Spellweaver (Magicka-like)

# Spellweaver (Magicka-like spellcasting)

Elemental spellcasting inspired by **Magicka**. No wands, no mana bars to grind: press up to five elements, then cast. **Every combination does something.**

## Features

- **8 elements, 1286 spells.** Fire, Water, Cold, Lightning, Earth, Life, Arcane and Death combine into every possible formula of one to five elements, each with its own effect.
- **204 signature spells** in the Grimoire, searchable by name or tag (`#building`, `#damage`, `#summon`, `#support`…), with four quick-cast slots.
- **Tiers that matter.** One to three elements are support, hexes and jokes; four is the combat tier; five is the top shelf with ritual-ordered ultimates — storms, meteor showers, tornadoes and elemental titans rising from the ground.
- **Shape the world.** Bridges, stairs, walls, pillars, ice spikes and a 5×5×5 shape editor for your own stone sculptures. Earth and roots stay; ice and arcane fade.
- **Status reactions.** Wet amplifies cold and lightning, fire thaws ice, life heals, death drains and raises undead servants.
- **18 specialist enemies** — shield beetles, goblin mages, countermages and more — each built to test a different school of magic.
- **Gear** that tunes your element powers, area, duration, summons and cast speed.
- **Datapack spells.** Any recipe can be added or replaced by a datapack.
