You call forth the claws of an ancient celestial predator from the Astral Plane, manifesting them as shimmering, razor-sharp talons of starlight that descend upon your enemies from above. The Astral Talons slash down at creatures within range, their strikes infused with celestial energy, capable of bypassing defenses and delivering devastating attacks.
You summon three Astral Talons to strike targets of your choice within range. You can direct the talons at one target or several. Each talon makes a melee spell attack against a creature within 120 feet. On a hit, a talon deals 4d6 force damage and has the following additional effects based on the target's position:
-
Grounded Targets (Creatures on the Ground):
When a talon strikes a grounded target, the creature is knocked prone unless it succeeds on a Strength saving throw against your spell save DC. This effect represents the massive force of the celestial claw crushing down from above, pinning the target momentarily before it disappears. -
Aerial Targets (Flying Creatures):
If a talon strikes a flying creature, the target must make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failed save, the target’s flight is disrupted, and they fall 30 feet. If this fall causes them to hit the ground, they take falling damage as normal.
