Tad underpowered?
I think this is a decent spell, but after referencing the following spells:
- Flamestrike
- Touch of Fatigue (level 0 wiz spell)
- Poison (fortitude save Drd 3)
This does seem slightly underpowered to me. Fortitude save spells are definitely handy to have on hand sometimes, but I'd love to see this spell at least make the damage and fatigue rolls as separate Fort saves (perhaps with fatigue triggering a round later or something). I dunno-- trying to think of when this would be memorized over Poison or Flamestrike and it feels like it needs a little more to make it compelling for a 4th level spot. You (or the creator of the spell) might have had a particular balancing reason to have it as so, but just my $.02.
