Sharn's Magestorm View
Wizardry Universal Level 9
Real Cost: 40 Active Points: 150
Provider: Killer Shrike Source: New Content
Description
This powerful ambient effect creates a zone of mystic interdimensional turmoil that causes everything within it to slightly displace a few inches back and forth constantly for up to 20 minutes. This interferes with teleportation and also makes it extremely difficult to hit point targets within the zone as they are constantly displacing. The caster can decide to turn it off or move the zone for up to a minute after casting, but if they leave it on it stays in place for 20 minutes thereafter.
Effect

Though this spell has a relatively lengthy casting time, its effect is potent; the apparent passage of time is slowed down for everyone else near the caster. NOTE: This is not a truly complete "Time Stop" effect as it only affects things that have SPD. For a closer version to the source material's effect reference the Optional Speed Zone rules in the Ultimate Speedster.
