Green Magic
Level 1 Green Magic
Magic Circle Against Wind
Description - Earth Magic, as opposed to Wind Magic, is solid, slow, and sturdy. Wind is quick, gaseous and can come from any side. To be better prepared against this fast power, Plague Bearers have developed a magical barrier whichs protects them from the Wind Magic of their opponents.
Effect - Provides + 4 magic power against blue magic in a 4 square area for d6 + level turns.
Range - Self
Enchantment -

Armor, Reduces Yellow Magic Damage by 15%
Accessory, +2 Mag vs. Yellow Magic
Cost - 5 MP
Harden
Description - Plague Bearers have, through many generations of study, come to understand the earth more and more. They learned to use this knowledge, and one of the many applications was toughening their skins to resemble the hardness of a rock, which provided them great protection in dangerous situations of many forms.
Effect - Raises defense by 25% for d4 + intelligence turns
Range - Self
Enchantment -
Weapon, +1 Def, -1 Mag
Armor, +1 Def, -1 Spd
Accessory, +1 Def, - 1 Str

Resist - STR
Range - MAG

Armor, +1 Def, -1 Dex
Accessory, Casts Entangle once a day.
Magic Power - 3
Cost - 4 MP
Poison
Description - The earth and the bodies of most creatures contain effective poisons, even to the creatures themselves. It is a fairly simple matter for a knowledgeable plague bearer to mix these mostly harmless substances and force them into a part of the target's body where they will cause great harm, quickly. Most will agree this very effective spell is the definitive plague bearer spell, and gave the casters their name.
Effect - Poisons an enemy, dealing 1 damage every turn for d6 turns.
Resist - CON

Weapon, 10% chance of poisoning an enemy upon strike.

Range - Self
Enchantment -
Weapon, +3 to Spot
Armor, +3 to Listen
Accessory, +3 to survival.
Cost - 1 MP
Calm Animals
Description - Similarly to causing sleep, a plague bearer can cause calmness. It is far harder to affect sophisticated minds with such a spell, especially since the need for the spell means the target especially doesn't want to calm down. The calming spell is very good for placating animals, however.
Effect - Calms an attacking animal, the animal will stop attacking the character unless it or one of its allies is attacked.
Resist - CHA
Range - MAG
Enchantment -

Armor, +1 Def

Mudslide
Description - If your enemy can't touch you, you're doing something right. After a casting of Mudslide, it'll also be far easier for you to touch the enemy instead, either with a spell or sword.
