 Though the damage is very little, there's yet the possibility that the dweomer may stun a weak defender or generally contribute to an enemy's downfall.  Additionally, the bite breaks the concentration of a spellcaster [[Spellcasting|weaving a spell]].

 There's a 3% chance per caster level that the victim, if a riding or working [[Animal|animal]], including a [[Hippogriff|hippogriff]] or [[Pegasus|pegasus]], could be driven mad by the bite.  If so, the creature is possessed by a rage and will try to buck and throw it's rider.  If this happens, the rider must make a [[Saving Throws|saving throw against poison]] or be thrown from the mount.  Characters with animal handling [[Sage Ability|abilities]] of [[Knowledge Points|authority-status]] recieve a +3 bonus to this save.

-'''Gadfly''' creates a horse-fly that can appear up to 10 ft. from the caster, which can then travel 10 ft. further from that point and bite one creature.  The damage that's caused by the bite is 1 [[Hit Point|hit point]]; no roll [[Roll to Hit|to hit]] is necessary.
+'''Gadfly''' is a cantrip that conjures a biting horse-fly capable of travelling an extra 20 feet in any direction to bite a chosen creature without needing a [[Roll to Hit|to hit roll]].  The [[Damage (hit points)|damage]] caused by the gadfly is 1 [[Hit Points|hit point]].  The exact point of attack by the cantrip can be anywhere upon the victim's exposed body.

-The cantrip reflects the famous event when Bellerophon, astride upon the first pegasus, attempted to ride to the home of the gods atop Mount Olympus ... and when "Pegasus" was stung by a gadfly, Bellerophon was thrown off and fell to his death.
+If a cart or wagon is attached to the animal, the vehicle will be wrecked and unusable without several days of work and the animal's rage will cause it to suffer 2-12 additional damage.
