[[Ability]] Type: [[Spell]], Difficulty 19 
Provided By: [[Blood Magic]]

Spell Type: [[Essence Magic|Essence]], [[Blood Magic]] 
[[Spell Attributes|Form]]: [[Direct Touch]]/[[Contained]] (touch required to cast, but spell remains contained within target) 
Function: Utility, Defence 
[[Power Cost]]: Special (equal to one quarter of target's Physique, round up) 
[[Spell Duration|Duration]]: [[Maintainable]] 
Notes: [[Resisted]]

This spell taps into the Essence of primal fury that lingers in all blood, infusing its target with a supernatural rage that strengthens them in battle but clouds their judgement. Red Mist's target gains resistance to [[Shock]] and increased [[Stats|Strength]], [[Stats|Willpower]] and [[Initiative]], but loses [[Stats|Intelligence]] and [[Stats|Empathy]] and gains levels of [[Bloodlust]]. In addition Red Mist provides a +1 bonus to all melee attacks, but a -1 penalty to all other actions. After the spell ends its negatives effects linger for a few turns afterwards – fading by one point or level for every full [[Turn]] that the character is free of the spell.

Shock Resistance: 1 x [[Power]] (round up, subtracted from all instances of Shock suffered) 
Strength Modifier: x1.5 
Initiative/Willpower Bonus: +1 
Intelligence/Empathy Penalty: -3 (fades by one point per turn after spell ends) 
Bloodlust Gained: 5 Levels (fades by one level per turn after spell ends) 
Melee Attack Bonus: +1 [[AM]] 
Penalty to All Other Actions: -1 (fades one turn after spell ends)
