Synapse Overload

School divination [mind-affecting]; Level mesmerist 4, psychic 5

Casting Time 1 standard action

Components V

Range touch

Target living creature touched

Duration instantaneous

Saving Throw Fortitude partial (see text); Spell Resistance yes

You cause the target's mind to unleash a vast overflowing torrent of information throughout the target's body, causing the target's synapses to violently trigger. The target takes 1d6 points of electrical damage per caster level (maximum 15d6) and is staggered for 1 minute. A successful Fortitude saving throw doesn't reduce the damage, but it negates the staggered effect.
