I don't think it would instantly move to another target. I think if it could do that it would say in the spell's description... at least, it should say that if it is true.The only thing I can think of for the range that force-based spells can travel in a single round is the range of each spell. So, for spiritjaws, it would be 100 ft. + 10 feet/level. For Caerth, that would be a flying speed of 190 feet for the spiritjaws in one round. That seems very fast to me.In comparison, the unseen servant has a speed of 15 feet, but that doesn't seem fast enough for spiritjaws (a 3rd-level spell), but it is the only benchmark I can think of for a force effect that can move. Maybe it should be 15 feet/level for all spells that can move around in a fight, unless the spell says otherwise. The various Bigby hand spells don't say how far they can move either, just that redirecting them is a move action.Anyway, unless I can find an official ruling, I'm going to say it can move anywhere within the range of the spell, as it relates to Caerth's postion on the battle map, so it can easily get to Tarrak.And, your caster level check was successful, so roll to hit vs. Tarrak.</blockquote>
