Dictum

Any nonlawful creature within the area who hears the dictum suffers the following ill effects, including yourself, based on their number of CR or hit dice (whichever is lower) relative to your caster level.

The effects are cumulative and concurrent. No saving throw is allowed against these effects.

Deafened: The creature is deafened for 1d4 rounds.

Slowed: The creature is slowed, as by the slow spell, for 2d4 rounds.

Petrified: The creature is petrified for 1d10 minutes.

Killed: Living creatures die. Undead creatures are destroyed.

Furthermore, if you are on your home plane when you cast this spell, nonlawful creatures from other planes within the area are instantly banished back to their home planes. Creatures so banished cannot return for at least 24 hours. This effect takes place regardless of whether the creatures hear the dictum. The banishment effect allows a Wisdom save (at a –4 penalty) to negate.

Creatures whose HD exceed your caster level are unaffected by the dictum.
