__TOC__
'''Slow''' is a [[warding]] spell that makes the air around a victim denser, slowing down the target's actions and causing an instant 3 seconds of [[roundtime]] (RT).  The degree of the effect is dependent upon a caster's skill and on the total roundtime of the effort the victim is attempting.

Training in [[#Lore Benefits|Elemental Lore, Air]] will unlock an [[open cast]] version of the spell and will also increase the RT effect on the target.

Your spell is ready.
You gesture at a krag yeti.
