Using Magic

Now that you have trained elemental magic you certainly want to use it - but how?

Elemental magic uses the same "inventory" as all other items. Even worse - it shares the same inventory with the other items. What do I mean by that?

Your inventory has a capacity of twenty items. Let's say you RPed with a friendly Paesani and he wanted to do you something good and gave you a bread. This bread blocks one of the twenty inventory slots. Ouch. Less space for elemental magic items.

So remember - bread, fish, and meat is bad for vampires. ;)

You can simply delete unwanted items by typing /delete Itemname (e.g. /delete Bread).

Now, how do you cast a spell on someone?
Simple. Define which item to use and on whom.

/use MagicItemName Firstname Lastname
(e.g. /use Healing Skarlet Winterwolf)

If you do not specify a name, the spell will affect the avatar closest to you.

It is enough if you type the first name or just a part of the first name, as long as this identifies the target correctly (as long as there are not two people with the same first name near you).

Skarlet, Mariyah and myself have tested some spells on what their effects are. Below find a short summary of the spell effects.

Target = whom to target - yourself or another player
Max. distance = how close you have to be to your target
Effect = what will happen
Duration = how long the spell will last


Healing
Target: other player
Max. distance: 10 meters
Effect: target will be healed for 50 phys points
Duration: n/a

Healing

Protectus
Target: self (/use Shield - no name needed)
Max. distance: n/a
Effect: all physical damage you will receive will be halved
Duration: roughly one minute

Protectus

Fireball
Target: other player
Max. distance: 20 meters
Effect: three fireballs will be cast at the target for a random damage of 5 to 10 points each.
Duration: fireballs persist for roughly 60 seconds

Fireball

As soon as we can test other spells this post will be updated.
