You hurl a molten rock, inflicting damage and melting even the strongest of armour. Make a ranged spell attack against one target in range. On a hit, the target takes 1d8 fire damage. If a hit target is wearing nonmagical metal armor, it becomes damaged and the target suffers -1 AC. The target's armor is rendered useless after it reaches a -5 AC, and is destroyed beyond repair by normal means.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, it deals an additional 1d8 damage and causes affected armour to suffer an additional -1 penalty for each slot above 2nd.
Levitate
2-level Transmutation
One creature or object of your choice that you can see within range rises vertically, up to 20 feet, and remains suspended there for the duration. The spell can levitate a target that weighs up to 500 pounds. An unwilling creature that succeeds on a Constitution saving throw is unaffected.
The target can move only by pushing or pulling against a fixed object or surface within reach (such as a wall or a ceiling), which allows it to move as if it were climbing. You can change the target’s altitude by up to 20 feet in either direction on your turn. If you are the target, you can move up or down as part of your move. Otherwise, you can use your action to move the target, which must remain within the spell’s range.
When the spell ends, the target floats gently to the ground if it is still aloft.
Locate Object
2-level Divination
Describe or name an object that is familiar to you. You sense the direction to the object’s location, as long as that object is within 1,000 feet of you. If the object is in motion, you know the direction of its movement.
The spell can locate a specific object known to you, as long as you have seen it up close - within 30 feet - at least once. Alternatively, the spell can locate the nearest object of a particular kind, such as a certain kind of apparel, jewellery, furniture, tool, or weapon.
This spell can’t locate an object if any thickness of lead, even a thin sheet, blocks a direct path between you and the object.
Magic Weapon
2-level Transmutation
You touch a nonmagical weapon. Until the spell ends, that weapon becomes a magic weapon with a +1 bonus to attack rolls and damage rolls.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the bonus increases to +2. When you use a spell slot of 6th level or higher, the bonus increases to +3.
Melf's Acid Arrow
2-level Evocation
A shimmering green arrow streaks toward a target within range and bursts in a spray of acid. Make a ranged spell attack against the target. On a hit, the target takes 4d4 acid damage immediately and 2d4 acid damage at the end of its next turn. On a miss, the arrow splashes the target with acid for half as much of the initial damage and no damage at the end of its next turn.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the damage (both initial and later) increases by 1d4 for each slot level above 2nd.
Scorching Ray
2-level Evocation
You create three rays of fire and hurl them at targets within range. You can hurl them at one target or several.
Make a ranged spell attack for each ray. On a hit, the target takes 2d6 fire damage.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, you create one additional ray for each slot level above 2nd.
Thunderwhip
2-level Evocation
You evoke a vibrating whip in your free hand, whose whipcrack is most disturbing to animals. The whip lasts for the duration. If you let go of the whip, it disappears, but you can evoke the whip again as a bonus action.
You can use your action to make a melee spell attack with the thunderwhip, which has a reach of 10 feet. On a hit it deals 2d4 thunder damage. If the target is a beast, it becomes frightened until the end of its next turn.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the reach of the weapon increases by 5 feet and the damage increases by 1d4 for every two slot levels above 2nd.
Tile of Fire
2-level Evocation
One 5 foot square you can see within range is lit on fire by magical means. Any creature that moves into the area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there must make a Dexterity saving throw or take 2d6 fire damage.
For the duration of this spell, you use a bonus action to dismiss and recreate the magical fire up to 20 feet away from its previous location.
When you cast this spell using a 3rd level spell slot or higher, you can enhance it in several ways. For each slot level above 1st, pick one of the following. You may pick an option multiple times.
- Additional Tile. You create an additional 5-foot square of fire within range, which behaves identically to the first. When you use your bonus action to dismiss and recreate fire with this spell, you can dismiss any number of squares evoke with this spell.
- Additional Damage. All fire created by this spell deals an additional 1d6 fire damage.

Fireball
3-level Evocation
A bright streak flashes from your pointing finger to a point you choose within range and then blossoms with a low roar into an explosion of flame. Each creature in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on that point must make a Dexterity saving throw. A target takes 8d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
The fire spreads around corners. It ignites flammable objects in the area that aren't being worn or carried.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 3rd.

When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, you can target one additional creature for each slot level above 3rd.
Frigid Smite
3-level Evocation
The next time you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack before this spell ends, the weapon is enshrouded in freezing energy, and the attack deals an extra 3d8 cold damage to the target. Additionally, the target is restrained by ice for 1 minute. A creature restrained by the ice can use its action to make a Strength check against your spell save DC. On a success, it frees itself.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 3rd.
Frostball
3-level Evocation
A small ball of blue and white energy leaves the tip of your finger and flies to a point you can see within range, exploding upon impact with a sharp crack and covering surfaces in a 20 foot radius sphere centred on that point with snow and frost. Each creature in that area must make a Constitution saving throw. A target takes 5d8 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Until the end of your next turn, a creature that enters the area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or slip on the ice coating and fall prone.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 3rd.
Glacial Pass
3-level Evocation
You create a wave of ice shards that rise out of the ground along a line 5 feet wide and 30 feet long. When you cast this spell, you can choose to teleport to an unoccupied space that is completely within this area, halting the advance of the wave up to that point and thus shortening the line. Each creature in the spell's area must make a Dexterity saving throw, taking 2d10 piercing damage and 3d6 cold damage on a failed save or half as much on a success. The shards leave a wake of ice in their path, causing the ground in the area to become difficult terrain until the end of your next turn.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the cold damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 3rd.
Ice Spear
3-level Evocation
A frozen spear of ice pierces through a line 30 feet long by 5 feet wide starting at a point in range that you can see. Each creature in the line must make a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 6d8 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

A stroke of lightning form ing a line 100 feet long and 5 feet wide blasts out from you in a direction you choose. Each creature in the line must make a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 8d6 lightning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
The lightning ignites flammable objects in the area that aren’t being worn or carried.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 3rd.
Lingering Flame
3-level Evocation
You evoke a fist-sized sized orb of fire in the air at a point within range. When a creature moves within 10 feet of it or begins its turn within that distance, the orb explodes: All creatures within 10 feet of the orb must make a Dexterity saving throw, taking 6d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much on a success. The orb's explosion spreads around corners.
If the spell ends or is dispelled before the ball detonates, it instead harmlessly vanishes.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot above 3rd.
Meld into Stone
3-level Transmutation
Ritual - does not require spell slot, takes 10 minutes longerYou step into a stone object or surface large enough to fully contain your body, melding yourself and all the equipment you carry with the stone for the duration. Using your movement, you step into the stone at a point you can touch. Nothing of your presence remains visible or otherwise detectable by nonmagical senses.
While merged with the stone, you can’t see what occurs outside it, and any Wisdom (Perception) checks you make to hear sounds outside it are made with disadvantage. You remain aware of the passage of time and can cast spells on yourself while merged in the stone. You can use your movement to leave the stone where you entered it, which ends the spell. You otherwise can’t move.
