Energy lance is a slow spell that works only at very short distances. If the wizard can get it off, though, its results are rewarding. This spell causes a gem-tipped wand to spew out a directional beam of intense positive energy at a single object or creature. Damage done is 1d6 points per level of the wizard over sixth (up to a maximum of 14d6), with no saving throw allowed. Additionally, if made the target of the spell, objects made of non-magical wood, stone, or metal will have a 6 inch hole drilled through them up to the maximum range of the spell (or out the back of the object). Magical objects will suffer the same fate unless they successfully save versus disintegration at +1.
The material components of this spell are a 6 to 8 inch platinum wand of at least 1000 gp value, with a clear diamond or any opal worth 100 gp set on the end, as well as a loose 100 gp value gem, which is consumed during the casting. There is a 10% chance that the gem on the tip of the wand will shatter as well, reduced to 5% for a 1000 gp gem and to a minimum of 1% for a 10,000 gp value gem.
