Rian’s head snapped towards the treeline as soon as the roar reached them, bringing his staff up to bear with a smooth spin. Noticing the rustling of the corn stalks as something began to charge towards the group, he began to backpedal away from the others, intending to spread out so the creature couldn’t simply charge in amongst their group. Without waiting for it to reveal itself, he began to gather the mana and concentration needed to unleash his spell. Lowering the staff so the tip was pointed forward and aimed towards the cornfield, he began his chant.

[color=39b54a]“Weakness revealed, vulnerabilities exposed, Frailty of Movement and Toughness.”[/color] As he muttered the chant quietly, a dark glow began to gather around the staff’s head, streams of darkness swirling around the two prongs. Thrusting the staff forward when the ExBeast finally revealed itself with a jump, the gathered glow streamed forth to surround and envelop the Cockatrice. Even mid-air, the creature seemed to immediately falter as the curse took hold, sapping it of its agility.
