Diether Corruption

Diether Corruption is not an official magical spell, but rather a personal skill only known to one single wielder. Diether Corruption is a very unique ability that actually uses the wielder's own condition of Dither Syndrome against a specific target, as a means of sharing some of the symptoms to the target without actually transmitting the genetic ailment. The wielder taps into their own ailment while creating a temporary bridge or connection between their magical aura and the magical aura of their target through physical contact. Once this connection is established, a surge of magical energy is sent through in the form of a simulated virus that relies on the traced design of a restricted version of Dither Syndrome.
Once this virus is transmitted, the magical circuits of the target gradually and slowly become congested and shut down over a period of time, eventually causing almost all magical circuits to become disrupted to the point in which magical energy cannot be sent out. This all takes the form of a kind of aura which keeps this effect going over a long period of time. This aura has a very dark green/beige coloration with strong web texture effects to the aura, and it cannot be removed or diffused by any means, not even with a self-inflicted Horrordime spell.
Other than this aura, every other effect of this ability is totally invisible the entire time, so it is not known to the target unless it is explained in person. When the aura takes effect, over a long period of time, the target's magical circuits become more congested or disrupted over time with effects that simulate some symptoms of Dither Syndrome without actually giving that disease to the target. Magical usage becomes harder to come out. The entire body slows down gradually, and physical movement becomes far more taxing. Additionally, once the condition progresses far enough, intrusive rejection will set in with the affected wielder, preventing them from invoking any magic and harming them more every time they attempt to do so. This aura has an unusually long duration of time that cannot be removed or altered. This skill can in theory only be invoked by a capable mage who is actually afflicted with the Dither Syndrome condition. Leray magic itself is not what enables this power, rather is this a personal ability that has not been evaluated at all.

Effect

Attack Form: Simulated Transferred Dither Syndrome Sharing
Attack Type: Non-Damaging Sabotage
Glyphring: False

Side/Secondary Effects

See effects above.

Manifestation

Most of what happens does so without any visual magic effects. The aura generated around the target is the only noticeable part of this skill, and its dark webbed texture is very unique, while the aura itself while very thin becomes fairly opaque over time. The aura also generates an odd energetic kind of noise over time, though quietly.

Discovery

*Spoilers!*
(Read Dawn of a Sage first)

Alyssa Valor came up with this unique idea during her fight with Immersa Azerbond. Alyssa has Dither Syndrome, which can slowly inflict paralysis and eventually death, but can also be pushed back all the way with the intense and careful constant usage of Leray magic and exercise of the magical circuits. Diether Corruption is her unique ability that takes advantage of this ailment, which resides partially within her own magical aura and magical circuits as a means of creating a long term simulated virus that can infect the magical circuits of another wielder by creating a temporary bridge between her magical aura and the aura of her target. Doing so does not in any way have an effect on Alyssa's own condition, but it can share that pain with her target.

Effect Duration

This aura can last between 7-17 minutes, but the effects can linger long after the aura fades, for about 55 minutes.

Effect Casting Time

5-10 seconds

Range

Physical Range Only

Applied Restriction

While using this skill has no health effect on the wielder invoking it, a fair strain is still put on their magical circuits to transfer their own magic through the bridged connection, which then requires a long duration of time to pass before the skill can be used once again. The estimated time before this can be used again is about 13 hours. Also, as this goes without saying, this ability can only be used by someone with Dither Syndrome.
