8th-level evocation (Sorcerer, Wizard)


  • Casting Time: 1 action
  • Range: 300 feet
  • Components: V, S, M (a pinch of volcanic ash)
  • Duration: Instantaneous

Four 10-foot radius circles of glowing glyphs appear on solid surfaces you can see within range. You can not overlap the circles. Flames erupt from the center of each circle in a 10-foot radius, 50-foot long cylinder. Every creature within the affected areas must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 20d8 fire damage. On a successful save, the creature takes half damage. If the cylinders overlap, their damages do not stack with each other.

At Higher Levels. If you cast this spell with a slot of 9th level, you increase the number of cylinders to six.
