Magic Attack Roll: Rolls against the area of the light source
This spell is a simple enough application of the shadow sorcerer’s dislike of light. By reaching out and grabbing the air symbolically, the sorcerer fills the area around a single light source (torch, campfire, lantern and so on) with the cold of darkness – snuffing it out completely. This does not make the light source unable to be relit; it merely extinguishes it for the moment. The sorcerer’s magic attack roll must meet a certain level before the spell will be able to put out larger lights. This is calculated on the following table.
Magic Attack Result | Maximum Light Source Extinguishable |
---|---|
5 – 9 | Candle, wick, cigar, or pipe |
10 – 14 | Torch, lantern |
15 – 19 | Candelabra, flaming brand |
20 – 24 | Campfire, chandelier |
25 – 29 | Bonfire |
30 or higher | House fire |
