Immolating Holy Water
Evocation [Good]
Level: Inquisitor 2, Paladin 2
Components: V, S, DF, F
Casting time: 1 Swift Action
Range: Touch
Target: One flask of holy water.
Duration: Instantaneous (see text)
Saving Throw: Reflex half (see text)
Spell Resistance: Yes

You imbue a flask of holy water with divine energy, the flask must be thrown before the end of your next turn or the effect is wasted. When it impacts, the flask explodes into green flames. The damage from holy water augmented by this spell still only affects undead and evil outsiders (or other creatures specifically damaged by holy water). Upon casting this spell you must choose between a focused immolation or a immolating burst.

Focused Immolation: The square the holy water that was thrown in explodes into green flames, damaging anyone standing in the square even if the touch attack is ineffective (such as for an incorporeal undead). Both the initial damage and the splash damage increases by your casting ability modifier. The flames keep burning for 1 round, dealing the holy water damage on any creatures that move through or start their turn in the square.

Immolating Burst: The holy water does not produce a splash, instead the green flame spreads in a 20-ft.-radius spread. All creatures in the area must make a Reflex save or take the holy water damage. A creature that succeeds on it Reflex save takes half damage.

A flask of holy water empowered by this spell deals an additional 2d4 on a direct hit, which increases by another at 1d4 at 9th level each 2 levels thereafter and counts as fire damage whenever doing so would be advantageous.

Focus: A flask of holy water and divine focus.
