Nahal's Reckless Dweomer
0-level (Cantrip) Evocation
Intentionally create a wild surge, with a slight chance of casting the intended spell.
This spell is the wild mage's ultimate last-resort spell. When cast, the mage attempts a rapid weaving of the pattern which releases a sudden flood of wild magical energy in the hope of seizing and shaping that energy into a desired spell effect. Creating the desired spell effect is highly unlikely, but something almost always occurs in the process.
Before casting the spell, the sorcerer announces the spell effect they are trying to create. The mage must be able to cast the spell, but not have the spell slots for the spell. After announcing the spell, along with the target and any other conditions required by the spell, the wild mage casts Nahal's reckless dweomer. A burst of magical energy is released, which the wild mage tries to manipulate into the desired form. The actual effect of the spell is rolled randomly on Wild Surge Results.
If the result indicates success, the mage has shaped the magical energy into the desired effect. If not, then the wild surge is released - The result may be beneficial to the mage (cure wounds on themselves) or it may be completely disastrous (the mage explodes this is the risk the mage takes in casting Nahal's reckless dweomer.
The higher spell slot level the spell being attempted, the more likely the resulting failure. Modify the results by reducing the resulting roll by 5 x the spell slot level used.

When the familiar drops to 0 hit points, it disappears, leaving behind no physical form. It reappears after you cast this spell again.
While your familiar is within 100 feet of you, you can communicate with it telepathically. Additionally, as an action, you can see through your familiar’s eyes and hear what it hears until the start of your next turn, gaining the benefits of any special senses that the familiar has. During this time, you are deaf and blind with regard to your own senses.
As an action, you can temporarily dismiss your familiar. It disappears into a pocket dimension where it awaits your summons. Alternatively, you can dismiss it forever. As an action while it is temporarily dismissed, you can cause it to reappear in any unoccupied space within 30 feet of you.

When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the Healing increases by 1d4 for each slot level above 1st.
Hush
1-level Illusion
You touch a creature and imbue it with silence. For the duration, the target has advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks to avoid detection while moving.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher you can target one additional creature for each spell slot level above 1st.
Ice Wave
1-level Evocation
After you touch the ground, a thin sheet of ice rapidly extends forth in a 15 foot cone, then ruptures, causing spikes of ice to launch skyward. Each creature in the cone must make a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 3d6 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 1st.
Lesser Confusion
1-level Enchantment
This spell assaults and twists a creature's mind, spawning delusions and provoking uncontrolled action. One creature of your choice within range must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw when you cast this spell or be affected by this spell.
An affected target can't take reactions and must roll a d10 at the start of its turn to determine its behaviour for that turn.
| d10 | Behaviour |
|---|---|
| 1 | The creature uses all its movement to move in a random direction, as determined by a d8 roll, with 1 being north, 2 being northeast, continuing clockwise around the compass, with 8 being northwest. The creature doesn't take an action this turn. |
| 2–6 | The creature doesn't move or take actions this turn, and only babbles incoherently. |
| 7–8 | The creature uses its action to make a melee attack against a randomly determined creature within its reach. If there is no creature within its reach, the creature does nothing this turn. |
| 9–10 | The creature can act and move normally. |
Net of Shadows
1-level Illusion
You cast the spell, and the surrounding shadows shift at your command, flying toward your targets and wrapping themselves around them. You target up to three creatures that are no more than 30 feet apart when you cast the spell. Each target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, a target is wrapped in shadows, providing them three quarters cover from all attacks. The shifting magical shadows also inhibit the targets' ability to ascertain their surroundings. The targets can only see 5 feet through the shadows that coat them, and foes within that range have three quarters cover from all attacks made by the targets.
A target can make a Wisdom saving throw at the end of each of its turns to attempt to disbelieve the net, ending the effect on a success.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, you can target one additional creature for each slot level above 1st. The creatures must be within 30 feet of each other when you target them.
Nilin's Bolt
1-level Enchantment
You launch a bolt of energy towards a creature, temporarily remixing it's memories, confusing it.
Make a spell attack roll against an enemy within range. On a hit, they take 2d8 psychic damage, and have disadvantage on saving throws until the start of your next turn.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 per level above 1st.
