Not bad, but needs some work

This is ok. The damage is fine at 2d8 a level, and it seems typeless damage but this is 9th level, so sure. The range is HUGE as big. But wait, 3 rounds casting, we're ok again. And a penalty if you fail a second save (which says Will above but Fort in text). It doesn't say how to cure the penalties, I presume its as Bestow Curse, but you should specify by saying above to be removed by Remove Curse or Break Enchantment (you can also say Wish, Limited Wish, and Miracle but by that time it's redundant if Remove Curse can do it). The other issue of course is use. It has city busting use in that it'll nuke a large part of a city and kill probably everything inside. Against PCs, the radius is a lesser issue. Against monsters and used by the PCs, it could end battles, but thats why its 9th level. The range of it ironically makes it dangerous to cast if your party gets caught in it. And amusingly, evasion makes you able to avoid this spell.

Figure out if it's Reflex and Will or Reflex and Fort, clean up the grammar and add more fluff, and specify the nature of the permanent curse, and you should be golden. -- Eiji Hyrule 08:10, October 5, 2010 (UTC)

The image could be shrunken, a lot. --Havvy 09:07, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
This spell is NOT to be used by players unless the DM is running an Evil campaign.Final Boss 20:11, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
Even with the Evil descriptor, that hardly means it wouldn't be used. Animate dead is an evil spell, and good characters (should) use it a lot. - TG Cid 20:18, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
