Effect The caster generates a field of energy around herself, which causes small mundane pebbles to join her Guardian Stones in orbit around her. This grants Light Cover as well as Rank x 2 Electromagnetic Charges. While active, the caster may spend these Charges in the following ways:
  • Spending 1 Charge allows the channeler to ready an action to trap projectile(s) that threaten her. A projectile entering the Electromagnetic Field triggers an opposed attack roll using the channeler's Casting Roll + Rank Divine bonus against the projectile's unmodified Attack Roll. If the channeler is successful, the projectile is trapped in her orbit and slingshotted back at the attacker, dealing Rank Lethal Damage and triggering any secondary effect(s) of the projectile (poison, explosion, splash attack, etc.) as though the attack were successful.
  • The Caster may alternatively spend 2 Charges to activate the field (as above) as a Reactive Action once per round.

Once all charges have been spent, the field dissipates and the caster loses cover until the spell is recast. At Rank 5, the area of the field extends to a 1 yard radius around the caster.
