Bounce

A spell created by the mage Nystul, Bounce endows the caster with physical properties akin to a rubber ball.

This effect can be most beneficial, as otherwise dangerous falls will no longer injure the caster for the spell's duration. On the contrary, hitting the ground after such a plunge will simply prompt the mage to jump back up to their original elevation. Furthermore, the spell-caster will harmlessly bounce off any walls they might collide with.

Farcical implications aside, Bounce can open creative avenues for accessing typically unreachable locations. 

Trivia

 * The spell is indeed useful to create a shortcut in one section of the Scintillus Academy.


 * Nystul notes that most mages probably wouldn't want to use the spell, seeing it as undignified. He suggests the Slow Fall spell instead.


 * It also can substitute for the spells Jump and Levitate, but not for Fly.
