Prerequisite: Requires succeeding the Wisdom saving throw in an Ascendant encounter and rolling The Inquisitor.
Ascendant. You declare heresy against the unholy, immolating them and their allies with holy fire.
As an action, you can declare heresy against the unholy. Choose a creature within 30 feet of you. It, and all adjacent creatures, must succeed on a DC 13 Dexterity saving throw or take an 2d6 + your proficiency modifier of radiant damage as you condemn the heretics. Creatures that succeed take half damage.
You can use this ability once before refreshing it in town using Performing Sacred Rites or Religious Service Downtime actions.
At Higher Levels. The attack deals an extra 1d6 radiant damage and the ability DC increases by 2 when you reach 5th level, 10th level, 15th level, and 20th level.
