You draw upon forbidden, cannibalistic magic to weaponize your own physical form. When you cast this spell, you choose a portion of your body to sever and hurl as an explosive catalyst. You take unavoidable necrotic damage based on the sacrifice, and the severed part detonates at a point you choose within range.
Each creature in the area of effect must make a Dexterity saving throw, taking full Force damage on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one.
You must use a spell slot equal to or greater than the minimum required for your chosen sacrifice. If you choose to sacrifice Hair or Nails, you may cast this spell without expending a spell slot.
| Sacrifice | Min. Slot | Blast Radius | Target Damage | Self-Damage | Lingering Penalty (Until Regenerated) |
| Hair / Nails | Doesn't Expend Spell Slot | 5-foot sphere | 2d6 Force | 1 HP | Purely cosmetic (baldness, missing nails). |
| Tooth / Digit | 1st | 10-foot sphere | 4d6 Force | 1d6 Necrotic | Disadvantage on Sleight of Hand (finger) or Acrobatics (toe). |
| Eye / Ear | 2nd | 20-foot sphere | 8d8 Force | 2d10 Necrotic | Disadvantage on sight/sound Perception and ranged attack rolls. |
| Hand / Foot | 3rd | 30-foot sphere | 10d8 Force | 4d10 Necrotic | Speed reduced by 10 ft (foot) or inability to hold two-handed items (hand). |
| Entire Limb | 4th | 40-foot sphere | 14d8 Force | 8d10 Necrotic | Speed halved (leg) or loss of an arm. |
| Total Annihilation | 5th | 100-foot sphere | 20d10 Force | Character Death | You explode. You can only be revived by True Resurrection or Wish. |
* - (A piece of the caster's own body, which is consumed in the blast)
"You speak ancient, guttural goblin syllables, gripping the flesh you intend to offer. The moment your magic takes hold, the tissue begins to thrum with a sickening, violent heat. The limb illuminates from the inside out, glowing a deep, furious dark red like a dying star trapped beneath the skin. The flesh rapidly expands, blistering and pulling taut as the volatile energy reaches critical mass. With a wet tear of muscle and a spray of crimson, you rip the swollen, pulsing mass from your body and hurl it. It hits the ground with a heavy thud, lingering for a fraction of a second, before detonating in a cataclysmic shockwave of roaring force and vaporized blood."
