This spell calls down a bolt of reddish-purple lightning which strikes a single creature within range. The bolt inflicts 1d6 points of damage per level of the wizard. Cold or water-based creatures suffer an additional 1 points of damage per die, while creatures resistant to heat or electricity suffer half normal damage (1/4 with a successful saving throw). All non-magical metal worn by the target must save versus lightning (at +2 if the saving throw was made, but at -2 if the saving throw was failed) or be fused to any nearby metal (sword fused to gauntlet, pieces of armour fused together, preventing movement). The material component of this spell is a short glass rod, a bit of fur, and a bit of iron or lodestone.
