Tremors (909)

Since mid-2015 there has been a considerable amount of development with Hot Summer Nights 2015, the Elemental Lore Review, and the Teleportation review.

Pages with this banner have been affected by development and are in various stages of update progress, but not yet complete.

Tremors causes the ground to begin to shake violently, making it hard to stand. The quake is followed by a series of aftershocks, which function identically. Everyone outside of the caster's group in the area is subject to a (probably level based) warding roll to remain standing. Any targets knocked down by Tremors will suffer a penalty to their EBP% of (5 + (seed 4 EL:E summation / 2))% for 10 seconds. Prone targets that would have failed the knock-down roll also receive said penalty.

Although this spells functions similarly to the Arcane spell Quake (1714), it is less disruptive in that it does not affect adjacent rooms.

Factors Affecting Tremors

• Level?

Self-Cast

Tremors can also be self-cast by preparing and then evoking the spell. This will imbue the caster with the 5 charges of Tremors. The caster can then STOMP the ground, causing a single set of tremors at a cost of 5 mana and one charge. The self-cast version of Tremors has a duration of 20 minutes + (Wizard Base ranks * 60 seconds). Re-evoking Tremors refreshes both the duration and the number of charges.

Characters can also use their weapon to cause the shockwave. Using TAP will cause a runestaff or similar weapon to summon the tremors, while characters equipped with a maul or other such weapon can POUND. No target should be used in either situation (i.e., POUND, do not POUND MAUL).

Earth Lore

Character with enough training in Elemental Lore, Earth will receive more charges when self-casting Tremors.

The base number of charges is 5, with a bonus charge for 20, 50, 90, 150, and 200 ranks.

Elemental Mana Control

Chararacters with enough Elemental Mana Control will expend less mana when using a charge of Tremors.

Base cost of 5 mana, -1 for 75 ranks of EMC, and another -1 for 150 ranks of EMC.
