The mage saps the valor right out of a creature, sending the poor thing running home to mommy. The mage appears to the target as something that should incite primal, mortal fear. Each level of Intensity allows the mage to frighten off a creature of increasingly larger size.

When learning this spell, the mage must choose the specific element that is used when cast. A mage can learn this spell in different elemental schools, but must buy Spell skill ranks in each. In the ice school, it's called This is a ice spell Cold Sweat. In the ruin school, it's called This is a ruin spell Erode Spirit. To dark mages, it's This is a dark spell Horrify.

Intensity Effects

  1. Size −2 and below (scaredy cat!)
  2. Size 0 and below (most humanoids)
  3. Size 3 and below (…and the horse they rode in on)
  4. Size 6 and below (killer wail)
  5. Any size creature ()
