Ray of Frost

Ray of Frost, Thorn Shot, Dusky Shot, and many others are considered basic offensive spells, designed to help young mages practice proper aim and magical control while still being able to defend themselves against the monsters and creatures of the world.
These spells serve as an introduction to using magic in an offensive or destructive manner, teaching casters how to focus, control, and manage their power with precision rather than excess. Through them, mages learn not only how to strike a target, but how to understand the behavior of their magic once it is released.
As with all destructive spells, choose your targets and your actions wisely, my young mages. Power without judgment is far more dangerous than any monster you may face.

Gestures & Ritual

You extend your index finger forward, thumb raised, while the remaining fingers curl inward.

When the spell is ready, drop your thumb and release the energy in a sudden burst, launching it toward your target.
