3rd Edition
Scatterspray was a spell in general use throughout the Realms.

Effects
This spell caused a small group of items to suddenly fly off in random directions within the radius of the spell effect. The objects had to be free to move&mdash;coins in an open purse would work, but gems in a closed jewelry box would not&mdash;and clustered together in an area about the size of a dinner plate. A half-dozen or more objects could be launched by scatterspray, up to a total weight limit of about 1,250 gp. If creatures in the blast radius did not duck and cover, damage was determined by the nature of the projectiles.

Components
Verbal and somatic components were necessary to cast the spell, including pointing at the cluster of objects.

2nd Edition
'''

Effects
This spell caused a small group of items to fly about in random directions within the radius of the spell effect. The objects had to be free to move&mdash;coins in an open purse would work, but gems in a closed jewelry box would not&mdash;and could be up to the size of chicken eggs. Between a half-dozen and a dozen or so objects could be launched by scatterspray and would reach the radius of effect and then bounce around for the duration of the spell. Damage to creatures inside the area of effect was determined by their size and the nature of the projectiles. Small creatures took more damage, large creatures took little to none, but glass shards might be more dangerous than sling bullets. The caster of the spell was not harmed by being within the area of effect, and magical protections like shield or protection from normal missiles also prevented damage, but spell casting was very difficult while being pelted by shrapnel.

Components
Verbal, somatic, and material components were necessary to cast the spell, including the objects themselves and a flint and steel or tinderbox.
