Casting Time: 1 action

  "Celestial Mantle of the Astral Guardian" cloaks the caster in a radiant armor of celestial energy, providing protection and empowering their presence with divine authority.
  Spell Effects:
  Divine Shielding: Upon casting, you are enveloped in a shimmering aura of celestial light. This mantle provides you with resistance to radiant and necrotic damage. Additionally, your Divine Shielding gains a damaging aura that causes any creature that attacks you with a melee attack while within 5 feet of you take radiant damage equal to your spellcasting ability modifier + 1d8.
Guardian's Authority: You radiate an aura of celestial authority. For the duration, you have advantage on all Charisma-based checks when interacting with good-aligned creatures, and your presence can inspire awe or fear in those who oppose you.
Astral Sight: Your vision is enhanced, allowing you to see into the Ethereal Plane up to 60 feet. You also gain advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight. And your attacks gain the ability to strike creatures on the near ethereal plane for the duration of the spell.
Celestial Rebuke: As a reaction when you take damage, you can emit a burst of radiant energy. The creature that damaged you must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 2d8 radiant damage, or half as much damage on a successful save.
  At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the spells duration increases by 10 minutes, the radius of your Divine Shielding's damage aura increases by 5 feet as well as expands to encompass ranged attacks within range, and the damage of both the damaging aura of Divine Sheilding and the Celestial Rebuke abilities increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 4th.
  "Celestial Mantle of the Astral Guardian" is a potent spell for those who seek the protection and authority of the celestial realms, enveloping them in a divine aura that shields, empowers, and strikes with the fury of the heavens.
