 As it advances, the zephyr can extinguish [[Torch|torches]] and [[Lantern|lanterns]], regardless of how well protected they may be, for the magical can infiltrate even the tiniest crevices.  This is sufficient to raise "white horses" upon water surfaces, raise dust and loose paper or move small branches upon trees.  Lighter objects such as leaves, dust, seeds, and similar particles can be effortlessly swept from surfaces, while wind chimes and flags respond to its presence by swaying gently.
-The spell also has the capacity to disperse swarms of insects, including those summoned by spells like [[Insect Plague (spell)|insect plague]], [[Summon Insects (spell)|summon insects]] or [[Creeping Doom (spell)|creeping doom]].  Additionally, it can disrupt or impede the progression of various natural or magical phenomena such as [[Natural Fire|flames]], [[Gas-based Attacks|gasses]], [[Rain|rain]], [[Haze (cantrip)|haze]], [[Fog Cloud (spell)|fog]] and like effects such as [[Cloudkill (spell)|cloudkill]], whether natural or magical in nature.  The effectiveness of the spell in countering these elements depends on the size of the affected area and the caster's level.

-'''Zephyr''' is a spell that creates a gentle breeze that emanates outward from the spellcaster in virtually every direction, although the caster has the ability to restrict the wind's span to a 60° angle on the compass.  This breeze possesses a mild force, less powerful than a [[Gust of Wind (spell)|gust of wind]], akin to wind conditions of [[Wind Speed|Force 3 or 4]], This is sufficient to raise "white horses" upon water surfaces, raise dust and loose paper or move small branches upon trees.

-As it moves forward, the zephyr will snuff out [[Torch|torches]] and [[Lantern|lanterns]], no matter how well protected (as the magic worms its way into the smallest crack).  Light objects, such as leaves, dust, seeds and the like can be cleared from a surface, while wind chimes and flags can be made to move.  The effect is about 120 ft. high.

-The spell pushes off swarms of insects, such as those created by [[Insect Plague (spell)|insect plague]], [[Summon Insects (spell)|summon insects]] or [[Creeping Doom (spell)|creeping doom]].  Additionally, it will obliterate or retard the progression of [[Natural Fire|flames]], [[Gas-based Attacks|gasses]], [[Rain|rain]], [[Haze (cantrip)|haze]], fog and like effects such as [[Cloudkill (spell)|cloudkill]], whether natural or magical in nature.  The spell's potency against these things depends on the overall size of what's being affected and the level of the caster.
