It may need a new name but casters have a new skill. It allows them to throw a single damage magical bolt. This "magical missile" can be improved in damage through the purchase of this skill, much like weapon specialization. This should shore up the casters and make them more survivable.
Now whether this ability can be blocked or has a verbal is still in debate. But not as in debate as the name is. Enjoy!

Thank you for kicking me in the butt to come up with a name. I've restricted it until I do.
On an unrelated note, the permissions update is complete. Jessi, you should now see, access, and use all of the restricted character options, as well as see other people's PCs and NPCs.

Arcana?
I think it should be blockable at least with a shield.
