Hello again
I need help with this spell I am working on. I almost have it…I think
The spell is:
Prismatic Sphere
Caster Level(s): Wiz / Sor 9
Innate Level: 9
School: Abjuration
Descriptor(s): None
Component(s): Verbal, Somatic
Range: Personal
Area of Effect / Target: Self (with effects on the first attacker)
Duration: 1 round / level or until discharged
Additional Counter Spells: Dispel Magic
Save: Reflex partial, Fortitude partial, Will partial (varies by effect)
Spell Resistance: Yes
Description:
Prismatic Sphere surrounds the caster with a radiant multicolored sphere of defensive energy, which unleashes devastating effects on the first creature to successfully strike the caster.
These effects occur in the following sequence:
-
Blinding Light: Creatures with fewer than 8 Hit Dice must succeed on a Reflex save (DC 20) or be blinded for 10 rounds.
-
Elemental Fury: Creatures that attack you must make a Fortitude save (DC 20) or take 1d10 points of damage from each of the following damage types: acid, fire, cold, electrical, sonic, divine, positive, negative, piercing, slashing, and bludgeoning.
-
Instant Death: Creatures must succeed on a Will save (DC 20) or die instantly.
-
Wyvern Poison: On a failed Fortitude save (DC 20), attackers are afflicted with Wyvern Poison, dealing 1d6 Strength damage per round for 6 rounds or until cured.
-
Confusion: Creatures that fail a Will save (DC 20) become confused for 2d10 rounds.
-
Petrification: Creatures must succeed on a Reflex save (DC 20) or be permanently turned to stone.
The sphere dissipates after the first attack, releasing its stored energy.
This spell does not block physical attacks or magic, but its retaliatory effects serve as a potent deterrent to those who dare attack the caster.
