It causes 2-8 DG of fire damage to anyone within 1" of the caster during the duration of the spell. It will be canceled by very heavy rain or immersion. During the duartion it adds the effects of Fire resistance upon teh caster, but increases cold damage by +1/dice. Obviously, Styrman developped iceform too (use your prefered components, sulphur and glass or mashed firenewt brains and snowman's broom respectively, or whatever!) MU9 Melf's Ultimate Megablast (evocation) Area : 1" per level of teh caster sphere Casting time: 3 segments Components: V,S, M Duration:inst This is teh ultimate suicide system. Once again, I guess many others may have their own version of Megablast. The idea is that in a desperate situation, the caster bursts out all his energy in a ball of pure energy causing 1d6 of magical damage per spell levels remaining in teh caster's memory (+ 9d6 for teh Megablast itself). Save for half damage, Magic resistance reduces damage again by 1/2 (shock wave remains). The caster himself has a 50% chance of being disintegrated (save applies, if save then damages as above), and a 50% chance of ending naked on another random plane. Well I told you it was desperate! Material component is a platinum dagger teh MU uses for suicide. (Good idea, naked but with a platinum knife somewhere in the abyss...) NB Melf is in Greyhawk, change name if Copyright problems; I wanted to give more flesh to this archmage. Cantrip Styrman's Luminous eyes Area: Caster Duration: 1 round Component :S Causes teh caster's eyes to become luminous (not a light source worth a damn, but pretty impressive)
