At-will, standard action, circle 3, concentration, DC 19+; you create a swirling vortex of water at a point within 60 feet. The vortex is 10 feet in diameter and 20 feet tall, and pulls creatures toward its center. Any creature that starts its turn within 20 feet of the vortex must make a Strength save or be pulled to the vortex's edge. A creature that starts its turn inside the vortex must make a Strength save or take medium bludgeoning damage and be restrained. On a successful save, the creature takes half damage and can swim out (using its full movement).

  • DC +2: increase the vortex's radius of pull by 10 feet (stackable).
  • DC +4: the vortex also creates a localized undertow; creatures at the bottom are pulled underwater and must hold their breath.
