Look Here Too

Note: Optional Rule: This spell is horrible to witness and feel. The fireflies
attack the person by flying by him at a close distance, thus creating jagged
burns marks, and essentially flaying him at the same time. This is an intimida
tion tool as well as a combat spell, Thus any spectator or the victim himself
must make a Willpower versus the spell in order to keep from breaking down ment
ally -- in this form the spell, in addition to its other properties, creates
a specific test so the new spell is Drain: |(F/2) + 2|D
