Sprite Venom

By means of this spell, the caster can create an ointment similar to that employed by sprites to coat the tips of their arrows. For every level of the caster, the caster can create enough sprite venom to coat the tip of a single arrow, dart, needle, or quarrel. (Sling bullets and other missile weapons that inflict bludgeoning damage do not benefit from the application of sprite venom.)

Any creature struck by an arrow treated with sprite venom must make a saving throw vs. poison or fall into a deep sleep lasting 1d6 turns. Unlike the ointment created by sprites, magic resistance protects against the ointment created by this spell.

The material components are the priest's holy symbol and a pinch of sand from a sandman, a type of elemental from the Elemental Plane of Earth.

Notes: Granted by the elven god Erevan Ilesere.
