Gravity Nexus

This spell causes targeted object, creature or location to be gravity nexus, causing all unattached objects and creatures within it to 'fall' toward the gravity nexus and reaching the nexus before the end of the round. Those who are within 100 feet of the gravity nexus are allowed to make a Reflex save to secure themselves when the spell strikes, provided there's something for them to hold onto. Creatures who can fly or levitate can keep themselves from 'falling'. Those who fall towards the nexus will strike it and take damage as they would during a normal downward fall, creatures at the outer edge of the area effect will take more damage then those close to the nexus (unless another object comes crashing on them). The following chart shows the damage a character takes from objects in the surrounding he is in.

Gravity Nexus Damage Table

	Deep			Asteroid	Planet
Creature Target/In Area	Space*	Orbit*	Ring	Field	Bound
Gravity Nexus Target	17d6	18d6	20d6	25d6	25d6
Falling Targets	2d6 + falling	3d6 + falling	5d6 + falling	10d6 + falling	10d6 + falling
Targets not Falling	2d6	3d6	5d6	10d6	10d6

* DM should judge if sufficent number of objects exist that could cause this amount of damage.

    At the end of the spell duration, creatures will align with any other natural gravity in the area, possibly resulting in more falling damage. If creature was the target of the spell and the gravity nexus ends he or she then can make a strength check at DC 18 to break free of debris.
    If DM needs to adjudicate individual damage by falling objects, then use the following as a guideline: Objects from 1 to 10 pounds cause 1d6 damage, objects from 11 to 50 pounds cause 2d6 damage, objects from 51 to 100 pounds cause 3d6 damage, objects from 101 to 200 pounds cause 5d6, and finally and object 200 pounds or more in weight causes 10d6 damage.
    Material Components: An apple.
