As an action, the epic cleric presents their holy symbol and evokes healing energy that restore 105 hit points.

The epic cleric can use an action to innately cast  conjure celestial  without the need for concentration, summoning a celestial of a challenge rating 7 or less. \n'b'  Prestige . Commoners and other NPCs recognize the epic cleric or at the very least know their name, and they are treated as an equal (or nearly as much) by empresses, monarchs, and other heads of state. Even rival religions seek the epic cleric out for sermons or important observances. They have access to everything but the most sacred relics and texts kept by religious orders that are not hostile to them, and advantage on  Charisma  checks made against their clergy members. \n'b'  Spellcasting . The epic cleric is a 23rd-level spellcaster that uses  Wisdom  as their spellcasting ability (spell save DC 20; +12 to hit with spell attacks). They have the following spells prepared:\n'b'\n'b'\n'b'  Cantrips :  guidance ,  mending ,  resistance ,  sacred flame  (extra damage die), spare the dying,  thaumaturgy  \n'b'  1st-level (4 slots) :  bless ,  cure wounds ,  detect magic ,  divine favor ,  guiding bolt ,  healing word ,  protection from evil and good ,  shield of faith  \n'b'  2nd-level (4 slots) :  aid ,  augury ,  enhance ability ,  lesser restoration ,  magic weapon ,  silence ,  spiritual weapon  \n'b'  3rd-level (4 slots) :  beacon of hope ,  dispel magic ,  mass healing word ,  protection from energy ,  revivify ,  sending ,  spirit guardians ,  tongues  \n'b'  4th-level (4 slots) :  death ward ,  divination ,  freedom of movement ,  greater restoration , guardian of faith,  locate creature ,  stoneskin  \n'b'  5th-level (3 slots) : commune,  dispel evil and good ,  flame strike ,  greater restoration ,  hold monster ,  mass cure wounds , planar blinding,  raise dead  \n'b'  6th-level (2 slots) :  blade barrier ,  heal ,  true seeing  \n'b'  7th-level (2 slots) :  divine word ,  fire storm ,  regenerate  \n'b'  8th-level (2 slots) :  antimagic field ,  holy aura  \n'b'  9th-level (1 slot) :  true resurrection  \n'b'\n'b'  Stonecunning .

Melee Weapon Attack : +12 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.  Hit : 9 (1d8+5) magical bludgeoning damage plus 5 (2d4) radiant damage. \n'b'\n'b' ABOUT \n'b' The only thing keeping the epic cleric from having as much impact on the world as the god they worship is their humility-they are wielders of magic of the highest order, able to bring mortals back from the dead and sunder the very firmament with fire. Reaching such dizzying heights of divine power has strongly reaffirmed epic cleric\xe2\x80\x99s faith, instilling greater devotion and recognition from the god they worship. Indeed reverence is integral to their life and they never fail to show obeisance, make prayers, and bless their deity whenever they triumph. The cleric\xe2\x80\x99s victories have certainly inspired many adherents to their religion and they know that no amount of proselytizing can hope to convert so many believers. More legendary deeds are what the epic cleric knows will bring the most worshippers to the faith. \n'b'  New Duties . There are few if any worshipers of an epic cleric\xe2\x80\x99s god that are as powerful as they are, and with that great power comes great responsibility. The deity that empowers the epic cleric puts more excessive demands upon their servant-as an emissary to other gods, to oversee the implementation of divine works, to retrieve sacred relics protected by enemies of the most terrible nature. \n'b'  New Miracles . The business of divine entities requires faith to be rewarded-and that is often the work of the epic cleric to realize. Other deities have agents at work upon the world and that must be opposed, and even if their god intends to intervene directly the epic cleric is oft called upon as a reserve measure lest godly trickery interfere. New Revelations. While all the answers to life\xe2\x80\x99s questions may ultimately reside in the doctrine of their faith, the epic cleric knows that it is through the interpretation of sacred dogma and experience of living that the mysteries of existence are revealed. It is imperative for the epic cleric to seek out these truths, refining the meaning of each by testing each in realms far from the reach of most mortals.'
