Magic Art Skill Creation

This will apply to both Spells used by the player and Spells used by Summons. If this is used by Summons, ensure "Summon" is added as a pre-fix to the Spell Type -- Such as "Summon Offensive Spell"
+ Image: Place a URL of a 3:4 ratio image with it being wider than taller
+ Spell Name: Replace "SpellName" with the name of the Spell
+ Spell Description: Describe the Spell. What does it look like, how it's cast, and what does it do.  
+ Spell Library: Name the Magic Art Skill Library this belongs to.
+ Spell Rank: Will be either Ranks 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. The Rank will determine things such as damage, max projectile size, max range, max area, spell damage, and MP Cost/Maintain MP Cost.  
+ Spell Type: See below for more information
+ Spell Components: See below for more information
+ Spell Projectile Size: See below for more information
+ Spell Range: See below for more information
+ Spell Speed: All Spells will move at 0 Speed Tier (30 feet/sec)
+ Spell Area: See below for more information
+ Spell Damage: Spells deal damage depending on the rank of the Spell

+ Rank 1 Spell Damage: 2 damage
+ Rank 2 Spell Damage: 4 damage
+ Rank 3 Spell Damage: 6 damage
+ Rank 4 Spell Damage: 8 damage
+ Rank 5 Spell Damage: 10 damage

All Damage over Time will deal 1 damage per round for a duration equal to the damage of the spell x1.5. If you have a Rank 2 spell that does Damage Over Time, you will deal 1 damage for 4x1.5=6 rounds.

+ MP Cost: See above in Basic Rules
+ Maintain MP Cost: See above in Basic Rules
+ Duration: Anything that lasts for 1 post will require a duration. If the attack is instant, the attack is effect is instant. If something lasts for 2 rounds, the duration will be 2 rounds. Maintain MP Cost will be paid for the entire duration.

+ Offensive

Offensive Spells are only capable of dealing damage. Damage dealt will be determined by the Spell's Rank. All AoEs will have their damage reduced (explained later in Spell Area). In the event that you have a spell that has multiple hits, the damage is spread between all of the hits. (If you have a Rank 1 Spell that hits 4 times, each hit will deal 0.5 damage up to a maximum of 2 damage).
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Damage Over Time

Damage over Time (DoT) will deal damage over a long period of time. Damage over Time is capable of dealing small amounts of damage that cannot be absorbed by armor -- this includes things like poisons, bleeds, etc. All DoTs will deal 1 damage equal to the amount of damage the spell would deal (at base) x 1.5. So a Rank 2 Spell would normally deal 4 damage. A DoT can last for 6 rounds, dealing 1 damage each round. A target may only be affected by 1 DoT at a time. Dual-Typing with Offensive will reduce the duration to the 0.5x. A normal DoT for Rank 4 would last 8x1.5= 12. 12-8=4. So a Dual-Typed Offensive and DoT would deal damage and then deal 1 HP a round for 4 additional rounds.
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Magic Armor

A user is capable of creating a spell that applies Magic Armor on a target or on yourself. Doing so will apply a Temporary HP "shield" onto the target equal to the damage of the Spell. This Temporary HP will stack on top of your current HP and can exceed your maximum HP. All damage dealt to the target will deal damage to this Temporary HP. Temporary HP may have a maximum duration of 5 Rounds, disappearing whether the Magic Armor is broken or not. A target may only be affected by 1 Magic Armor at a time regardless of the source.
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Magic Barrier

This is considered a very specific type of area enchantment. This works similarly to a Magic Armor but protects an area of space rather than a specific target. A Magic Barrier, once placed, is unable to move. Magic Barrier uses the same area that an Area Enchantment can have. The amount of HP a Magic Barrier can have will be equivalent of the damage a spell of this rank can deal. The user may set rules on who/what can pass through a Magic Barrier -- otherwise, none that are on that list are capable of passing through the Magic Barrier. You may only be protected by a single Magic Barrier at a time.
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Counterspell

It is suggested to have counterspells of each rank. You can counter a spell that is being cast before it is executed with a simple Counterspell. In order to use a Counterspell, you are required to be able to see the spell being cast and to counter a spell before it is cast. Upon being able to see the spell being Cast, you can instant cast a Counterspell. A Counterspell will cost MP equal to: "Rank of the spell being countered + 2 MP". Your counterspell must be of equal or higher rank than the spell being countered. You may only Counter spells a maximum of 5x per fight -- regardless of how many Counterspell spells you own. You cannot Dual-Type a Counterspell with anything
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes -- Someone else may Counter your Counterspell

