Your hand takes on a blue tint and your fingers turn numb and unresponsive as you complete the spell. From your chilled palm flies an orb composed of blue ice.
An orb of cold about 3 inches across shoots from your palm at its target, dealing 1d6 points of cold damage per caster level (maximum 15d6). You must succeed on a ranged touch attack to hit your target.
A creature struck by the orb takes damage and becomes blinded by the cold’s chill for 1 round. A successful Fortitude save negates the blinded effect but does not reduce the damage.
