It's been dubbed the "scorching ray", and early indications that this blast of fire not only competes with damage levels consistant with modern-day fireballs, and not only can be cast with less training... but if rumors are to be believed, there is no way to dodge the effect!"Scariest thing I ever seen," states one Padfoot Skiprock, a halfling rogue who mysteriously is a lot less adept at finding north, but that is a nother story, "I was walking around this hedge maze I used to frequent, and for some reason couldn't find my way out for the first time in years. Next thing I know, this wizard fella, couldn't have been any older than 19, walks by me and shoots this fire ray out of his hand. Completely destroyed the wall of the maze. Which is good, cause it got me the heck out of there."The mage guild in Waterdeep couldn't be contacted for comment, but a representative from the Cormyr Battle Mages confirmed that this spell does in fact exist, and that it is being considered the newest weapon in the battle with the Red Wizards of Thay.</blockquote>
