Effects: 

This spell is a part of the Thirst spell chain and is found in the Thirst rune stone.

The dehydramancer calls upon the punishing nature of the Desert, conjuring a whip of crystallized salt that lashes across the target with cruel force, doing 3d10 damage. The Desert does not simply wound — it lingers. Any target already suffering from a dehydration or thirst-based status effect takes an additional 2d10 damage and loses 1d6 Vitality per round as the salt drives their suffering deeper. Like the Desert itself however, this power can turn on those who wield it carelessly. If the caster rolls a natural 1 on the cast roll, the salt lash recoils and strikes the caster instead for the base 3d10 damage.

Rune Stone Effect: 

Weapon Effect: Salt Lash

Critical Hit inflicts dehydration on the target for 1d4 rounds.
