Combust
This spell makes a creature burst into flame. The initial eruption of flame causes 2d6 fire damage +1 point per caster level with no saving throw. Further, the creature must make a Reflex save or catch fire taking a further 1d6 + (caster level / 2) points of damage. This will continue until the Reflex save is made or until the target is restored.
