Arc of Lightning
4th-level Conjuration (Creation) formula [Air, Electricity]
Minimum Cost: 4 A, 2 P
Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Area: A line between two creatures
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Reflex half
Spell Resistance: No
Augmentation: Yes
You conjure the energy from the Quasielemental Plane of Lightning to create conductivity between two creatures, and a bolt of electricity arcs between them.
This bolt deals 6d6 points of electricity damage to both creatures and to anything in the line between them.
Both creatures must be in range, and you must be able to target them (as if this spell had them as its targets).
Draw the line from any corner in one creature's space to any corner in the other's space.
While this formula is in many ways similar to the spell of the same name (described in Complete Arcane), they don't counter one another.
Augmentation: For each 1 W and 1 P spent after the minimum cost, the damage of this formula increases by 2d6 and its effective level increases by 1 (to a maximum of 9th level) for the purpose of effects that rely on it, such as its save DC.
Channel the Dragon
7th-level Transmutation formula [See text]
Minimum Cost: See text
Casting time: 1 round
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 1 minute
Augmentation: No
You feel the mighty force of elemental wyrms flood your spirit and reinforce your body. Your flesh hardens, and your eyes gleam.
Few creatures represent both the mystic and the elemental more than dragons. You tap into the elemental might of these magnificent creatures to gain a breath weapon and a defensive ability based on the element selected. Refer to the table below for the breath weapon and defensive ability granted by this formula, as well as for its cost and descriptor.
{table=head]
Element (Dragon)|
Breath Weapon|
Defensive Ability|
Cost|
Descriptor
Air (Green)|7d6 acid (Reflex half)|Resistance to acid 30|7 A|Air
Earth (Copper)|
Slow, 1d6 rounds (Will negates)|Damage reduction 5/adamantine|7 E|Earth
Fire (Gold/Red)|7d6 fire (Reflex half)|Resistance to fire 30|7 F|Fire
Water (Silver/White)|7d6 cold (Reflex half)|Resistance to cold 30|7 W|Water[/table]
The breath weapon takes the form of a 15-foot cone-shaped burst. Using the breath weapon requires a standard action, and each time you breathe, you must wait 1d4 rounds before breathing again. Spell resistance does not apply against the breath weapon's effect.
This formula counters and dispel the spell of the same name (described in Dragon Magic).
Control Water
4th-level Transmutation formula [Water]
Minimum Cost: 4 W
Range: Long (400 ft. + 40 ft./level)
Area: Water in a volume of 10 ft./level by 10 ft./level by 2 ft./level (S)
Duration: 5 minutes (D); see text
Saving Throw: None; see text for the
Control Water spell
Spell Resistance: No
Augmentation: Yes
This formula functions like the spell of the same name, but it has another application; when the
Raise Water version is cast on water elementals and other water-based creatures, this formula acts as an
Haste spell (Will negates (harmless)) for 5 rounds. The formula has no effect on other creatures.
This formula counters and dispel the eponymous spell and vice-versa.
Augmentation: For each water point spent after the minimum cost, the duration of the formula increases by 5 minutes (or 5 rounds for the
Haste effect) and its effective level increases by 1 for the purpose of effects that rely on it (to a maximum of 9th level).
Control Weather
7th-level Transmutation formula [Air]
Minimum Cost: 7 A
Casting Time: 10 minutes; see text for the
Control Weather spell (normal) or 1 standard action (augmented)
Range: 2 miles (normal) or Long (400 ft. + 40 ft./level) (augmented)
Area/Effect: 2-mile-radius circle, centered on you; see text for the
Control Weather spell (normal) or Cyclone 10 ft. wide at base, 30 ft. wide at top, and 30 ft. tall (augmented)
Duration: 4d12 hours; see text for the
Control Weather spell (normal) or 1 round/2 levels (maximum 1 minute) (D) (augmented)
Saving Throw: None (normal) or reflex negates; see text for the
Whirlwind spell (augmented)
Spell Resistance: No (normal) or Yes (augmented)
Augmentation: Yes
This formula functions like the spell of the same name.
