-Jonthan Kindling-
1st-level enchantment (ritual)
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: touch
Components: V, S, M (A piece of Jonthan root worth at least 5 silver which the spell consumes)
Duration: A short rest or one long rest.
Sleep is something needed by most creatures. While that need is great many times sleep eludes us. You touch one willing creature then summon the magics of the Sleeping Tree to help those gain a restful sleep. The oils of the root waft into the air becoming a softly glowing vapor which swirls around the head of the touched creature. As the vapor flows into the eyes of the touched creature choose short rest or long rest.
If short rest is chosen, the creature sleeps for exactly 30 minutes. If the sleep is not interrupted by any means they recover the max amount of Hit Points when spending a Hit Dice. If the creature has only 1 rank of Exhaustion, it is also cured. If the sleep is interrupted for any reason, they recover no Hit Points from spent Hit Dice.
If long rest is chosen, the creature sleeps for exactly 8 hours. If the sleep is not interrupted by any means they recover up to 3 levels of Exhaustion and may make a Saving Throw vs any one ongoing ailment that is the equivalent of a spell equal to or lower than the level this spell was cast at. If the sleep is interrupted for any reason, they do not gain the benefits of a long rest.
At Higher Levels. Increase the Saving Throw vs being woken up by 1 when cast at 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th level.

Before the demonic invasion there were stories of people being unable to move due to demons sitting on them as they awoke. While some of those stories are true others have been proven false. Regardless of the reason, mortals are not meant to live within the realm of sleep and the mortal realm at the same time. As part of this spell, you sprinkle sand over the eyes of a sleeping creature. Upon waking that creature makes a Wisdom or Charisma Saving Throw vs your spell DC. On a failed save they witness a nightmarish demon sitting upon their chest keeping them Paralyzed so long as you retain concentration and they take 1d4 Psychic damage. Or only damage on a successful save. The creature makes a new saving throw at the start of each of their turns. If the creature takes any other damage than Psychic damage, this spell ends.

Many dream of the waking world as they sleep. You however, are able to do much more. Upon falling asleep you manifest on the edge between waking and sleeping. You are able to have your spirit leave the body and explore the area around where you are sleeping up to a distance of 300ft for 1 hour. The area is a 1 to 1 copy of the area in the waking world except that it is muted. Colors are duller, books and signs have no words, mirrors have no reflection, and locked doors remain locked. Creatures who are not dreaming are also invisible to you and you are unable to pass through barriers that are set up in the waking world which also exist in the ethereal plane. If you are awoken for any reason before your long rest of sleep is up you are unable to remember what you dreamt of.
While in this state your spirit is immune to physical and magical weapons of the waking world. However, Ethereal, Eldritch, Wyrd, and Conceptional weapons/damage can still harm you. Creatures which can see into the Ethereal Plane can see you.
At Higher Levels. Increase the number hours you can explore by 1 for each level cast above 4th.

Components: S
Duration: Until you sleep
As an additional cost of this spell, you take one level of exhaustion.
The brother and sister Divine of Duality war, fight, and bicker constantly with differing views that seem impossible to overcome. However, there is one thing they agree on and that is that the sleeping should be left to rest. You softly slide your hands over the face of a willing creature inviting it to sleep. As you do this the warring nature of the duality washes over you as if trying to tear you apart, but for just a moment come together in blissful harmony before warring once more. This small miracle enacts Divine protection over the one sleeping. Until you fall asleep, become unconscious, or die the touched creature remains sleeping and is immune to all harm, effects, and abilities equal to or lesser than 9th level, Artifacts, or Divine level beings.

Duration: concentration
The sonata of an era defining musician. The visions of a great sage. The hopes of a child. All these things change the world of the waking yet are told in stories as old as time itself to be born in the realm of sleep. With a piece of that realm in hand you shatter the barrier between you and your sleeping self-becoming one. Reality warps around you as you channel, in some small part, the power of the Duality made manifest. From a point centering on you 1,000ft around you is yours to create, destroy, and alter as if you were lucid dreaming. This is a reality warping effect. Nothing of power equal to or less than an 8th level spell can even attempt to alter or stop anything within your 1,000ft bubble. You can change anything below a 9th level spell, Artifact, and Divine level being without needing to roll or make a save of any kind. When something leaves your 1,000ft bubble, if it is still alive, reverts to its normal form.
Spell List. Bard, Druid
