Maybe this seems wrong to some people, but does a victim necessarily have to be excluded from being hit again? If you're trying to write like the AD&D spell, it has the possibility(worst-case scenario) of bouncing back and forth between two people, until the spell is exhausted. What if you simply kept one value in the spell, keeping track of who was last hit? That person would be immune from the next hit, but could be hit again afterwards. (In fact, if the spell could follow the current victim from room to room, it would open up a whole new range of possibilities.)
