How about designing an area effect spell to make level 10 stim patches=
explode, or better yet transform into White Phosphorus!

Maybe my mage is just a little vindictive, but that's the way he would deal=
with it. That way he could hit those "mage killers" the next time he sees=
them with some poetic revenge. He'd give them enough time to almost deal=
with the WP burning in their pockets, then finish them with <pick your own =
favorite>.

Usint this type of spell would give him a strong weapon against this party,=
and would be effective against most shadowrunning teams, who carry them so=
they don't have to worry about draining their mage durring the run.

One question for GM's out there. Would the mage have to be able to see the=
stim patch for this type of area effect spell to work? I'm not sure if it=
would effect patches that are completely inside pockets.
