Spells & Sundry

[fleurdesel]

CREATION Until she began specializing and studying Spirit healing intently beyond the theory, this was Adelaide's bread and butter. The closest school to what her dreams urged her to do served her well until she was able to move forward with her tutelage in Spirit Healing. As such some of these spells are rusty as she favors her specialized skills, but a glyph is a glyph and it's hard to mess up basic healing. As it draws on her own power rather than that of a Spirit, she tires more easily when using this school SPIRIT The first steps in better understanding the spirits in her dreams and the entirety of working with spirits in general, Adele focused intently on the building blocks of what she'd need to move forward and...more or less set them aside as soon as a better means of doing the same thing became available to her. While vital for her studies it's not something she's had much use for until she's left the Spire. PRIMAL The first set of spells she ever learned and the most familiar, ice magic is almost a nervous, soothing habit for Adelaide now. For her meditations and focus drills she most often creates shapes in ice and remolds it over and over in increasing levels of complexity. It's what she calls upon when a barrier is needed above even a spirit or arcane shield, she finds it more comfortable by far. SPIRIT HEALER Her strongest area of focus, Adelaide channels the power of a Spirit of Compassion to mend wounds, cure the sick, and in extreme situations draw someone back from the brink of death provided she pours all of her focus and energy into it, and neither she nor the Spirit is otherwise tapped out. The lattermost hasn't come up in her experience as of yet, better to keep people from bleeding out in the first place. HERBS & POTIONS Wide and varied is er bag of tricks; including but not limited to: healing poultices and potions, lyrium potions, balms, salves, tonics, and even a jar of bees. It was a dare. She doesn't do it often, the stinging is bothersome. Please use prescribed potions and salves as directed, she is not liable for any injuries, illnesses, or side effects that come from their misuse. Do not drink the poultices as they are for topical applications only. Do not double dose on tonics, yes they have alcohol, no drinking more doesn't give you double the effects. SURGEON Adelaide has taught herself enough to look as though she knows what she's doing while actually doing the bulk of the mending with subtle nudges of magic. Technical skills such as suturing a wound or winding a bandage she can manage. Anything more complicated she'll set aside for working with magic or passing over to a proper surgeon if she can't handle it. COMPASSION The spirit Adelaide works with in her healing and that has been at her side for most of her life. So long as she follows their rules she is able to use their power in her magic. 1) She is not to do harm against people with her magic. Demons, the Undead, Darkspawn, these she can defend herself against. But people? No. Abominations fall into a grey area that she does not wish to risk testing. 2) If it is to no detriment to her health and there is someone that needs healing, she is to mend them. 3) Relief from pain includes needing comfort, if Compassion nudges her to do something for someone, it must be done. As a spirit tending to pain Compassion is aware mostly of physical discomfort, pain, illness, and urges Adelaide to help those they sense. Extreme emotional distress on occasion can catch their interest, but for the most part it is focused on physical pain or illness.
