Over the next 48 hours, that creature will begin showing the effects of insanity: the GM can roll first on the short-term insanity table, then the long-term table, then the indefinite-length table (Dungeon Master’s Guide, p.258) to determine the individual effects.

After one week, the creature must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a success, the creature regains sanity. On a failure, it takes 3d6 psychic damage and its hit point total is reduced by that amount, and it remains insane for another week. At the end of that week, it must make another saving throw.

This continues until the creature succeeds a saving throw or its hit point total is reduced to 0 hit points (at which case it dies).

After this creature has been infected for 6 hours, it has the potential to spread the madness through physical, skin-to-skin contact.

Each creature it touches must make a Wisdom saving throw or contract the madness.

This spell continues for as long as you chant, up to 1 minute.

You cast this spell on a vial of water, and then immediately cast another spell on the vial. The second spell must be of 3rd level or lower and must have a range of Self or Touch.

Duration: 1 minute

You place a circlet on your head or the head of an ally and the circlet begins to glow.

The circlet takes one of three forms:

  • Crown of Brilliance. Your circlet glows with blazing golden light. If in battle, your opponents in melee combat must make a Constitution saving throw or be blinded for 1 minute. Even if the save is successful, the opponent will be at disadvantage to attack you due to the brilliant light emanating from you. Creatures that have the trait Sunlight Sensitivity or Sunlight Hypersensitivity must make an additional Constitution saving throw, at disadvantage if they failed the first one. If they fail, they are also frightened of you for 1 minute. Finally, undead and fiends take 2d6 radiant damage each time they end their turn within 10 feet of you.
  • Crown of Flames. Your circlet erupts with holy fire. All aberrations, fey, fiends, and undead with evil alignment within 10 feet of you must make a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 4d8 fire damage and 4d8 radiant damage on a failed saving throw, or half as much on a successful one.
  • Crown of Glory. Your circlet glows with beautiful rainbow light, inspiring awe in lesser creatures. All creatures with 50 or fewer hit points that are within 30 feet of you are automatically incapacitated for 1 minute.

Creatures with 50-100 hit points may make a Wisdom saving throw or be incapacitate for 1 minute. Creatures with more than 100 hit points are immune.

Furthermore, when you speak, your words form a suggestion, as per the spell. All creatures who are within 30 feet of you who are incapacitated must make a Wisdom saving throw or be charmed by you for up to 8 hours and will follow your suggestion to the best of its ability, provided that the suggestion is reasonable and non-dangerous.

Crystalbrittle

9th-level transmutation

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: Touch

Components: V, S

Duration: Instantaneous

You touch a metal object of , whether as soft as gold or as hard as adamantine, to become permanently as fragile as glass. You can affect up to 1,000 pounds of metal. If the object is being held or worn by a creature, that creature may make a Charisma saving throw to negate this spell. If the item is magical, the creature has advantage on that roll.

The effects of this spell cannot be reversed by anything short of a wish.

Curse of Lycanthropy

6th-level transmutation

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: Touch

Components: V, S, M (a drop of blood from a true lycanthrope)

Duration: Instantaneous

You touch a humanoid and turn it into an infected lycanthrope. The target may make a Constitution saving throw to avoid this spell.

The exact species of lycanthrope depends on the nature and temperament of your target.

If your target fails its saving throw, then on the next full moon, it will transform each night of the three nights of the full moon. On the day after the third night, the subject may make another saving throw, with disadvantage unless the target failed to kill anything during those three nights.

This spell continues until the target succeeds at three saving throws, although these saves do not need to be consecutive. A remove curse allows for an additional saving throw, or grants advantage on a monthly saving throw. A greater restoration removes this curse immediately.

Curse Tablet

3rd-level necromancy (ritual)

Casting Time: 10 minutes

Range: 30 feet

Components: V, S, M (a lead tablet)

Duration: 1 week

You inscribe your victim’s name on a lead tablet, invoke the spirits of the dead, and place the tablet in an occupied tomb.