+ Healing Spells

Healing Spells heal your target's HP (and in turn CON). Every 2 HP healed = 1 CON healed. AoE Heals will suffer from the same penalty that all AoE spells encounter. You are capable of healing HP equal to the amount of damage a spell of that rank would do normally.
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Heal over Time

Heal over Time (HoT) will work exactly like a Damage over Time, but it will heal instead of deal damage. May only be affected by 1 HoT at a time regardless of source.
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Curative Spells

Curative Spells are used to cleanse status effects, either mental or physical. These spells will only cure effects of equal rank or lower. If an opponent caused a Rank 5 Bleed on a target, you are required to have a Rank 5 Curative Spell that cures Bleed in order to cleanse it. May only cleanse a single status effect. May Dual-Type with itself to cure up to 2 status effects.
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Buffing Spell

Used primarily to increase the stats of a target. See the Buffing Rules for more details. Cannot be Dual-Typed with Debuffing Spells, Negative Status Effect Spell, Item Disenchantment, Area Disenchantment and a Supplemental Spell Type.
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Debuffing Spell

Used primarily to decrease the stats of a target. See the Debuffing Rules for more details. Cannot be Dual-Typed with Buffing, Magic Armor, Magic Barrier, Healing, Heal over Time, Item Disenchantment, Area Disenchantment, and Supplementary Spell Types.
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Negative Status Effects Spell

These are spells that can cause a Negative Status Effect to a target. These can be effects such as paralysis, numbness, etc (effect is up to you). If the status effect has a Damage over Time type, the spell must be Dual-Typed with Damage over Time.

Spell DC
The Spell's DC will be the hurdle that the target must overcome in order to ward off this Negative Status Effect. If the target has lower points in the stat, then they will be affected. You will state the DC in the Description after explaining what the status effect does.
+ Rank 1 Spell DC:  2 DC
+ Rank 2 Spell DC:  6 DC
+ Rank 3 Spell DC:  10 DC
+ Rank 4 Spell DC:  14 DC
+ Rank 5 Spell DC:  18 DC

Saving Throw Stats
+ Crowd Control and Binds: Crowd Control and Binds can force someone to be moved to a location that they don't want to go such as a pop-up, knockback, etc -- The Saving Throw will either be STR or DEX. Bind will stop movement -- whether of parts of the body or stop a person from moving in general -- The saving throw will be STR or DEX.  
+ Affecting the Physical Body: If a spell effect affects the physical body, CON will be the saving throw.
+ Affecting the Mind: If a spell effect affects the mind, INT will be the saving throw.
+ Magic Draining Effects: Anything that affects the magic pool of a target, WIS will be the saving throw.  
+ Affecting Emotions: If a spell effect affects the target's emotions (force change of emotions and mind control such as charm), CHA will be the saving throw.  

So creating a spell that deals a knockback effect. If you create a Rank 5 Spell that applies a 100 foot knockback to the target, their saving throw will be 18 DC vs STR/DEX of the target(s) affected.
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Item Enchantment

You may temporarily enchant an item such as Weapons, Armor, and Jewelry.
+ Weapon Enchantment: All Elemental-based enchantment will grant the weapon +1 damage of that element. The user may also enchant the weapon with another offensive-based enchantment.
+ Armor Enchantment: All Elemental-based enchantment will grant the armor -2 damage to that particular element. The user may also enchant the armor with another defensive-based enchantment.
+ Jewelry Enchantment: Jewelry Enchantments can be used to increase the target's stats equal to buffing the target via the Buffing Rules.
All Enchantments last until they are Disenchanted or they will last rounds equaling 2xRank (so a Rank 5 will last for 10 rounds). You may not place an Enchantment on a True Magic Item. An item may not be enchanted if it's already affected by an Enchantment. All enchantments require the user to touch the item in order to enchant them.
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Item Disenchantment

The user is capable of disenchanting specific items. This can apply to both Temporary Enchantments and Enchantments already placed on the item. The user must have a Disenchantment spell equal or higher rank than the Enchantment being disenchanted. (You are required to have a Rank 4 Disenchantment in order to disenchant a Rank 1, 2, 3, and 4 Enchantment -- cannot disenchant a Rank 5 Enchantment.)
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Area Enchantment

Unlike an Item Enchantment, you're capable of affecting a static area with an Enchantment. This can be anything from affecting the weather to creating a magical arena where people can't escape etc etc. The effects of an Area Enchantment are entirely up to you. All Area Enchantments are REQUIRED to be Dual-Typed. This can be dual-typed with DoT, HoT, Buff, Debuff, Negative Status Effect, Transformation. When Dual-Typing with Area Enchantment, it will not suffer the -1 Rank penalty for Dual-Typing. The maximum area of an Area Enchantment is increased by 3x. The Area Enchantment cannot move and only 1 Area Enchantment may be active in an area at any one time. The user may only maintain 1 Area Enchantment at a time. Area Enchantments will always be maintained and will apply the effect to everyone within it.
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Area Disenchantment

