Description

You mix up an extract empowered by Elemental Air. You empower it with a spark, and anoint yourself or a creature you can touch. They take on Air Aspect, and can now treat Air as Earth, among other things.

The subject anointed by this delightful elixir can tread on air as if walking on solid ground. This is treated as Greater Flight equal to your Walk speed, with the caveat that moving upward or downward is similar to walking up a hill. The maximum upward or downward angle possible is 45 degrees, at a rate equal to half the air walker's normal speed.

Should the extract duration expire while the subject is still aloft, the magic fails slowly. The subject floats downward as if taking a Run action. If it reaches the ground in that amount of movement, it lands safely. If not, it falls the rest of the distance, taking falling damage as normal for its environment. Since dispelling an extract effectively ends it as if dismissed by the caster, the subject also descends in this way if the Air Walk extract is dispelled, but not if it is negated by an Antimagic Field.

You can anoint yourself or another subject with an Air Walk elixir and then you or they can ride a Mount. If they are dismounted while airborne, then both them and their mount descend as above.

A strong wind can push the subject along or hold it back. At the end of a creature's turn each round, the wind blows the air walker 5 feet for each 5 miles per hour of wind speed. The creature may be subject to additional penalties in exceptionally strong or turbulent winds, such as loss of control over movement or physical damage from being buffeted about. Trying to use this spell in winds higher than Strong is very hazardous, with the GM left to adjudicate the details.

This extract can be used to disperse Obscuring spells. Gases, fogs, and vapors that intersect the squares occupied by the user of this elixir are dispersed in those squares.

Obscuring spells include: Obscuring (Acid Fog (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell),  Aggressive Thundercloud, Greater (Druid Spell),  Aggressive Thundercloud, Greater (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell),  Aggressive Thundercloud (Druid Spell),  Aggressive Thundercloud (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell),  Barrow Haze (Cleric Spell),  Barrow Haze (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell),  Cloudkill (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell),  Euphoric Cloud (Druid Spell),  Euphoric Cloud (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell),  Fog Cloud (Alchemist Extract),  Fog Cloud (Druid Spell),  Fog Cloud (Ranger Poultice),  Fog Cloud (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell),  Incendiary Cloud (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell),  Mind Fog (Bard Spell),  Mind Fog (Paladin Spell),  Mind Fog (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell),  Nauseating Trail (Alchemist Extract),  Nauseating Trail (Druid Spell),  Nauseating Trail (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell),  Plague Storm (Cleric Spell),  Plague Storm (Druid Spell),  Plague Storm (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell),  Solid Fog (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell),  Stinking Cloud (Alchemist Extract),  Stinking Cloud (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell),  Twilight Haze (Paladin Spell),  Twilight Haze (Sorcerer/Wizard Spell)), and any other effects the GM rules as being affected.

This spell lays an arcane charge on its target(s). If the targets are something other than you or another creature (such as an object or area), the spell lays an arcane charge on you, the caster. Targets which already have an arcane charge present must choose which to keep if the new spell has the same charge type. Only one arcane charge can ever be present on a target at a time.
