A beam of light streaks from the caster's finger and slams into the target creature's forehead, instantly causing the brain to overheat. This causes momentary confusion and delirium, and until the creature is healed by any cure spell, all attack rolls, saving throws, and proficiency or ability checks are made at -2 penalty.

Cooling the subject dispels heat exhaustion; pouring a canteen of water or cool liquid over the creature's head is also effective. Dispel magic removes the effect, and cure light wounds and similar healing spells relieve this condition.

Notes: Common for Elemental Fire priests from the Dark Sun setting.
