Increase Gravity

Required Rank	Earth 5
Range	10 yards x Rank
Area	1 Target
Duration	Concentration
Casting	Verbal, Somatic
Effect	A target who fails a Magic Resist is crushed brutally into the ground as their body experiences increasing levels of gravity. The effect gets increasingly stronger over the duration, quickly ramping up to devastating lethal damage. Targets with medium and heavy armor suffer double their normal armor check penalties to skills and movement for the duration of the spell (an additional -1 for medium, and -2 for heavy). The spell is broken if the caster breaks line-of-sight with the target, stops concentrating on the spell, or is rendered unconscious. Wards may prevent the damage taken.
