Earthquake (spell)

Earthquake releases a burst of energy, causing a powerful tremor that shakes the ground surface in all directions. All persons within the area of effect are at the quake's mercy, unable to do anything except, at minimum, to fall to the ground. The caster has little power over the earthquake's full intensity. Once the spell is discharged, the caster must roll dice to determine it's effect.

Earthquake

Range	120 ft.
Duration	5 rounds
Area of Effect	5 ft. radius per level
Casting Time	2 rounds
Saving Throw	none
Level	cleric (7th)

The quake affects all terrain, vegetation, structures and creatures indiscriminately.

The range determines the epicentre of the quake—the quake affects all within 5’ per level of the spellcaster. The cleric should roll 3d6 for each of the below. The numbers indicate the minimum needed to roll to have that particular effect; thus, a roll of 15 would cause all the effects up to number 15 to occur. All damage indicated on the table is cumulative.
