Simply by pointing, looking steadfast in the direction and possibly adding a verbal cue (such as "look!") the caster momentarily takes attention away from himself (especially if there is something there to see!).

Blur (1; MV; Chaos, Illusion, Wild)
Com:None A/T:Caster CT:10-30 sec. Dur:Variable

Com:None A/T:One Recipient CT:10-30 sec. Dur:Variable
Quickly assess the target and try to ascertain his best personal reasons for assisting you. Phrase these reasons to him clearly while maintaining steadfast eye contact.

* These represent the minimum spells per level a caster must learn before advancement to the next level as well as the maximum they may have prepared per level. While this may seem to be great numbers for advanced mages, a 'master caster' will be able, given concentration time and the necessary components, to cast for several hours before needing rest and repreperation.

+ Casters may progress above Level 9, adding two spells per level as they advance as per the standard progression of this table. Spells above level 9 are not available except to their crafters and those he selects to teach them to. See your instructor for further information on these.