Minor physical damage to the stone doesn’t harm you, but its partial destruction or a change in its shape (to the extent that you no longer fit within it) expels you and deals 6d6 bludgeoning damage to you. The stone’s complete destruction (or transmutation into a different substance) expels you and deals 50 bludgeoning damage to you. If expelled, you fall prone in an unoccupied space closest to where you first entered.
Quench
3-level Transmutation
You extinguish all fires in a 30 foot cube centred on a point you choose within range. Any nonmagical fire is put out automatically, as are magical flames created by a spell of 3rd level or lower. For each spell of 4th level or higher which is creating flame within this area, make an ability check using your spellcasting ability. The DC equals 10 + the spell's level. On a successful check, the spell that created the fire ends.
Fire created by a magical item is also doused, and the item becomes unable to produce fire for 1d4 hours. Artifacts are immune to this effect.
Fire-based creatures in the spell's area, such as fire elementals, must make a Constitution saving throw, taking 8d6 cold damage on a failed save or half as much on a success.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the cube's size increases by 5 feet for each slot level above 3rd.
Sleet Storm
3-level Conjuration
Until the spell ends, freezing rain and sleet fall in a 20 foot tall cylinder with a 40 foot radius centred on a point you choose within range. The area is heavily obscured, and exposed flames in the area are doused.
The ground in the area is covered with slick ice, making it difficult terrain. When a creature enters the spell’s area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, it must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, it falls prone.
If a creature is concentrating in the spell’s area, the creature must make a successful Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC or lose concentration.
Slow
3-level Transmutation
You alter time around up to six creatures of your choice in a 40 foot cube within range. Each target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be affected by this spell for the duration.
An affected target’s speed is halved, it takes a -2 penalty to AC and Dexterity saving throws, and it can’t use reactions. On its turn, it can use either an action or a bonus action, not both. Regardless of the creature’s abilities or magic items, it can’t make more than one melee or ranged attack during its turn.
If the creature attempts to cast a spell with a casting time of 1 action, roll a d20. On an 11 or higher, the spell doesn’t take effect until the creature’s next turn, and the creature must use its action on that turn to complete the spell. If it can’t, the spell is wasted.
A creature affected by this spell makes another Wisdom saving throw at the end of its turn. On a successful save, the effect ends for it.
Stinking Cloud
3-level Conjuration
You create a 20 foot radius sphere of yellow, nauseating gas centred on a point within range. The cloud spreads around corners, and its area is heavily obscured. The cloud lingers in the air for the duration.
Each creature that is completely within the cloud at the start of its turn must make a Constitution saving throw against poison. On a failed save, the creature spends its action that turn retching and reeling. Creatures that don’t need to breathe or are immune to poison automatically succeed on this saving throw.
A moderate wind (at least 10 miles per hour) disperses the cloud after 4 rounds. A strong wind (at least 20 miles per hour) disperses it after 1 round.
Water Walk
3-level Transmutation
This spell grants the ability to move across any liquid surface - such as water, acid, mud, snow, quicksand, or lava - as if it were harmless solid ground (creatures crossing molten lava can still take damage from the heat). Up to ten willing creatures you can see within range gain this ability for the duration.
If you target a creature submerged in a liquid, the spell carries the target to the surface of the liquid at a rate of 60 feet per round.
Wind Wall
3-level Evocation
A wall of strong wind rises from the ground at a point you choose within range. You can make the wall up to 50 feet long, 15 feet high, and 1 foot thick. You can shape the wall in any way you choose so long as it makes one continuous path along the ground. The wall lasts for the duration.
When the wall appears, each creature within its area must make a Strength saving throw. A creature takes 3d8 bludgeoning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
The strong wind keeps fog, smoke, and other gases at bay. Small or smaller flying creatures or objects can’t pass through the wall. Loose, lightweight materials brought into the wall fly upward. Arrows, bolts, and other ordinary projectiles launched at targets behind the wall are deflected upward and automatically miss. (Boulders hurled by giants or siege engines, and similar projectiles, are unaffected.) Creatures in gaseous form can’t pass through it.
4th Level Half-Dragon Sorcerer Spells
Conjure Minor ElementalsConjure Minor Elementals
4-level Conjuration
You summon elementals that appear in unoccupied spaces that you can see within range. You choose one the following options for what appears:
- One elemental of challenge rating 2 or lower
- Two elementals of challenge rating 1 or lower
- Four elementals of challenge rating 1/2 or lower
- Eight elementals of challenge rating 1/4 or lower
An elemental summoned by this spell disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends.
The summoned creatures are friendly to you and your companions. Roll initiative for the summoned creatures as a group, which has its own turns. They obey any verbal commands that you issue to them (no action required by you). If you don’t issue any commands to them, they defend themselves from hostile creatures, but otherwise take no actions.
The DM has the creatures' statistics.
When you cast this spell using certain higher level spell slots, you choose one of the summoning options above, and more creatures appear: twice as many with a 6th level slot and three times as many with an 8th level slot.
Control Water
4-level Transmutation
Until the spell ends, you control any freestanding water inside an area you choose that is a cube up to 100 feet on a side. You can choose from any of the following effects when you cast this spell. As an action on your turn, you can repeat the same effect or choose a different one.
Flood. You cause the water level of all standing water in the area to rise by as much as 20 feet. If the area includes a shore, the flooding water spills over onto dry land.
If you choose an area in a large body of water, you instead create a 20 foot tall wave that travels from one side of the area to the other and then crashes down. Any Huge or smaller vehicles in the wave’s path are carried with it to the other side. Any Huge or smaller vehicles struck by the wave have a 25 percent chance of capsizing.
The water level remains elevated until the spell ends or you choose a different effect. If this effect produced a wave, the wave repeats on the start of your next turn while the flood effect lasts.
Part Water. You cause water in the area to move apart and create a trench. The trench extends across the spell’s area, and the separated water forms a wall to either side. The trench remains until the spell ends or you choose a different effect. The water then slowly fills in the trench over the course of the next round until the normal water level is restored.
Redirect Flow. You cause flowing water in the area to move in a direction you choose, even if the water has to flow over obstacles, up walls, or in other unlikely directions. The water in the area m oves as you direct it, but once it moves beyond the spell’s area, it resumes its flow based on the terrain conditions. The water continues to move in the direction you chose until the spell ends or you choose a different effect.
Whirlpool. This effect requires a body of water at least 50 feet square and 25 feet deep. You cause a whirlpool to form in the center of the area. The whirlpool forms a vortex that is 5 feet wide at the base, up to 50 feet wide at the top, and 25 feet tall. Any creature or object in the water and within 25 feet of the vortex is pulled 10 feet toward it. A creature can swim away from the vortex by making a Strength (Athletics) check against your spell save DC.
