Earthstokers use this spell to release pent-up seismic force points in small doses in a given area, preventing SFPS from reaching a critical level. To determine the number of SFPS released, roll 3d100. To determine what seismic events are triggered by the casting of this spell, consult the consequences of Volcano Magic sidebar. The force released by a single casting of this spell triggers mudpots, splattercones, solfatara, and sulfurous fumes. (See the Consequences of Volcano Magic sidebar.) Multiple castings of seismic trigger on a single area are cumulative, so several careless earthstokers could trigger more dangerous effects.

The number of SFPS returns to normal at a gradual rate of 10 SFPS per day.

The material components for this spell are two lodestones shaken inside a tinder box; these components are not consumed in the casting.
