Re: [Sorcery] Michael's daily sorcerous spells thread
Lethal Lightning
Keywords: Missile, Obvious.
Full Cost: 26.5 points/level*.
Casting Roll: None. Use Innate Attack (Beam) to hit.
Range: 100 yards.
Duration: Instantaneous.
Creates a lightning bolt that inflicts 1d burning surge damage on a single target. Metallic armor counts as DR 1 against this attack, but nonmetallic armor protects normally.
If any damage penetrates DR, the victim must make an HT roll, at -1 per 2 points of penetrating damage, or be rendered unconsciousness for (20-HT) minutes followed by -2 to DX for another (20-HT) minutes. If the victim critically fails the HT roll, or fails by 5 or more, the victim suffers a heart attack instead.
This is also a Weather spell.
Statistics: Burning Attack 1d (Nuisance Effect, Behaves erratically around conductors, -5%; Sorcery, -15%; Surge, Arcing, +100%; Side Effect, Disadvantage, DX -2, Secondary Heart Attack, and Unconsciousness, +350%) [26.5/level]. Notes: This spell originally appeared in GURPS Magic: Death Spells, p. 22.
* Calculate the total cost and then round up.