When a creature enters the vortex for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, it must make a Strength saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 2d8 bludgeoning damage and is caught in the vortex until the spell ends. On a successful save, the creature takes half damage, and isn’t caught in the vortex. A creature caught in the vortex can use its action to try to swim away from the vortex as described above, but has disadvantage on the Strength (Athletics) check to do so.
The first time each turn that an object enters the vortex, the object takes 2d8 bludgeoning damage; this damage occurs each round it remains in the vortex.
Corrosive Aura
4-level Conjuration
A corrosive green mist pours off from you in an aura with a 10 foot radius. The area within the aura is lightly obscured. Each creature within the aura when it appears must make a Constitution saving throw. A target takes 4d8 acid damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Any creature that moves within the aura for the first time on a turn or ends its turn there must also make this saving throw at that time.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th or higher the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot above 4th.
Fire Shield
4-level Evocation
Thin and wispy flames wreathe your body for the duration, shedding bright light in a 10 foot radius and dim light for an additional 10 feet. You can end the spell early by using an action to dismiss it.
The flames provide you with a warm shield or a chill shield, as you choose. The warm shield grants you resistance to cold damage, and the chill shield grants you resistance to fire damage.
In addition, whenever a creature within 5 feet of you hits you with a melee attack, the shield erupts with flame. The attacker takes 2d8 fire damage from a warm shield, or 2d8 cold damage from a cold shield.
Ice Storm
4-level Evocation
A hail of rock-hard ice pounds to the ground in a 20-foot-radius, 40-foot-high cylinder centered on a point within range. Each creature in the cylinder must make a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 2d8 bludgeoning damage and 4d6 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Hailstones turn the storm's area of effect into difficult terrain until the end of your next turn.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the bludgeoning damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 4th.
Leomund's Secret Chest
4-level Abjuration
You hide a chest, and all its contents, on the Ethereal Plane. You must touch the chest and the miniature replica that serves as a material component for the spell. The chest can contain up to 12 cubic feet of nonliving material (3 feet by 2 feet by 2 feet).
While the chest remains on the Ethereal Plane, you can use an action and touch the replica to recall the chest. It appears in an unoccupied space on the ground within 5 feet of you. You can send the chest back to the Ethereal Plane by using an action and touching both the chest and the replica.
After 60 days, there is a cumulative 5 percent chance per day that the spell's effect ends. This effect ends if you cast this spell again, if the smaller replica chest is destroyed, or if you choose to end the spell as an action. If the spell ends and the larger chest is on the Ethereal Plane, it is irretrievably lost.
Mordenkainen's Private Sanctum
4-level Abjuration
You make an area within range magically secure. The area is a cube that can be as small as 5 feet to as large as 100 feet on each side. The spell lasts for the duration or until you use an action to dismiss it.
When you cast the spell, you decide what sort of security the spell provides, choosing any or all of the properties listed below.
Casting this spell on the same spot every day for a year makes this effect permanent.
- Sound can't pass through the barrier at the edge of the warded area.
- The barrier of the warded area appears dark and foggy, preventing vision (including darkvision) through it.
- Sensors created by divination spells can’t appear inside the protected area or pass through the barrier at its perimeter.
- Creatures in the area can’t be targeted by divination spells.
- Nothing can teleport into or out of the warded area.
- Planar travel is blocked within the warded area.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, you can increase the size of the cube by 100 feet for each slot level beyond 4th. Thus you could protect a cube that can be up to 200 feet on one side by using a spell slot of 5th level.
Otiluke's Resilient Sphere
4-level Evocation
A sphere of shimmering force encloses a creature or object of Large size or smaller within range. An unwilling creature must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is enclosed for the duration.
Nothing - not physical objects, energy, or other spell effects - can pass through the barrier, in or out, though a creature in the sphere can breathe there. The sphere is immune to all damage, and a creature or object inside can’t be damaged by attacks or effects originating from outside, nor can a creature inside the sphere damage anything outside it.
The sphere is weightless and just large enough to contain the creature or object inside. An enclosed creature can use its action to push against the sphere’s walls and thus roll the sphere at up to half the creature’s speed. Similarly, the globe can be picked up and moved by other creatures.
A disintegrate spell targeting the globe destroys it without harming anything inside it.
Stoneskin
4-level Abjuration
This spell turns the flesh of a willing creature you touch as hard as stone. Until the spell ends, the target has resistance to nonmagical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.
Swiftbolt
4-level Evocation
A bolt of focused and accelerated magical lightning springs from your pointing finger, hitting a creature of your choice you can see within range without chance of failure. It deals 5d6 lightning damage to its target.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 4th.
Wall of Fire
4-level Evocation
You create a wall of fire on a solid surface within range. You can make the wall up to 60 feet long, 20 feet high, and 1 foot thick, or a ringed wall up to 20 feet in diameter, 20 feet high, and 1 foot thick. The wall is opaque and lasts for the duration.
When the wall appears, each creature within its area must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 5d8 fire damage, or half as much damage on a successful save.
One side of the wall, selected by you when you cast this spell, deals 5d8 fire damage to each creature that ends its turn within 10 feet of that side or inside the wall. A creature takes the same damage when it enters the wall for the first time on a turn or ends its turn there. The other side of the wall deals no damage.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 4th.
Zone of Silence
4-level Illusion
You manipulate sounds waves in a 5 foot radius sphere centred on yourself to protect against eavesdroppers while allowing those within to converse normally. No sound can pass through the sphere; creatures within are immune to thunder damage from sources originating outside and are effectively deafened to everything not within the sphere, and vice versa. Until the spell ends or you dismiss it as a bonus action, the sphere moves with you, centered on you.
A successful Wisdom (Insight) check to read lips can still reveal what's said on the other side of the sphere.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the duration increases by 1 hour for each slot level above 4th.
5th Level Half-Dragon Sorcerer Spells
Chromatic ExplosionChromatic Explosion
5-level Evocation
You gesture to a point you can see within range, and an explosion of energy that erupts from that point. You choose acid, cold, fire, lightning, poison, or thunder for the type of explosion you create. Each creature in a 30 foot radius sphere centred on that point must make a Dexterity saving throw, taking 5d10 damage of the type you chose on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th or higher, the damage increases by 1d10 for each slot level above 5th.
Cloudkill
5-level Conjuration
You create a 20 foot radius sphere of poisonous, yellow-green fog centred on a point you choose within range. The fog spreads around corners. It lasts for the duration or until strong wind disperses the fog, ending the spell. Its area is heavily obscured.
When a creature enters the spell’s area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, that creature must make a Constitution saving throw. The creature takes 5d8 poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Creatures are affected even if they hold their breath or don’t need to breathe.
The fog moves 10 feet away from you at the start of each of your turns, rolling along the surface of the ground. The vapors, being heavier than air, sink to the lowest level of the land, even pouring down openings.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 5th.