Each midnight thereafter, your victim must succeed at a Wisdom saving throw.

Failure means the subject suffers horrifying nightmares of his own death. When the target wakes up, he will have taken a level of exhaustion that cannot be removed until he gets an undisturbed night’s rest. He will also take 1d10 psychic damage. The levels of exhaustion are cumulative. If the target succeeds on the saving throw, he is unaffected that night.

If your target succeeds at three saving throws in a row, the curse is broken and the spell ends. If the curse tablet, which radiates both magic and evil, is found and destroyed, this also breaks the curse, but it will inflict 1d10 psychic damage to the target as well.

Because the curse is laid upon the tablet and not directly on the target, a remove curse spell will not end the curse. It will, however, give the target advantage on the next night’s saving throw.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the spell lasts an additional two days per spell slot above 3rd level.

Cursed Image

Casting Time: 1 hour

Range: 1 mile

  • Wounding. You stab or pummel the effigy. The target may attempt to avoid taking damage by making a Constitution saving throw. The target takes 3d10 force damage on a failed saving throw, or half as much damage on a successful one.

If you incorporate a bit of hair, skin, blood, nail clipping, etc., your target is at disadvantage on his attempts to escape and his saving throw.

You call forth a whirlwind of great strength, which forms beneath your feet in the shape of a chariot.

You control the chariot’s horizontal and vertical movements mentally. You can cross rivers, chasms, and so forth, floating level with the last solid surface it touched until reaching solid ground again, at which point you can alter its altitude.

Any nonmagical missile lighter than a boulder aimed at the chariot is blown aside.

Melee attacks aimed in or out of the chariot are at disadvantage; melee attacks from one rider to another are unaffected. The chariot itself is immune to physical attack.

The chariot can be used as a weapon by ramming it into a target. Each creature of Large size or smaller that is outside of the chariot and that touches the chariot must make a Strength saving throw at disadvantage. On a failure, the creature takes 8d10 bludgeoning damage and is flung in a random direction and knocked prone. If the target hit a solid object, such as a wall or floor, it takes 1d6 bludgeoning damage for every 10 feet it was thrown.

On a hit, the whip inflicts 3d8 bludgeoning damage and wraps around the target, grappling it (escape DC is equal to your spell save DC). Until this grapple ends, the target is restrained and you cannot use the darkbolt on another target. In addition, at the start of each of the target’s turns, the darkbolt squeezes, causing an additional 3d8 bludgeoning damage.

On a failed save, a creature suffers an effect based on its current hit points:

  • 50 hit points or fewer: 4d6 necrotic damage.
  • 30 hit points or fewer: 8d6 necrotic damage and become blinded for 1 minute.

Should that target die due to combat, spell, or accident, the target’s remains are instantly transported back to the sanctuary where you cast this spell and the creature will be brought back to life, whole and intact—any missing limbs will be restored and all conditions and enchantments will be removed.

The opponent’s hit point maximum is reduced by an amount equal to the amount of radiant damage taken, and you regain hit points equal to that amount. The reduction lasts until your opponent finishes a short or long rest. The opponent dies if this effect reduces its hit point maximum to 0.

10-18 Success. There is a 50% chance that it will not pass the trait on to its offspring, however.

Thereafter, the target is relentless stalked by the hound. It never comes closer than 10 feet or farther than 300 feet from the target, but it fills the target with an unshakable premonition of death. While haunted by the hound, the target is at disadvantage on all saving throws to avoid being frightened. The hound, despite its fear-inspiring appearance, cannot attack and cannot be attacked.

Then it sinks back into the ground and vanishes, leaving the creature it swallowed trapped in the ground.

Components: V, S, M (a tiny tin gong or cymbal)

Duration: 1 minute

You pick one creature you can see within range. For that creature, every sound is amplified and reverberates with distressing loudness. While this spell is in effect, the creature cannot use the Perception skill to hear noises, has disadvantage on all attack rolls and ability checks, and the creature must make a Wisdom saving throw.

