Alter Speed

With this spell, you alter the speed of one individual, either yourself or someone you touch.

Effect

Expending 10 mana points: You can either increase or decrease speed of one creature you touch. Will Save makes this harmless for those unwilling to be slowed. Increase: A creature who has had their speed increased gains a +4 dodge bonus to AC and +2 Reflex Saves. Any condition that makes them lose their Dexterity bonus to Armor Class (if any) also makes them lose dodge bonuses. All of the hasted creature's modes of movement (including land movement, burrow, climb, fly, and swim) are increase by 30 feet, to a maximum of twice the subject's normal speed using that form of movement. This increase counts as an enhancement bonus, and it affects the creature's jumping distance as normal for increased speed. Multiple uses do not stack. This does counter the decrease speed version of the spell. Decrease: A creature who has had their speed decreased will take -2 penalty to AC and Reflex Saves and its speed is halved and also can not uses any kind of reactions but on its turn, it will use an action or bonus action only one of them not both of them. By having no relation to the creature’s abilities or any magic items and it is incapable to make more than one melee or any ranged attack during its turn. A creature who does not wish to keep a decreased speed can attempt a Will save at the end of each of their turns until they succeed, or until the spell duration ends, or until someone dispells the magic. This does counter the increase speed version of the spell. If the target attempts to cast a spell with a 1 action, roll a d20. On an 11 or higher, the spell doesn’t take effect until the next turn and the target must use their action to complete the spell the following turn. If they can’t complete the spell, it fails and the mana is spent.
Expending 15 mana points: You can now affect one creature up to 30 feet + 10ft/ mana rank from you with a ranged touch attack with one of the effects described above.
Expending 22 mana points: You can now alter the speed of many individuals within an area around you. You can target up to a number of HD of creatures equal to 3 times your mana rank within a 30ft radius of yourself. All creatures targeted must be affected the same way, either increased or decreased speed. You choose who is affected and not all individuals in the area need be affected.
