Purge

3rd-level necromancy

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: Self

Components: V, S

Duration: Instantaneous

A gout of caustic bile streams from your mouth. You can choose to create a toxic circle around yourself or send a stream of bile at one creature.

• Circle. You turn in a quick circle as you cast this spell, covering the ground in a 15-foot radius centered on you in slippery, acidic bile for 1 minute. The area becomes difficult terrain, and each creature, other than you, that enters the spell’s area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or become poisoned while it remains within the spell’s area.
• Targeted. You spray a jet of caustic bile at a creature you can see within 30 feet of you. Make a ranged spell attack against the target. On a hit, the target takes 4d6 acid damage and is poisoned until it, or another creature within reach of it, uses an action to wipe off the bile.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 3rd. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the circle’s radius increases by 5 feet for every two slot levels above 3rd.