It also counters and dispel the spell it duplicates and vice-versa.
Augmentation: By spending an additional 1 A, this formula functions like the
Whirlwind spell instead and its effective level increases by 1 for the purpose of effects that rely on it, such as its save DC.
Cure Disease
3rd-level Conjuration (Healing) formula [Water]
Minimum Cost: 3 W, 1 N, 1 P
Range: Touch
Target: Creature touched
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Fortitude negates (harmless)
Spell Resistance: Yes (harmless)
Augmentation: Yes
You conjure the combined essence of the Quasielemental Plane of Salt and of the Quasielemental Plane of Steam to boost the immune system of the target. The target may make an immediate Fortitude save with a +2 bonus against all diseases, parasites and similar he is currently suffering from (use the original disease's DC). He is cured of any disease for which he succeeds on his save. Certain special diseases may not be countered by this formula or may be countered only by a caster of a certain level or higher (treat this formula as a
Remove Disease spell for this purpose).
Once the subject has been affected by this formula, he cannot benefit from it again for the next 24 hours, even if the attempt to cure him failed or if he contracts a new disease during this time period.
Note: Since the formula's duration is instantaneous, it does not prevent reinfection after a new exposure to the same disease at a later date.
Detachment of the Primitive World
7th-level Transmutation formula [Earth]
Minimum Cost: 7 E, 5 N
Range: Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level)
Effect: Ray
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Fortitude Partial (object)
Spell Resistance: Yes
Augmentation: Yes
You channel the combined energy from the Elemental Plane of Earth and the Negative Energy Plane in order to turn your target to dust. You must make a successful ranged touch attack to hit. Any creature struck by the ray takes 1d6 points of damage per caster level (to a maximum of 20d6). Any creature reduced to 0 or fewer hit points by this formula is entirely disintegrated, leaving behind only a trace of fine dust. A disintegrated creatures equipment is unaffected.
When used against an object, the ray simply disintegrates as much as one 10-foot cube of nonliving matter. Thus, the spell disintegrates only part of any very large object or structure targeted. The ray affects even objects constructed entirely of force, such as a
Wall of Force, but not magical effects such as a
Globe of invulnerability or an
Antimagic Field.
A creature or object that makes a successful Fortitude save is partially affected, taking only 5d6 points of damage. If this damage reduces the creature or object to 0 or fewer hit points, it is entirely disintegrated.
Only the first creature or object struck can be affected; that is, the ray affects only one target per casting.
This formula counts as a
Disintegrate spell for the purpose of destroying any spell or effect specifically affected by a
Disintegrate spell. However, the spell and formula don't counter one another.
Augmentation: By spending an additional 2 E and 2 N, this formula instead affects everyone in a 10-foot cube (you don't need an attack roll to hit) and deals double damage (or 5d6 damage on a successful save). In addition, its effective level increases by 2 for the purpose of effects that rely on it, such as its save DC.
Dispel Element
5th-level Abjuration formula [See text]
Minimum Cost: See text
Range: Touch
Target or Targets: You and a touched evil creature from another plane; or you and an enchantment or evil spell on a touched creature or object (See text for
Dispel Evil)
Duration: 1 minute or until discharged
Saving Throw: See text for
Dispel Evil
Spell Resistance: See text for
Dispel Evil
Augmentation: No
This formula functions like the
Dispel Evil spell, except that there are many applications to it, depending of which spells and creatures you wish to be protected against. You are surrounded by energy, the color of which depends of the application use. Each application has a different cost and descriptor.
{table=head]
Subtype of the Opponent/Descriptor of the Spell*|
Color of the Protective Energy|
Cost|
Descriptor
Air|Brown|5 E|Earth
Cold|Blue-white|5 F|Fire
Earth|Green|5 A|Air
Fire|Red|5 W|Cold, Water
Water|Dark blue|5 F|Fire[/table]
* Choose whichever you wish to be protected against.
