Fire Breath

This spell allows the wu jen to breathe a cone of magical flame into the area of effect. All within the cone suffer 1d6 points of damage for every level of the wu jen unless they make a successful saving throw vs. breath weapon (which reduces the damage to half). The maximum possible damage is 15d6. Combustible objects (other than the clothing and gear of creatures in the cone) are ignited automatically. This may cause additional damage to those within the area. The DM must rule on these situations.

The material component for this spell is a piece of red-hot charcoal clenched in the teeth of the caster. This charcoal does no damage to the caster.

Notes: Common in oriental settings; very rare elsewhere.
