Spell

Traditional Animation Corruption.

Created by ArcaneWitch5499

This potent spell grants the caster dominion over the visual integrity of hand-drawn worlds, unraveling the carefully constructed illusions that hold them together. When invoked, the caster's corruption spreads through ink bleeds and progressive frame degradation, causing colors to seep beyond their boundaries while animation stutters with missing frames and glitching background elements. The spell's most insidious effect warps the fundamental physics of traditionally animated realms, forcing corrupted characters into jarring transitions between unnatural rigidity and grotesque, excessive malleability. As the caster channels this magic, their own form transforms into a manifestation of living corruption—a dark, ink-like substance threaded with glitching patterns and pulsing veins of purple energy. Their appearance becomes a perversion of hand-drawn aesthetics, shifting through impossible perspective changes and executing movements that violate the established rules of traditional animation. Fragments of corrupted media occasionally crystallize around the caster's form, serving as both a testament to their power and a warning of the spell's destructive reach. Those who master this spell learn to weaponize the very foundations of animation itself.

Effects

Effects

Upon casting, the target area becomes corrupted, causing all animated creatures within to make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, they suffer 4d6 psychic damage and their movement speed is halved for the duration. Additionally, they experience erratic movements, imposing disadvantage on Dexterity saving throws and attack rolls. The caster's form becomes a dark, ink-like substance with glitching patterns, gaining advantage on Charisma (Intimidation) checks against animated creatures.
