Abilities in Pervasion
| Ability | Description |
| Coalesce | Upon the Elemental Plane of Water. |
You may cross great distances, traversing the very planes themselves to materialise upon the Elemental Plane of Water. Such an act takes great focus, requiring that you do nothing for several seconds while focussing on the process. | |
| Cohesion | A basic manipulation of the self. |
Alter the cohesion of your form, making yourself more resistant to attacks that your foes would dare make against your personage. | |
| Blade | A basic manipulation of water. |
Conjure forth a blade of ice to slash at your foe. If they are protected by a magical shield, the shield will be destroyed; if they are not, they will take damage. | |
| Saturation | From water to water. |
Summon forth the waters to flood your location. | |
| Bloodshift | Consistency and composition are so very malleable. |
Alter the composition of a target's very blood(1), transforming it into a deadly venom of your choice(2). 1. You may not alter the composition of a fellow Elemental Lord of Water. 2. Some venoms are not derivable through this method: notably, if it cannot be envenomed upon a blade, it is beyond your reach. | |
| Quench | Flames are such a trivial inconvenience. |
Extinguish a firewall that would bar your path. | |
| Purify | Replace the old with the new. |
Cleanse your form of impurities, curing an affliction. If you stand within water when enacting this ability, a second affliction will be cured after some time. You must be standing in water at the time when the second affliction would be cured as well as upon initiation. | |
| Perspire | They are right to fear your contempt. |
Force your foe to begin sweating (slickness). | |
| Roil | Such simple creatures are the unblessed. |
Violently roil the fluid within the stomach of your enemy, making them nauseous. If they are already nauseous, continued use of this ability shall cause them to become clumsy due to their infirmity. | |
| Lifestream | To drive out imperfections. |
Call forth a cleansing stream of water to restore yourself or another (heals some health). | |
| Thin | Their blood shall turn the waters red. |
Thin your enemy's blood, making it flow more freely(1). If their blood is already thinned, blood shall begin to flow from their pores instead(2). 1. Gives haemophilia. 2. Gives 200 bleeding. | |
| Drench | Soak them to the bone. |
Drench your foe with water, soaking him with icy water that will leech away his will to act(*).
| |
| Choke | Fill their lungs with water. |
Fill the lungs of your target with water, causing them to be unable to breathe(*).
| |
| Downpour | A deluge to make them kneel. |
Summon forth a deluge of water to batter your foe. If they have the audacity to face you on their feet this downpour shall drive them to the ground. If they are already in their rightful place at your feet the deluge shall freeze them with its chill and deal damage based on how frozen they are afterwards. | |
| Tidalwave | Upon raging waters shall you come. |
Summon forth a tidal wave, carrying you away in a direction for several rooms. This will carry you over walls, but not through closed doors. Any firewall in the path of your wave shall be immediately snuffed at your passing. | |
| Whirlpool | To resist is futile. |
Summon forth a whirlpool, dragging in all those in adjacent rooms that are also submerged by water. You can only initiate this ability in a flooded room. | |
| Flux | Your control was never in question. |
For one such as you multitasking when it comes to your element is trivial. You may now strike your foe with up to two abilities at a time(*). In addition, the first ability used in this way is more powerful, and may have secondary effects(**).
| |
| Parch | Let them thirst for the denied. |
Pull water from your foe's skin, leaving them parched and lethargic(*).
| |
| Submerge | Water shall reclaim its due. |
When in a flooded location, you may send your power outwards, flooding all adjacent rooms as well. | |
| Rise | A battlefield fit for you. |
If a location is flooded, you may cause the water level to rapidly rise, making it far easier for you to enact a final end for your foes(*).
| |
| Wreck | They shall break upon the rocks. |
Summon forth a vortex of water to dash a foe against the ground. They must be prone or paralysed for this to be possible, otherwise they shall evade the water's clutches. A target that is struck with this ability shall receive stupidity and recklessness. If they have either affliction prior to this, they shall also take damage(*).

A target that is struck with this ability shall receive stupidity and recklessness. If they have either affliction prior to this, they shall also take damage(*).
| |
| Coldfate | Breath is fleeting |
Curse your foe with a cold fate, denying them the gift of breathing while underwater. Not even the natural ability of a grook or the power of your fellow Lords shall allow them to avoid this punishment. This fate will last a time before fading naturally. | |
| Torrent | A bone-crushing stream. |
Send a concentrated torrent of water at a supine target(*), freezing them to the bone. If your target is also too weak to defend against the attack(**), this attack will also break both of their arms.
| |
| Bloodbend | They shall dance on crimson strings. |
Reach out to the vital fluids that flow through anyone that stands within your immediate area, commanding them to act(*). In order to carry this out, they must be bleeding sufficiently for you to take advantage of their vulnerability(**).
| |
| Resurgence | Your power is absolute. |
Destroy the profane bonds that would seek to part your waters, resubmerging your current and any adjacent rooms that labour under this outrage. | |
| Drown | Consign them to the deep. |
Providing you are underwater or in a location with a raised water level(*) with your target and they lack the ability to breathe under said water, you may begin the process of drowning them. This takes all of your concentration and will fail if they become able to breathe water during the focusing period. Additionally, the process will be faster if the target is asthmatic or nauseous(**) at the time of beginning the drown attempt.
| |
| Tsunami | A wave to dwarf all others. |
Summon forth a titanic tsunami in a direction. The wave shall manifest and sweep all in its path back towards you. | |
| Latch | Exert your will upon their inferior form. |
Exert your will upon the vital fluids that course through the inferior form of your foe. Based on your preparation, this act has various effects. For each of: addiction, haemophilia, nausea, lethargy, and severe bleeding(*) up to a total of four, the effects are as follows: 2: You shall bind your foe with watery tentacles, hindering their chances to flee from you. 3: If your foe's blood is running from open wounds, double the amount of bleeding they are currently suffering from(**). If they are not bleeding, gives a moderate amount of bleeding. 4: When this is successful it will knock your target off of elixir balance; it will fade next time they successfully sip a health elixir. While in this state they will be ready for your ultimate contempt(***).
| |
| Desiccate | Wash the land with their vital fluids |
Once you have latched your foe(*), you may tear every drop of water from their body in a display of the might of Sllshya, a warning to all who would dare oppose you.
| |
| Hydra | The beast of Sllshya |
For when the situation is truly dire, you may be granted one of the beasts of Sllshya temporarily. These formidable beasts of legend are entirely uncontrollable even for one such as you, only giving their loyalty to he who rules over water. Once summoned, the hydra shall rampage, performing various room wide attacks periodically and wandering between bodies of water. Be warned, though the hydra will acknowledge you are also one of Sllshya's chosen and will not target you, your allies will be granted no such consideration(*). Finally, take note: the act of manifesting the hydra is terribly taxing, and you will be left on the brink of death upon calling one forth. You will also only be able to summon a hydra once every 30 minutes(**), and the hydra shall naturally depart from the prime plane after a time.
