Each creature in that line make a DC 19 Strength saving throw, taking 66 (12d10) force damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Force Strike. The banished uses Force Strike.
Poison Essence. The banished targets one creature it can see within 60 feet of it. The target must make a DC 19 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the next spell cast by the target deals to the target 1d8 necrotic damage per level of the spell.
Banish Magic (Costs 2 Actions). The banished emits an aura of antimagic, as in the antimagic field spell, in a 30-foot radius sphere centered on themself, until the start of its next turn.
Siphon Magic (Costs 2 Actions). The banished targets one creature it can see within 60 feet of it. The banished rolls a d8, and the target loses a spell slot of that level or lower. If the target has no spell slots left of that level or lower, nothing happens.

Description
Banished Mages were once powerful spellcasters, mages, warlocks or maybe clerics that fell into the hands of the Duchess of Dementia. However, these unfortunate souls did not meet a swift and painful end on a pyre, like so many of their brethren. Instead they were tortured relentlessly, poked with deep lead needles through the skull, locked for days in an iron maiden and some other gruesome methods. The goal was not torture, but to kill the spark of magic in them, to turn them into a banished one, an antimagic weapon for the Lord Sheogorath. This process made them irremediably mad, destroying their mind as surely as their magic.
Banished Mages constantly try to fill the magic void within them, draining the Light of Magus with no way of giving it shape or form. Reminiscence of their spellcraft only comes now in raw and violent burst of force energy. This makes them notoriously unstable, a magical siphon that could explode at any time. For this reason, most are constantly chained and never see the light of the day, locked down in some deep vault until there is no other solution left but to use them. When they are freed, they are transported in armored stagecoach and bound, under a heavy witch hunter escort.
