Summon Cherubim

9th-level conjuration

"Blessed are you who look upon the Cherubim,"
Daniel 3:55

Casting Time: Magic action

Range: 30 feet

Components: V, S, M (a piece of parchment or other material onto which is inscribed the true name of a Cherubim)

Duration: Instantaneous

You call out the true name of one of the guardians of the heavenly throne. All creatures (including you) within 120 feet take 2d6 thunder damage as the fabric of reality is torn asunder with a thunderous noise. A cherubim steps through this portal, appearing in a space you can see within range. The cherubim disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when it decides to return to the heavenly realm.

The cherubim is obedient to the will of God alone, and is under no compulsion to behave in any particular way. You may respectfully request the cherubim's aid, but it is not obliged to help you.

Cherubim may agree to answer a question or questions, deliver a message, or enter combat against a demon. The cherubim have existed since before the creation of the world, and thus possess near infinite knowledge. However, a Cherubim will not share knowledge that could be used for selfish gain or evil intent. A cherubim will also not commit any act that it perceives to be contrary to the will of God. If you are rude to the cherubim, or if it deems your request to be against the will of God, there is an equal chance that it will either disappear or attempt to strike you down.
