The mage's focus is balance with a secondary focus on fate manipulation spells.

But what would "balance" spells do, exactly? Like, if she has a defensive spell would it make the other spellcaster suffer the same effects?

I hate to put it into RPG terms, but it's easy that way: would her defensive spells deal an equal amount of dmg she takes to her attacker?

I like the idea of a Balance Mage, but I've been struggling with what exactly her spells would do.

And maybe her spells just aren't combat oriented? Or they're super subtle?

I wish I had worked out her magic earlier, before the quickly approaching battle she's going to be in.

I'm totally open to suggestions or ideas, btw. ;-)

Balance shouldn't be something that's combat-oriented, I don't think!

It would probably be better off in terms of raw damage/repair.

To remove entropy from one area (i.e. fix it), the same amount of entropy has to be dispersed somehow

Maybe not all necessary onto a single target, but defused.

Maybe a balance mage makes effigies or other talismans that are specifically-designed to take damage when they do their magic.

Alternately, when they destroy things, they have to channel that excess energy into an equal amount of creation

or else it backlashes onto the body, possibly the growth of cancerous tumors etc?
