When this spell is uttered, those around the caster begin to hear words of doom and despair that physically degrade them. It can be cast at 3 different levels, those being a whisper, a conversation, and a shout. When cast it deals the appropriate damage to all that can hear it, no save required, including allies if they are not protected. After the first turn the damage can be reapplied as a bonus action, causing the damage to be triggered again (the caster may also choose to change its volume at this time)
- Whisper: when the spell is whispered it has a range of 5 feet around the caster, and is far more personal, dealing 3d6 psychic damage to all who hear it.
- Spoken: When the spell is spoken it has a range of 30ft around the caster, but is less personal, dealing 2d6 psychic damage to those that hear it.
- Shout: When the spell is shouted, it has a range of 60ft around the caster, but is incoherent, dealing only 1d6 psychic damage to those that hear it.
This spell has no effect on creatures that are deaf, cannot hear, or are under the effect of the silence spell. a creature under the effect of this spell can choose to use an action to plug their ears, which removes the effect of the spell on their next turn. The sound can be blocked by 2 inches of wood, 1 inch of stone, or a soundproof chamber.
Sound Shaping: This spell can be effected by sound based objects, such as megaphones (which extend the range to a shout but also make it a cone) or certain spells, at the DMs discretion. All potential sonic shenanigans must be ran by him.
At higher levels: For every spell slot above 4th, the damage increases by 1d6 per level
