Eldritch Crystals
The caster unleashes a stream or swarm of magical crystals that will bombard a target upon his command. The crystals will appear, attack the target, cause physical damage equal to the spell rank, then disappear. These are physical manifestations of magic and are affected by defenses that protect the target from physical damage (body armor, force fields, battlesuits, bullet-proof clothing, etc.). The crystals will attack only 1 target chosen by the caster, if there are several targets in a single area.
