Galecaster

Overview

This magical line of knowledge has evolved over the centuries. Starting out as the ‘wise people of the forest,’ this particular brand of magic is concerned with manipulating elements. Past historical texts mention village ‘wise men’ or ‘wise women’ who were able to help during droughts and other natural disasters. These magics eventually formalized into ‘Galecasters’ when numerous elven armies hired them to ensure their ships sailed across the seas in a timely manner. There are no actual founders of galecasting - mages wishing to master this line of magic must find a Master Galecaster to study under. Galecasting can take years to master, although young prodigies have been known to exist. Galecaster Prospero Sputton is a famous Master Galecaster - and taught seven separate apprentices over his lifetime. These apprentices carried on his work, and four of whom are currently still alive and working on developing additional magics. Master Galecasters Jacinta Prewett, Marcus Cowl, Barry Kay, and Bridget Olean are considered the current experts in their fields.

Spells

Tier One Spells

Name	Spell	Cooldown	Action Type
Windstorm	Casters can channel air currents summoned from around them in a specific direction; able to knock someone back by 4 blocks or used passively to move items and even ships. This ability may be used freely outside of combat.	2 turns	Action
Windtunnel	Casters can create a tunnel of wind that may reflect a ranged attack back to the original attacker, utilizing their Mystics Total against their Dexterity Total. If successful, the damage is diluted due to the redirection of speed, dealing only 1d4 damage. If the redirection fails, no damage is done to either party.	30 minutes	Reaction
Air Ball	The Caster creates a ball of condensed air they can hover on. While utilizing this spell, the Caster is able to navigate any obstacle on the ground without triggering any traps or taking any damage from ground based effects. This increases their Movement Speed by 2 Blocks per turn and lasts for a total of four turns.	3 hours	Action

Tier Two Spells

Name	Spell	Cooldown	Action Type
Thunderous Clap	Casters now wield a refined form of storm sorcery through their manipulation of air currents, allowing them to manipulate clouds and lightning precisely. This may be utilized to create storms and harsher winds in a scene. Casters may clap their hands together, encasing their hands in a surge of lightning that applies a thunderclap of force upon striking, gaining a +2 Strength, Dexterity, or Mystic Bonus. This lasts for two turns.	Once per day	Action
Electric Whip	A spell that enables the manipulation of static in the air to become malleable. The static will continue to obey the caster as long as they maintain concentration and do not take any other actions. If used combatively, the caster can turn the latent static energy in the air into visible lightning as whips, aim at anyone within One-Handed Melee Combat distance, and roll their Mystic Total score against the target's Dexterity Total to hit. When the caster successfully hits the target, they roll a 1d8 for damage. If successful, the whip may bind the target which deals an additional 1d3 damage each turn and the target must roll a contested Strength or Dexterity Total roll of whichever is higher to break free. While bound, the caster cannot attack. The threshold to break free is a roll of 5 or above.	Once per combat	Action
Cloudburst	This spell conjures a rain cloud directly above the caster, maneuverable to any location within emote range. The storm expands up to 10 blocks from its centre and persists as long as the caster maintains focus. Additionally, within the 10 block area, all individuals bar the caster experience Disadvantage in all rolls, the heavy rain and strikes of lightning throwing their focus. However, the spell terminates if the caster sustains any damage or initiates a new action.	Once per day	Action

Tier Three Spells

Name	Spell	Cooldown	Action Type
Inner Tempest	Galecasters harness the ability to summon and imprison potent storms within themselves. The Caster is able to charge the potentia inside of them for specified durations, building up the danger they pose. This Ability stops the Caster from doing any other action for the total duration it takes to charge but may still utilize their Dexterity Total to defend against attacks as necessary. Upon release, the storm's vigour and reach are dictated by the time spent in creation: Four turns: Targets up to Emote range Three turns: Targets up to 10 blocks Two turns: Targets up to 3 blocks When unleashed, all enemies within the designated range are attacked at once. The Caster rolls their Mystic Total at Advantage against the opponent's Dexterity Total. Upon a successful strike, each enemy hit takes 1d12 Damage. However, this depletes the user in the process, putting this Ability on Cooldown.	Once per week	Action
Stormcloak	The Caster may shroud an ally of their choice or themselves in a dark cloud, allowing them to make Movement without incurring any Opportunity Attacks against them to reposition within a 10 block radius from where they were.	Once per combat	Action
Stunning Grasp	The Caster may target 2 individuals within a 5 block range of each other from a distance of 10 blocks, enveloping them in a burst of static electricity and drawing them together, tensing up their muscles and preventing any action for one turn.	2 hours	Action
