Description:	The spell self-consciously named Worm's Mist reveals to all gods-fearing men the monstrous nature of the Necromancers' so-called Transcendental path. It enflames the skin and causes the pores to expel a miasma with the stench of rotten meat. Wriggling forms, like crimson maggots, can be seen feeding upon the cloud or even burrowing into the Necromancer's flesh. Though clearly demonic in origin and temperament, the spell is a powerful ward against magic. Patterns that cross through the mist rot and die before their time, leaving the Necromancer unscathed. It is a minor blessing that the Necromancers' patrons are so ill-tempered, or the Necromancers themselves so clumsy with their gifts, that it affects their magic in equal measure. Yet still, the Necromancer's greatest threat is often not the magic at his fingertips but the monsters at his beck and call. Some Necromancers are known to shape the unholy miasma in a sphere around them, rather than let it settle on their flesh. Rejoice upon seeing such a grandiose display, for while the Necromancer has freed himself of some of the burden upon his own magic, so may you swiftly wade through the mist and bring justice to them from close at hand.
Effect:	Unknown
Example Messaging:	Interacting with Spell: Tiny red and purple shafts appear within the black mist surrounding <Caster> and writhe in frenzy. Your spell is weakened as it passes through the unholy miasma.
Devices/Tattoos:	No devices or tattoos documented.

Notes

Old description: Worm's Mist works by proxy -- It creates a sphere of black mist around the caster, which in turn attracts purplish worms from some vile dimension. Though these worms feed on the mist, they are harmless to flesh and bone. The worms 'react' poorly with incoming or outgoing spells from the Fire Manipulation and Psychic Projection books, dying in small gouts of purple flame but blocking such spells completely. Renewed casts of Worm's Mist attract larger numbers of worms into the cloud.