Cone of Cold
5-level Evocation
A blast of cold air erupts from your hands. Each creature in a 60 foot cone must make a Constitution saving throw. A creature takes 8d8 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
A creature killed by this spell becomes a frozen statue until it thaws.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 5th.
Conjure Elemental
5-level Conjuration
You call forth an elemental servant. Choose an area of air, earth, fire, or water that fills a 10-foot cube within range. An elemental of challenge rating 5 or lower appropriate to the area you chose appears in an unoccupied space within 10 feet of it. For example, a fire elemental emerges from a bonfire, and an earth elemental rises up from the ground. The elemental disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends.
The elemental is friendly to you and your companions for the duration. Roll initiative for the elemental, which has its own turns. It obeys any verbal commands that you issue to it (no action required by you). If you don’t issue any commands to the elemental, it defends itself from hostile creatures but otherwise takes no actions.
If your concentration is broken, the elemental doesn’t disappear. Instead, you lose control of the elemental, it becomes hostile toward you and your companions, and it might attack. An uncontrolled elemental can’t be dismissed by you, and it disappears 1 hour after you summoned it.
The DM has the elemental’s statistics.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, the challenge rating increases by 1 for each slot level above 5th.
Dominate Person
5-level Enchantment
You attempt to beguile a humanoid that you can see within range. It must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be charmed by you for the duration. If you or creatures that are friendly to you are fighting it, it has advantage on the saving throw.
While the target is charmed, you have a telepathic link with it as long as the two of you are on the same plane of existence. You can use this telepathic link to issue commands to the creature while you are conscious (no action required), which it does its best to obey. You can specify a simple and general course of action, such as “Attack that creature,” “Run over there,” or “Fetch that object.” If the creature completes the order and doesn’t receive further direction from you, it defends and preserves itself to the best of its ability.
You can use your action to take total and precise control of the target. Until the end of your next turn, the creature takes only the actions you choose, and doesn’t do anything that you don’t allow it to do. During this time you can also cause the creature to use a reaction, but this requires you to use your own reaction as well.
Each time the target takes damage, it makes a new Wisdom saving throw against the spell. If the saving throw succeeds, the spell ends.
When you cast this spell using a 6th level spell slot, the duration is concentration, up to 10 minutes. When you use a 7th level spell slot, the duration is concentration, up to 1 hour. When you use a spell slot of 8th level or higher, the duration is concentration, up to 8 hours.
Durnash's Flames
5-level Evocation
The creature that took damage is wracked with flames of intensity proportional to its pain. The target must make a Constitution saving throw. It takes fire damage equal to the triggering damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Geas
5-level Enchantment
You place a magical command on a creature that you can see within range, forcing it to carry out some service or refrain from some action or course of activity as you decide. If the creature can understand you, it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or become charmed by you for the duration. While the creature is charmed by you, it takes 5d10 psychic damage each time it acts in a manner directly counter to your instructions, but no more than once each day. A creature that can't understand you is unaffected by the spell.
You can issue any command you choose, short of an activity that would result in certain death. Should you issue a suicidal command, the spell ends.
You can end the spell early by using an action to dismiss it. A remove curse, greater restoration, or wish spell also ends it.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th or 8th level, the duration is 1 year. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 9th level, the spell lasts until it is ended by one of the spells mentioned above.
Planar Binding
5-level Conjuration
With this spell, you attempt to bind a celestial, an elemental, a fey, or a fiend to your service. The creature must be within range for the entire casting of the spell. (Typically, the creature is first summoned into the centre of an inverted magic circle in order to keep it trapped while this spell is cast.) At the completion of the casting, the target must make a Charisma saving throw. On a failed save, it is bound to serve you for the duration. If the creature was summoned or created by another spell, that spell’s duration is extended to match the duration of this spell.
A bound creature must follow your instructions to the best of its ability. You might command the creature to accompany you on an adventure, to guard a location, or to deliver a message. The creature obeys the letter of your instructions, but if the creature is hostile to you, it strives to twist your words to achieve its own objectives. If the creature carries out your instructions completely before the spell ends, it travels to you to report this fact if you are on the same plane of existence. If you are on a different plane of existence, it returns to the place where you bound it and remains there until the spell ends.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of a higher level, the duration increases to 10 days with a 6th level slot, to 30 days with a 7th level slot, to 180 days with an 8th level slot, and to a year and a day with a 9th level spell slot.
Righteous Might
5-level Transmutation
Your size doubles in all dimensions and your weight is multiplied by 8. This growth increases its size by one category - from Medium to Large, for example. If there isn't enough room for you to double in size, you attain the maximum possible size in the space available.
Until the spell ends, Strength skill checks (Athletics) and Strength saving throws that you make are equal to your Strength score (max 20). Your weapons and armour also grow to match your new size. While these weapons are enlarged, the weapon deals an additional damage die on the weapon but not any magical damage dealt by the weapon.
In addition, you are infused with supernatural hardiness. For the duration, bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage that you take from non-magical weapons is reduced by 3 and your AC increases by 2.
Any enlarged item that leaves your possession (including a projectile or thrown weapon) instantly returns to its normal size. This means that thrown weapons deal their normal damage (projectiles deal damage based on the size of the weapon that fired them).
This spell does not stack with other magical effects that increase size.
Wall of Stone
5-level Evocation
A nonmagical wall of solid stone springs into existence at a point you choose within range. The wall is 6 inches thick and is composed of ten 10 foot by 10 foot panels. Each panel must be contiguous with at least one other panel. Alternatively, you can create 10 foot by 20 foot panels that are only 3 inches thick.
If the wall cuts through a creature’s space when it appears, the creature is pushed to one side of the wall (your choice). If a creature would be surrounded on all sides by the wall (or the wall and another solid surface), that creature can make a Dexterity saving throw. On a success, it can use its reaction to move up to its speed so that it is no longer enclosed by the wall.
The wall can have any shape you desire, though it can’t occupy the same space as a creature or object. The wall doesn’t need to be vertical or rest on any firm foundation. It must, however, merge with and be solidly supported by existing stone. Thus, you can use this spell to bridge a chasm or create a ramp.
If you create a span greater than 20 feet in length, you must halve the size of each panel to create supports. You can crudely shape the wall to create crenellations, battlements, and so on.
The wall is an object made of stone that can be damaged and thus breached. Each panel has AC 15 and 30 hit points per inch of thickness. Reducing a panel to 0 hit points destroys it and might cause connected panels to collapse at the DM’s discretion.
If you maintain your concentration on this spell for its whole duration, the wall becomes permanent and can’t be dispelled. Otherwise, the wall disappears when the spell ends.
6th Level Half-Dragon Sorcerer Spells
Chain LightningChain Lightning
6-level Evocation
You create a bolt of lightning that arcs toward a target of your choice that you can see within range. Three bolts then leap from that target to as many as three other targets, each of which must be within 30 feet of the first target. A target can be a creature or an object and can be targeted by only one of the bolts.
