Overambitious Spell (arcane)

Frequency once per day

---

Effect The exuberant apprentice's teacher has told them they're not ready for this spell, but desperate times call for desperate measures. The exuberant apprentice attempts to cast Fireball as a 3rd-rank arcane spell but must first attempt a DC 11 flat.

---

Critical Success The spell is cast flawlessly and heightened to 4th rank. The apprentice is Stunned 2 from sheer shock.

Success Nothing goes wrong, and the spell is cast normally.

Failure The spell fizzles and creates only a harmless puff of smoke.

Critical Failure Academic ablaze! The apprentice takes 6d6 fire damage as the magic backfires
