Description:	An infernal cataclysm spun into magic, this spell wrings the fires of the World Dragon from its very throat! From the bowels of Elanthia's core, Ushnish's ire will spew forth -- but it will be up to your skill to converge its flows upon enemies. Beware, for calling out His name in invocation is seldom without peril. It is well perilous -- and foolish -- to willingly evoke Ushnish's boundless anger in such a manner and hope to be spared. This spell used to be taught at the Temple of Serpents, before the volcano put an end to it. The few priests who possessed its knowledge spoke of an oracular ritual involving blood.
Effect:	Unknown
Example Messaging:	Standing: <Caster> strikes his heel against the ground. Sitting or kneeling: <Caster> slams his fist against the ground. Backfire: The ground shudders in response. Fiery <alignment color> magma bubbles up from the dirt underfoot! Streams of fiery <alignment color> magma boil up from the dirt underfoot! Geysers of fiery <alignment color> magma erupt from the dirt underfoot! The ethereal lava barely splashes <target>'s left leg, producing a minor burn. <Target>'s right leg hisses and smokes as it is liberally spattered by a bubbling stream of black lava. Blackened embers and flakes of ash swirl away from <target>'s right leg as it is incinerated by the <alignment color> lava, leaving behind naught but a smoking stump. Boiling tongues of magma race wrathfully in another path. Veins of liquid fire spill across the mud with serpentine grace. An arm of the fire river lashes along the mud with a sulfurous hiss. Tendrils of magma erupt from the main artery of lava and bleed across the mud. Another stream of lava erupts from the fountain of magma flowing up from the mud. Intense waves of heat rise from the lava as it splits. The river of lava forks into smaller rivulets, curling across the dirt toward its next victim. The trickles of <alignment color> magma cool, forming ashy cinders which quickly disperse.
Devices/Tattoos:	No devices or tattoos documented.

Notes

• A highly quirky and difficult TM spell (the most difficult Cleric spell to cast) which can strike multiple targets including passersby, friends and the caster.
• Quest to learn the spell has a PM requirement of about 250 ranks.
  • Since it's a quest spell it can't be unlearned in Throne City.
• Protection from Evil grants immunity to those not engaged with the caster. Casting AT a target will get through their PFE.
  • Gives the caster a rash if they don't have PFE up.
• Death From Above (Below) spell that ignores shield.
  • If the target is standing the spell only damages the target's legs.
• Can hit more undead with slightly less mana.
• Does fire damage.
• Alignment-based magma:

Neutral: Silver-grey magma

Light: Blue-white magma

Dark: Black magma

Unaligned: White magma
