The Spellbook

Every spell in Spellisimo is a gesture you can learn. Below is a working list of core spells, the rune you draw for each, and what it does. More spells unlock through dungeon runs and seasonal rewards.

Fire & Storm

Raw damage. The spells you open a duel with when you want to pressure fast.

Emberfall

Gesture: Zigzag your finger rapidly back and forth.
Effect: Releases a rain of glowing embers that scorches anything in their fall path. The heat lingers for a heartbeat after the spell lands.

Blaze

Gesture: Trace a triangle on the pad — three sharp corners, closed.
Effect: Sears the target with a triangular sigil of living fire. The initial burst scorches hard, and the flames cling — burning the foe over several seconds (or turns, in a duel of mages).; ✦ Deals damage and ignites the target — burns for extra damage every second in dungeons, every turn in PvP.

Voltrend

Gesture: Draw a straight line outward from the center.
Effect: A focused bolt of white lightning leaps from the wand tip in a straight line, striking the first object in its path.

Earth & Light

Control the field. Root enemies, blind them, and dictate the pace of the fight.

Terragrip

Gesture: Scribe a V below, then a single tap above it.
Effect: Summons a cleft of jagged stone that closes around the target while a single binding mote drops from above, locking them in place. Deals light damage — the real weapon is the stillness it leaves behind.

Solara

Gesture: Sweep an arc partway around the center.
Effect: A bright pulse of sunlight that pushes back shadow and momentarily blinds anything nearby. Useful at night or in caves.; ✦ Marks the target — your next damaging spell is a guaranteed critical hit (2× damage).

Shadow & Death

Dark magic. Bypass defenses, drain life, and punish overconfident opponents.

Umbracleft

Gesture: Scribe two vertical lines, side by side.
Effect: Carves a crescent rune of living shadow that cleaves through armour and lingering wards alike, leaving a brief umbral scar on whatever it touches.; ✦ Deals damage and empowers your next Dark spell for +30% damage.

Mortum

Gesture: Scribe two V shapes, stacked one above the other.
Effect: A crushing verdict of shadow. Two cleaving sigils fall in sequence, tearing through flesh and ward alike with devastating force — but the caster must recover between invocations.

Ward & Life

Survival. The difference between a clutch win and an overconfident death.

Aegix

Gesture: Draw a full circle around the center.
Effect: Weaves a rotating barrier of pale blue light around the caster, deflecting projectiles and minor hexes for a short time.; ✦ Weaves a shield that absorbs damage.

Lifeweave

Gesture: Trace a plus — vertical stroke, then horizontal.
Effect: A soft pulse of restorative radiance. The weave knits a little of the caster's vitality back together — never enough to turn a fight, but enough to buy another breath.; ✦ Restores HP to the caster.
