This spell causes a brilliant but tiny spark of light to flash before a creature's eyes, blinding it for 1D4 rounds. During that time, the creature fights as if blinded, and makes all saving throws at a -2 penalty. A successful saving throw vs. spell negates this effect. The priest can cast this spell only above ground and in the presence of the sun.

Notes: Uncommon for priests from the Dark Sun setting; otherwise, very rare.
