Finding the Center

This spell is a more powerful version of aiming at the target. Like that spell, finding the center can be cast after a spell that requires concentration. The casting is a series of breathing exercises that releases the power of the spell. Once finding the center is cast, the wu jen no longer need concentrate on the first spell for it to have effect. His unconscious mind maintains the concentration required for the spell. The wu jen is free to take other actions-movement, combat, casting other spells, or any activity he could normally under- take. The concentration required by the first spell cannot be broken unless the wu jen is slain, his mind enfeebled, confused, or controlled, or the spell's duration ends.

Notes: Restricted to oriental wizards and those trained by them; common.
