This spell can have one of two effects. First, it can be used as a pounding shower of sand, which rains down for one round in a 60 foot diameter circle inflicting 1d12 HP of buffeting damage plus 1d12 HP of choking damage to all creatures within the area of effect. Certain creatures would be immune to such effects, it is up to the DM's discretion (i.e. golems) Also, undead do not need to breathe. The second use of the spell can be used as a blinding rain of sand in a 60 foot diameter circle which lasts for one round per level of the caster slowing movement to 50% and reducing visibility to zero within the area of effect. The sheet can also extinguish open flames such as torches, candles, camp fires, etc...
The material component for the spell is a handful of fine sand.
