Firefinger (cantrip).jpg

Firefinger causes a flame to flow from the caster's finger that's able to light a lamp, torch, candle, oil-soaked rag or split log, along with paper, straw and oil floating atop water, without other assistance. Upon touching the item, it will spring into illumination at once.

Firefinger
Range 6 in.
Duration 1 round
Area of Effect 1 object
Casting Time 1 action point
Saving Throw none
Level cantrip

Objects not listed might still catch fire if exposed to the finger. Each is entitled to a saving throw vs. normal fire. The effect doesn't last long enough to produce significant heat, though it will produce a flash of light that may help the character gain his or her bearings for a moment. There's no remaining afterglow after the cantrip ends.

The flame lasts only an instant, but it has the power to cause a single point of damage, provided the caster is immediately adjacent to the target (no roll is needed to hit).