A target must make a Dexterity saving throw. The target takes 10d8 lightning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, one additional bolt leaps from the first target to another target for each slot level above 6th.
Flesh to Stone
6-level Transmutation
You attempt to turn one creature that you can see within range into stone. If the target’s body is made of flesh, the creature must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, it is restrained as its flesh begins to harden. On a successful save, the creature isn’t affected.
A creature restrained by this spell must make another Constitution saving throw at the end of each of its turns. If it successfully saves against this spell three times, the spell ends. If it fails its saves three times, it is turned to stone and subjected to the petrified condition for the duration. The successes and failures don’t need to be consecutive; keep track of both until the target collects three of a kind.
If the creature is physically broken while petrified, it suffers from similar deformities if it reverts to its original state.
If you maintain your concentration on this spell for the entire possible duration, the creature is turned to stone until the effect is removed.
Guards and Wards
6-level Abjuration
You create a ward that protects up to 2,500 square feet of floor space (an area 50 feet square, or one hundred 5 foot squares or twenty five 10 foot squares). The warded area can be up to 20 feet tall, and shaped as you desire. You can ward several stories of a stronghold by dividing the area among them, as long as you can walk into each contiguous area while you are casting the spell.
When you cast this spell, you can specify individuals that are unaffected by any or all of the effects that you choose. You can also specify a password that, when spoken aloud, makes the speaker immune to these effects.
Guards and wards creates the following effects within the warded area.
Corridors. Fog fills all the warded corridors, making them heavily obscured. In addition, at each intersection or branching passage offering a choice of direction, there is a 50 percent chance that a creature other than you will believe it is going in the opposite direction from the one it chooses.
Doors. All doors in the warded area are magically locked, as if sealed by an arcane lock spell. In addition, you can cover up to ten doors with an illusion (equivalent to the illusory object function of the minor illusion spell) to make them appear as plain sections of wall.
Stairs. Webs fill all stairs in the warded area from top to bottom, as the web spell. These strands regrow in 10 minutes if they are burned or torn away while guards and wards lasts.
Other Spell Effect. You can place your choice of one of the magical effects at the end of this description within the warded area of the stronghold.
The whole warded area radiates magic. A dispel magic cast on a specific effect, if successful, removes only that effect.
You can create a permanently guarded and warded structure by casting this spell there every day for one year.
- Place dancing lights in four corridors. You can designate a simple program that the lights repeat as long as guards and wards lasts.
- Place magic mouth in two locations.
- Place stinking cloud in two locations. The vapors appear in the places you designate; they return within 10 minutes if dispersed by wind while guards and wards lasts.
- Place a constant gust of wind in one corridor or room.
- Place a suggestion in one location. You select an area of up to 5 feet square, and any creature that enters or passes through the area receives the suggestion mentally.
Heroes' Feast
6-level Conjuration
You bring forth a great feast, including magnificent food and drink. The feast takes 1 hour to consume and disappears at the end of that time, and the beneficial effects don’t set in until this hour is over. Up to twelve other creatures can partake of the feast.
A creature that partakes of the feast gains several benefits. The creature is cured of all diseases and poison, becomes immune to poison and being frightened, and makes all Wisdom saving throws with advantage. Its hit point maximum also increases by 2d10, and it gains the same number of hit points. These benefits last for 24 hours.
Otiluke's Freezing Sphere
6-level Evocation
A frigid globe of cold energy streaks from your fingertips to a point of your choice within range, where it explodes in a 60 foot radius sphere. Each creature within the area must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 10d6 cold damage. On a successful save, it takes half as much damage.
If the globe strikes a body of water or a liquid that is principally water (not including water-based creatures), it freezes the liquid to a depth of 6 inches over an area 30 feet square. This ice lasts for 1 minute. Creatures that were swimming on the surface of frozen water are trapped in the ice. A trapped creature can use an action to make a Strength check against your spell save DC to break free.
You can refrain from firing the globe after completing the spell, if you wish. A small globe about the size of a sling stone, cool to the touch, appears in your hand. At any time, you or a creature you give the globe to can throw the globe (to a range of 40 feet) or hurl it with a sling (to the sling’s normal range). It shatters on impact, with the same effect as the normal casting of the spell. You can also set the globe down without shattering it. After 1 minute, if the globe hasn’t already shattered, it explodes.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 6th.
Wall of Ice
6-level Evocation
You create a wall of ice on a solid surface within range. You can form it into a hemispherical dome or a sphere with a radius of up to 10 feet, or you can shape a flat surface made up of ten 10 foot square panels. Each panel must be contiguous with another panel. In any form, the wall is 1 foot thick and lasts for the duration.
If the wall cuts through a creature’s space when it appears, the creature within its area is pushed to one side of the wall and must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 10d6 cold damage, or half as much damage on a successful save.
The wall is an object that can be damaged and thus breached. It has AC 12 and 30 hit points per 10 foot section, and it is vulnerable to fire damage. Reducing a 10 foot section of wall to 0 hit points destroys it and leaves behind a sheet of frigid air in the space the wall occupied. A creature moving through the sheet of frigid air for the first time on a turn must make a Constitution saving throw. That creature takes 5d6 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, the damage the wall deals when it appears increases by 2d6, and the damage from passing through the sheet of frigid air increases by 1d6, for each slot level above 6th.
Wall of Thorns
6-level Conjuration
You create a wall of tough, pliable, tangled brush bristling with needle-sharp thorns. The wall appears within range on a solid surface and lasts for the duration. You choose to make the wall up to 60 feet long, 10 feet high, and 5 feet thick or a circle that has a 20 foot diameter and is up to 20 feet high and 5 feet thick. The wall blocks line of sight.
When the wall appears, each creature within its area must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 7d8 piercing damage, or half as much damage on a successful save.
A creature can move through the wall, albeit slowly and painfully. For every 1 foot a creature moves through the wall, it must spend 4 feet of movement. Furthermore, the first time a creature enters the wall on a turn or ends its turn there, the creature must make a Dexterity saving throw. It takes 7d8 slashing damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, both types of damage increase by 1d8 for each slot level above 6th.
Wind Walk
6-level Transmutation
You and up to ten willing creatures you can see within range assume a gaseous form for the duration, appearing as wisps of cloud. While in this cloud form, a creature has a flying speed of 300 feet and has resistance to damage from nonmagical weapons. The only actions a creature can take in this form are the Dash action or to revert to its norm al form. Reverting takes 1 minute, during which time a creature is incapacitated and can’t move. Until the spell ends, a creature can revert to cloud form, which also requires the 1-minute transformation.
If a creature is in cloud form and flying when the effect ends, the creature descends 60 feet per round for 1 minute until it lands, which it does safely. If it can’t land after 1 minute, the creature falls the remaining distance.
