This weapon lobs a bead of ionized slag, baking creatures on impact. If you're trained with this weapon, you leave the affected squares as hazardous terrain until the end of your next turn. A creature takes 1 fire damage per weapon die each time it moves into one of these squares. The ionized slag lobber must be loaded with at least light Bulk of worthless junk each time you reload it, but the ionizing process ignores whether or not the junk is made out of any precious materials.
