Burial
Geomancy
The harrowing prospect of being entombed alive is a universal fear, encapsulating a multitude of terrors shared among sentient beings—claustrophobia, enveloping darkness, and profound isolation. It stands as a gruesome demise that strikes fear into the hearts of many. This dread is precisely why most mages exercise extreme caution in teaching the arcane art of Burial to their peers, dreading its potential malevolent applications. Typically, this spell finds its purpose in crafting ephemeral platforms or conducting solemn rituals for the interment of revered individuals. However, its ethical use hinges on the principle that the targets of this magic should have already departed from the realm of the living.

An enormous cube opens up in the ground, with the top of the cube centered on a point you can see within range. Regardless of what would ordinarily be present beneath that space, the area appears to be a cube of dark earth. Creatures who are standing in the affected space must make a Dexterity Resistance check or fall into the pit. If a creature succeeds, it moves safely to the nearest unoccupied space unaffected by the spell.
At the start of your turn, the pit contracts, and all creatures in the pit take 2d8 Strike Damage.
Any attempts to climb the pit walls are +1 Flawed, as the walls are magically unstable and without footholds. Spells (other than Rites) that would alter the pit (such as those that might change its shape or create pillars from the dirt at the bottom) fail unless they are, as the pit itself is magically created.
If a creature dies in the pit, the creature's body sinks below the earth at the bottom of the pit and is then deposited in the Umbra Domain.

A 2-Pace radius sphere opens up in a space on the ground you can see within range. All creatures who are fully within the sphere (meaning their Size cannot make them larger than the sphere) must make a Dexterity Resistance check or be dragged into the ground. Once a creature is pulled into the ground in this way, the hole closes back up, appearing as it did before the spell was cast. If a creature succeeds on the resistance check, it safely moves to the nearest unoccupied space outside of the sphere.
When a creature affected by this spell begins its turn, it takes 10 Strike Damage and 10 Will Damage. Creatures that need to breathe begin to suffocate. A creature may attempt to break free of the burial by using a Primary Action to make a Power check against your Arcane Trial on its turn, freeing itself upon success.
Creatures buried by this spell are Blinded, Mute, Inhibited, Grappled, Deafened, and Vulnerable.

Dispel
Spatiomancy
A devastatingly disheartening spell to find yourself faced with, but an important one for the magical community, Dispel has the capacity to inhibit magical items, cancel the spells of others, and even strip spellcasters of their magical abilities. The Rite of Instilled Mundanity has long been a last-resort punishment administered to spellcasters deemed too ill-principled to bear the responsibility of magical power.

You must choose an amount of MP to expend (which includes the 1 MP expended to initiate this spell's casting). If the MP you expend is greater than the amount of MP that the target creature expended casting the spell, the initial spell fails. Any expended resources from both sides are still expended regardless of this spell's outcome.
This cannot be used to counter rites.

After every 10 minutes, the creature may make an Acuity, Cognition, or Wile Resistance check against your Arcane Trial (target's choice which stat is used). On a success, the tiger's eye crystal is destroyed, and the rite fails. If the rite is successful, the target creature's maximum and current MP are reduced to 1 and the creature can no longer benefit from any increases to its MP.
This effect lasts until the creature either comes back into contact with the tiger's eye crystal, the tiger's eye crystal is destroyed, or the magic of the tiger's eye crystal is dispelled by powerful magic.

You place your hand on the ground and choose a space you can see within range that's in direct contact with the same ground you touched. A massive hand rises from the ground in that space, filling a 2-Pace Cube. The hand is made of the same material as the ground from which it rose.
When the spell is first cast, any creatures within the space where the hand rose must succeed on a Might Resistance check or become Grappled and Inhibited by the hand. A creature Grappled in this way may use a Primary Action on its turn to make a Power skill check against your Arcane Trial, ending the Grappled and Inhibited states upon a success.
As a Secondary Action, you may have the hand attempt to grab one creature within 1 Pace of it, or you may have the hand deal 2d8 Strike Damage to creatures currently Grappled by it. If you chose to have the hand grab a creature, that creature must succeed on a Might Resistance check to avoid being Grappled and Inhibited by the hand.
