This spell is called the 'sorcerer's darling', due to its simplicity and frequency of use. It works by gathering a small ball of energy, which is then hurled toward the target. Some attribute the creation of this spell to Ishara, although nobody's sure.

The caster makes a ranged touch attack against the target. If it hits, this spell deals 1d6 damage + the user's highest mental ability score modifier (from among Intelligence, Wisdom or Charisma). This increases by 1d6 for every caster level above 1st.

Enhanced: The spell instead deals 1d8 damage + the user's highest mental ability score modifier. This increases by 1d8 for every caster level above 1st.

Diminished: The spell instead deals 1d4 damage. This increases by 1d4 for every caster level above 1st.

Immune: No effect.

Augment (+1 slot): Any creature struck by the spell must make a Reflex save. If failed, the creature is pushed directly away from the user 5ft, plus an additional 5ft for every 2 points by which they fail their save. If the spell is enhanced, double this distance; if it is diminished, halve it, rounding to the nearest 5ft. If it is immune, the distance can never exceed 5ft.

Item: Bracers of blasting, wand of eldritch blast

Alternative Names: Energy bolt, Ishara's energy projectile
