Description

You praise the graveyard, that place of dank stenches, the garden of bones. At the culmination of the spell, dark vapors ooze upwards, grasping all in their clammy embrace.

Barrow Haze creates a bank of fog similar to that created by Fog Cloud (Spell), except the vapors are black and they have a necromantic tinge. All creatures which pass through one or more of these squares gains the Singed condition, inflicting negative (energy, uncommon) damage. If a creature ends its movement in one or more of these squares, it gains the Burned condition, also inflicting negative (energy, uncommon).

Note that some Undead may be healed by the effects of this spell!

A moderate wind (11+ mph) disperses and dispels the effect in 2 rounds; a strong wind (21+ mph) disperses and dispels the effect in 1 round. The spell effect cannot penetrate liquids, nor can it be cast underwater or in other fluids. Other Environmental Effects may disperse or enhance it at the GM's discretion.

This spell is subject to dispersal by Dispersing spells. Dispersing spells contain vigorous winds, fresh air, air currents, or other effects. Squares of this spells effect which intersect with a Dispersing Spell's squares of effect are dispelled, but all other squares remain. GM's adjudicate all unusual circumstances.

Dispersing Spells include Dispersing ({{#dpl:|category = Dispersing|mode = inline|inlinetext = ,   }}), and any other effects the GM rules as dispersing gases, fogs, mists, etc.
