Harnessing small amount of firey aether around yourself in a thin haze to allow the caster to see in darkened areas.

While Opieus is right in that MoF already does this, it would be nice for a "flash" effect to be added to all of our light-creating spells/cantrips. The self-cast of the Burning Touch cantrip would be an excellent example. You gesture and a fiery aura briefly surrounds your hands. I would like it if it would give a glimpse of a dark room, much like the Moon Mage cantrip, Meah K'et (flare).

> You arent going to get a cantrip that has 5 different useful quirks, especially when you have a spell that already has the effect you are asking for.

Normally, I don't carry a feedbag around with me, but I have to inquire... How does lighting up a room equal five different useful quirks?

>I would list the things the burning cantrip already does for you but I lack the motivation

I'm pretty sure I can sum up the entire effect of the cantrip in less words than your lack of motivation post. It lights things on fire or it makes your hands glow. So, one useful effect and one fluffy effect that is the basis for the request.

With a deft manipulation of your Ethereal Shield, you bring its protective field to rest against the skin of your face. You run your glowing fingers around your face, removing all trace of the beard while your Ethereal Shield prevents your skin from becoming seared.

Right, I forgot that it also replaces a razor. Fair enough.

However (not a reply to Jhime, but to the whole thread), BRF wasn't asking for burning touch to be improved anyhow. I think he proposed an entirely different cantrip.

>Well, actually, I was thinking of adding the flash to Burning Touch, but an entirely new cantrip wouldn't be too terrible, either.

Sorry, meant BFR.
