===Notes===
* '''No Magnitude''', '''No Area''' and '''No Duration''' do not actually affect the inner workings of the effect, checking them just makes it so these parameters will be unavailable when you assign the effect to a [[Spell]], [[Scroll]], [[Potion]], [[Shout]] or [[Enchantment]]. (The area is always unavailable when creating a [[Spell]] unless '''Auto Calculate''' is turned off in the Spell dialog)
