-Name: Weakening mist

-User: Heliotrope Vortimer

-Introduction: a cloud of mist that reduces the momentum/speed of anything in its area. Starts weak, but ramps up over time. Always tries to move to keep the user in the center, but moves slower than them so it can lag behind.

-Description: A cloud of purplish mist that surrounds the user in a large sphere. It is not particularly thick, not enought to hide in, but seeing faces within it is difficult at a distance. The slowing effect of the mist ramps up over time and the smaller the object the faster this effect takes place. The user can choose a person or object to be exempt from the effects of the mist, and are automatically exempt from the effects themselves. When a object or creature enters the radius they begin slowly losing momentum and speed, barely noticable at first for a human, but after 10 to 15 seconds the person will begin to slow down, making their movements sluggish kinda like the weird feeling that sometimes happens in dreams, and after 60 seconds a person would be basically frozen in place. A standard pistol bullet will slow down to non lethal levels by the time it reaches the center of the cloud (high velocity ammo and higher power firearms are affected but slower, so more when they pass 3/4 through the mist radius. The mist moves at around 4 feet per second, making it drag behind the user if they move to fast for it to keep up.

-Range: Medium, as the radius of the mist cloud is around 15-20 feet.

-Type: Conjuration.

-Purpose: Mix of all types. Can slow down opponents who are fighting in the radius, making them sluggish and easier to fight for offense, slowing projectiles to non lethal levels for defense, and a few possible utility tricks.

-Visual Cue: A big cloud of purplish mist exploding from the users body, with all the usual visual traits of mist.

-Auditive Cue: Just a windy poof sound effect.

-General Limitations: The range is quite limited as it is a 15-20 foot radius, which moves quite slowly. The time it takes for a creature to be slowed down to much to be able to leave the radius is much much more than it would take a creature to realize the effects and get out of the radius. Only one cloud can be active at one time, and the user can only create a new one every minute or so.

-Applications: The user keeps the semblance a secret, using it as a surprise trick to slow opponents just enough to land a fatal or at least disabling blow. Combined with the users shield and generally defensive fighting style, the opponent is to busy slashing away at the user to realize the effects before it is to late. A fun use is to activate it while falling to allow the users team to float to the ground without needing to employ landing strategies.

-Dust Interaction: None.

-Notes: Tried to make a general debuff focused semblance, themed for a kinda hunter of hunters type character.