Word of Recall
6-level Conjuration
You and up to five willing creatures within 5 feet of you instantly teleport to a previously designated sanctuary. You and any creatures that teleport with you appear in the nearest unoccupied space to the spot you designated when you prepared your sanctuary (see below). If you cast this spell without first preparing a sanctuary, the spell has no effect.
You must designate a sanctuary by casting this spell within a location, such as a temple, dedicated to or strongly linked to your deity. If you attempt to cast the spell in this manner in an area that isn’t dedicated to your deity, the spell has no effect.
7th Level Half-Dragon Sorcerer Spells
Delayed Blast FireballDelayed Blast Fireball
7-level Evocation
A beam of yellow light flashes from your pointing finger, then condenses to linger at a chosen point within range as a glowing bead for the duration. When the spell ends, either because your concentration is broken or because you decide to end it, the bead blossoms with a low roar into an explosion of flame that spreads around corners. Each creature in a 20 foot radius sphere centred on that point must make a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes fire damage equal to the total accumulated damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
The spell’s base damage is 12d6. If at the end of your turn the bead has not yet detonated, the damage increases by 1d6.
If the glowing bead is touched before the interval has expired, the creature touching it must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the spell ends immediately, causing the bead to erupt in flame. On a successful save, the creature can throw the bead up to 40 feet. When it strikes a creature or a solid object, the spell ends, and the bead explodes.
The fire damages objects in the area and ignites flammable objects that aren’t being worn or carried.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 8th level or higher, the base damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 7th.
Fire Storm
7-level Evocation
A storm made up of sheets of roaring flame appears in a location you choose within range. The area of the storm consists of up to ten 10 foot cubes, which you can arrange as you wish. Each cube must have at least one face adjacent to the face of another cube. Each creature in the area must make a Dexterity saving throw. It takes 7d10 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
The fire damages objects in the area and ignites flammable objects that aren't being worn or carried. If you choose, plant life in the area is unaffected by this spell.
Prismatic Spray
7-level Evocation
Eight multicoloured rays of light flash from your hand. Each ray is a different colour and has a different power and purpose. Each creature in a 60 foot cone must make a Dexterity saving throw. For each target, roll a d8 to determine which color ray affects it.
1. Red. The target takes 10d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
2. Orange. The target takes 10d6 acid damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
3. Yellow. The target takes 10d6 lightning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
4. Green. The target takes 10d6 poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
5. Blue. The target takes 10d6 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
6. Indigo. On a failed save, the target is restrained. It must then make a Constitution saving throw at the end of each of its turns. If it successfully saves three times, the spell ends. If it fails its save three times, it permanently turns to stone and is subjected to the petrified condition. The successes and failures don’t need to be consecutive; keep track of both until the target collects three of a kind.
7. Violet. On a failed save, the target is blinded. It must then make a Wisdom saving throw at the start of your next turn. A successful save ends the blindness. If it fails that save, the creature is transported to another plane of existence of the DM’s choosing and is no longer blinded. (Typically, a creature that is on a plane that isn’t its home plane is banished home, while other creatures are usually cast into the Astral or Ethereal planes.)
8. Special. The target is struck by two rays. Roll twice more, rerolling any 8.
Sequester
7-level Transmutation
By means of this spell, a willing creature or an object can be hidden away, safe from detection for the duration. When you cast the spell and touch the target, it becomes invisible and can’t be targeted by divination spells or perceived through scrying sensors created by divination spells.
If the target is a creature, it falls into a state of suspended animation. Time ceases to flow for it, and it doesn’t grow older.
You can set a condition for the spell to end early. The condition can be anything you choose, but it must occur or be visible within 1 mile of the target. Examples include “after 1,000 years” or “when the tarrasque awakens.” This spell also ends if the target takes any damage.
Simulacrum
7-level Illusion
You shape an illusory duplicate of one beast or humanoid that is within range for the entire casting time of the spell. The duplicate is a creature, partially real and formed from ice or snow, and it can take actions and otherwise be affected as a normal creature. It appears to be the same as the original, but it has half the creature’s hit point maximum and is formed without any equipment. Otherwise, the illusion uses all the statistics of the creature it duplicates.
The simulacrum is friendly to you and creatures you designate. It obeys your spoken commands, moving and acting in accordance with your wishes and acting on your turn in combat. The simulacrum lacks the ability to learn or become more powerful, so it never increases its level or other abilities, nor can it regain expended spell slots.
If the simulacrum is damaged, you can repair it in an alchemical laboratory, using rare herbs and minerals worth 100 gp per hit point it regains. The simulacrum lasts until it drops to 0 hit points, at which point it reverts to snow and melts instantly.
If you cast this spell again, any currently active duplicates you created with this spell are instantly destroyed.
Teleport
7-level Conjuration
This spell instantly transports you and up to eight willing creatures of your choice that you can see within range, or a single object that you can see within range, to a destination you select. If you target an object, it must be able to fit entirely inside a 10 foot cube, and it can’t be held or carried by an unwilling creature.
The destination you choose must be known to you, and it must be on the same plane of existence as you. Your familiarity with the destination determines whether you arrive there successfully. The DM rolls d100 and consults the table.
Familiarity
“Permanent circle” means a permanent teleportation circle whose sigil sequence you know.
“Associated object” means that you possess an object taken from the desired destination within the last six months, such as a book from a wizard’s library, bed linen from a royal suite, or a chunk of marble from a lich’s secret tomb.
“Very familiar” is a place you have been very often, a place you have carefully studied, or a place you can see when you cast the spell.
“Seen casually” is someplace you have seen more than once but with which you aren’t very familiar.
“Viewed once” is a place you have seen once, possibly using magic.
“Description” is a place whose location and appearance you know through someone else’s description, perhaps from a map.
“False destination” is a place that doesn’t exist. Perhaps you tried to scry an enemy’s sanctum but instead viewed an illusion, or you are attempting to teleport to a familiar location that no longer exists.
Success
“On target” means you and your group (or the target object) appear where you want to.
“Off target” means you and your group (or the target object) appear a random distance away from the destination in a random direction. Distance off target is 1d10 x 1d10 percent of the distance that was to be traveled. For example, if you tried to travel 120 miles, landed off target, and rolled a 5 and 3 on the two d10s, then you would be off target by 15 percent, or 18 miles. The DM determines the direction off target randomly by rolling a d8 and designating 1 as north, 2 as northeast, 3 as east, and so on around the points of the compass. If you were teleporting to a coastal city and wound up 18 miles out at sea, you could be in trouble.
“Similar area” means you and your group (or the target object) wind up in a different area that’s visually or thematically similar to the target area. If you are heading for your home laboratory, for example, you might wind up in another wizard’s laboratory or in an alchemical supply shop that has many of the same tools and implements as your laboratory. Generally, you appear in the closest similar place, but since the spell has no range limit, you could conceivably wind up anywhere on the plane.