The Cold and Fire applications of this formula counter and dispel the
Dispel Cold spell (Frostburn), and vice-versa.
Earth Reaver
5th-level Transmutation formula [Earth, Fire]
Minimum Cost: 5 E, 5 F
Range: Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level)
Area: 20-ft.-radius spread
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Reflex Partial
Spell Resistance: Yes
Augmentation: Yes
You channel magical energy from the Paraelemental Plane of Magma to make the earth erupt in a shower of rock, dirt, and fire.
Creatures and objects within the area take 4d6 points of bludgeoning damage from the impact of the rock shards, as well as 3d6 points of fire damage; no saving throw applies to the damage. Creatures in the area must also succeed on a Reflex saving throw or be knocked prone.
While this formula is in many ways similar to the spell of the same name (described in Complete Mage), they don't counter one another.
Augmentation: For each 1 E and 1 F spent after the minimum cost, the formula deals an additional 1d6 points of bludgeoning damage and 1d6 points of fire damage to every creature in the area, and its effective level increases by 1 for the purpose of effects that rely on it (to a maximum of 9th level).
Earth's Vigor
4th-level Transmutation formula [Earth]
Minimum Cost: 4 E
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 1 minute or until discharged (normal) or 1 minute (D) (augmented)
Augmentation: Yes
You conjure the energy from the Elemental Plane of Earth and redirect it into your own metabolism, bestowing you with their impressive vigor. You gain damage reduction 10/adamantine (You ignore the first 10 points of damage each time you take damage from a weapon, though an adamantine weapon bypasses the reduction) Once the spell has prevented a total of 100 points of damage, it is discharged.
Augmentation: By spending an additional 4 E, this formula instead functions like the
Iron Body spell, and its effective level increases by 4 for the purpose of effects that rely on it.
Elemental Mist
1st-level Conjuration (Creation) formula [See text]
Minimum Cost: See text
Range: 20 ft.
Effect: Cloud spreads in 20-ft. radius from you, 20 ft. high
Duration: 1 minute
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: No
Augmentation: Yes
This formula has two different applications; it can either create a dust cloud or a fog cloud. Both applications of this formula functions like the
Obscuring Mist spell, but have a different cost and provide the formula with a different descriptor.
{table=head]
Type of cloud|
Cost|
Descriptor
Dust cloud|1 A, 1 E|Air, Earth
Fog cloud|1 F, 1 W|Fire, Water[/table]
Unlike the spell it duplicates, this formula can be used just as well in and out of water.
This formula counters and dispel the spell it duplicates, and vice-versa.
Augmentation: By spending one additional planar point of each required type, the formula instead has a medium range (100 ft. + 10 ft. Level) and the effect originates from any place within the formula's range (not necessarily from you). In addition, its effective level increases by 1 for the purpose of effects that rely on it. By spending two additional planar points of each required type on top of the previous augmentation, the effect duplicates the
Solid Fog spell (instead of the
Obscuring Mist spell) and the effective level of the formula increases by an additional 2 for the purpose of effects that rely on it. By spending an additional 2 E and 2 W on top of the previous two augmentations, the effect duplicates the
Acid Fog spell instead, though the effective level of the formula doesn't increase further.
Elemental Needles
2nd-level Evocation formula [See text]
Minimum Cost: 2 planar points; see text
Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Effect: 10 needles
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Reflex half; see text
Spell Resistance: Yes
Augmentation: Yes
You channel energy from the elemental planes in order to create ten needles out of a given element, which are then magically thrown in direction of one or more targets within range. Choose a type of planar points amongst Air, Earth, Fire and Water; you spend 2 planar points of the selected type. Each needle deals 1 point of damage, the type of which depends of the type of planar points used (see the table below).
