### Spell description

This spell is similar to the third level lightning bolt. When casted this spell can be held for 1D4 rounds plus one round per level of the caster. The damage is 1D6 per level of the caster up to 12D6 max. When damage is rolled ones are counted as twos. In Addition if the caster wishes he can divided the bolt in to 6 hit die [So Athena can hit three creatures with 7D6 Damage] or better. The material component is the same as lightning bolt plus a tiny hour- glass which is not consumed in the casting.
