The mage weaves a protective measure into an electronic device or other device capable of holding a significant charge of electrical energy. Unauthorized individuals touching the device receive a powerful shock.
Shock victims suffer bashing damage equal to the number of Mana spent during item creation.
If Sleepers witness the same device delivering repeated shocks, Disbelief might come into play, unless the device is connected to a power source at the time, offering a plausible excuse for its effect.
Free Council Rote: Hands Off
Free Council mages use this spell to protect their favorite Enchanted Items and other pieces of critical gear. For this reason, booting up a Free Councilor’s laptop without permission is unwise.
