Spell Effects & Mechanics
- When invoked, an Absorption spell negates the effect of a spell. Also, the actual, modified Power Points used to cast the negated spell are given to the character. This spell will not give a character any Power Points if they do not have the Power Point skill, nor will it give a character more Power Points than their normal Power Point maximum.
- If a character uses an Absorption to stop an area of effect spell that does not strike them directly, the effect is stopped but the character gains no Power Points. For example, a character wishes to safely cross a Wall of Flame spell. They can call their Absorption to protect themselves from the damage, but gain no Power Points.
- An Absorption will stop magical spell like effects including those from Nature Magic and Spell Songs, but in these cases, the effect is stopped but the character gains no Power Points from the spell even if the character is a Druid or Spell Singer.