Electric Bow

5th-level evocation

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: Self

Components: V, S, M (the tail feathers of a quail, tied together with a bowstring)

Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes

You can only fire the missiles created by the spell with this bow. These missiles, regardless of whether it is an arrow or a quarrel, have a range of 120/500 and do 2d10 + your spell attack modifier in lightning damage.

The bow lasts for as long as you concentrate on it or until you run out of missiles.

Effulgent Epuration

9th-level abjuration

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: 90 feet

Components: V, S

Duration: 1 hour

You create a dozen floating silver spheres, each of which has the ability to absorb a single offensive spell. When you create them, and on subsequent rounds, you may use a bonus action to move the group of spheres up to 60 feet.

When a hostile spell is aimed at you or another creature, one sphere that is within 10 feet of the target will absorb the magic. It will then wink out of existence, taking the spell energy with it.

The spheres do not negate hostile magic that was already in the area, nor do they absorb magic from non-hostile damaging spells (such as a wall of fire). The spheres do not negate the use of magic items, unless the item uses a charge to cast a spell—it will absorb a magic missile cast by a wand of magic missiles but will not protect someone from the necrotic damage inflicted by a sword of life stealing.

Glamer

1st-level illusion

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: Touch

Components: V, S, M (a pinch of ruby dust and a pinch of chalk dust)

Rather, for the positive version, makes the target’s eyes appear to sparkle, their skin clearer and smoother, their teeth straighter and whiter, and their hair thicker and more lustrous; or for the negative version, makes the person seem lackluster and unkempt. An unwilling target may make a Wisdom saving throw to resist.

While the positive version of this spell is active, the target has advantage on all Charisma ability checks designed to illicit a positive reaction. While the negative version of this spell is active, the target has disadvantage on all Charisma ability checks.

This does not reveal the source of the emotion or any other information about it. Only one emotion (the most prominent one the target is experiencing) per casting of the spell is revealed.

A creature that is aware that you are or might be attempting to contact its mind may attempt to make an Intelligence saving throw to resist; otherwise, there is no saving throw.

Only humanoids, giants, beasts, monstrosities, and dragons with an Intelligence of 2 or higher can be affected with this spell.

Duration: Permanent

You render one message of 25 words or less permanently unreadable by everyone save you, one other specific creature named when you cast the spell, and anyone named in the message.

Endless Dance

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: Self (100-foot radius)

Components: V, S

After the first minute, the creature begins taking 1d8 force damage each round until the spell ends or, the creature successfully makes a saving throw, or the creature dies.

Energy Drain

9th-level necromancy

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: Touch

Components: V, S, M (a pinch of dust from a slain vampire)

Duration: Instantaneous

You open a channel between the place where you stand and the Negative Plane, using yourself as a conduit. You must then touch another living creature. That creature permanently has its Strength and Constitution permanently reduced by 1d4 each and takes 6d10 necrotic damage. If this brings that creature to 0 hit points, it dies and rises as a specter in 1d4 hours.

Each time you cast this spell, you must roll 1d20. If you roll a 1, your connection to the Negative Plane is too strong and you lose the same amount of Strength, Constitution, and hit points.

Enervation

4th-level necromancy

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: 100 feet

Components: V, S

Duration: 6 hours

A black beam of enervating energy springs from your finger towards a creature within range. Make a ranged spell attack against the target. On a hit, the target gains 1d4+1 levels of exhaustion, it takes 2d10 necrotic damage, and its hit points are reduced by that amount. If the target already has one or more levels of exhaustion, this spell cannot take him past the fifth level. If the hit point reduction takes the target to 0 hit points, it dies. This exhaustion and hit point reduction last for 6 hours or until the target takes a long rest.

