Evocation

Written on paper-thin slices of dragonscale this book can withstand the harshest of conditions. However it has still been worn by the ages. The harsh lines of Draconic in this tome detail the magic of dragons.

Cantrip: Elemental Blast
Slow
You may throw one of the 7 destructive magics as a blast of energy, as if it were a regular ranged weapon with no tags, you may use your INT or CHA in place of DEX. The attack deals 1d8 damage of your choice of; Fire, Cold, Lightning, Acid, Plague, Thunder or Light.

Destructive Spells

Destruction magic functions differently to the way most spells do, they are flexible in a way, their simple nature allows for casters to adapt the spell to the situation.
Instead of spells you have Forms and Elements. Each element has a unique effect on the spell, while each form changes how the spell is expressed.
When taking a single spell from this list chose a single Form, being able to cast it with any Element.

Element

The elements effects can be negated or reduced by certain effects, eg. dousing yourself in water, drinking an antidote, redirecting the lightning with a metal cable.

1. Fire: Damaged targets take an additional [dice] damage and also become Burning.

2. Cold: Creates icy ground, in the area of the spell + a [dice]×5ft radius, characters who walk through the icy ground must save or fall prone and end their movement ℗ and take 1d6 damage (f).

3. Lightning: The attack chains, dealing half damage to [dice] additional targets in close range of a each other. Spreads in water and damages all characters standing in the water.

4. Acid: The attack also reduces the enemies armor by [dice].

5. Thunder: The attack knocks the target(s) back [dice]×5ft and deafens them.

6. Plague: The attack also reduces the targets maximum health by [sum] (after dealing damage) until they recover.

7. Light: The attack also blinds the target until the end of their next turn.
