(Alteration)

Range:  0
Components:  V, S, M
Duration:  Special
Casting Time:  1 turn
Area of Effect:  The caster
Saving Throw:  None

This spell allows a caster to store a burst of energy in a crystal worth 50 gp, the material component of this spell. This crystal is consumed only upon use of the spell. The caster must keep it with him until the spell is activated.
When activated, the caster can increase his movement rate by 6 for up to 1 round per level. This spell must be used upon starting movement or while moving. Premature destruction of the crystal results in an uncontrollable burst of speed. The caster must make a Dexterity check at -4 to avoid tripping. Those who trip are assumed to have moved a random distance (DM's discretion) and then fallen. They are then stunned for the rest of the round.
Note that any caster can only have one crystal at any given time.
This spell was created by Quiz, practitioner of the art of illusion. "Being a short-legged gnome, I found it quite necessary to find a method to overcome my reduced running speed. One who runs today fights another day!".
