Bee is a cantrip that conjures a bee capable of travelling an extra 20 feet in any direction to sting a chosen creature without needing a to hit roll. The damage caused by the bee is 1 hit point. The exact point of attack by the cantrip can be anywhere upon the victim's exposed body.

Level cantrip

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 sting breaks the concentration of a spellcaster weaving a spell.

Allergic Reaction

There's a 3% chance per caster level that the victim, if humanoid, might suffer an allergic reaction to the sting. If an allergic reaction occurs, the victim is granted a saving throw vs. poison — failure causes the area around the sting to swell and become very painful, causing a general -2 penalty against the victim's attack rolls. In such cases, an additional 1-6 damage is caused by the bee.

Additionally, the swollen area becomes useless for a period of one full day, so that the individual might be blinded or be unable to eat if stung on the face, or unable to use a hand that's been affected.

The bee cantrip is similar to a group of other personal cantrips that include bug, gadfly, mouse and spider.
