DurationA few momentsA minuteA few minutesAn hourA few hoursA daySeveral days

Confused creatures fail to distinguish friends from foe. In violent situations they may revert back to a primal fight or flight response, causing harm to anyone, including themselves.

Time Dialation (S)

You can push yourself to apply one of the following to a number of creatures equal to 1 + the spell's Tier for up to a minute: quicken their reactions giving their defensive actions +1 effect-slow their reactions giving offensive actions against them +1 effect

Temporal Shift (S)

You can push yourself to temporarily age or de-age an object, increasing or decreasing its quality by 1.

Tier0123456
DurationA few momentsA minuteA few minutesAn hourA few hoursA daySeveral days

For example, you may age a lock reduce its quality and make it easier to pick, or you may de-age a sword to improve its quality and effectiveness. The change in quality does not effect any magical properties of the item. Increasing the quality of a spell scroll in this way may make it look nicer, but the spell cast from it still uses the scroll's original Tier.
