First created by the sorcerer Palin when he was trobled by a group of goblins, this spell has rapidly gained favor among sorcerers. When you cast this spell, you summon gouts of flame from the ground, dealing 3d6 points of fire damage to all within the area of effect. In addition, any creature affected must succeed on a Reflex save or catch on fire (see Catching on Fire in the Dungeon’s Master Guide).
