Concept: The Haze is a type of spellcaster with abnormal ethereal powers. Their spells are based around manipulation of the unseen world to affect the world that they live in. Unlike Ritualists, who call forth spirits to protect and deal damage from this world, a haze will manipulate something with ties to that other realm to create a material effect in this one.

Special abilities: A haze has the ability to hex foes for an indefinite amount of time with the penalty of -1 energy regeneration. This class introduces maintained hexes, similar to maintained enchantments. A maintained hex will be removed if the Haze dies, it is removed by spell, the Haze removes, the Haze runs out of energy, or the Haze goes out of range.

Charge Spells: A haze also has another new type of spell called a charge spell. The charge spell is a spell that gains power with each use within a certain time frame. If the spell is interrupted, or if the time limit runs out then the charge is negated and it returns to it's base.

Example: Bluebell Flames. spell. Target foe takes 15 fire damage. Every time this spell is used within 15 seconds, it deals an additional 10...15 fire damage (max 90 damage). Energy: 5 Cast time: 2 Recharge 10