You point to one Large or smaller creature within range that is standing on natural, unworked earth, sand, rock, or a similar material (or on vegetation that is on top of such a material). A block of solid stone rises out of the ground and engulfs the target within.

The target may make a Dexterity saving throw to resist. For the duration of the spell, the target is subjected to the petrified condition. If the creature has the ability to pass through solid stone and does not need to activate that ability (such as if the creature is naturally immaterial), then it cannot be affected by this spell. When the spell expires, the stone crumbles away, leaving the engulfed target unharmed.

Erase

1st-level transmutation

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: 60 feet

Components: V, S

Duration: Instantaneous

You magically remove one set of writings you can see, up to one page’s worth at a time. This automatically removes nonmagical writings. If you are attempting to remove magical writing, including spells such as glyph of warding or symbol, you must make an ability check using your spellcasting ability. The DC equals 10 + the spell’s level.

On a successful check, the writing is erased.

This spell does not work on illusory writing, such as that produced by illusory script, as that writing isn’t real.

Quills

Conjuration cantrip

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: 30 feet

Components: V, S, M (a porcupine quill)

Duration: 1 minute

You conjure and throw 2d4 long quills, which unerringly strike one or two chosen targets within range, even getting in between the chinks in the target’s armor. Each does 1 point of piercing damage each, for each of three rounds, and remains in the wound.

The target may use a bonus action to yank a quill out, but that inflicts an additional 1 point of damage. Otherwise, the quills vanish in 10 minutes.

The number of quills you create increases by 2d4 when you reach 5th level (4d4), 11th level (6d4) and 17th level (8d4)

Estate Transference

9th-level conjuration (ritual)

Casting Time: 1 hour

Range: Self (up to a 20-square-mile radius sphere)

Components: V, S, M (a magical item used to control elementals of the appropriate kind, which must be placed in the center of the area to be affected and remain there permanently, and a large number of bricks made of elemental matter.

Duration: Permanent.

You mark out a large area of land by surrounding it with bricks made out of the solidified material from one of the elemental planes (placed no more than five feet apart and/or three feet underground), and in the center of that area, you place the elemental-controlling item (which must be of the same element as the bricks). Then, when you cast this spell, a sphere containing all the land, water, and air you marked is permanently transferred to that plane, leaving nothing behind but a semicircular hole in the ground.

You create a pocket of Prime Material matter within that elemental plane. The water and air are self-renewing, and the temperature and weather conditions of your pocket are identical to the way they were when you cast this spell.

The heart of this spell is in the elemental-controlling item. If this item is disturbed in any way, the spell immediately fails and the energies of the elemental plane flood into the protected area.

Everfull Quiver

4th-level conjuration

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: Touch

Components: V, S

Duration: 1 minute

You enchant a quiver that contains at least two arrows. Each round for the next minute, you withdraw up to two arrows without depleting the total number of arrows in the quiver.

If more than two arrows are withdrawn in a single round, or if anyone other than you draws an arrow, the spell ends. You must use an arrow the same round you draw it; otherwise, it fades into nothingness.

This spell can only create nonmagical arrows.

Evolve

8th-level transmutation (ritual)

Casting Time: 1 hour

Range: Touch

Components: V, S, M (a bit of your hair or blood, a miniature hand-tool of any kind, and a pearl worth 500 gp, which is consumed in the casting of this spell)

Duration: Instantaneous

You touch a beast, plant, or monstrosity with an Intelligence of 1 to 5 that has no magical abilities such as innate spellcasting.

That creature must then make a Constitution saving throw, with disadvantage if it is of the same “type” (such as if you are a mammal attempting to affect another mammal) as you and with advantage if it is radically different from you (such as if you are a mammal attempting to affect a crustacean or a plant). If the creature succeeds on its saving throw, the spell is negated.

If the creature fails on its saving throw, then over the course of the next 24 hours, it slowly “evolves” into an anthropomorphic being.

