 |  2  | The spell fails and magical energy explodes outward from the caster, causing 1d2 points of damage per level of the spell to all creatures and objects within a 6-metre radius. Characters who evade the effect's SPEED of 14 suffer half damage. Armour Factor can be subtracted from the damage caused to all except the caster.

 |  1  | The spell fails as arcane energies run unchecked through the caster's body, causing their body to blister, melt, freeze, or atrophy. The caster is subjected to a MAGICAL ATTACK of 20 plus the level of the spell. If they fail, they suffer 1d4 points of damage per level of the miscast spell and suffer a permanent injury (as per the Permanent Injuries Table, Dragon Warriors p208). Those who successfully defend against the effect endure only 1 point of damage per level of the miscast spell and do not suffer a permanent injury. | |  1  | The spell fails as arcane energies run unchecked through the caster's body, causing their body to blister, melt, freeze, or atrophy.
