Arcane Wall
Spell
Time:
Action
Target:
A number of contiguous spaces within sight
Cost:
Defense:
Health save reduces, health save escapes
Duration:
Repel d10, or until the caster rests, whichever comes first
You create a wall of raging arcane power, which is difficult to pass through.
Select a number of contiguous spaces, up to a limit. A wall of hazardous arcane energies 30 ft. high forms in the chosen spaces.
You cannot cast this spell on an occupied space.
This enchantment does not overlap or stack on the same space.
If multiple Arcane Walls overlap on the same space, only the strongest wall has any effect on that space.
Any ranged attack which passes through the wall has disadvantage.
The wall provides partial concealment to objects on the other side of it.
A creature which attempts to enter a space occupied by the wall, or starts its turn in a space occupied by the wall must make a health save or try a test of Strength.
Pass:
If it passes, it may enter and pass through the wall freely, but it takes damage for each space that the wall occupies which it traverses.
Fail:
If it fails, it is repelled by the wall if it tried to enter, or trapped within if it was already inside.
It takes damage and is immobilized for the rest of that turn.
Repel d10:
Each time something tries to pass through the wall, roll a d10.
If you roll a 1, the wall is exhausted and fades away, after that object is repelled or forces its way through the wall.
You can end this spell as a fast action.
Suggested Backfire: You imprison your space within an arcane wall, which you cannot dismiss.
Affinity:
When you take this class, choose which element your Arcane Walls are.
Whenever you cast this spell, it will normally be of that element.
You can try to cast this spell using a different element, but must pass a DC 20 test of Spellcraft each time to change the element from what it normally is.

Requires: Mastery
You may move your Arcane Wall 5 ft. on each of your turns.
If it moves into an occupied space, the creature that was in the space must pass a DC 16 health save or be pushed 5 ft. in the direction of the wall’s movement if space is available.
(If this would push it into a mortal hazard, it gets advantage on its save.)
