Glowpulse Spell in SanZera | World Anvil

Glowpulse

A Glowpulse is a discharge of Celestial Aura from a Luminous organism's focus point into another object that it has direct physical contact with.

Effect

Glowpulses move Aura from a Luminous creature to something they are directly touching with a focus point. The speed and intensity of the pulse can be controlled by the caster.

The exact effect of the pulse depends on its Luminosity and the Luminosity (if any) of the target. Low intensity, gentle pulses of solar or lunar Aura can warm or cool another person. Steady, moderate intensity pulses can recharge the Aura stores of a Luminous item of the same Luminosity. Quick, high-intensity pulses can swiftly negate the Aura of something with an opposing Luminosity.

Manifestation

Glowpulses are often invisible. Usually the only indication of a Glowpulse is the caster's body's response to using Glow, and any resulting effects on the target. The physical experience of a Glowpulse can be pleasant or uncomfortable depending on the intensity and the Luminosity of the caster and target.

Source

Glowpulses require a celestial nexus with output nodes. A specific focus point isn't necessary for a basic pulse, but precise control of the pulse will require one. The caster is in complete control of how much Glow they use in a pulse.

Ooo, some glowflora can use this one. That's super fun. And probably means it's a good idea to not go around touching them all willy-nilly.

Oh for sure! Though Glowless plants can punish you for touching them just as well ;P
