Flame Strike

When the priest calls down a flame strike spell, a vertical column of fire roars downward in the exact location called for by the caster. Any creature within the area of effect of a flame strike must roll a saving throw vs. spell. Failure means the creature sustains 6d8 points of damage; otherwise, the damage is halved.
