So, with the new Social Spells system, i thought about a spell that would give magicians a feel for the elements they don't have access to normally. The spell is called Prestidigitation, as seen below.
Name: Prestidigitation
Tier: D
Cost: N/A
Element: Heat/Water/Light/Lightning/Wind/Sound/Strength/Life
Class: Social
Range: See Effect
Duration: Concentration
Cool-Down: N/A
Description: This is often used as a training spell for new mages, but has the added benefit of being a swiss-army knife of sorts. Depending on the element chosen upon casting, one of the following effects takes place.
Heat: you can create a flame that is at its largest 5 cm in width and length, that produces a low heat, or at its smallest a 1 cm width 3 cm length, that produces a very high heat in a single direction.
Water: you can create or control up to 1 liter of water.
Light: you can tap an object of up to 6 cm diameter and cause it to glow like a lantern. This is normally a white light, but a color can be selected.
Lightning: you can produce a jolt of electricity that gives what it strikes magnetic properties. the jolt originates for you, or your staff. The object become moderately magnetic, strong enough to hold it fast to a piece of metal.
Wind: you can produce a light gust of wind strong enough to blow out candles. Alternatively, you can concentrate this gust to simply cut 1 cm thick rope or thinner materials, up to 3 meters away from you. Denser materials cannot be cut this way.
Sound: you can produce a sound that can be as soft as a whisper, or as loud as a scream. The sound can sound like anything, but cannot replicate speech patterns. This sound can originate anywhere within 10 meters of you.
Strength: you gain a light telekinesis capable of lifting a 5 lb./2.25 kg object up to 10 meters from you.
Life: you can create up to a 6 cm sphere of solid matter. It can be as simple as a stone, or as complex as a small amount of bread.
Everyone who wanted to learn it would be given access to this spell, as it does only the most basic things that each element of magic should be able to do.
What i want to know from the community, is should we allow D rank Social spells to fall under the category of "everyone with a staff can do this" or be kept to the realm of "only if you have the element". We could have Prestidigitation be the only exception, or have it kept to what D ranks should be able to do. Please vote on your preference.