“Mishap” means the spell’s unpredictable magic results in a difficult journey. Each teleporting creature (or the target object) takes 3d10 force damage, and the DM rerolls on the table to see where you wind up (multiple mishaps can occur, dealing damage each time).
| Familiarity | Mishap | Similar Area | Off Target | On Target |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Permanent circle | --- | --- | --- | 01-100 |
| Associated object | --- | --- | --- | 01-100 |
| Very familiar | 01-05 | 06-13 | 14-24 | 25-100 |
| Seen casually | 01-33 | 34-43 | 44-53 | 54-100 |
| Viewed once | 01-43 | 44-53 | 54-73 | 74-100 |
| Description | 01-43 | 44-53 | 54-73 | 74-100 |
| False destination | 01-50 | 51-100 | --- | --- |
8th Level Half-Dragon Sorcerer Spells
Blasting BoltBlasting Bolt
8-level Evocation
Make a ranged attack roll against a creature or object within range that you can see. On a hit, the target takes 15d10 damage of a type you choose from acid, cold, fire, force, lightning, necrotic, radiant, or thunder.
Boil Blood
8-level Necromancy
You point your finger at a creature you can see within range, and its blood begins to boil. The target must succeed on a Constitution saving throw, taking your choice of 8d10 fire or necrotic damage on a failed save. As an action on each of your turns, you can force the target to repeat the saving throw. On a success, it takes no damage this turn. On a failure, it takes the spell's damage again. This spell has no effect on undead or constructs.
Control Weather
8-level Transmutation
You take control of the weather within 5 miles of you for the duration. You must be outdoors to cast this spell. Moving to a place where you don’t have a clear path to the sky ends the spell early.
When you cast the spell, you change the current weather conditions, which are determined by the DM based on the climate and season. You can change precipitation, temperature, and wind. It takes 1d4 x 10 minutes for the new conditions to take effect. Once they do so, you can change the conditions again. When the spell ends, the weather gradually returns to normal.
When you change the weather conditions, find a current condition on the following tables and change its stage by one, up or down. When changing the wind, you can change its direction.
Precipitation
| Stage | Condition |
|---|---|
| 1 | Clear |
| 2 | Light clouds |
| 3 | Overcast or ground fog |
| 4 | Rain, hail or snow |
| 5 | Torrential rain, driving hail or blizzard |
Temperature
| Stage | Condition |
|---|---|
| 1 | Unbearable heat |
| 2 | Hot |
| 3 | Warm |
| 4 | Cool |
| 5 | Cold |
| 6 | Arctic cold |
Wind
| Stage | Condition |
|---|---|
| 1 | Calm |
| 2 | Moderate wind |
| 3 | Strong wind |
| 4 | Gale |
| 5 | Storm |
Earthquake
8-level Evocation
You create a seismic disturbance at a point on the ground that you can see within range. For the duration, an intense tremor rips through the ground in a 100 foot radius circle centred on that point and shakes creatures and structures in contact with the ground in that area.
The ground in the area becomes difficult terrain. Each creature on the ground that is concentrating must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature’s concentration is broken.
When you cast this spell and at the end of each turn you spend concentrating on it, each creature on the ground in the area must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is knocked prone.
This spell can have additional effects depending on the terrain in the area, as determined by the DM.
Fissures. Fissures open throughout the spell’s area at the start of your next turn after you cast the spell. A total of 1d6 such fissures open in locations chosen by the DM. Each is 1d10 x 10 feet deep, 10 feet wide, and extends from one edge of the spell’s area to the opposite side. A creature standing on a spot where a fissure opens must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or fall in. A creature that successfully saves moves with the fissure’s edge as it opens.
A fissure that opens beneath a structure causes it to automatically collapse (see below).
Structures. The tremor deals 50 bludgeoning damage to any structure in contact with the ground in the area when you cast the spell and at the start of each of your turns until the spell ends. If a structure drops to 0 hit points, it collapses and potentially damages nearby creatures. A creature within half the distance of a structure’s height must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 5d6 bludgeoning damage, is knocked prone, and is buried in the rubble, requiring a DC 20 Strength (Athletics) check as an action to escape. The DM can adjust the DC higher or lower, depending on the nature of the rubble. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage and doesn’t fall prone or become buried.
Glibness
8-level Transmutation
Until the spell ends, when you make a Charisma check, you can replace the number you roll with a 15. Additionally, no matter what you say, magic that would determine if you are telling the truth indicates that you are being truthful.
Incendiary Cloud
8-level Conjuration
A swirling cloud of smoke shot through with white-hot embers appears in a 20 foot radius sphere centred on a point within range. The cloud spreads around corners and is heavily obscured. It lasts for the duration or until a wind of moderate or greater speed (at least 10 miles per hour) disperses it.
When the cloud appears, each creature in it must make a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 10d8 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. A creature must also make this saving throw when it enters the spell’s area for the first time on a turn or ends its turn there.
The cloud moves 10 feet directly away from you in a direction that you choose at the start of each of your turns.
Tornado
8-level Conjuration
You conjure an spiralling cylinder of wind in range, which has a 20 foot radius and 40 foot height. This cylinder becomes difficult terrain for the duration, even for flying creatures. Unattended objects in this cylinder that are Large or smaller are pulled towards the centre. A creature that starts its turn in the cylinder must succeed on a Strength save or be pulled to the centre of the cylinder, and be restrained while it remains in the centre.
All creatures inside the cylinder take damage when this spell is cast, and again at the start of each of your turns. The damage inflicted depends on how many objects and creatures are in the cylinder itself.
Cumulative Damage
| Size | Damage |
|---|---|
| Small or Medium | +1d6 bludgeoning |
| Large | +2d6 bludgeoning |
| Huge | +3d6 bludgeoning |
| Unattended Weapons or Ammunition | +1d6 of it's respective damage |
A DM may determine that some creatures or objects inflict other forms of damage. A fire elemental for example may inflict fire damage instead of bludgeoning damage. Regardless of how many objects are in the cylinder, the damage a creature takes at one time from this spell cannot exceed 12d6.
While an affected target is able to take actions, it can attempt to escape the centre of the cylinder and thus remove its restrained condition. Any action that doesn't require movement but moves the creature, such as the misty step spell, automatically succeeds in removing the target. A creature can attempt a more mundane escape by succeeding on a Strength saving throw at any point during its turn.
When you cast this spell using a 9th level spell slot, it affects creatures Huge creatures and objects.
Tsunami
8-level Conjuration
A wall of water springs into existence at a point you choose within range. You can make the wall up to 300 feet long, 300 feet high, and 50 feet thick. The wall lasts for the duration.
When the wall appears, each creature within its area must make a Strength saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 6d10 bludgeoning damage, or half as much damage on a successful save.
