Description:	The Strange Arrow forms a cloud of crackling yellow energy which can be directed at a foe. The only close guess as to why it was named this way is that the cloud shoots out at its target like an arrow fired from an especially confused archer. Despite its strange projectile arc, the spell suffers no loss of accuracy, and those impacted by it suffer an odd combination of up to dozens of puncture wounds exacerbated with electrical shock. It is hard to accurately describe how the victim is wounded, as the magic takes a whimsical delight in surprising both caster and victim.
Effect:	Puncture damage, Electrical damage, single target.
Example Messaging:	You gesture at a musk hog. A crackling yellow haze forms up around your body, quickly pooling up into a small, cohesive cloud in front of you. It quickly lurches forward in an erratic bolt at a musk hog! The cloud suddenly splits into dozens of tiny glowing yellow arrows, careening drunkenly in all directions before lancing out at its back, gashing deep holes from which burns visibly spread. The musk hog falls to the ground and lies still. Roundtime: 1 sec.
