Short DescriptionKills subject and destroys remains.

FocusA special holy (or unholy) symbol of silver marked with verses of anathema (cost 500 gp).

DescriptionThis spell instantly slays the subject and consumes its remains (but not its equipment and possessions) utterly. If the target's Fortitude saving throw succeeds, it instead takes 10d6 points of damage. The only way to restore life to a character who has failed to save against this spell is to use true resurrection, a carefully worded wish spell followed by resurrection, or miracle.
