Energy Substitution, Caustic

Basic Mental Method [Metacast]

Prerequisites: Mental Rank 4

Casting Prerequisite: To gain the benefit of this Metacast ability you must be Rank 4 or higher in the philosophy relevant to the power you are casting.

Free Action

Cost: CT +2

Effect: Having trained extensively in the use of what you believe to be a potent element, you can exchange the energies of elemental powers with your preferred type. When you cast a spell that deals Cold, Fire, Lightning, or Sonic damage, you may deal Caustic damage instead. The power gains the Caustic keyword and loses the keyword for the original energy type.

Special: Only one Metacast ability may be used on a single casting of a power.