{table=head]
Planar points used|
Damage Type
Air|Piercing*
Earth|Acid
Fire|Fire
Water|Cold[/table]
* Piercing damage from this formula is subject to damage reduction, but it counts as magic for the purpose of overcoming it.
If a target succeeds on his Reflex save, only half of the needles that were targetting him (rounded down) hit him. Even if they hit, the target's damage reduction or resistance (if any) apply individually to each needle.
You cannot mix more than one type of planar points with this formula.
This formula has the descriptor relative to the type of planar points used (Air, Earth, Fire or Water).
Augmentation: For each planar point of the selected type spent after the minimum cost, you create 10 more needles and the effective level of this formula increases by 1 (to a maximum of 9th level) for the purpose of effects that rely on it, such as its save DC.
Elemental Ray
1st-level Evocation formula [See text]
Minimum Cost: 1 planar point; see text
Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Effect: Ray
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: Yes
Augmentation: Yes
A ray of energy projects from your pointing finger. You must succeed on a ranged touch attack with the ray to deal damage to a target. Choose a type of planar points amongst Air, Earth, Fire and Water; you spend 1 planar point of the selected type. The ray deals 1d6 points of damage, the type of which depends of the type of planar points used (see the table below).
{table=head]
Planar points used|
Damage Type
Air|Bludgeoning*
Earth|Acid
Fire|Fire
Water|Cold[/table]
* Bludgeoning damage from this formula is subject to damage reduction, but it counts as magic for the purpose of overcoming it. If you want, you may deal nonlethal damage instead, though damage reduction still apply.
You cannot mix more than one type of planar points with this formula.
This formula has the descriptor relative to the type of planar points used (Air, Earth, Fire or Water).
Augmentation: For each planar point of the selected type spent after the first, the damage increases by 2d6 and the effective level of this formula increases by 1 (to a maximum of 9th level) for the purpose of effects that rely on it, such as its ability to penetrate a
Globe of Invulnerability.
Elemental Weapon
2nd-level Evocation formula [See text]
Minimum Cost: See text
Range: Touch
Effect: Weaponlike beam
Duration: 1 minute (D)
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: Yes
Augmentation: Yes
This formula has four different applications, one for each element. Each application creates a weapon out of a different elemental energy. The base damage of the weapon is dictated by the spell. Each application has its own cost and provides the formula with a different descriptor.
{table=head]
Element|
Weapon created|
Base damage|
Cost|
Descriptor
Air|Shortspear|1d8 +1/2 caster level (maximum +10)|1 A|Air
Earth|Great club|1d10 +1/2 caster level (maximum +10)|1 E|Earth
Fire|Scimitar|1d8 +1/2 caster level (maximum +10) fire damage*|1 F|Fire
Water|Quarterstaff|1d8 +1/2 caster level (maximum +10)|1 W|Water[/table]
* Since the fire scimitar is immaterial, your Strength modifier does not apply to the damage. A fire scimitar can ignite combustible materials such as parchment, straw, dry sticks, and cloth, but does not function underwater.
The weapon is 6-foot-long and is formed of the element used. It springs forth from your hands and you can use it with proficiency. Unless the weapon is a fire scimitar, you apply your Strength modifier to the damage roll of the weapon.
You wield the weapon as if it was a weapon of the type it duplicates. For example, you wield a water weapon as if it was a quarterstaff.
Attacks with the elemental weapon are regular melee attacks.
The elemental weapon is subject to damage reduction (unless it is a fire scimitar), but it is considered a magic weapon for the purpose of overcoming it.
Augmentation: For each planar point of the same type spent after the minimum cost, the duration of this formula increases by 1 minute and its effective level increase by 1 (to a maximum of 9th level) for the purpose of effects that rely on it. The elemental weapon gains an enhancement bonus to attack rolls equal to half the amount of planar points spent on augmentation (rounded down).

