Flavor

The ground heaves and splits at the priest's invocation, toppling structures and swallowing those caught above.

Mechanics

Shakes the earth violently in a large radius (scaling with caster ) at a point within range for 1 ; the quake collapses structures, opens fissures (creatures may fall in/be buried, vs. spell), and knocks creatures prone. Devastating to buildings and large areas. Casting takes 1 . : a pinch of dirt, a bit of clay, and a small wooden fork, plus the holy symbol.
