The mage calls on the cosmic powers of the universe and alters the pull of gravity in a given area. The difference in change and the area covered is dependent on the spell level. An area’s gravity can be both Heightened or Lessened and Inverted. Creatures who fly with the use of wings in an area affected by a heightened area of Level Two or higher must make a Muscle check against the spell roll or fall.
