Death spell is great (there is a type of spell called Death Spell, and a actual spell called that too) But useless agenst monsters over 8HD, anything 8HD or lower on the screen is toast. Great for Sauhgian (spelling?) city, if your going the "kill-the-entire-evil-race-rout" like me, beacuse ALL of them (except 2 special ones with names) are less than 8HD and thus, setting that spell off results in tons of freash sushi.
