*The damage reduction that Manifest Force provides is very potent, capable of exceeding [[Cage of Light]] and [[Minor Physical Protection]] outside of their specific niches (elemental and undead, respectively). The gotcha of the spell is its ablative nature. It'll protect you wonderfully from that first hit, but its protection can rapidly get stripped away. Comparing it to [[Psychic Shield]] or [[Shear]] in this regard is reasonable, and the perception message is similar in that it doesn't last for a set amount of time but rather a set amount of attacks.

Description: The Manifest Force pattern simply attempts to channel spell energy into a brute physical force. While it lacks the finesse necessary for any kind of assault or delicate manipulation, it can serve as an effective barrier against attacks. The barrier absorbs a portion of incoming blows, but suffers structural damage in the process.


Due to the physical and somewhat imprecise nature of this spell, the caster will find it easier to manage when casting on other people, although sufficient skill can help overcome this constraint. While the spell does not require active concentration from the caster, the structure of the pattern is such that recipients straying far from the caster will find the force loses its cohesion and collapses.

Effect: Unknown
Example Messaging: Casting: The air around you shimmers with a blinding yellow luminescence. The scintillating light writhes and twists, abruptly coalescing into a translucent field before blinking out of sight.

Power Perceiving: Your magical senses detect the Manifest Force spell surrounding you with a blinding yellow luminescence.

Protecting The air around you solidifies into a dull yellow haze, shimmering beneath the attack.

Barrier weakening: The force surrounding you shudders briefly.

Spell ending: The air around you shimmers with a weak yellow light that quickly disperses.

Devices/Tattoos: No devices or tattoos documented.
