Spell Level:
Spell level determines the power, duration, mana cost, and failure rate of each spell. For spells within a school, spell level is equal to spell mastery/4 + school/2 + element/2. A mage casting a death spell in the enchantment school with 8 points in spell mastery, 13 in death, and 7 in enchantment would cast the spell at spell level 12. For non-school spells, the spell level is equal to spell mastery/4 + element. Element specific spells are designed to not only provide distinction between focuses, but also provide non-specialists to have access to casting through one primary skill.
All spells will scale with spell level. Even the lowly level 1 spells will scale to match higher level spells. However, due to application and effect the hardest spells to learn will offer the greatest advantages in play.
Learning Spells:
Elemental mages will begin the game with their two first level spells. Spells can only be learned by reading a spell book and meeting the base proficiency for the spell.
Failure Rate:
Each spell has a base failure rate of 50%. For each spell level over the base spell level, that amount is reduced by 30%. You intelligence bonus is then subtracted from that amount. Finally your armor penalty to casting is added. A caster, casting a spell with base level 3 at level 5 proficiency with an intelligence bonus of 8 and no armor penalty would have a failure rate of 16%.
Schools:
Evocation: Evocation is a school focused on releasing pure elemental energy. Evocation is a single minded school of damage oriented spells. Evocation spells provide the most efficient and devastating offensive spells.
Conjuration: Conjuration focuses on manifestations of elemental energies. Conjuration offers a grab bag of utility, summons, debuffs, and damage spells.
Enchantment: Enchantment harness elemental energies to offensively alter a caster's foes. Enchantment spells devastate foes through damage over time effects and negative effects.
Transmutation: Transmutation harnesses the elemental forces in Forge of the Elements to alter reality. Transmutation are mainly used for enhancement, though transmutation can be used for offensive purposes as well.
Spell Targeting:
Spells can be focused in a variety of ways, resulting in differing areas of effect.
Bolts: A blast of energy is released from the caster, a bolt however can be blocked or dodged.
Ball: A ball of energy is lobbed at a foe, on contact the ball explodes effecting all enemies within it's radius.
Ray: A ray releases a wide beam towards the target, effecting all in it's path.
Personal based area effect (pbae): The caster releases a blast of energy originating from the caster.
Target: A spell directly targets a single foe, bypassing defenses.
