Countdown

Add a countdown duration to your spell. Each application adds a round of countdown towards a specific status effect or other effect happening. Each round the target's countdown decreases by 1, and when it reaches 0, the applied effect happens. When creating a spell that you want to add Countdown to, you are required to apply this component at least three times. The SA cost increase, 8, will increase those three times to be 24 SA. Any further application of this component will not increase the SA cost though, so if you apply this component 6 times, the SA increase will still only be 24 SA.

If you are adding this component to an already mastered spell as a countdown duration, you are only required to apply this component twice. The SA increase is the same as with creating a new spell, it only increases up to three times.

If you have mastered a spell that already has countdown (an existing spell or one you created), you can use this component once to remove 1 round of countdown. In this case the SA cost of the spell will not increase.

Changing an instant status effect such as Death to require a countdown before happening will decrease the countdown's SA cost change from the spell.

 N/A +/- 8 SA 20 skill points
Instant Effect This component causes either the spell or the effect of the spell it is placed on, to happen instantly. When creating a spell and you want the instant effect for the entire spell, there is no SA or Stat increase.

However, if you want to apply the instant duration only to one aspect of a spell's effect, it will increase the spell's SA cost by 2 SA per application. For example, say you have a spell who's main effect will be an 1d4 rounds, but that same spell also has heat exhaustion, and you want heat exhaustion to be instant effect. Applying this to heat exhaustion would increase the spell's SA cost by 2. But if you had simply made the whole spell an instant effect there would be no increase to SA cost.		 N/A +2 SA (first application free) 10 skill points
Permanent Effect This allows a beneficial effect from a spell to become permanent. N/A +20 SA 100 skill points
Until Cured This allows an ongoing damage effect to stay on the target indefinitely. The only way to stop the effect is to dispel it, cure it, or die. N/A +10 SA 25 skill points
Trigger Effect This allows a spell that has multiple trigger effects, to last until all assigned triggers have been used, regardless of the number of rounds.

Trigger effect takes place when target of spell…

  • Uses an Attack, Defense, Support, Movement, or Magic action. (Pick one) 10 SA/10 skill points
  • "X" number of rounds go by: 2 SA/skill points per round.
  • Suffers from a specific status effect, including death. (Pick one) 10 SA/10 skill points
  • HP, SA OR EP is reduced to a specific number (Pick one) 5 SA/5 skill points
  • PR, MR, OR DP reaches a specific number (Pick one) 5 SA/5 skill points
  • Enemy/Ally moves into spell area (Pick one) 10 SA / 10 skill points
  • Benefits from healing 5 SA/ 5 skill points
  • Takes secondary or delayed damage (damage over time effects) 5 SA/ 5 skill points
  • Takes HP damage 10 SA/10 skill points
  • Retaliation - happens whenever you are attacked regardless if H.P. is affected. 20 SA/20 skill points
     

This component can be applied to any effect in the place of or along side a duration component. Furthermore this component can make instant effect spells not take place until the trigger event takes place. One example would be to apply this component to Spark of Life, creating basically a triggered resurrection spell. The spell caster would cast the spell on the target, but the spell would not actually cast until the death event trigger takes place. Upon that trigger, the spell would cast reviving the dead character.
