Tempest

(See also: Tempest (Creature))

This spell creates a monstrous storm over the area of effect. In one round, ominous Cerulean clouds roll into the area and unleash the full fury of the Cerulean storm. hail, lightning, hurricane winds, slashing rain, acidic vapors, and furious thunder rock the area. Any living thing in the area is completely obliterated by this dreadful tempest unless it makes a successful saving throw versus spell. Those creatures who are successful have escaped the area and taken no damage.

When the wizard calls the storm, he immediately takes 3d8 damage from the exertion of casting such a powerful spell. Even utilizing the energy stored within a lens or sphere makes no difference.

Cerulean wizards who are foolish enough to brave the storm's fury in an attempt to draw the storm's energy into a blue glass lens get what they deserve. They are destroyed with no saving throw allowed. The material components for this spell are a waterskin full of water, a tiny replica of a lightning bolt carved of wood or bone, and a pinch of powdered silver. All are expended in the casting.