The creature’s type becomes humanoid. If the creature had four or more legs, its forelimbs become arms and hands and it walks on its hind legs. A creature with no limbs or with wings instead of forelimbs has a 50% chance of growing arms. If it doesn’t grow arms, it gains another method of manipulating objects, such as prehensile feet or tail.

A Tiny creature becomes Small and its hit die type changes to d6. A Huge creature shrinks to Large and its hit die type becomes d10 (Gargantuan creatures cannot be affected by this spell). Otherwise, the creature retains its size and hit die type. Its Intelligence increases by +8. Attributes that are 5 or lower increase by 2 each change to 7, and attributes higher than 20 become 20. If the creature previously was unaligned, its alignment becomes neutral, neutral good, or neutral evil, depending on its general disposition and how it has been treated prior to this event.

This change cannot be reversed save by casting wish.

This creature will breed true with other creatures of this type (i.e., other creatures of its original species that you cast evolve on), and has a 50% chance of being able to breed true with a creature of its original type or with a humanoid.

Exorcism

2nd-level abjuration (ritual)

Casting Time: 1 hour

Range: 10 feet

Components: V, S, M (a silver bell, a book of prayers, and a blessed candle that must remain lit throughout the ritual)

Duration: Instantaneous

You attempt to get rid of an evil spirit, fiend, ghost, or other such creature that is possessing a living creature.

At the spell’s completion, the spirit must make a saving throw using the higher of its Constitution, Wisdom, or Charisma.

On a success, nothing happens and the exorcism fails. On a failure, the creature takes 2d6 psychic damage and must make a second saving throw. If that throw succeeds, its hit point total is reduced by 2d6 and the attribute it used to make the saving throw is reduced by 1d4-1, and it cannot regain those hit points or attribute points for 1 week, but it remains within the body. You cannot attempt to exorcise it again until you have taken a short or long rest. On a failure, the spirit is exorcised.

Regardless of the outcome, you take 1d4 levels of exhaustion and 2d6 psychic damage.

At Higher Levels. If you cast this spell with a 5th-level or higher spell slot, the spirit rolls all saving throws at disadvantage.

You point to a fire of any size within range and change it so that it becomes cold, not hot. For the duration of the spell, the flames burn clear blue. The fire must be one that burns for at least one minute, not one with an instantaneous duration (such as a fireball spell). This spell produces one of three effects:

  • Cool Flame. This removes all heat from the flame. It still burns fuel and produces light but it causes no damage if touched.
  • Cold Flame. This alters the flame so it does cold damage instead of fire damage.
  • Chilled Flame. You make a ranged spell attack against one fire elemental or creature that is currently aflame due to magical ability (not one that has been set on fire in order to hurt it). On a hit, it inflicts 2d10 cold damage to that creature.

On a failure, the target’s mind is “short-circuited” and it loses a number of spells equal to your level, starting with 1st-level spells and moving on to more powerful spells. That target will not be able to cast those spells until it has had a chance to reprepare them.

Targets that have innate spellcasting abilities lose the ability to cast that number of spells until it takes a short or long rest.

While this spell is in effect, you have resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage, resistance to paralysis and petrifaction, and are immune to exhaustion. Furthermore, you don’t bleed and you age half as quickly as normal. However, you also lose the ability to heal naturally; you can only heal through magical means.

When this spell ends, either after a year or through other means, it instantly replaces the stone heart in your chest. If at any time your real heart is destroyed, you die instantly. Because of this, it is wise to place your heart somewhere very safe. The stone heart may be reused for this spell.

Heartseeker

Casting Time: 10 minutes

Range: Touch

Components: V, S

Duration: 6 hours

The creature takes 6d6 necrotic damage on a failed roll, or half as much damage on a successful one.

If that creature follows, it will point in your direction and lead the creature in the most direct route to you. It will stay about 10 feet ahead of the creature and will pause to let it catch up, but it doesn’t understand concepts such as safety.

