Doomsday Clock

The doomsday clock spell should not be cast lightly, the events leading to the need to cast this should be considered closely, it is not a means to an end, it is the end.

The caster declares "it is time" to start the casting

Both hands must be raised into the air, pointing upwards, the items required to cast the spell will dissolve instantly, the sacrificial part of the spell casting is lost at the time the words are spoken.

On the turn the caster completes all of the above requirements a ghostly clock face appears floating above them, the clock face can not be interacted with by any means, it is there to symbolise the casters intentions, a clock hand is shown in the position 5 seconds to midnight

To complete the casting, the casters turn after the words are spoken must only consist of the caster saying "five" subsequent full turns after this the caster must count backwards from five, the aim of which is to get to "one"

During the casting time the caster must maintain concerntrating on the casting, they can not choose to move, or perform ANY other action, bonus action or reaction

If a attack or effect is applied to the caster before the spell is completed, the caster must make a constitution saving throw of DC18, otherwise concentration is lost, in this event the clock face remains floating, the caster can choose to break the spell only in this event, from this point onwards the clock face follows the caster floating above them, showing everything able to see the choice they made, the caster can perform any action, bonus action and reaction, including movement as normal until they choose to continue the casting.

To continue the casting, the caster must sacrifice a 9th level spell other then this spell, and sacrifices the ability to rest until the spell casting is complete. This can be repeated until the casting is completed.

In the event of the casting being completed (the caster reaches the word "one") the clock strikes midnight, a loud clocktower bell noise reverberates from the clock.

The following effects are applied:

All living creatures on the plane the doomsday clock is formed age backwards rapidly (a rate of 1 year per round or 6 seconds)

Constructs and non living beings start to deconstruct or revert back to there original inanimate states

Any creatures deemed ageless are pushed away from the doomsday clock at a rate of 100 feet per round (6 seconds) heading towards the nearest edge of the plane the doomsday clock is cast on, they will be forced through solid objects such as walls, flora and fauna, and liquids with a unstoppable force

The plane itself which the doomsday clock is cast on begins to erode away at a rate of 1 mile per real time second, any structures, creatures, and items in an area of the plane which is eroding erode with the plane, to have never existed, any and all knowledge or recordings of anything eroding will be immidiatly removed from existance with the item/creature/building/plane

This spell ignores object perminancy, nothing is saved

The caster is lifted into the air in a perminant levitation, the above effects are not applied to the caster, they slowly start to rotate clockwise, the floating clock face floating above them.

The caster is faced with the souls of the creatures they have removed from existance, they form a circle around them, until the plane has completely eroded away leaving nothing but the caster and the souls of the "dammed"

Any NPC's or player characters caught in spells effect will now judge the caster.

If the casters intentions were pure and good/positively aligned and the players agree the doomsday curse is lifted, the clock is removed from existance and the caster is teleported to a plane of there choice with no negative effects applied.

If however

The casters intentions were of negative nature, the souls of the players characters judge the caster as not worthy, a small 5 meter square of the original plane eroded away returns, the caster is dropped with force onto this plane, the clock forever remains as a reminder of what the caster has done, all of the spells the caster had are removed and any ability to cast again is removed, all useful equipment is also removed, the caster never has to drink, eat or sleep ever again, no longer ages, and can never leave the plane they have been cast onto.
