This spell creates a strong blast of air originating from the caster and emanating outward in one direction.

• The caster casts the spell and designates the area of effect (direction).

• The blast of air will cause the following effects:

  • Any small open flames (e.g. torches) in the area will be extinguished.

  • Protected flames (e.g. lanterns) have a chance equal to 5% per caster level of being extinguished.

  • Large fires will blast an area in the direction of the wind with flames (possibly causing damage to creatures in 10-ft. per the GM).

  • Unattached, light objects (per the GM) will be blown over.

  • The air blast can affect magical clouds, fogs, etc. See descriptions for these spells.

  • Small creatures in flight will be blown back 1d6 x10 feet.

  • Man-sized creatures in flight will be held motionless if flying against the wind.

  • Large creatures in flight will be slowed by 50% for the round if flying against the wind.
