So... and to actually help out the OP with what he asked for
here's the quote from Dead Beat:
Fire lashed from her left hand—not a gout of flame like I could call up, but a slender needle of fire so bright that it hurt the eyes to see. She swept it in an arc at thigh level, and every one of the zombies coming behind went tumbling to the ground amidst crackling sounds of shattering muscle and singeing meat. I'd say it's a zone attack.... since it would have had to be one HECK of a spell to fit into the spray-attack mechanics and still be strong enough at each target to kill it.
EDIT: ... and to make a Fool of myself, i realize after i posted this that the quote was already there... Yay Me!
