Primal spells allow mages to harness the power of the elements to deal damage to their enemies.

Fire Spells

Flaming Weapons Flaming Weapons

While this spell is active, the caster enchants the party's melee weapons with flame so that they deal additional fire damage with each successful attack.


Fireball Fireball

The caster's hands erupt, sending forth an explosive ball of flame, inflicting lingering fire damage on all targets in the area as well as knocking them off their feet unless they pass a physical resistance check. Friendly fire possible.

Inferno Inferno

The caster summons a huge column of swirling flame. All targets in the area take constant fire damage as they burn. Friendly fire possible.


This spell can be cast on creatures or locations not in line of sight.  A mage can cast this spell on creatures in a different room when using the overhead view.  This allows the mage to stay out of physical harm by staying out of reach of those creatures.

Earth Spells

Rock Armor Rock Armor

The caster's skin becomes as hard as stone, granting a bonus to armor for as long as this mode is active.


Stonefist Stonefist

The caster hurls a stone projectile that knocks down the target and inflicts nature damage, possibly shattering those that have been petrified or frozen solid. Friendly fire is possible.


Earthquake Earthquake

The caster disrupts the earth, causing a violent quake that knocks everyone in the targeted area to the ground every few seconds, unless they pass a physical resistance check. Friendly fire possible.

Petrify Petrify

The caster draws from knowledge of the elements to turn the target into stone unless it passes a physical resistance check. While petrified, the target is immobile and vulnerable to shattering from a critical hit. Creatures already made of stone are immune.


Cold Spells

Winter's Grasp Winter's Grasp

The caster envelops the target in frost, freezing lower-level targets solid. Those that resist suffer a penalty to movement speed.

●  The spell does not require direct line of view with the target, so can be exploited by triggering the war without enemy noticing you and attacking, and then Winter's Grasping them behind a wall with no actual fighting taking place.


Frost Weapons Frost Weapons

While this mode is active, the caster enchants the party's weapons with frost so that they deal additional cold damage with each melee attack.


Cone of Cold Cone of Cold

The caster's hands erupt with a cone of frost, freezing targets solid unless they pass a physical resistance check, and slowing their movement otherwise. Targets frozen solid by Cone of Cold can be shattered with a critical hit. Friendly fire possible.


Blizzard Blizzard

An ice storm deals continuous cold damage to everyone in the targeted area and slows their movement speed while granting bonuses to defense and fire resistance. Targets can fall or be frozen solid unless they pass a physical resistance check. Friendly fire possible.

This spell can be cast on creatures or locations not in line of sight.  A mage can cast this spell on creatures in a different room when using the overhead view.  This allows the mage to stay out of physical harm by staying out of reach of those creatures.

●  The damage from Blizzard is applied in a special way. Instead of directly applying the damage at each interval, an Over Duration-type effect is applied.

Electrical Spells

Lightning Lightning

The caster fires a bolt of lightning at a target, dealing electricity damage. Friendly fire possible.


Shock Shock

The caster's hands erupt, emitting a cone of lightning, damaging all targets in the area. Friendly fire possible.


Tempest Tempest

The caster unleashes a fierce lightning storm that deals constant electricity damage to anyone in the targeted area. Friendly fire possible.

Chain Lightning Chain Lightning

The caster's hands erupt, emitting a bolt of lightning that inflicts electricity damage on a target, then forks, sending smaller bolts jumping to those nearby, which fork again. Each fork does less damage than the previous. Friendly fire possible.
