver
