Summon Fire Dragons

Despite its name, this spell does not summon any sort of creature. Instead, it enables the caster to create 1 to 10 fiery tongues of snaking flame, called fire dragons. These roaring, flickering presences are 6 feet in diameter and move according to the mental direction of the caster. They dissipate harmlessly if the caster is struck in combat or ceases to concentrate on them.

Fire dragons flicker along the ground at 180 feet per round, and can reach up to 30 feet vertically. They cannot attack airborne targets higher than 30 feet, or targets standing in water. They otherwise strike targets as directed by the caster, with a THAC0 of 9. Each flame tongue strikes once per round, inflicting 4d6 points of damage if it hits. Any creature struck is allowed a saving throw vs. spell for half damage.

The material component is a strip of paper soaked with saltpeter, coal oil, and sulphur that catches fire as the spell is cast.
