🌑☀ ECLIPSE: SUNBREAKER’S REQUIEM
8th-level Evocation (Warlock, Sorcerer, Cleric optional by lore)
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self (60-foot radius)
Components: V, S, M (a scorched coin or shard of blackened glass)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You raise your focus to the sky as light fractures and the sun is swallowed by shadow. A black solar sphere forms above you, ringed by a burning corona of green-gold flame. For a moment, the battlefield is held in impossible twilight.
Then the world starts burning.
☀️ Primary Effect – Solar Eclipse Field
A 60-foot radius centered on you becomes the Eclipse Zone:
Enemies in the zone:
-
Take 6d10 radiant + 6d10 fire damage when the spell is cast
-
Take 4d10 fire or necrotic (your choice) at the start of their turns
-
Have disadvantage on attack rolls while in direct “eclipse light”
Allies of your choice in the zone:
-
Gain regeneration equal to your spellcasting modifier each turn
-
All weapon attacks deal +2d8 radiant or fire damage
-
Have advantage on fear & charm saves
The area is heavily obscured in a literal black sun, except within 10 feet of you, where you are wreathed in burning light.
🌑 Secondary Effect – The Sun Is Consumed
At the end of each of your turns, choose one:
-
SOLAR NOVA
A 20-foot burst at a chosen point in range
→ 8d8 radiant + knock prone -
UMBRA LASH
A shadow-fire chain leaps to 3 creatures
→ 6d8 fire + 6d8 necrotic -
TOTALITY (Once per casting)
Everything in a 30-ft radius must make a CON save
→ Fail: blinded + restrained for 1 round
→ Succeed: blinded until end of turn
💀 Paracausal Cost (The Real Flavor)
This is where it becomes Destiny-level.
When the spell ends, you must choose ONE cost:
-
Gain 1 level of exhaustion
-
Permanently change your eye/skin to an eerie gold/black mark
-
Lose the ability to regain spell slots on a short rest until next dawn
-
The Nine take notice — something will find you later
If you don’t choose, the DM chooses.
🔥 Visual
Picture this:
A jet-black sun in the sky.
Green-silver flames licking around it.
You floating slightly above the ground like a Solar Titan/Warlock hybrid.
Everything frozen in awed terror.
It is a super ability, not just a spell.
