Embrittle

Alteration
Tier: 2
Components: Verbal, Somatic
Casting Time: 1 major action
Ritual Casting Time: 5 minutes
Range: 40 ft
Target: One metal object (or part of a larger object) of up to small size.
Duration: 2 rounds/level
Saving Throw: Spell negates (object)
The hinge resists no longer, its shards scattering across the floor as the door falls inwards.

The target object becomes brittle, reducing its hardness by 5 for the duration of the spell, thereby making the object easier to damage. Rolling a natural 1 on an attack with a weapon subject to this spell causes it to take damage equal to the amount it would have dealt on a hit.
