Meteor Shower is a thaumaturgic attack spell.

Spell Description[edit]

Using Meteor Shower, the thaumaturge calls down a shower of flaming rocks, which will injure everything around the caster, be they friend or foe. It can be cast repeatedly, making the shower of flaming rocks much more devastating and deadly, since the caster himself is perfectly safe from it. However, because of its area effect, it is best not used in populated areas. Use of this spell is not considered aggression and the caster will not be censured for this action.

Lore[edit]

Rocks, summoned from unseen heights, cascade in a fiery torrent upon friends and foes alike — only the caster remains untouched.
By intoning these words the caster calls down from the sky great flaming boulders, as if the material was spewn from the lip of a volcano. The necessary components are the spellbook and the following reagents: Ash, Dirt, Serpent Scale, Brimstone, and Blackmoor.
