### ***Description***

As you see the situation before you, you decide to trade most of your life force, into a giant ball of Soul Energy. Essence Bomb is charged by the caster for one to two rounds, and takes most of their health to deal it as damage to every target enveloped within the area of attack.

#### ***Benefits***

Below are the Essence Bomb's Benefits;

* ***Soul Energy:*** The Essence Bomb, depending upon how long it is concentrated on for, will deal at minimum half of the caster's health as damage to every target, or as much as 5 points away from the caster's maximum hit points.
* ***Ginormous Energy Sphere:*** Whether being charged on the ground, or in the air, whilst charging it, a large energy ball (can be any color) is suspended above the player.
* ***Maximum Distance:*** It can go a maximum distance of 300 ft.
* ***Size of the Energy Sphere:*** The energy ball is 10ft tall and wide (1 round charge), up to 20ft tall and wide (2 round charge). It will leave a 10ft-20ft deep circular crater in the ground where it hits.
* ***Save Throws:*** Any creature/target within the ball's energy will roll a Constitution Save Throw. If it was charged for 1 round, it has to be above 14, for 2 rounds, it has to be above 18. If succeeded, it deals half damage to that target, if failed, it does full damage to that target.
* ***Hold Your Hands High:*** Whilst concentrating on charging the Essence Bomb, the caster needs to hold their hands up, palms to the sky. When thrown, the caster must pull their arms back, and then throw them forward, launching the ball of energy.

#### ***Detriments***

Below are the Essence Bomb's Detriments;

* ***Concentration:*** For the first round it is cast, it requires the caster to succeed a Concentration (Intelligence Save Throw) roll above 10, and for the second, it requires a Concentration (Intelligence Save Throw) roll above 14. If failed, the ball will explode in the sky, dealing no damage to anything, but the caster will not regain the health lost whilst casting it.
* ***Health for Damage:*** If charged for one round, it will deal half of the caster's health as damage to every target, but will take away half of the caster's health. If charged for two rounds, it will deal 5 hit points away from the caster's max hit points, leaving the caster alive at 5hp.
* ***Aerial Strike:*** If charged for two rounds in the air, it will deal the maximum hit points of the caster as damage, but after thrown, the caster will fall to the ground, unconscious, and at 3 health. They will take a turn to be unconscious, but will wake up the next turn after.
* ***Cancelled:*** If hit at any time whilst concentrating on the Essence Bomb, the caster will fumble the attack, causing it to be cancelled. The ball will explode in the sky, dealing no damage to anything, but the caster will not regain the health lost whilst casting it.
* ***Overwhelming:*** If the damage the attack will do to the caster's health is too much, for example, they have less than 5 health when it's cast, the ball will do the maximum health as damage, but will put the caster's health at 0, and they will need to be bandaged, or healed.
