Temporal Echoes Spell in Changing Stars | World Anvil

Temporal Echoes

Temporal Echoes
6th-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self
Components: V, S, M (a fragment of an ancient sundial and a piece of amber)
Duration: Instantaneous
  This spell allows you to momentarily tap into the river of time, creating echoes of your past actions. Upon casting, choose up to two actions you have taken within the last minute (these can include attacks, spell casting, movement, or any other standard or bonus action). You instantly replicate these actions as temporal echoes.
  Echo Limitations:
  The replicated actions must target the same creatures or areas and use the same rolls and effects as the original actions.
If the original action involved a consumable item or a spell slot, the echo does not consume additional resources.
Temporal echoes cannot replicate actions that significantly altered the environment or other creatures, such as killing a creature or causing a large structure to collapse. You can echo an attack or damaging strike or spell, just not the one that dealt the killing blow or final devastating impact.
Temporal Strain: After using this spell, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest without risking temporal fatigue. Each time you cast this spell after the first without taking a long rest, make a Constitution saving throw versus your own Spell Save DC +1 for each time you have cast the spell without a long rest, taking a level of Exhaustion upon a failed save. Additionally, there's a 5% cumulative chance for each consecutive action replicated (without a long rest in between) of experiencing a minor temporal backlash, causing you to age 1d4 days. After the spell ends, roll a d20 for the temporal backlash with a result of 2 or lower triggering backlash from casting this spell once and having echoed 2 actions.
  At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, you can replicate one additional action for each slot level above 6th.
  Classes: Wizard, Sorcerer
