Deadfall

8th-level conjuration (Druid)


  • Casting Time: 1 action
  • Range: 300 feet
  • Components: V, S
  • Duration: Instantaneous

You summon a 20-foot radius by 40-foot high towering pile of wood and branches that collapses to the ground at a point you choose within range. A creature caught in the area when the pile collapses must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 12d10 bludgeoning damage, is knocked prone, and is restrained under the pile. On a successful save, the creature takes half the bludgeoning damage, isn't knocked prone, and isn't restrained. A restrained creature can attempt to free itself by using an action on its turn to make a Strength check against a DC of 20. Another creature can spend its actions every round for 1 minute to clear the rubble around the trapped creature. The area affected by this spell is considered difficult terrain until it is cleared.
