Abilities

Ability	From level	Costs	Does
Gust A hard gust of wind at a foe.	1	12 mana, 2.5 s cooldown	Damage Air 10 (+2 a level)
Blink The Mage's step: eight metres the way you face, in a flash -- through nothing solid. Twelve metres at Air Magic 60. Once every 15 seconds.	1	15 mana, 15 s cooldown
Cyclone A whirl of wind about a foe: a little harm, and for two seconds it is too spun about to use anything.	3	15 mana, 9 s cooldown	Damage Air 4 (+1 a level); Daze 0 for 2 s
Wind Blades Three blades of wind in a narrow fan: the middle one goes where you aim, the others find their own foes along the arc. At one foe alone it is one blade.	10	15 mana, 8 s cooldown	Damage Air 7 (+1.4 a level)
Hunting Gale Three fists of wind find the closest foes, each its own, and throw each one four paces back. You need no target. A gust with nothing to find blows itself out.	15	22 mana, 12 s cooldown	Damage Air 4 (+0.8 a level); Push 4
Downdraft A column of wind slammed down on the foe: it strikes, and throws the foe to the ground for a second.	20	18 mana, 12 s cooldown	Damage Air 14 (+2.4 a level); Knockdown 0 for 1 s
Recall The Mage's way home: three seconds of wind, and you stand at the waystone you last left by, on this land or another. Your party has ten seconds to step into the portal you leave behind and follow. Not in a fight, not while trading; a blow while it gathers breaks it. Once every five minutes.	30	30 mana, 300 s cooldown
