[QUOTE="aguynamedbry, post: 2224057, member: 26946"] Gust of Wind It is a well known fact that the spell Gust of Wind, albeit a useful party trick, is almost always a waste of a spell slot. Only against the smallest of enemies does it have any use what-so-ever and even then the tried and true magic missile spell reins supreme. What’s truly fascinating is how the spell came into being at all. The much maligned wizard Bleco Femberblotz was at home taking a nap when his wife woke him up complaining about the smell from the displacer beast’s kitty litter container. Although any other wizard with an ounce of intelligence would deploy an unseen servant, Mr. Femberblotz went to work on creating a spell to try to control the smell – the result, the unimpressive and wholly inappropriate Gust of Wind which ended up wafting the scent of the displacer beast’s droppings to the surrounding area where they were quickly scented by a hungry troll who destroyed the home of Mr. Femberblotz, killing him, his wife and their displacer beast named Fluffy. Thus leading to the creation of the phrase “Trolls love displacer beasts named Fluffy”. [/QUOTE]
