Valid Spell Target: Self, CREATURE, AREA
Description: The Shockwave spell summons the winds of Elanthia, boosts their strength, then pushes them outward in a ring of force from the caster. Because this disrupts the natural pattern of winds in the area, the spell cannot be cast again for a short while. The winds created by the Zephyr spell, however, will both remove the waiting period and strengthen the matrix of the spell. A Veil of Ice or Mantle of Flame spell on the caster will be expelled outward and cause elemental damage to those who are in combat with the caster.
