General Information
Forbidden Sun is a powerful projectile spell reminiscent of the Demon's Souls variant of Fireball. Casting it releases a large ball of fire that quickly travels towards the target in a slightly arced trajectory; upon reaching the target, the fireball explodes, dealing damage and leaving behind a short-lived pool of lava. The spell benefits from moderately high damage, as well as very fast casting time; this is offset by its low number of casts and its very high slot requirement.
