Name	Earth Shock
Vocals	“By my exalted might and the power of the elements, I drive Air into Earth to make the very ground tremble with an Earth Shock – Mass Strike Down”
Call	Mass Strike Down
Range	60ft / 20m
Duration	Instantaneous
Cost	20 magic points
Key Words	Exalted / Elemental / Combat
Description	This spell allows the caster (or more usually a referee acting as directed by the caster) to call Mass Strike Down as a target point within range. Even characters able to continuously call Strength are affected, unless they have a specific ability to resist or ignore knockdown effects. All creatures within a 30 ft / 10 m radius of the spell’s target are knocked off their feet. Note: As with any mass spell, this spell may be resisted or countered at the level of the individual effect (i.e. Strike Down). Individuals can resist this spell with the skills Resist Magic and Resist Exalted Magic or counter it (for themselves only) with the spells Countermagic, Greater Countermagic and Nullify. As with all mass spells, countering and resisting only defends one subject. Cancelling the whole spell requires a special item or ability.
Skills	None (i.e. this skill must be researched or acquired in play)
