Description / Roleplay Properties

Allows the user to conjure and shoot powerful energy blasts.

Aether is channeled into flowing aura— a reflection of one’s soul. The colour and texture of an energy blast will vary depending on the user, the smell and particle effects will also depend on the user. A user can expel Ardor from either their hands or mouth.

When a foe is struck— they will feel the force of the blast along with warmth, and/or applicable scents. Repeated strikes can result in burn-like effects, rashes, or scrapes.

Energy blasts can come in different sizes— its size determines its power. Larger blasts take longer to charge.

• Min size: 4cm in diameter (extra effects like particles and smoke can extend beyond this range). Charge time: 0.5 seconds.
• Speed: up to 70 km/ph. Blast must remain in motion or it will dissipate.
• Distance: Blasts can travel up to 50m before they begin to dissipate.
• Characters can only conjure one blast at a time.
