Disrupt casting
Regular; resisted by
Duration: instant
Cost: 2 (?)
Time to cast: 1
Prerequisite: Magery 2 (?)

Works similarly to counterspell but must target a spell that is in the process if being cast. The meta concept of this spell is that it pumps more mana into a spell unbalancing the casting and hopefully stopping the casting. The caster must know or guess what spell is being cast. (Thamaturgy rolls if there is any doubt)This is followed by a quick contest vs the target spell. If the caster of disrupt wins the contest then the target spell fizzles. (Possibly triggering a roll on critical failure chart??)if the disrupt spell fails then the other caster gains a bonus equal to the margin if they choose to target the caster of the disrupt spell. If the targeted spell is a missile spell the bonus can be applied to the "throw"
