| Compresses an envelope of space around the caster and an adjacent enemy, then allows it to decompress abruptly, propelling both of them forward until the former collides with something, inflicting damage proportional to the distance travelled. The recoil will leave the caster unable to move for a brief while, and recasting the spell is impossible until you regain your mobility.
Originally designed for use in construction, it will automatically target the nearest mass with the longest clear path towards a wall or other solid object (such as another monster). |
Maxwell's Portable Piledriver is a level 4 Translocations spell that grabs an enemy in melee range, and propels both it and the caster in that direction until hitting another monster or a wall (or reaching max range). It does damage via collision only, but that damage is increased based on how far you've travelled.
The spell's -Move cooldown is proportional to the distance travelled, and it lasts for <path length> turns.
