Spellcasting. The professor casts one of the following spells, requiring no material components and using Charisma as the spellcasting ability (spell save DC 15):
At will: minor illusion
2/day each: fog cloud, gust of wind, mage armor
Multiattack. The professor makes three Cinder Strike attacks.
Cinder Strike. Melee Spell Attack: +7 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. Hit:13 (2d8 + 4) fire damage.
Lightning Flourish (Recharge). The professor unleashes arcs of magical lightning at up to two creatures it can see within 60 feet of itself. Each target must make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw, taking 35 (10d6) lightning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Flaming Leap. The professor is wreathed in flames and jumps up to 30 feet in any direction. When the professor lands, the flames erupt in a 10-foot radius around the professor and then vanish. Each creature of the professor's choice in that area must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw or take 7 (2d6) fire damage.
Professors of expression embody the flare of Prismari magic. Using continuous motion, fluid grace, and interweaving steps, these teachers channel the elements of wind, flame, and lightning to accompany them. Their magic is fast and beautiful, which becomes swift death in battle, mesmerizing in its energetic flow. Devastating lightning strikes and searing lashes of flame meet the professors' foes head on.
