I posted this in the other 3E forum, but got no replies. I was hoping to get some thoughts on it.
What do you all think of the following 1st-lvl spell:
Rainbow Cloud
Conjuration
Components: VSM
Casting Time: 1 std action
Range: Close
Effect: 15-ft cube (3x3x3 squares)
Duration: 1 rd/lvl
Save: Fort (neg)
SR: No
Creates a swirling mixture of multi-colored particles of different energies (fire, cold, acid, poison, electricity). Anyone caught in the cloud, not fully immune to all five energies and fails the save is sickened from the irritation of the energized particles. If the fail is by 5 or more, the victim is also affected by the swirling colors and is nauseated for that round until he steps out of the cloud.
I was hoping to get something like a pyrotechnics, stinking cloud, or cloud of bewilderment without all the collateral damage for a 20-ft spread or more since any of the above can do this. The spell doesn't really improve with level other than duration, but I am open to how it could without being unbalanced.
Thoughts? Is there any existing 1st-lvl spells that work just as well?
