Living Candle in Dungeons & Dragons 5e
L'Arsene's Ledger of Treasures and Trinkets
Living Candle
4-level Conjuration
You point at a creature you can see within range, causing a swirl of molten wax to surround the creature and gathering hair, clothes, and debris into a wick atop its head. The creature must make a Strength saving throw. On a failure, it takes 5d8 fire damage as it becomes restrained and encased within the wax until the spell ends, its wick lighting with righteous fire which sheds bright light for 30 feet and dim light for an additional 30 feet. On a success, the creature takes half as much damage and isn’t restrained.
At the end of each of its turns, a restrained creature takes 2d8 fire damage. The restrained creature, or a creature within 5 feet of it, can use its action to make a Strength check against your spell save DC, freeing the restrained creature and ending the spell on a success.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the initial and ongoing damage both increase by 1d8 for each slot level above 4th.
