Create Darkness - Drow

This spell instantly extinguishes all non-magical sources of illumination in the area of effect. Magical light sources, including light shed by magical weapons, may be extinguished as well: Each such device or item is allowed a saving throw vs. disintegration to resist the effect. Items that fail are not destroyed, merely extinguished.

Normal light sources extinguished by this spell cannot be relit for one hour. Magical light sources receive a saving throw at the beginning of each turn with a +4 bonus to the roll; they relight themselves when the saving throw is made or, at worst, one full hour after being extinguished.

Notes: Uncommon for drow and spellcasters of the Underdark; otherwise rare.
