A verbal is a spell or ability that uses an incantation causing an instant effect or state.

Most verbals follow the same format: They state your name, point at you, and say an incantation of three repetitions of a phrase that activates the Verbal.

Most offensive Verbals have very descriptive incantations. The incantation typically contains the School and the State or Effect of the Magic or Ability being used.

Example: The incantation for Hold Person is “I command thee to stop” three times; The School is ‘Command’ and the State it inflicts is ‘Stopped’.

No Verbal has a range greater than 50’. If you can get further away from the caster than that, you won’t be affected.

Verbals have a range of either:

  • Self
  • Touch
  • 10'
  • 50'

A verbal can always be used a range closer than what is listed, ie. a verbal with a range of "touch" can be used on yourself.

The effects of all verbals lasts 30 seconds, the only exception being Break Concentration, which lasts 10 seconds.
