Usage
cast tarrants spectral hand <target>
This spell was originally conceived of and created by the famous necromancer Tarrant in his early years as a human. It summons an ethereal hand to attack the target, dealing both damage as well as freezing and chilling effects. The effects take some time to wear off, and the hand can penetrate almost all armors easily. Even creatures made from ice are not immune to this spell, taking half damage.
Neither ice nor fire creatures are subject to the hypothermia effects of this spell. The lingering chill can be countered by campfires and the mage 'melt' skill.
Like most spectral rot spells, it also lowers the target's morale.
