Douse

Douse is one of the most basic spells in a mage's spellbook.

Description
Due to the fact that mages often work with fire - which sometimes is difficult to douse - this spell is essential for the mage in order to put out any kind of fire, regardless if it may be natural or magical in origin. It is the opposite spell to Ignite. Please note that this spell does not extinguish fire fields - for that the spell Dispel Field is needed. While already having low conditions when first made available, constant research by mages made it a linear spell, no longer consuming mana or reagents.

If every fire in sight has to be doused, however, then the Great Douse spell is more efficient.

Trivia

 * In Ultima VII, this spell is redundant, as everything can be doused with a double-click.
 * This spell is used very often in puzzles in Ultima IX. It's pretty much the second-most used spell in the entire game.
 * On Pagan, the spell Extinguish has the same effect.
