Dancing lights

Dancing lights was a evocation spell that provided moving lights to a area.

Effect
Casting this spell in the older version the caster could pick too make 4 touch or lantern like lights, or 4 glowing orb like lights, or a vaguely humanoid shape. The lights had to stay within a 10 foot (3 meters) cube of each other and could move up to 100 feet (30 meters) per six seconds. This spell could be made permanent with the Permanency spell.

The newer post Sundering version of the spell also created 4 lights that could be touch, sphere or lanterns and any of those four could be combined to make a glowing humanoid shape. The lights could move 60 feet per 6 seconds and had to stay in a 20 foot cube of each other.

If ether versions of the spell had the lights move out of range the lights would wink out.

Drow
Drow elves can cast this spell once a day as a spell-like ability. Some drow have also learned to combine this power with their other abilities of darkness and faerie fire to produce even stranger effects.

Components
Verbal and somatic components where needed for the casting of both versions the newer version also needed some phosphorus or wychwood or a glow-worm.
