Thunderball (Wizard Spell)

The thunderball spell is an explosive burst of lightning accompanied by a clap of thunder. This spell causes 1d6+1 points of damage to all creatures within its area of effect (no saving throw) and all within its area of effect must roll successful saving throws vs. spell or be deafened for 1d4 rounds. In addition, the caster can elect to target this spell against a single creature. This creature is automatically deafened, and it must roll a successful saving throw vs. spell or suffer double damage.
The material component for this spell is an amber rod.
Notes: Uncommon spell. As a Forgotten Realms Old Empire spell, initial exposure re­quires a mentor or a read Southern magic spell.