This is used as a counter to to Area Enchantments. The user must be within an Area Enchantment in order to disenchant the Area Enchantment. The user must have an Area Disenchantment of equal or higher rank in order to Disenchant the Area Enchantment.
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Transformation Spells

Transformation spells can either be used as a Good Status Effect or a Bad Status Effect. This can range from altering your own physiology to grant you bonus effects to polymorphing an enemy into something harmless like a rat. Transformation does not naturally grant buffs nor debuffs unless it dual-typed with Buffs/Debuffs respectively. Transformations, however, can be used to change parts or completely change the user's/target's body. What it does is completely up to you. This will also use the same Saving Throws stated in Negative Status Effects. Good Status Effects will be required to be maintained. Bad Status Effects will only last a maximum of 1xRank and must have some kind of reversion condition -- (Such as polymorph will be cancelled upon the target taking any damage from an outside source -- meaning the polymorphed target cannot damage themselves to revert to their original form).
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Supplemental Spells

These are generally non-combat spells. These can be quite powerful if used correctly. Things such as creating a magical lock, breaking the magical lock, creating the ability to throw your voice, etc etc. While not useful in a fight, can be extremely useful in roleplay in general.
Able to Counterspell?:  Yes

+ Verbal Spell Component

The Verbal Spell Component requires your character to speak out a magical phrase in order for your spell to be formed. This phrase must be spoken in one of the languages that the user knows. All verbal spells have a cast time of 3 seconds. This is reduced by -0.10 seconds for every 1 point to intelligence the user has to a minimum of 0.50 seconds.
Stopping Factor:
+ If the user cannot breathe, they cannot cast Verbal Spell Components
+ If the user is affected by a Mute Effect
+ If the user is gagged and their words cannot be clearly heard.

+ Somatic Spell Component

The user performs hand gestures with at least 1 hand in order to perform a spell. This gesture allows the user to integrate and manipulate the Weave in order to form their spell. All somatic spells have a gesturing time of 3 seconds. This is reduced by -0.10 seconds for every 1 point to Dexterity the user has to a minimum of 0.50 seconds.
Stopping Factor:
+ If the user does not have at least 1 hand available.
+ If the user doesn't have any hands.
+ If the user is unable to move their arms and hands.

+ Medium Spell Component

This requires the use of a Runestone Medium in order to use the Medium Spell Component. This can be a Runestone Medium held in the hand or attached to an item. If a Runestone Medium is attached to an item, that entire item is considered a Medium. You may only use a Runestone Medium on a spell of equal or higher rank of the spell being cast (You would need a Rank 3 Runestone Medium to cast Rank 3 and below spells. You would need a Rank 4 Medium in order to use Rank 4 Medium Spells, etc). Each spell used through the medium will reduce the amount of charges in the Runestone Medium by 1 permanently (or until it is recharged by a Runic Mason). The spell is cast through the Runestone Medium and may harm the user if their Runestone Medium isn't exposed (as in under clothing/armor/in a bag).
Stopping Factor:  
+ Not having a Runestone Medium
+ Broken Runestone Medium
+ Runestone Medium has 0 Charges.
+ Not having the proper rank of Runestone Medium
+ Runestone Medium is obstructed.

+ Lifeforce Spell Component

Considered a forbidden Spell Component as this deals damage to your lifeforce. Generally used by those to perform a massive all-or-nothing spell. The user will sacrifice 1 Constitution in order to perform the spell. This sacrifice is permanent for the remainder of the thread and cannot be regained by any means throughout the thread and requires 1 long rest. As a result, this will also deal 2 damage to the user that can never be regenerated for the duration of the thread. The user may spend up to 3 Constitution to grant the user 1 Spell Point each Constitution used. This will grant a Spell Point regardless of if the user has 1 Spell Component or not.  
Stopping Factor:
+ May not use this Spell Component on healing spells that heals the user. It will ignore healing the user (but may still heal everyone else if this is an AoE heal).
+ If the user's Con reaches 0 as a result of this spell, the user will instantly die.   

+ Rooted Spell Component

The user is capable of using this spell component. While doing this, the user is incapable of moving their feet at all during the cast.   
Stopping Factor:
+ Being moved
+ User not being on their feet and on solid ground
