*/ /** @file

Type of Feat: Class
Prerequisite: Brimstone Speaker 1
Specifics: The Brimstone Speaker can speak a truename that translates as "tongue of fire". This ability allows them to create a line of fire 20 feet long. Those hit by the fire have a DC vs 10 + Class levels + Con modifier. There are three versions of the Tongue of Fire: 3d6 with a Truespeak DC of 25, 5d6 with a DC of 30, and 8d6 with a DC of 35. This ability is affected by the Law of Resistance.
Use: Selected.
