Foresight

A swift reactionary spell-form, one that speaks to the spiritual connection of Meanma, seeming to have been warned of coming danger before it occurs. A most useful spell-form to be sure.

Effect

Basic Effects: Being constantly in touch with Meanma, as most Magisters are with their own elemental force, has an advantage the others simply do not recieve. Being watched over by spirits of those before and after you. Sometimes this can manifest itself in a most beneficial way, as you react almost subconsciously, hearing a whispered warning a mere moment before being struck by danger. You may move up to 10 feet in any direction, trying to escape the danger. If reacting to a melee attack or single target ranged attack, this clearly means you avoid it, the attack misses you. But this can also be used to escape area of effects, such as explosives or spells with an AOE, though of course you know not where the spell or explosion is to be centered.

GM NOTE: For this spell-form to work best it there needs to be trust between GM and Player. So one of the best ways is to simply inform other players at the table/on the play space where the epicenter of the AOE is, by whatever means is most expedient, so that they can keep you honest, and yet the player utilizing this reaction only knows that they are currently in the area of effect, and do not know which way they should move for sure to get out of it. This is the intented way the spell is supposed to function. It is not clear information, more a general sense of Danger you need to move!

Side/Secondary Effects

Tier II Effects: You may now move up to 20 feet

Tier III Effects: You may now move up to 30 feet.

Manifestation

Jacob heard, well heard is not quite the right word for it. But something told him, something in his mind, nothing audible to others around him, to move, to get away from where he was but a split second before the iron delivery cart, which had snapped loose of its horses, the actual wagon coming apart for some reason, slammed into the wall of the building where he had been standing. The youth knew not how he had reacted so fast, he honestly did not believe it. The memory made the magister, now in his forties, grin every time he called upon the rather simple defensive spell form now, as he moved swiftly out of the way before the Bonereaver's battle axe cleaved into him, the terror simply not making contact for with steps as swift as the light of souls, Jacob was no longer there.
