The coal-colored cloth of this robe is decorated
with crimson-stitched runes. The runes run
around the bottom and up the length of the garment
in meandering lines, and are a mixture of
arcane formulas and praises to fire written in
Ignan. The robe emits a faint odor of brimstone,
and a gentle warmth surrounds it.
While you wear this robe, it provides
you with a +4 armor bonus to AC. This
is a continuous effect and requires no
activation.
The robe can also be activated as a swift
(command) action by speaking a word in
Ignan that causes four fiery orbs, each
about 6 inches in diameter, to spring from
the sleeves. They circle slowly around
your body at waist height as long as the
robe remains active, but don’t interfere
with your actions in any way. As long as
they are active, Each orb provides
light equal to that of a torch and a
cumulative resistance to fire 5 (Max. 20).
Four times per day, you can send one of
the fiery orbs streaking toward a single
enemy within 60 feet as a ranged touch
attack, which is a standard (command)
action. A creature struck directly by
the sphere receives no saving throw.
Failure means the orb misses and
explodes explodes in the target's square
in a blast of heat and shower of sparks.
it explodes in a 5-foot radius burst
around the target, dealing 8d6 points
of fire damage and leaving affected
creatures dazzled for 1 round (Reflex
DC 18 halves the damage and negates the
dazzled condition).
