Furthermore, if you are on your home plane when you cast this spell, nonchaotic extraplanar creatures within the area are instantly banished back to their home planes. Creatures so banished cannot return for at least 24 hours. This effect takes place regardless of whether the creatures hear the ''word of chaos. ''The banishment effect allows a [[SRD:Saving Throw|Will]] save (at a –4 penalty) to negate.

Creatures whose [[SRD:Hit Dice|HD]] exceed your [[SRD:Caster Level|caster level]] are unaffected by ''word of chaos.''
