DESCRIPTION
You can attempt to cremate a living creature. When you cast this spell, your hand is coated in seething corpseflame. You must succeed on a melee touch attack to touch the target. The target takes 12d6 points of necrotic damage + 1 point per caster level. If the target's Fortitude saving throw succeeds, it instead takes 3d6 points of necrotic damage + 1 point per caster level. The subject might die from damage even if it succeeds on its saving throw. If the target's Fortitude saving throw fails by 5 or more, the target is set on fire with corpseflame.
