        In the rules that I have seen, there have been very few material offensive spells. By this I mean spells which can affect the environment as well as a living target. Form/Set [substance] is one of the few that I have seen. Thus I created Mindlance, and I wish to show it to you for your opinions. This spell has been partially playtested in an encounter with high initiate/low rune lord players.

        Mindlance
[Ranged, Instant, I assume -Ed]

        This spell creates a powerful bolt of energy which flys from the caster's hand and strikes a target. For every point of Intensity, the bolt does 1D3 points of damage. This strikes one hit location, determined by the missile/spell location chart. Armor and spells like Protection count vs. this damage. This spell does not create a force like a laser, but an actual hammer-like blow, thus knockback may apply.

        Also, what spell would work agains a spell that does physical damage like this, Damage Resistance or Spell Resistance or both?
