Candle of Vapors (Magic Candle)

This candle burns normally for one round, then goes out. During the following round, it produces clouds of smoke or vapor that rapidly expand to blanket a 50' diameter area. Except where stated, all characters and creatures within the area of effect are affected, including those who enter the cloud later. A successful save vs. poison produces no effect: failure to save causes the noted effect to occur. The cloud dissipates one turn after the candle is extinguished: it must be doused with water to cease producing vapors. There are five varieties:
Roll 	Candle Type
01-02	Insanity gas: Victims act as though they were under the permanent effects of confusion, as the priest spell. A heal, restoration, limited wish, alter reality, or wish spell is required to cure this condition.
03-04	Poison: Creates a cloud of poison gas against which all characters must save or die (taking 20 hp damage it' the save is made).
05-06	Sleep: Affects all characters and creatures of all levels within its 25' radius, except the individual who lit the candle. Sleep lasts while the victims remain near the fumes, plus 1d10 rounds after their removal.
07-08	Smoke: A dense cloud of smoke forms, totally obscuring vision beyond 2'. If the candle is lit within an enclosed space smaller than half the size of the cloud's 50' diameter, spherical area of effect, all characters including the one who lit the candle, must save vs. poison or suffocate in 2d4+1 rounds.
09-10	Sweet smell: Burns off all evil vapors within its area of effect (including all poisonous, superheated, corrosive, or otherwise harmful gases), leaving the air pure and sweet smelling.
These candles are made of sandalwood and either jimpson weed (insanity), poppy (sleep), puffball spores (smoke), belladonna (poison), ichor from a gibbering mouther (insanity), sprite sleep ointment (sleep), pure charcoal powder (smoke), or giant serpent poison (poison). The beneficial sweet smell candle requires a mixture of mistletoe, rosemary, sow thistle, and white heather.
