Effect	This spell creates a severe blast of air ( 60+ mph ) that originates from you, affecting all creatures in its path. The force of the gust automatically extinguishes candles, torches, and similar unprotected flames. It causes protected flames, such as those of lanterns, to dance wildly and has a 50% chance to extinguish those lights. In addition to the effects noted, a gust of wind can do anything that a sudden blast of wind would be expected to do. It can create a stinging spray of sand or dust, fan a large fire, overturn delicate awnings or hangings, heel over a small boat, and blow gases or vapors to the edge of its range. Additionally, the caster can instead choose increase or decrease the speed of existing wind by 10mph per rank with a maximum speed of 80mph OR shift the angle of the wind's direction by up to 45 degrees. Speeds higher than 80mph are not affected. Size Grounded Flying Tiny or smaller Knocked prone and rolled Rank x 3 yards. 1 point of non-lethal damage per yard.