You use energy from the Elemental Plane of Fire to cause your foes to erupt in afoul, acrid-smelling burst of yellow fire.
The subject ignites in a burst of sulfuric fire that deals 8d6 points of fire damage and causes the subject to be sickened for 5 rounds.
A successful Fortitude save halves the damage and negates the sickening.
This formula counters and dispel the spell of the same name (described in Complete Mage), but the spell may only do the same if the formula is not augmented beyond its minimum cost.
Augmentation: For each fire point spent on augmentation, this formula deals an additional 2d6 points of fire damage and its effective level increases by 1 (to a maximum of 9th level) for the purpose of effects that rely on it, such as its save DC.

Augmentation: Yes
This formula causes a globe of searing fire to explode silently from a point you select. All creatures in the globe take 6d6 points of fire damage.
Augmentation: By spending an additional 6 P, this formula acquires the Light descriptor and functions like the
Sunburst spell (this replaces the normal effect of the formula), though it still has the Fire descriptor. If augmented in this way, this formula counters and dispel the
Sunburst spell.
Light spells counter and dispel darkness spells of an equal or lower level.
Fire Shield
4th-level Evocation formula [Cold or Fire; see text]
Minimum Cost: 4 F or 4 W; see text
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 1 round/2 levels (maximum 1 minute) (D)
Augmentation: Yes
This formula functions like the spell of the same name, and has therefore two version: the Warm Shield, which has a minimum cost of 4 F and provides the formula with the Fire descriptor, and the Chill Shield, which has a minimum cost of 4 W and provides the formula with the Cold descriptor.
It also counters and dispel the spell it duplicates, but the spell may only counter or dispel the formula if it is not augmented beyond its minimum cost.
Augmentation: For each additional planar planar point of the same type spent on augmentation, the damage inflicted by this formula increases by 1d6 and its effective level increases by 1 (to a maximum of 9th level) for the purpose of effects that rely on it.
Flaying Burst
5th-level Evocation formula [Air, Earth]
Minimum Cost: 5 A, 5 E

Harnessing the energy from the Elemental Plane of Air, you create a severe blast of air that originates from you. This formula functions like the spell of the same name.
It also counters and dispel the spell(s) it duplicates and vice-versa.
Augmentation: By spending an additional 1 A, the duration becomes 1 round/level (maximum 2 minutes) and this formula functions like
Wind Wall instead. In addition, its effective level increases by 1 for the purpose of effects that rely on it, such as its save DC. By spending an additional 2 A on top of the previous augmentation, the formula's effective level increases by an additional 2 and it simultaneously functions like
Gust of Wind and
Wind Wall.
Ice Storm
4th-level Evocation formula [Air, Cold, Water]
Minimum Cost: 4 A, 4 W
Range: Long (400 ft. + 40 ft./level)
Area: Cylinder (20-ft. radius, 40 ft. high)
Duration: 1 full round
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: Yes
Augmentation: Yes
You channel magical energy from the Paraelemental Plane of Ice to create great magical hailstones that pounds down for 1 full round, dealing 3d6 points of bludgeoning damage and 2d6 points of cold damage to every creature in the area. A -4 penalty applies to each Listen check made within the formulas effect, and all land movement within its area is at half speed. At the end of the duration, the hail disappears, leaving no aftereffects (other than the damage dealt).
While this formula is in many ways similar to the spell of the same name, they don't counter one another.
Augmentation: For each 1 A and 1 W spent after the minimum cost, the formula deals an additional 1d6 points of bludgeoning damage and 1d6 points of cold damage to every creature in the area, and its effective level increases by 1 for the purpose of effects that rely on it (to a maximum of 9th level).
Light and Darkness
3rd-level Evocation formula [See text]
Minimum Cost: See text
Range: Touch
Target: Object touched
Duration: 1 minute (D)
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: No
Augmentation: Yes
This formula has two different applications : one for light and one for darkness. Each one duplicates the effect of a specific spell on the object touched. They also have a different cost and provide the formula with a different descriptor.
