The best I can do is focus really hard during my meditations, over a long period of time, to eventually get something similar to what I want, but not what I want. Otherwise, I would have spells for actual defense and offense, rather than roundabout. Knowing magical theory is just a way for wizards and their ilk to sound like they know what they are talking about so they can be condescending, when they really know just as much as the next mortal."
