Description
Complicated multiple mechanical effect. GM Permission required.

NOTE: due to ridiculous cost overages this does not even remotely model the source material, particularly the Blue, Indigo, and Violet rays. This version works best vs. a pack of weaker opponents; crowd control essentially. The source material's version of this spell is just too powerful to model under this system; all due apologies.
