| Example Messaging: | Cast:
Several motes of light gather, briefly forming a minute version of the constellation of <constellation> before collapsing into a <adjective> <color> sphere.
The air takes on a sudden chill as a <adjective> <color> sphere flares and rushes at a <target>! A <target> stops suddenly, frozen in place by the flash of icy light, but only for a moment -- a flurry of activity follows as bones, flesh, and blood all snap, crackle, and rearrange themselves under the stress of the frigid starlight. | |

Notes
General
- Does cold damage.
- Constellation-based colors.
- The descriptive adjective varies from caster to caster and is not able to be changed.
- Possible adjectives: flaring, glowing, pulsating, shimmering, shining, sparkling, translucent.
- Incredibly difficult spell to put mana into (on par with PD)
- Can be augmented if cast while holding a Glowing iron fragment in your hands.
Limitations
- Can only be cast at night.
- If your sphere touches water, it will explode and injure you, even if you aren't in the same room.
Movement Messages
- A <adjective> <color> sphere drifts in with a hiss, following you.
- A <adjective> <color> sphere crackles with luminescence, its previous target unavailable.
- A <adjective> <color> buoys above your head like a guardian star, appearing nigh-erased by the sunlight.
