Lore Benefit
Training in Elemental Lore, Fire provides a chance equal to the caster's Elemental Lore Fire bonus / 2 to trigger a 2nd elemental strike on a random opponent in the room for an additional cost of 5 mana. The original target of the spell is eligible to be hit by the 2nd elemental strike. The additional strike will only strike creatures and will never occur if a player casts this spell at another player or if the additional 5 mana is not available.
