Dust To Dust

Created by R_Nixon

Dust To Dust is a potent arcane force that defies traditional spellcasting. Rather than incantations or gestures, it manifests as a sudden and unstoppable force. When the challenge is issued, the target is swiftly reduced to nothing more than bone and ash, crumbling away before the eyes of onlookers. The speed of this transformation varies, with some able to witness their own hands disappearing before the rest of their body succumbs to the relentless erosion. This mysterious effect has caused great consternation among the Archmages, who are powerless to resist its power or even comprehend its origins. Until someone can withstand the onslaught of Dust To Dust, its true nature will remain shrouded in mystery. This always occurs to those who openly challenge Ozz of the Aether. The eldest and most secretive of the Archmages and who hasn't been seen in centuries.
