Creatures in the area are coated in glowing goo, which sheds light like a candle. Such creatures are treated as if under the effect of a faerie fire spell. Coated creatures take 3d6 points of fire damage for 12 rounds. A DC 26 Reflex save halves the duration of the effect. The wurm's spray cannot be rinsed off with water, though prestidigitation will remove the goo from one Medium or smaller creature. The save DC is Constitution-based.
