*5th-level, Evocation*
- **Casting time:** 1 Action
- **Range:** Self (30-foot Emanation)
- **Components:** V
- **Duration:** Instantaneous
Destructive energy ripples outward from you in a 30-foot [Emanation](/Rules/Source/variant-rules/emanation-area-of-effect-xphb.md). Each creature you choose in the [Emanation](/Rules/Source/variant-rules/emanation-area-of-effect-xphb.md) makes a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a target takes `dice:5d6|noform|noparens|avg` (`5d6`) Thunder damage and `dice:5d6|noform|noparens|avg` (`5d6`) Radiant or Necrotic damage (your choice) and has the [Prone](/Rules/Source/conditions.md#Prone) condition. On a successful save, a target takes half as much damage only.
**Classes**: [Paladin](/Rules/Source/lists/list-spells-classes-paladin.md)
