You send a bolt of lightning from your hands headed straight in his
direction. He turns away to avoid looking directly into the light.
You smile as you know he's about to be cooked to a crisp. But
the bolt flies right past him! You never miss with your spells!
And he's got that big old metal tipped lightning rod he's carrying around
that should have attracted your energy blast. No matter, your
next shot will get him.
Again he dodges it!
And again!