If the subject decides not to follow it, the hand will return to you and hover, palm-up, to indicate failure. It will then vanish.

While hibernating, the creature’s need for food, water, and oxygen is reduced by a factor of 10. The creature can be awakened for a brief time but will go back to sleep once it is no longer needed. At the end of the duration, the creature will wake up very hungry and thirsty. If you are not the one in hibernation, you may use your action to dismiss the spell.

When you finish casting the spell, each creature must make a Constitution saving throw. If either of these rolls are successful, the spell fails.

If both creatures fail their saving throws, then over the course of the next 24 hours, the creatures begin to mutate and join together, taking on characteristics of both “parent” creatures. The GM should roll a d20.

Roll Result
1-5 Success. The resulting creature looks more or less like a combination of its two original forms.

7 Imperfect Melding. The two creatures have joined together in a “tauric” fashion—half one creature and half the other.

9 Dominance. The creature looks mostly like one of its original forms with only hints of the original creature.
10 Death. While it looks like the desired creature, something went horribly wrong with the transformation and it takes 15d10+20 necrotic damage. If it is still alive, it may be able to be nursed back to health.

The resultant creature’s attributes, abilities, and attacks should be determined by the GM, using the original creatures’ attributes as a guideline.

If the body you are in drops to 0 hit points, the possession ends and you must make a Charisma saving throw. You take 6d6 psychic damage on a failed saving throw, or half as much on a successful one. You may choose to end the possession at any time.

A target is immune to your attempts to possess it for 24 hours after succeeding on the saving throw or the possession ends.

Casting Time: 1 minute

Range: Touch

Components: V, S, M (a pinch of salt)

Duration: 1 week

Up to 250 pounds of raw food will remain perfectly preserved for one week. This spell does not work on cooked food, nor does it prevent the food from being eaten during this time; it merely keeps it from rotting or going moldy.

This spell can also be used to preserve a corpse in preparation for being raised; a week of preservation counts only as one day for the purposes of the raise dead spell.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, you can preserve an additional 50 pounds for each slot level above 2nd.

Components: V, S, M (an empty ink well, a feather pen, and a surface on which to write)

Duration: Until dispelled

You turn one creature or object in range that you can see into a full-color, two-dimensional image on the surface you have provided. The creature or object is reduced to 12:1 scale; it must be able to fit on the writing surface in its reduced form for the spell to work. An unwilling creature may make a Charisma saving throw to avoid the effect.

You decide whether the creature is to remain animate (in which case, it counts as restrained, although it still can move slowly about its canvas in a stilted manner), or if it to become a still picture. If you choose to allow it to remain animate, it can see and hear, but cannot speak, attack, or cast spells. If you choose for the creature to become a still picture, the creature is put in stasis. In both cases, the creature does not age, eat, drink, sleep, or breathe. Inanimate objects remain in the picture indefinitely.

A trapped creature may make a new saving throw each day. On a success, this effect ends and the creature is freed. A dispel magic, remove curse, or wish spell can also end this effect.

If you touch another creature while casting this spell, then the prophecy will be about an event that directly concerns that creature.

If you attempt to cast this spell more than once about a single event, you will receive the same visions.

At Higher Levels. If you cast this spell using an 8th- or 9th-level spell slot, you can attempt to divine a prophecy that concerns an area as large as a kingdom. The GM will secretly roll a d10.

The event is played back perfectly—you see, hear, smell, and feel the events perfectly.

The event that is replayed for you is done so in real-time, so the replay takes as long to complete as the original event, to a maximum of one hour.

Your clothing and equipment enlarge with you and your weapons do an additional 1d4 damage, plus your new Strength modifier. You also gain advantage on Strength checks and Strength saving throws.

You become outlined in a faint but mesmerizing aura, which gives you the ability to make powerful commands. You can magically influence up to twelve creatures of your choice that you can see within range and that can hear and understand you. Creatures that can’t be charmed are immune to this effect.
