You utter the words of the Brotherhood Spell Lightning Hand and extend your right hand towards the approaching beast. You feel a surge of energy run down your arm and explode into life at the tip of your index finger. There is a flash and a gout of blue-white energy arcs towards the creature’s chest, connecting with powerful effect.

At first the ghastly creature shrieks in alarm and reels backwards, but to your horror it quickly recovers and comes leaping at you from the gangplank. It has absorbed the energy of your spell and it is now even stronger than before.
