Description: Masses of flame appear and randomly target and hit any hostile creature in the area of effect. If there are more creatures than balls of flame, only the closest targets will be damaged. If there are more balls of flame than creatures, the excess balls of flame disappear. Each ball of flame targets 1 creature per CL up to 30, plus one more creature per 4 CL above 40 and each ball of flame explodes for 1d6 points of Fire damage per caster level. Unless cast by a Bloodfire Mage it will only strike each target with one brand.

Notes

Cast by a Bloodfire Mage it does CLd6 Fire damage for the first brand, and is decreased by 3/4 for each additional strike on a target. Brands also drop Fire resistance by 2/- per 10 CL for a short period after impact.
This spell does not function underwater.
