Sacred Flame Spell in The Extended Perkinsverse | World Anvil

Sacred Flame

This is meant to be the Cleric's flagship cantrip but I have always found it less than impressive when compared to other Cleric cantrips provided by Subclasses. If the theming of Toll the Dead is something you're willing to sacrifice damage over then this is the Cleric cantrip you're probably choosing. NPCs and Monsters rarely, if ever, use cover so the secondary effect of this cantrip is of extremely niche use.

Effect

Target one creature that you can see within range. The target must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or take 1d8 radiant damage. The target gains no benefit from cover for this saving throw. At Higher Levels. The spell’s damage increases by 1d8 when you reach 5th level (2d8), 11th level (3d8), and 17th level (4d8).

Manifestation

This is a flash of divine fire, usually the colors and shapes are in correspondence to your deity of choice.

Source

The power for this spell is pulled from The Weave.
