Darklight's Concentrated Fire
(Alteration, Metamagic)

Range:  20 feet
Components:  S
Duration:  Special
Casting Time:  1 (but see below)
Area of Effect:  One creature
Saving Throw:  Special

This Metamagic spell only adds 1 to the previous spell's casting time, with the somatic component consisting of the caster pointing directly at the intended target. This spell brings the full force of an area effect spell to bear upon a single target. Any area effect spell of up to fourth level can be used with this magic. Offensive spells require a saving throw versus breath weapon by the target, and, if successful, the spell does 2 HP of extra damage per die with all ones rerolled. If they fail this saving throw, they take the maximum damage for the spell (as cast at the level of the caster). If the spell is not a mere damage spell, but inflicts some other effect, then the target's saving throw versus the effect is lowered by 1 for each equivalent extra target that the spell would normally affect. In no event can this spell be used with a spell that normally affects only a single target, or with an area affect spell over fourth level.
