Fireball


 * Words of Power: VAS FLAM
 * Reagents: SA BP
 * Circle: 2nd

While defensive magic is good and just in its own way, sometimes more direct action from the magic user is needed. This is, when this spell comes into play. Casting it, a flaming ball of fire is hurled at the caster's foes, setting them ablaze. Lesser foes are instantly killed while stronger ones retain serious injuries. Its low requirements make it a favourite attack spell of many mages.

Explosion is the even stronger version of this spell, while Iceball is the exact opposite of it. Both have their strengths but don't manage to be as economically as the fireball.

Trivia

 * In Ultima VII the spell is also called Fire Blast.
