This spell can be cast on any creature with an inherently evil nature from another plane of existence. This includes all demons and devils but could include other extra-dimensional creatures as well or even some (GM discretion) creatures or entities that are not inherently extra-dimensional but nevertheless are extremely evil and have the ability to travel extra-dimensionally.
The target of the spell is allowed a saving throw. If the save is failed, the creature is banished to another plane, usually its home plane of existence. If the save is made, they experience a dimensional vortex as the spell tries to banish them. They are not banished but suffer 1d8 damage per level of the caster. If a critical save is made, they suffer half damage and, if a grievous save is made, they are unaffected.
The material components for this spell are the priest's holy symbol and holy water. |
