This spell summons the stinging sand of Minethys, the third layer of Carceri. This spell functions similarly as the Flame Thrower of Phlegethos regarding movement of the caster and rotation of the stream. Anything caught in the viscious grit must save vs. spell of suffer 1d10 damage plus 1d10 per wizard level, plus the armor class of the victim, per damage die. For instance: a 12th level caster uses this spell against an opponent with an AC of 3. The opponent suffers an additional three points of damage per die, to a maximum of 156 damage. Creatures with AC's less than zero subtract from the total damage. The sand scours the skin off its victims. Armor may be damaged at DM's option. The wizard may keep the stream going for as many rounds equal to her level minus one. The Flame Thrower rules apply here as well regarding the percentage of encounter chances.
