This spell was once a spell from the Oriental Adventures book, but it was adapted for the priest. It causes one of the four elements (not five like in the oriental version) to send off slivers of its element either causing damage or another effect depending on the element: earth sends off sharp slivers causing 1d8 hit points of damage; fire sends of sparks that cause 1d4 damage and cause non-magical items in the area to save versus normal fire, if their owner or carrier does not save; air and water send forth concussive waves of force that cause the affected characters to save versus paralysation or be hindered for one round per three levels of the caster (hindered equals losing initiative for physical actions during those rounds). It does not significantly affect the object from which it gains the slivers of element it shoots off.
