Spasm

Can be directed against any of the subject’s voluntary
muscles. Directed against a hand, it causes the subject to
drop whatever he is holding (usually a weapon). If the subject is in the mid-
dle of a lengthy spell requiring gestures, he must make a DX roll or start
over. Ingenious casters will find other uses . . .
