Level: Sorcerer 7, Wizard 7
Components: S
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Personal
Target: Your breath weapon
Duration: 1 round/level
You exhale a flaming tongue of fire, but instead of lashing out against your foes, it produces a creature made of flames that answers to your bidding.
For this spell to function, you must have a breath weapon, either as a supernatural ability or as the result of casting a spell such as dragon breath. When you successfully cast this spell, you imbue the energy of your breath weapon with coherence, mobility, and a semblance of life. The animated breath then attacks whomever or whatever you designate. The spell works only on breath weapons that deal energy (acid, cold, electricity, fire, or sonic) damage. The animated breath uses the statistics of a Huge fire elemental, with the following exceptions.
