You imbue a handful of sand or dirt with the essence of oil. The sand appears normal in every way, but it functions as lantern oil, which burns for one hour.
Your burning sand can be tossed as an improvised weapon (like alchemist’s fire) on a burning creature as an attack (or tossed and lit separately), dealing 1d4 fire damage at the start of a burning creature’s turn which can be extinguished with a Dexterity check (the difficulty equals your spellcasting DC).
Alternately, one application of this spell creates enough burning sand for a small campfire which burns for 30 minutes. When used as a campfire, burning sand cannot be extinguished except by total immersion in water or supernatural means.
You may only have one application of this spell active at a time, casting it a second time (including as a ritual) neutralizes the first casting.
