Windlance

5th-level evocation (Sorcerer,Warlock,Wizard)


  • Casting Time: 1 action
  • Range: Self (20-foot radius)
  • Components: V, S
  • Duration: Instantaneous

You and every creature within range are launched into the air by a powerful burst of wind. You cannot avoid being launched into the air, but other creatures can make a Strength saving throw to stay on the ground. Creatures that fail the Strength saving throw are sent 70 feet into the air, and are likely to fall immediately after and take falling damage unless they have another means of staying aloft. If a ceiling prevents a creature affected by this spell from reaching the maximum height, it takes 1d6 bludgeoning damage for every 10 feet it traveled up before hitting the ceiling up.

As part of the action of casting this spell, a druid can also use the Wild Shape feature (it is usually used to transform into a flying creature).
