Ray of Corruption

You unleash a sickly gray beam of toxic spores at your target. Make a spell attack against the target. If you hit a non-magical object that's made of organic material (such as a tree, wooden house, or massive skull), it melts away into a foul-smelling sludge. A single casting can destroy no more than a 10-foot cube of matter. If you hit a creature, it takes 6d12 poison damage and 6d12 spirit damage with a basic Fortitude save. If you critically hit, the target gets a result one degree of success worse than the outcome of its Fortitude save. **Critical Success** The target is unaffected. **Success** The target takes half damage. **Failure** The target takes full damage. Fungal tendrils swiftly digest the body and reduce it to sludge—the target takes 2d12 persistent acid damage. **Critical Failure** As failure, but the target takes double damage, plus 4d12 persistent acid damage. Heightened (+1) The poison damage and spirit damage each increase by 1d12.
