Exterminate

Exterminate was a useful cantrip that neophyte wizards could learn. It killed a small insect, rodent, or other common pest.

Effects
This spell only worked on non-magical creatures. It did not affect creatures that had been polymorphed or the subject of a shrink animal or shrink insect spell. It was effective on common vermin such as a mouse, a rat, a beetle, or a fly. If the target was sufficiently small, such as tiny ants or fleas, a volume of up to could be made free of that pest.

Components
This cantrip required verbal and somatic components to cast. The caster pointed a finger at the desired target and made a soft "zzzt" sound.

History
This cantrip was described in the untitled spellbook normally called Briel's Book of Shadows, along with three others.
