looking for an evil spell

[Donkey Shot]

I am looking for an area spell that converts any non lethal damage to lethal damage instead.

Is there such a spell? 3PP or 3.5 will be fine, too.

Please advice.

Hm... I'm not sure there is one. I know of a spell that does the opposite - Ablative Barrier. But as far as what you're looking for, I don't think it really exists.

Thanks anyway for your help and time.

You can attempt to create such a spell, if your GM would allow. Although I would make it transform existing non-lethal damage into the lethal one, not converting the nonlethal damage into lethal as it's being dealt. That way, the creatures that are immune to nonlethal damage are not hurt by the spell, and that's better from the balance point of view; some creatures are designed to be able to ignore certain conditions that would deal nonlethal damage, and if they are suddenly being hurt by them it may beasily become game-breaking.

As I said on your other thread, this kind of spell probably doesn't exist, though I wouldn't put it past 3pp material. But at that point you're in the realm of GM fiat anyway. So why do you need justification for what you're gonna do anyway?

I am not looking for justification, I am looking for advice.

And since it seems such a spell does not exist, I need help to create such a spell (and that's why I opened the other thread).

Maybe in the "Book of Vile Darkness"?

Probably not, in BoVD the lowest tier spells inflict things like "Permanent Blindness via your eyes exploding out of your skull". Converting non-lethal to lethal damage is too low-grade for that book.

Touch of Mercy and the area version Hymn of Mercy (same link) do pretty much the exact opposite of what you are asking, Lethal to Non-Lethal. So if you were to create your own version, I would say start with that as the base and maybe add 1 level to it (so 6th level) for being non-standard.
