Chain lightning

Chain lightning was an evocation spell that blasted a target with lightning then jumped on to more targets.

Effect
This spell created a lightning bolt that travels from target to target doing successfully less and less damage. Distance between targets was more important then what type of target they where. Depending on the casters skill the chain lightning would "jump" between targets more and more. '

Older versions of the spells could be stopped by it striking a grounded target like iron bars for example that would send the lightning in to the ground.

The post sundering version cast a bolt that struck a target then split on to three different bolts that struck different targets. If used with a higher spell level additional bolt would leap from the first target.

Components
Vocal and somatic and a bit of fur; amber piece, glass, or a crystal rod; and one silver pin for each of your caster levels. the post sundering version needed the same except only three silver pins total.
