Balefire (Evocation)
Level: Clr4 (Metran)
Components: V, S, DF
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft/level)
Area: 20 ft. diameter sphere
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Dexterity partial
Spell Resistance: Yes
The caster unleashes a blast of hellish fire to consume his foes. Balefire does a d6 per caster level in damage (maximum 15d6), half of this damage is fire and half is unholy, and affects each non-evil creature within its confines as per the doom spell for a d4 rounds. A successful dexterity save will halve damage and reduce the doom effect to one round. Since Metranics and their allies are always evil and usually resistant (or immune) to fire, the casting of this spell at ground zero is done with unholy glee.
