Official Move Approval IV

[The Humble Sage]

Failed Magician: dash of frost-rime (600 Om: Ranged Proficiency, Debuff Proficiency)



[spoiler][/spoiler]

This invocations, if properly cast, projects a beam of crystal blue frost, which immobilizes the target upon contact in a thin coating of ice. The Sage is not able to properly cast the spell, unfortunately, and so the spell manifests instead as a small bolt which streaks towards the target. If it hits, the target feels their limbs stiffen and tighten. They are not prevented from moving, but their reflexes are dulled and their movements made less fluid (like if all their limbs simultaneously fell asleep)
If the Sage instead manages to hit the target in a place where they are contacting a surface (such as their feet, or a hand if they are leaning against a wall), instead of affecting the target’s reflexes, they will find that they have trouble removing the limb in question from the surface it touches. They are not actually prevented from moving the limb in question, but doing so requires a surprising amount of their concentration.
This spell is quick to cast, (approximately 1.5 seconds) does not require maintained concentration, the missle flying with the same speed and range as a thrown javelin. Its effects tend to last between 5 and 10 seconds depending on the strength (ATK) of the target. If the Sage uses this move more than two or three times in close succession he runs the risk of draining his manapool.


Failed Magician: burden blade (600 Om: Ranged Proficiency, Debuff Proficiency)



[spoiler][/spoiler]

This spell is less flashy than the other two, but in the hands of a skilled caster, can increase the weight of weapons or armor to the point that their wielders can barely lift them. The Sage does not possess this level of ability, so instead he can only minorly affect his opponent. A bright violet octahedron appears in the Sage's hand, floating slightly above the surface of his palm. A bead of brighter light traces patterns across the edges of the polyhedron, its trail fading as it bounces about the shape. The Sage can use this spell to minimally increase the weight of an opponent’s weapon or equipment, throwing off their timing, and slightly decreasing the effectiveness of their attacks. This spell takes five seconds to cast, after which the Sage focuses on the item or items in question, which take on a very faint violet hue. The Sage can maintain the spell for up to 15 seconds before running out of mana.
This spell does not require too much concentration, and the Sage can maintain it while using other moves, unless something else requires or otherwise interferes with his concentration. In addition, the way this spell works it may be cast without being immediately activated but can remain untriggered in the Sage's hand for a maximum of 10 seconds, waiting for the appropriate moment. The Sage can focus on an object or objects to a maximum of 15 meters away.
Instead of choosing to slightly affect multiple pieces of equipment a person has, the Sage can instead direct all of the spells power towards a single weapon or other piece of equipment held by his target. The object in question glows a very obvious violet, and the bead of light traces its pattern at a much faster rate in this variety of the spell. This version requires the Sage to remain stationary and needs all of his concentration, but pulls the item in question towards the ground with approximately 10 kilograms of force. The Sage can only maintain this version of the spell for a maximum of 4 seconds, after which time his mana is completely drained.



Changes noted in bold. I totally meant for Burden Blade to be ranged, I don't know why it said physical proficiency...

Thanks for looking these over Markashi!
