Mists of Decay
Magister's of the Amethyst are a strange bunch. They claim not to be death mages, hate the title of necromancer, yet they do work with rot and decay, that is an undeniable truth of Entropy itself.
Effect
Basic Effects: Weaving the thick sludge like essence of Lobhadh, drawing the little bits you can from all around you, you draw them all forth, manifesting as a grey-purple haze briefly enveloping the entire effected area. Any object within the area takes 3d6 necrotic damage immediately, and an additional 1d6 necrotic damage if it is still there upon your turn. Any creature within must make a Toughness Defense Test. On a failed Test, they take 2d6 Necrotic damage, and gain 1 rank of exhaustion. On a successful test, creatures within only take half damage and do not accumulate a level of exhaustion.
Creatures that begin their turn in the affected area must make a Toughness Defense Test as well. If they fail, they take 1d6 Necrotic damage and gain a level of exhaustion. A successful Defense Test ignores entirely this secondary effect.
The mist also obscures, acting as partial cover to any creature within it, or any creature being targeted through the haze itself, like from one side to the other. Any and all attacks against targets within the haze are against the Momentum.
Mortalize: If any creature affected is a Nightmare, Undead or Construct, they do not apply any immunities or resistances to this spell-form.

Manifestation
Gregori watched with grim satisfaction as the entropic mist came into the Material Realm, feeling the slow flow of Lobhadh through him. He heard the ravening beastmen, could see the gnolls forms, their ragged wheezes and sapped forms obvious to him. They would, in due course, be out of the battle, their own bodies betraying them, wasting away within the Mist of Decay.
