Attributes

Arcane Security. Spellbook is enchanted with the following spells: alarm, arcane lock, illusory script and magic mouth. The alarm only triggers if someone that you do not allow touches or reads your spellbook. The arcane lock is not suppressed with the use of the knock spell. The illusory script makes it to where if someone were to read your spellbook it would just be utter nonsense. The magic mouth states a message, within the limits of the spell, of your choice when the book is opened. Arcane Mastery. All spell attacks get a +1 bonus to hit. Lost Knowledge.

When the storm appears, each creature within its area takes 8d4 force damage. A creature takes 1d4 force damage for each 5 feet they move through the storm, and if a creature ends their turn within the aether storm, they take 8d4 force damage.
