I've been making my first PF character, and ran into a question of balance.
The third-party Kitsune Bloodling (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/sorcerer/bloodlines/bloodlines-from-3rd-party-publishers/everyman-gaming-llc---sorcerer-bloodlines/kitsune-bloodline-sorcerer) gets this as its first bloodline power:
Foxfire (Sp): At 1st level, as a standard action, you can create up to four eerie spheres of light that function as dancing lights. While in possession of one or more of these spheres, you can attack one target within 30 feet as a ranged touch attack by directing a sphere at it. This sphere deals 1d6 points of fire damage. Whether or not the sphere hits, it disappears as if its duration ended. You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Charisma modifier.
That seems awfully powerful to me, considerable stronger than many first-level spells.
As a second question, how much would it affect the ability's power at low levels to change the damage type to cold?
