Weapon of God

9-level Evocation

A titanic celestial force, such as a colossal fist or weapon, appears at a point you can see in the air and slams down onto the ground in a 60-foot radius cylinder with a height as high as you can see. Each creature, object, and structure within the cylinder takes 100 damage. The damage type depends on the alignment of the deity you worship: radiant for good, force for neutral or a pantheon spanning multiple alignments, or necrotic for evil. If your deity is associated with a particular damage type (as Hephaestus is with fire damage or Thor with lightning), your DM can choose for this spell to deal that damage type instead. Damage from this spell can’t be reduced or prevented in any way.   The force can take whatever form you choose. Clerics of deities who are associated with a particular weapon (as St. Cuthbert is known for his mace and Thor for his hammer) make this spell’s effect resemble that weapon.   The spell fails if you can’t see a point in the air at least 100 feet above the ground that could accommodate the celestial force (for example, if you are in a room with a ceiling lower than 100 feet).
