Bigby's Clenched Fist
A giant hand appears and attacks the target. At each round the target will receive ((caster level / 10) + 1)d8 + 12 (maximum 5d8 + 12) pure damage, and is stunned for 1 round if a Will save is failed. Will Save: 10 + 8 (spell level) + Focus Feats (max 6) + caster ability modifier + 3 (bonus) VS Target Will Save against Spells. NOTE: if the save is passed, for that round the target won't be stunned, and the damage received will be halved. The debuff lasts for 5 + (caster level / 5) rounds. Doubled if extended.

How it works
- Bigby protection on the target's gear is taken straight off the DC, point for point.
- Each blow does eight-sided dice - one, and one more per ten caster levels - plus 12, as damage nothing reduces, and a failed Will save stuns for a round.
Where it comes from
Cleric domain: Magic (level 8).
