1st-level illusion
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range: Self
Components: V, S
Duration: 1 hour


In the realm of shadow and silence, Whisperwind's Veil is a spell of subtlety and stealth, a delicate wisp of magic that cloaks the caster in near-invisibility. As you utter the incantation, a gentle breeze, redolent with the scents of forgotten forests and ancient secrets, swirls around you. This breeze, barely perceptible, weaves an illusory cloak that blurs the edges of your form, making you blend seamlessly with your surroundings.

Upon casting, you become shrouded in a veil of illusion. This ethereal cloak renders your movements almost soundless and your presence barely noticeable. The footsteps you make are muffled as if you walked upon a blanket of moss in a slumbering forest. Your breathing and the rustle of your clothes fade into a silence that mimics the stillness of the night.

While under the effect of this spell, you gain advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks. The spell does not render you invisible but rather obscures your presence, making it difficult for others to perceive your exact location. The magic of Whisperwind's Veil is such that it slightly distorts light and sound around you, crafting an aura of indistinctness.

The spell's effect ends early if you cast a spell, make an attack, or perform an action that breaks the subtle harmony of the veil's magic. This disruption causes the breeze to dissipate, and with it, the veil's protective embrace.

Notably, the spell does not mask odors or thermal signatures, and thus creatures with keen senses or special abilities to detect heat or scent may still perceive your presence.
