Description¶
When the wizard casts this spell, a jet of searing flame shoots from his fingertips. The burning hands send out flame jets of 5-foot length in a horizontal arc of about 120 degrees in front of the wizard. Any creature in the area of the flames suffers 1d3 points of damage, plus 2 points for each level of experience of the caster, to a maximum of 1d3+20 points of fire damage. Those successfully saving vs. spell receive half damage.
