Dust of Mind Dulling (Magic Dust)

This harmless-looking dust is the bane of spellcasters. One pinch of this dust can be flung up to 30 feet from the user and will scatter to fill a 5-foot-radius sphere.
All spellcasters within the area must make a saving throw versus spell or find their minds dulled and their wits slowed. All casting times less than 1 round are increased by 2 as the wizards hesitate, trying to remember the procedures. Spells which normally require 1 round to cast now require 1 full round plus a casting time of 5 on the following round; spells which normally have a casting time of 2 rounds or longer now require 50% longer than normal to cast. The dust persists in the area for 1 turn unless somehow removed (e.g., a gust of wind spell). Those affected by the dust are impaired in their spellcasting for 1d4+1 turns thereafter.
