Description

As with magic missile, darts of force project from your fingertips to unerringly strike a creature. However, the missiles all may only strike one creature initially, after which each strike may then strike a secondary target. Each secondary target may only be struck by at most one of the missiles that struck the initial target. Each missile does 1d4+1 damage, and the caster may create one missile per two caster levels, up to a maximum of 10 missiles. Spells and spell items that protect from magic missile also protect from this spell. If the spell fails to do damage to the primary target, no secondary missiles are produced.
