Unholy Water
Holy water is made by a cleric or paladin with the divine grace of a good or neutral deity; it is impossible to create holy water if a cleric or paladin worships an evil deity instead. Rather, they have the option to make unholy water (those who worship neutral deities are also able to make unholy water).
A cleric or paladin that worships such a deity can create a flask's worth of unholy water by performing a 1-hour long ritual that uses 25 gp worth of powdered silver and a bit of brimstone or sulfur, and requires the caster to expend a 1st-level spell slot.
As an action, you can splash the contents of this flask onto a creature within 5 feet of you or throw it up to 20 feet, shattering it on impact. In either case, make a ranged attack against a target creature, treating the unholy water as an improvised weapon. If the target is a celestial, it takes 2d6 acid damage.
Additionally, unholy water can be used to cure the wounds of undead. A flask's worth of unholy water can be used as material component of cure wounds, which the spell consumes. When cast in this way, cure wounds can target an undead.
