Lightning Bug (Wizard Spell)

Available to: Gemidan, Khelben, Laeral; Guild, Watch
Another of Gemidan's spell variants that merges Magic Missile with Shocking Grasp, this spell allows casters to generate a missile of electrical energy and cast it unerringly at a target. When it hits the target (or an electrical conductor that touches an opponent's body), the lightning bug discharges 1d6 points of damage, plus 1 point per level of the wizard (for example, an 11th-level mage would generate an electrical missile of 1d6 + 11 points of damage).
Notes: Known to the Watch-Wizards and Guild of Waterdeep and a few wizards (Gemidan, Khelben, Laeral) in the Forgotten Realms setting; common.
