Damocles Sword

You cast the sword of Damocles above the target you physically touch, yourself included. While this sword is above the targets head they gain a +3 to all "to hit" rolls they make as well as an additional 5 damage to each attack made. Furthermore, if the "to hit" value reaches or exceeds a total of 20 it will be considered a critical hit. After every attack made by the target the DM will need to roll a D100 to determine if the sword falls, if the D100 rolls a 90-100 the sword will fall. After every two attacks, or every two hours of noncombat, if the sword has not fallen, the 90-100 number decreases by 5 becoming; 85-100, for two attacks, or two hours of noncombat, until decreasing further. This number will decrease until the number reaches 50. When the sword falls and is cast on a new target this number value will be reset to 90-100 and will decrease again as follows. For every hour the target does not attack, the DM will need to roll a D100 to determine if the sword falls. When the sword falls on the target they will be knocked prone and their hit points will be reduced to 0 and will need to start their death saving throws. The sword falling cannot be avoided. This spell can be cast no more than one time per 2 long rests and cannot be set on more than one target at a time. If the sword is cast on a target and you attempt to cast it on a new target the spell will fail and the sword will remain above the initial target's head the spell will not be able to be cast for 2 long rests. You are only able to cast this spell on a new target once the sword has fallen. If more than one spell caster uses this spell, the first one to do so will be the caster of Damocles. There is only one Damocles above a target's head at one time. If another spell caster tries to cast this spell while Damocles is already present the spell will fail and they will need to wait 2 long rests before attempting again. If you die before the sword falls the sword will fall on your body and deal what the equivalent of a 1 on a D20 for death saves; you start with 2/3 fails 0/3 success. 

**Damocles is a sword that hangs above someone’s head by a mere string. Everyone can see Damocles above your head and can ask questions. The string will attach itself to the roof seamlessly and when outside you can see the glimmar of the string reaching the clouds. (The string does not restrict where the player can move). In time the string will break and Damocles will fall.**

**Casting condition, The spell caster must call out, “Damocles” as they cast the spell.**
