Aqua Surge is a devastatingly powerful water elemental spell that conjures an immense volume of water and propels it with great force towards a target. The conjured water persists for an extended duration or permanently, allowing for both immediate and lasting effects on the environment and combatants.
As the spell scales with level, it demonstrates the ability to move increasingly larger creatures, making it a formidable force in combat against even the most colossal of foes. The volume of conjured water also increases dramatically, ranging from large bodies of water at its most basic to unimaginably vast volumes at its peak.
While primarily used as an attack, legendary casters can also use Aqua Surge for massive-scale terraforming, creating seas where none existed before, carving new river systems, or even altering planetary hydrology.
The water conjured by Aqua Surge is pure and can be safely consumed, providing both hydration and nourishment. This makes the spell an invaluable resource for survival in harsh environments or for sustaining large populations.
However, there's a significant risk associated with consuming non-permanent water conjured by this spell: If the spell's duration expires or the spell is dispelled while the conjured water is still in a creature's system, that creature experiences a severe headache lasting 12 hours. This headache is debilitating, removing one attack, one spell, and one general action per turn for its duration.