{table=head]
Application|
Duplicated Spell|
Cost|
Descriptor
Darkness|
Deeper Darkness|1 N|Darkness
Light|
Daylight|1 P|Light[/table]
Light spells counter and dispel darkness spells of an equal or lower level, and darkness spells counter or dispel light spells of an equal or lower level. This formula also counters the spell it duplicates and vice-versa.
Augmentation: By spending four additional planar points of the same type as the base cost, this spell deals 1 points of damage per round to every creature in the area. The darkness application inflicts negative energy damage, harmful to living beings but beneficial to undead creatures. The light application inflicts positive energy damage, which heals living creatures and is detrimental to undead. In both cases, the effective level of the formula increases by 4 for the purpose of effects that rely on it.
Move Earth
6th-level Transmutation formula [Earth]
Minimum Cost: 6 E
Casting Time: See text for the
Move Earth spell (normal) or 1 standard action (augmented)
Range: Long (400 ft. + 40 ft./level)

Earthquake spell instead and its effective level increases by 2 for the purpose of effects that rely on it, such as its save DC.
Planar Adaptation
1st-level Transmutation formula [See text]
Minimum Cost: 1 planar point; see text
Range: Touch
Target: Creature touched
Duration: 1 minute (D)
Augmentation: Yes
This formula has six different applications, one for each inner plane. Each application makes it easier for the target to live in a given inner plane and similar planes. They also have a different cost and provide the formula with a different descriptor.
{table=head]
Inner Plane|
Effect|
Cost|
Descriptor
Elemental Plane of Air|When in a plane with the subjective directional gravity trait, the target automatically succeeds on his Wisdom check to set a new direction of gravity.|1 A|Air
Elemental Plane of Earth|If the target is inside a plane with the earth-dominant elemental trait, he gains a burrow speed equal to his base land speed, and he leave an useable tunnel behind him when he burrows. If the target already has a faster burrow speed or is not inside a plane with the earth-dominant elemental trait, this application has no effect.|1 E|Earth
Elemental Plane of Fire|The target and his equipment don't take fire damage as a result of being in a plane with the fire-dominant elemental trait. He does not gain fire resistance, however.|1 W|Fire
Elemental Plane of Water|If the target is inside a plane with the water-dominant elemental trait, he can breathe underwater. He can't do so if he is merely underwater, but not in a water-dominant plane. If the target is made of fire, he doesn't take damage as a result of being in a plane with the water-dominant elemental trait.|1 F|Water
Negative Energy Plane|If the target is living, he doesn't take damage as a result of being in a plane with the minor negative-dominant energy trait, and treats that major negative-dominant energy trait as the minor negative-dominant energy trait instead.|1 P|
Positive Energy Plane|The target can never gain more temporary hit points than his normal hit point total as a result of being in a plane with the major positive-dominant energy trait. Also, he is not blinded in such circumstances. If the target is harmed by positive energy, he doesn't take damage as a result of being in a plane with the minor or major positive-dominant energy trait (if the GM houseruled it as such).|1 N|[/table]
Most applications of this formula function by creating a shield out of an element or energy to protect against the opposite element. In this case, they are not affected by the impended magic trait of the plane they are intended to be used in, but are nonetheless affected by the impended magic trait of the opposite plane. The applications associated with the Elemental Plane of Air and the Elemental Plane of Earth are exceptions, as the element is channelled in a way that let you control your environment better.
Augmentation: By spending two additional planar points of the same type, the target of this formula may also ignore the impended magic trait of the inner plane associated with the application used.
Quasielemental Blood
3rd-level Transmutation formula [See text]
Minimum Cost: See text
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 1 minute (D)
Augmentation: No
You mix the planar energy from one elemental plane and one energetic plane of your choosing, and redirect the quasielemental energy into your own blood. This formula has eight different applications, one for each quasielement. Each application duplicates the effect of one or more spells on you. They also have a different cost and provide the formula with a different descriptor.

