Description

Upon pronouncing the dire phrases of this spell, you create a glowing red hand, faintly translucent and gently glowing, which manifests in your space. This hand may be of size Fine, Diminutive, or even Tiny, meaning a hand from normal human size up to two feet in length. This hand must only move in unblocked, unoccupied spaces, and cannot be targeted by any attack except Dispel Magic, Disjoins, and the like. If ordered to enter an Antimagic Field, the effect is destroyed harmlessly.

When cast, this spell may be used in all respects as Hand of the Magus (Spell), except that it may handle objects up to a weight equal to your medium load. When you point, the hand will zip to the place you wish it to go at the cost of a move action, to a maximum distance per Move of fifty feet, and of course, the effect must remain within the range of the spell.

This spell is not able to perform actions with dexterity or finesse, and thus it may not be used to make skill checks or combat maneuvers or affect creatures in any significant way, save the following.

As a Move action, the caster may command the Hand to explode in a fiery gout of roiling flame. This flame gushes forth from the space which the Hand occupies, even if that space is your own, and fills a fifteen foot cone, a 3x3 space. You are not harmed by these flames. The Hand explodes for 1d6 of fire damage per caster level, to a maximum of 10d6 of damage. Affected creatures are allowed to make a REFL saving throw for half damage against a DC defined above.

This spell lays an arcane or divine charge on its target(s), depending on the caster who is casting the spell. If the targets are something other than you or another creature (such as an object or area), the spell lays an arcane or divine charge on you, the caster. Divine casters lay a divine charge, and arcane casters lay an arcane charge. Targets which already have an arcane or divine charge present must choose which to keep if the new spell has the same charge type. Only one arcane charge and one divine charge can ever be present on a target at a time.
