Description

You distill energy from the karmic field of the universe, and instill that into an extract with your spark. The elixir glows, the color corresponding to the energy you chose, the taste light and piquant.

This extract forms an aura of energy around you, protecting you and damaging all those that come near you. Choose a common energy type. Creatures adjacent to you when this extract is imbibed and at the start of each of your turns take (Circle 1 damage): 1d6 points of damage per character level (max 4d6 at character level 4) points of energy damage of the selected type.

Creatures adjacent to you are allowed a saving throw as defined above for half damage. You may only have one Elemental Aura in effect at one time.

This aura has an additional effect, granting you temporary hit points equal to your caster level against all forms of damage that are NOT the energy type you chose. Against that type of damage, you instead take 1 and a half times normal damage.

Special: If you Manaburn this extract, in addition to the normal increase in Circle, the temporary hit points you gain increase by 5 per additional extract you Burn.

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.
