Description
As you cast this mighty Working, you sweep your limbs in great arcs, gathering up momentum, a bit of lightning-charged iron shivering in your grasp. At the end of the casting, you may charge yourself, and allies you can touch as described above, with Kinetic Force.
You and all you touch are filled to the brim with massive, surging, kinetic energy. This power grants several effects for as long as the dweomer inhabits you.
Out of combat, your overland movement rate is improved by a number of miles per day equal to the number of levels of Caster possessed by the caster of this Vis Viva.
During a combat (and possibly a skill challenge at the discretion of the referee), your speed with all forms of movement you possess is increased by a number of feet per round equal to the number of levels of Caster possessed by the caster of this Vis Viva, rounded down to the highest multiple of five feet. In addition, all melee weapon and thrown weapon attacks you make that successfully hit have their damage increased by the number of levels of Caster possessed by the caster of this Great Working. This is bonus damage, and is inflicted as the same type of damage as the base weapon, and is added to it for purposes of overcoming damage resistance. If an attack inflicts more than one type of damage, the wielder of the weapon may choose what type to increase on each attack they make, if desired.
For example, if cast by a 20th level Wizard, this True Dweomer buffs that Wizard and as many allies as they can touch as defined above, adding 20 miles per day to their Overland Travel, and in combats, adding 20 feet to all their movement types and 20 points of damage to all of their melee or thrown weapon attacks that land. If cast by a level 33rd caster, these benefits are 33 miles per day, plus 30 feet to all moves, and plus 33 points of damage by all successful hits.This spell lays a dual charge on its target(s). If the targets are something other than you or another creature (such as an object or area), the spell instead lays a dual charge on you, the caster. Targets which already have a dual charge, a divine charge, or an arcane charge, may choose only one of these effects to keep. Dual charges are treated as both an arcane and a divine charge, and a creature may only ever have a single arcane charge and divine charge present on them at a time.
