E.24.11: Absorb aura blast [9186]


Usage:  USE 9186 <flag>
Time to learn: 28 days.

Knowledge of 9186 will, by default, cause the mage to absorb any blasts of aura instead of being harmed by them. The mage absorbing the blast gains 1/2 of the aura originally used in the blast.

Instead of absorbing aura, the blast may be reflected back to the attacker. To set this option, specify a flag of 1:

	use 9186 1	# reflect aura blasts back at attacker
	use 9186 0	# absorb aura blasts into current aura

Aura blasts may only be reflected once. If a blast is reflected back to an attacker with knowledge of 9186, the attacker will be harmed, and will not absorb or reflect the blast.
