Area: Nongood creatures in a 40-ft.-radius spread centered on you Duration: Instantaneous Saving Throw: None or Will negates; see text Spell Resistance: Yes Any nongood creature within the area that hears the holy word suffers the following ill effects. HD Effect Equal to caster level Deafened Up to caster level -1 Blinded, deafened Up to caster level -5 Paralyzed, blinded, deafened Up to caster level -10 Killed, paralyzed, blinded, deafened The effects are cumulative and concurrent. No saving throw is allowed against these effects. DeafenedThe creature is deafened for 1d4 rounds. BlindedThe creature is blinded for 2d4 rounds. ParalyzedThe creature is paralyzed and helpless for 1d10 minutes. KilledLiving creatures die. Undead creatures are destroyed. Furthermore, if you are on your home plane when you cast this spell, nongood extraplanar creatures within the area are instantly banished back to their home planes. Creatures so banished cannot return for at least 24 hours. This effect takes place regardless of whether the creatures hear the holy word. The banishment effect allows a Will save (at a -4 penalty) to negate. Creatures whose HD exceed your caster level are unaffected by holy word.[/sblock]His intention is to maximize the effect of the spell by including as many warriors as possible within the area (40' radius is HUGE).  He is hoping the warriors are of low enough level (10 HD or less) that they are paralyzed; freeing Maggie and cutting a clear path to the enemy.  He will cast defensively if necessary (+20 Concentration, DC 22).IC:Devan fights his way to the front of the line and bravely holds his ground as the Tiger Clan Warriors surge in around him.  He raises his bastard sword as if to strike but instead shouts a of word of celestial perfection.  The word fills your hearts with joyous glory but it has devastating effect on the charging enemy.  A collective scream issues from the throats of those with evil hearts (non-good actually) as the wave of power pulses from Devan out to cover much of the room.  Tiger Clan warriors crumple in heaps or drop their weapons to clutch at their eyes or ears.  The way is clear... for now.OOC:  Thought I'd go a for a bit of narrative text <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> .  I'm expecting this spell to devastate the mass of soldiers.  If it doesn't, we are in deep doo doo.</blockquote>
