Earth Spike

Earth Spike is a direct attack against a creature standing on the ground. Its power depends on a suitable surface and gives the Earth school a clearly aimed offensive tool. In the story, it can emphasize the caster's connection to soil and stone, but that theme does not overcome the explicit restrictions on the environment in which the spell actually works.

Before using it, check where the target is standing. The spell does not work in the air and cannot automatically be used on a deck without stone or soil. The attack is resolved against magical defense rather than as an ordinary strike with a conventional weapon. Additional entrapment, knocking down, or changes to the surrounding terrain are not part of the listed effect.

Exact effect: A direct earth attack against the target's MDEF. Bonus: +2 to MATK. Target: 1 target standing on the ground within sight. Duration: instantaneous. Restrictions: does not work in the air or on a deck without stone or soil. Using it requires at least Intelligence 7, the appropriate casting ability, and knowledge of this spell. Meeting the numerical requirements alone does not grant knowledge of the spell.
