Phase

Phase is a para classical element that represents phase shifting or spiritual reality, a space comprised of ectoplasm made up of dark matter and carries dark energy, it is what spirits are made of and use. Phase can be fused from the base elements Earth and Air as it embodies the solid form of Earth and the flowing non-solid of Air.

Manifestation

Essence

Phase is a tricky element to understand but can be quickly summarised by using Ghosts or Souls as representations of the element. An advanced Phase mage can displace themselves from the physical world, cutting away their physical restrictions to move freely through solid objects, float, etc. Phase magic can directly interact with spirits due it being the element that ectoplasm is made of which is what spirits are mostly made up of. Spirit interaction make Phase deadly in combat as it can be used to directly sever a spirit's connection to its body, but it can also be good for healing as it can empower a spirit allowing it to in turn boost its body's natural healing. Phase magic can also be used to create portals through a method of displacement where on contact a physical object or creature can be instantly displaced to another location, these portals are quite different to the usual reality bending portals made from other elements.

Enchanting

Phase enchanted armor can serve several purposes, commonly it is used for regenerative properties as well as for partially displacing armor making it lighter, however it can also be used to grant the user ghost like properties where they can float and even fully pass through other objects using the armor including physical attacks, however this can leave the wearer very vulnerable to energy attacks.
