Magic missile

A magic missile is a bolt of pure energy from the caster's fingertips, which never misses its target unless prevented by magical means. The number of missles one can cast increases with experience, at a rate of one for every two levels, with a maximun of 5 missles for a 9th level caster. This is one of the most frequently chosen first-level spells by mages, due to its utility at lower levels.
