HYDRO
|
Filling the seas, snaking through hill and dale, and hidden through the vast skies, water is the most prevalent force on the planet. Those who can shape it are masters of creation, able to call upon the power of water, whatever shape it may take. Surging jets and crushing waves, creeping fog and freezing rain, spears of ice and driving snow are but a few weapons in the hand of one who wields the power of Hydro.
Whatever other sorceries lie at your disposal, Hydro will remain among your most versatile assets. With the power to freeze the battlefield, heal the injured, and sweep over tides of enemies, a master of Hydro, like the waters they wield, can adapt to fit the needs of any situation. Most Hydro abilities offer a variety of uses, allowing you to fill multiple roles in the group. Many Hydro Arcanum make use of the Soaked status, a condition noting that the affected creature has been covered in water and is now dripping wet. This condition has little effect on the creature (other than perhaps making them quite uncomfortable), but a great many Hydro abilities key off the condition, gaining new or more powerful effects against Soaked creatures. The water wielder must be wary, however; the Soaked status is easily spread to allies as the rains fall on good and evil alike. |

Status: Soaked
The Hydro Arcanum offers a new status effect: Soaked. Soaked means that a creature is dripping wet, soaked to the bone from being immersed in water. This has no effect except to allow other powers to key off damaging or freezing Soaked creatures. There may be other effects Soaked causes on specific creatures, which will be explained in that creature's stat block.
Once the Soaked status has been taken advantage of, it ends.

Hydrokinesis
|
You can alter the shape, movement, and temperature of any volume of water within 10 meters of you and you may extract all the water from a non-magical object or substance as a Half Action.
As an Action, you can mold available water into a shape of your choosing and freeze it into solid ice, creating an object or structure consisting of up to (Hydro x 5) contiguous 1 x 1 meter spaces. The water/ice can take any shape you desire, so long as it is a single block of ice with no moving parts. Your ice structures are as hard as steel, but vulnerable to heat and slowly melt over the course of 6 hours at normal outdoor temperatures. Pick a Hydro Art to reflect the ways you've learned to shape and control water. |
