Elemental Wall
This spell form is a powerful one, though a difficult and focused effort. It is one that is an excellent tactical and strategic spell, as well as a great defensive option. Many are the war-mage across all Orders whom have used this in a pinch to change the very momentum and flow of an engagement, or even to allow a rapid retreat.
This symbol, universally recognized for its size and strength, is merely a connected and repeating capital 'V' that extends as far as one means for the wall of energy they will be calling forth to extend, placed within the Aether at the appropriate corresponding location you wish the manna to surge forth into the Material Realm. Forming this linguistic symbol is a practiced effort of symmetry, precision and pattern repetition.
Effect
Spell Rank: 4
Casting Time: 2 Actions
Target: Up to 30 foot line within range.
Duration: Upkeep (1 Action), Up to 1 hour.
Range: 500 feet
Basic Effects: Weaving the manna through yourself and the Aether, you focus all your will on forcing and exerting a sheer curtain or wall of manna to manifest in the target area on the Materium. This volatile energy manifests to a maximum height of 50 feet, or goes from floor to ceiling in spaces of less height. This elemental wall will manifest itself differently depending upon the Order you are of, though its basic effects are the same. It presents a 10 foot thick barrier of raw elemental force given form, something very dangerous to pass through. Any creature that attempts to pass through this barrier takes 3d6 damage per 5 feet moved of the appropriate elemental damage based on your Order. How this wall manifests is tied to the Order you are from, so the manna you utilize, but is unique to each Magister as well. Topaz for example, may seem a mostly solid stone or earthen wall, but the crevasses and tunnels through it roar with the thunderous cacophony of a landslide, assaulting any whom would dare enter it as well as slowing their movement (counting as difficult terrain). Amethyst meanwhile, could seem a rippling violet mist within which all living things begin to rapidly decay.
Heightened (+1): This is one of the most modular spell-forms that are universal, a unique thing about it. For every rank beyond 4th that you choose to cast it, you choose to do one of the following;
