## Spells

### Novice

* **Adenydd \*Canon\***- An Air based spell that allows the caster to lighten themself slightly and create a simple glide path when falling. In simpler terms for every 2 meters they fall, they can travel 2 meters in a direction. If the caster makes it to the ground within the duration of the spell no harmful momentum occurs and they take no damage from falling.

* **Dust Coating**- An Air based spell that whips up dust from the local area into a 10-meter cubed cloud which can reveal invisible creatures for a short period.
	+ Spoken Component: "TBA."
* **Float**- An Air based spell that magically creates a cushion of space between the caster and the floor, solid ground, or a surface of a calm liquid. This cushion gently lifts up the caster to a maximum height of 6 inches and effectively makes them float. While floating, the caster can use thought to propel themself horizontally through space as if they were walking, however, their speed becomes 20 feet and they cannot jump. The gentle lift created by this cushion can easily be negated by simple downward forces such as another creature pushing or pulling down, a strong downward draft, or the gravity of falling from a height greater than 1 foot. The effect is also negated if the caster is over-encumbered or carrying another creature that is of size small or greater. When the spell ends, the caster floats gently to the ground.