Both applications of this formula can counter and dispel
Continual Flame, but
Continual Flame may only counter or dispel the Radiance application.
* Light spells counter and dispel darkness spells of an equal or lower level.
Augmentation: For each fire point spent after the minimum cost, the duration of the formula increases by 1 hour and its effective level increases by 1 for the purpose of effects that rely on it (to a maximum of 9th level).
Ray of Enervation
4th-level Necromancy formula [Death]
Minimum Cost: 2 N
Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Effect: Ray of negative energy
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: None (normal) or Fortitude partial (augmented)
Spell Resistance: Yes
Augmentation: Yes
You point your finger and utter the incantation, releasing a black ray of crackling negative energy that suppresses the life force of any living creature it strikes. You must succeed on a ranged touch attack to hit the target. If the attack succeeds, the subject gains 1d4 negative levels.
If the subject has at least as many negative levels as HD, it dies. Each negative level gives a creature a -1 penalty on attack rolls, saving throws, skill checks, ability checks, and effective level (for determining the power, duration, DC, and other details of spells or special abilities).
Additionally, a spellcaster loses one spell or spell slot from his or her highest available level. Negative levels stack.
Assuming the subject survives, it regains lost levels after 10 minutes. Usually, negative levels have a chance of permanently draining the victims levels, but the negative levels from enervation dont last long enough to do so.
An undead creature struck by the ray gains 1d4Χ5 temporary hit points for 1 minute.
Augmentation: By spending an additional 3 N, the target must also make a Fortitude save or die instantly. The subject may die from negative levels even if it succeeds on its saving throw.

Minimum Cost: 2 A
Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Area: 10-ft.-radius spread
Duration: Instantaneous

Storm of Fire and Ice
6th-level Evocation formula [Air, Cold, Fire, Water]
Minimum Cost: 6 A, 6 F, 6 W
Range: Long (400 ft. + 40 ft./level)
Area: Cylinder (20-ft. radius, 40 ft. high)
Duration: 1 round
Saving Throw: Reflex half
Spell Resistance: Yes
Augmentation: Yes

A shower of lava globs and hailstones rains down for 1 round, dealing 6d6 points of cold damage and 6d6 points of fire damage to everything in the area.
The cylinder provides concealment similar to the
Fog Cloud spell and also applies a -4 penalty on Listen checks made within the area.
Movement costs within the area of the spell are doubled.
At the end of the duration, the lava and ice disappear, leaving no lingering effects (other than the damage dealt).
While this formula is in many ways similar to the spell of the same name (described in Complete Mage), they don't counter one another.
Augmentation: For each 1 A, 1 F and 1 W spent after the minimum cost, this formula deals an additional 1d6 points of cold damage and 1d6 points of fire damage to everything in the area, and its effective level increases by 1 (to a maximum of 9th level) for the purpose of effects that rely on it, such as its save DC.

This formula summons a creature from one of the elemental planes. It appears where you designate and acts immediately, on your turn. It attacks your opponents to the best of its ability. If you can communicate with the creature, you can direct it not to attack, to attack particular enemies, or to perform other actions.
A summoned monster cannot summon or otherwise conjure another creature, nor can it use any teleportation or planar travel abilities. Creatures cannot be summoned into an environment that cannot support them.
The formula conjures a creature from the following table. Each creature has a different cost and provide the formula with a different descriptor. All the creatures on the table are neutral unless otherwise noted.

By spending 2 additional planar points of each type required to summon a specific kind of creature, you can summon 1d4+1 creatures of that kind instead of only one. In addition, the effective level of the formula increases by 1 or 2, respectively, for the purpose of effects that rely on it. These two augmentations cannot be combined.