At the start of each of your turns after the wall appears, the wall, along with any creatures in it, moves 50 feet away from you. Any Huge or smaller creature inside the wall or whose space the wall enters when it moves must succeed on a Strength saving throw or take 5d10 bludgeoning damage. A creature can take this damage only once per round. At the end of the turn, the wall’s height is reduced by 50 feet, and the damage creatures take from the spell on subsequent rounds is reduced by 1d10. When the wall reaches 0 feet in height, the spell ends.
A creature caught in the wall can move by swimming. Because of the force of the wave, though, the creature must make a successful Strength (Athletics) check against your spell save DC in order to move at all. If it fails the check, it can’t move. A creature that moves out of the area falls to the ground.

You summon a blizzard in a 500 foot radius around yourself. You may choose any sections in that area to not be affected by the blizzard. When you use this spell, after taking the action to initiate it, you may not take any other actions whatsoever during the three turns the blizzard is in existence.
Each creature in the blizzard must make a Constitution saving throw. Creatures that are flying have disadvantage on this save. Any creature that fails the save is knocked prone, takes 10d10 cold damage, and is incapacitated for the duration of the spell. Any creature that passes the save is not knocked prone, takes 5d10 cold damage, and its movement speed is reduced to 5.
At the beginning of the second round of the blizzard, all creatures must make another Constitution saving throw, with flying creatures suffering disadvantage. Any creature that fails this second constitution save, in addition to the first one, takes 10d10 cold damage, becomes unconscious, and you can move it in any direction up to 50 feet. Any creature that fails this constitution save, after passing the first constitution save, suffers the same effects as though it had just failed the first saving throw. Any creature that succeeds, in addition to succeeding the first save, takes 5d10 more cold damage.
At the beginning of the third round of the blizzard, all creatures must make a third Constitution saving throw, and flying creatures again have disadvantage on this. Any creature that fails after having failed the first two constitution saves takes 10d10 cold damage, then, if it is still alive, it becomes petrified, turning into an ice statue that cannot melt. Any creature fails after having failed one save and succeeded one save suffers the same effects as if had just failed the second save after failing the first save. Any creature that fails after succeeding the first two saves suffers the same effects as if it had just failed the first save.
During the round after the blizzard ends, creatures regain their original movement speed and all areas affected by the blizzard become difficult terrain for 1d4 days, due to massive amounts of snow on the ground. The following turn, all unconscious creatures will become conscious.
Any creatures caught in the blizzard that passed all of the Constitution saving throws gain vulnerability to fire damage for 1d4 hours. Those who failed one of the saving throws gain vulnerability to fire for 1d6 hours. Those who were affected by the blizzard and failed two or more saving throws gain vulnerability to fire for 2d4 hours.
Meteor Swarm
9-level Evocation
Blazing orbs of fire plummet to the ground at four different points you can see within range. Each creature in a 40 foot radius sphere centered on each point you choose must make a Dexterity saving throw. The sphere spreads around corners. A creature takes 20d6 fire damage and 20d6 bludgeoning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. A creature in the area of more than one fiery burst is affected only once.
The spell damages objects in the area and ignites flammable objects that aren’t being worn or carried.
Prismatic Wall
9-level Abjuration
A shimmering, multicolored plane of light forms a vertical opaque wall - up to 90 feet long, 30 feet high, and 1 inch thick - centred on a point you can see within range. Alternatively, you can shape the wall into a sphere up to 30 feet in diameter centred on a point you choose within range. The wall remains in place for the duration. If you position the wall so that it passes through a space occupied by a creature, the spell fails, and your action and the spell slot are wasted.
The wall sheds bright light out to a range of 100 feet and dim light for an additional 100 feet. You and creatures you designate at the time you cast the spell can pass through and remain near the wall without harm. If another creature that can see the wall m oves to within 20 feet of it or starts its turn there, the creature must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or become blinded for 1 minute.
The wall consists of seven layers, each with a different colour. When a creature attempts to reach into or pass through the wall, it does so one layer at a time through all the wall’s layers. As it passes or reaches through each layer, the creature must make a Dexterity saving throw or be affected by that layer’s properties as described below.
The wall can be destroyed, also one layer at a time, in order from red to violet, by means specific to each layer. Once a layer is destroyed, it remains so for the duration of the spell. A rod of cancellation destroys a prismatic wall, but an antimagic field has no effect on it.
1. Red. The creature takes 10d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. While this layer is in place, nonmagical ranged attacks can’t pass through the wall. The layer can be destroyed by dealing at least 25 cold damage to it.
2. Orange. The creature takes 10d6 acid damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. While this layer is in place, magical ranged attacks can’t pass through the wall. The layer is destroyed by a strong wind.
3. Yellow. The creature takes 10d6 lightning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. This layer can be destroyed by dealing at least 60 force damage to it.
4. Green. The creature takes 10d6 poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. A passwall spell, or another spell of equal or greater level that can open a portal on a solid surface, destroys this layer.
5. Blue. The creature takes 10d6 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. This layer can be destroyed by dealing at least 25 fire damage to it.
6. Indigo. On a failed save, the creature is restrained. It must then make a Constitution saving throw at the end of each of its turns. If it successfully saves three times, the spell ends. If it fails its save three times, it permanently turns to stone and is subjected to the petrified condition. The successes and failures don’t need to be consecutive; keep track of both until the creature collects three of a kind.
While this layer is in place, spells can’t be cast through the wall. The layer is destroyed by bright light shed by a daylight spell or a similar spell of equal or higher level.
7. Violet. On a failed save, the creature is blinded. It must then make a Wisdom saving throw at the start of your next turn. A successful save ends the blindness. If it fails that save, the creature is transported to another plane of the DM’s choosing and is no longer blinded. (Typically, a creature that is on a plane that isn’t its home plane is banished home, while other creatures are usually cast into the Astral or Ethereal planes.) This layer is destroyed by a dispel magic spell or a similar spell of equal or higher level that can end spells and magical effects.
Whiteout
9-level Conjuration
A blizzard forms, centred on a point you can see and spreading to a radius of 80 feet. The blizzard spreads around corners. The area becomes difficult terrain and is heavily obscured. Ranged weapon attacks in the area are impossible. The frigid winds count as a severe distraction for the purposes of maintaining concentration on spells. These winds (ranging from 20 to 50 miles per hour) automatically disperse fog, mists, and similar phenomena in the area whether mundane or magical.
When the blizzard appears, each creature within it must make a Constitution saving throw. A creature takes 11d8 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
For each round thereafter, while you maintain concentration on this spell, a creature must make a Constitution saving throw when it enters the spell's area for the first time on a turn or ends its turn there. A creature takes 3d8 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Wildfire
9-level Evocation
A creature within range burns. While it is burning, at the start of each of its turns, it makes a Constitution saving throw. On a failure, it takes 15d8 fire damage. On a success, it takes half as much damage and the effect ends for that creature.
If a target takes fire damage from this spell, choose one creature you can see within 30 feet of target that is not already burning. The new target begins burning, taking damage and spreading the fire in the same manner as the original target.
