  * This spell creates fire that lasts long enough to ignite objects with a //Resistant// burn rating or less (see //Making Things Burn//, Basic Set p433). This only works on inanimate objects that are not being held by someone else. It is essentially a flashy way to light a campfire, torch, etc.

While very powerful, this ability is also very dangerous, as some things are so awful, so terrible, that having them burned into one's mind forever is a sure ticket to madness. Additionally, shutting one's third eye requires another 'casting' of this effect, rather than relying on a duration running out -- this means that an unlucky caster can find themselves unable to close their third eye again, caught by the wonders and terrors of the world-behind-the-world. Despite its name, this ability affects all senses.
