DESCRIPTION

The paper of the ofuda becomes as rigid as steel and multiplies into a storm of blades, flying out to strike at infernals within the area.

The knife-like edges of the multiplying papers inflict 1d6 points of damage per effective spell level + sutra casting ability modifier to all infernals in a 60 ft. cone.

Any creature in that makes a successful Reflex saving throw takes only half damage (Save DC is equal to 10 + effective spell level + the sutra casting ability modifier of the caster). Creatures resistant to piercing and slashing weapons are resistant to the effects of this sutra. Any characters casting this ofuda against infernal creatures on their favored enemy list can re-roll 1s and 2s when calculating damage. If the caster so chooses, the celestial blades fly around a number of allied creatures caught within the area of effect, leaving them unharmed. The caster may choose a number of allies equal to the caster’s sutra casting ability score modifier.
