Prismatic spray

Prismatic spray was an evocation spell that could affect multiple targets with a variety of effects.

Effects

 * Red : Inflicted fire damage.
 * Orange : Inflicted acid damage.
 * Yellow : Inflicted lightning damage.
 * Green : Inflicted poison damage.
 * Blue : Inflicted cold damage.
 * Indigo : A creature affected by this ray became paralyzed and was subsequently turned to stone.
 * Violet : A creature struck by this ray became blind, and could be subsequently banished to another plane.

Components
The spell required only verbal and somatic components.

History
The spell was attributed to Netherese arcanist Anglin of Seventon in -1929 DR and was originally called Anglin's spray.
