Drought

8th-level transmutation

Casting Time:10 minutes

Range:Self (5-miles radius)

Components:V, S, M (dust the bed of a dry body of water)

Duration:Concentration, up to 24 hours

You cause all exposed water sources to ebb away and dry up. All bodies of water that you can see when you cast the spell have their depth lowered by 30 feet, to a minimum depth of a few inches. For the duration, it is always clear with no precipitation. Saving throws to resist the effects of thirst and heat are at disadvantage.

After 24 hours, ordinary, nonmagical plants die. Creatures that do not eat or drink are unaffected.

If you cast this spell over 8 hours, you can reduce the range to a 1-mile radius but make the duration 1 year.
