[QUOTE="Shade, post: 4999171, member: 287"] Sounds good! If we model it off shadow evocation, it is a quasi-real, illusory breath weapon. It would deal normal damage unless an affected creature succeeds on a Will save. Each disbelieving creature takes only one-fifth damage from the attack. If recognized as a shadow evocation, a damaging spell deals only one-fifth (20%) damage. Regardless of the result of the save to disbelieve, an affected creature is also allowed any save (or spell resistance) that the spell being simulated allows, but the save DC is set according to shadow evocation’s level (5th) rather than the spell’s normal level. Objects automatically succeed on their Will saves against the breath. Yes. And I'd prefer to keep them physically weaker than the demon drake. Good point. We should probably keep them all comparable, so I'm fine with cutting back the caster level a bit. [/QUOTE]
