Haku/ImperialDisregardofReality
A spell I did up in honor of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. It should be clear to those who've played the game what the spell here is.
Imperial (Element) Disregard of Reality
Terresterial Circle
Cost : 25 motes
Target : Area
The exalted are princes of Creation, with essence potent enough that they can repeal the laws of Reality, admitedly temporarily. This spell convinces the essences of everything in a specific area that the wrath of the elemental dragons are being visited upon them.
This spell requires a sample of one of the elements, or alternatively an elemental or the anima flare of a dragonblooded who possess an essence of 3 or higher. With a quick murmured prayer to the elemental dragons, the sorcerer's anima flares outwards before transforming into the appropiate element. This naturally does great damage to those caught within the range of the spell, a radius of (10 x essence of the sorcerer) yards.
However, the elemental fury is but an illusion despite what certain sorcerers would like others to think. There are no evidence of any damage after the spell is finished beyond wounded or dead targets.
Upon casting the spell, the Player rolls Intelligence + Occult (+ essence die) against the MDV of everyone (save for allies that the sorcerer can choose NOT to affect) caught within the radius of the spell. Charms that enhance MDVs may be applied, as well as effects that grant defenses to illusions would work against this spell.
Should the occult roll defeat the MDV of the targets, the targets are inflicted with (sorcerer's willpower + essence) die in lethal damage that may be soaked as normal enviromental damage. The appropiate immunity or defense to the element being used would also negate the effect of the spell.
The variants of the spell are;
- Prominence - A sea of golden red flames that burns much like the southern elemental pole.
- Tempest - The heavens become overcast before bolts of lightning rain down upon all.
- Freezeblink - A winter gale that coats all in ice as snow is blown in.
- Deluge - A mighty waterfall forms over all and deluge them with great amounts of water, enough to drown.
- Soil Evidence - The earth shakes before exploding upwards to bury all and smother them in the depths of Creation.
- Wild Tornado - A tornado forms in the area, blowing wildly. The damage is done in the form of the wind skinning its targets, flaying their skins off.
First Edition Variant Rules
For those using 1e and who want to have this spell. The Occult roll by the sorcerer is contested by the target(s) rolling their (willpower).

Haku, here, made some minor edits to the spell, mainly in the form of target selection or deselecting allies capability added in, as well as a 1e rule variant. ~ haku
