Eragon's Distain

A line of roaring purple flame 30 feet long and 5 feet wide emanates from you in a direction you choose. Each creature in the line must make a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 3d8 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. OPTIONAL: (The ground cracks and pales beneath your feet as the magic channels through you) Add an additional 3d8, at the cost of rolling a d20, on a 10 or lower, the direction the spell is aimed is randomized, as Eragon attempts to seize control.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 2nd.
