Abilities

Ability	From level	Costs	Does
Shock Bolt A crack of lightning at a foe.	1	12 mana, 2.5 s cooldown	Damage Lightning 11 (+2 a level)
Arc Five Pavogani's: five bolts at once, fanned like a handful of gravel. The middle one goes where you aim; the others find their own along the arc. Into the middle of a crowd -- at one foe alone it is one bolt.	1	8 mana, 3 s cooldown	Damage Lightning 9 (+1.5 a level)
Thunder Clap A clap of thunder about a foe: a little harm, and it is stunned for a moment.	3	18 mana, 10 s cooldown	Damage Lightning 5 (+1 a level); Stun 0 for 1 s
Static Charge Fill a foe with crackling lightning: it is struck every half second for six seconds.	10	16 mana, 8 s cooldown	DamageOverTime Lightning 3 (+0.5 a level) for 6 s
Arc Hounds Three sparks run down the closest foes, each its own, and each jumps once more to the next closest at seven tenths of the blow. You need no target. Sparks with nothing to run down die out.	15	22 mana, 12 s cooldown	Damage Lightning 4 (+0.8 a level)
Chainbolt A bolt that will not stop at one: it strikes the foe and jumps to three more within six metres, a little weaker at each.	20	24 mana, 10 s cooldown	Damage Lightning 14 (+2.4 a level)