Shadow Spray
1-level Conjuration
You cause a multitude of ribbon-like shadows to instantaneously explode outward in a 5 foot radius sphere from a point that you choose, restraining nearby creatures. Each creature within the radius must succeed on a Constitution saving throw, or be restrained until the end of your next turn. The shadows vanish once they are no longer restraining a given creature.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, you can increase the radius of the sphere by 5 feet for each slot level above 1st.
Silent Image
1-level Illusion
You create the image of an object, a creature, or some other visible phenomenon that is no larger than a 15-foot cube. The image appears at a spot within range and lasts for the duration. The image is purely visual; it isn’t accompanied by sound, smell, or other sensory effects.
You can use your action to cause the image to move to any spot within range. As the image changes location, you can alter its appearance so that its movements appear natural for the image. For example, if you create an image of a creature and move it, you can alter the image so that it appears to be walking.
Physical interaction with the image reveals it to be an illusion because things can pass through it. A creature that uses its action to examine the image can determine that it is an illusion with a successful Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC. If a creature discerns the illusion for what it is, the creature can see through the image.
Sleep
1-level Enchantment
This spell sends creatures into a magical slumber. Roll 5d8; the total is how many hit points of creatures this spell can affect. Creatures within 20 feet of a point you choose within range are affected in ascending order of their current hit points (ignoring unconscious creatures).
Starting with the creature that has the lowest current hit points, each creature affected by this spell falls unconscious until the spell ends, the sleeper takes damage, or someone uses an action to shake or slap the sleeper awake. Subtract each creature’s hit points from the total before moving on to the creature with the next lowest hit points. A creature’s hit points must be equal to or less than the remaining total for that creature to be affected.
Undead and creatures immune to being charmed aren’t affected by this spell.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, roll an additional 2d8 for each slot level above 1st.
Tasha's Hideous Laughter
1-level Enchantment
A creature of your choice that you can see within range perceives everything as hilariously funny and falls into fits of laughter if this spell affects it. The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or fall prone, becoming incapacitated and unable to stand up for the duration. A creature with an Intelligence score of 4 or less isn’t affected.
At the end of each of its turns, and each time it takes damage, the target can make another Wisdom saving throw. The target has advantage on the saving throw if it’s triggered by damage. On a success, the spell ends.
Thunderwave
1-level Evocation
A wave of thunderous force sweeps out from you. Each creature in a 15-foot cube originating from you must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 2d8 thunder damage and is pushed 10 feet away from you. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage and isn’t pushed.
In addition, unsecured objects that are completely within the area of effect are automatically pushed 10 feet away from you by the spell’s effect, and the spell emits a thunderous boom audible out to 300 feet.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 1st.
Wrathful Smite
1-level Evocation
The next time you hit with a melee weapon attack during this spell’s duration, your attack deals an extra 1d6 psychic damage. Additionally, if the target is a creature, it must make a Wisdom saving throw or be frightened of you until the spell ends. As an action, the creature can make a Wisdom check against your spell save DC to steel its resolve and end this spell.
2nd Level Moon Elf Sorcerer Spells
AidAid
2-level Abjuration
Your spell bolsters your allies with toughness and resolve. Choose up to three creatures within range. Each target’s hit point maximum and current hit points increase by 5 for the duration.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, a target’s hit points increase by an additional 5 for each slot level above 2nd.
Blur
2-level Illusion
Your body becomes blurred, shifting and wavering to all who can see you. For the duration, any creature has disadvantage on attack rolls against you. An attacker is immune to this effect if it doesn’t rely on sight, as with blindsight, or can see through illusions, as with truesight.
Calm Emotions
2-level Enchantment
You attempt to suppress strong emotions in a group of people. Each humanoid in a 20 foot radius sphere centred on a point you choose within range must make a Charisma saving throw; a creature can choose to fail this saving throw if it wishes. If a creature fails its saving throw, choose one of the following two effects.
You can suppress any effect causing a target to be charmed or frightened. When this spell ends, any suppressed effect resumes, provided that its duration has not expired in the meantime.
Alternatively, you can make a target indifferent about creatures of your choice that it is hostile toward. This indifference ends if the target is attacked or harmed by a spell or if it witnesses any of its friends being harmed. When the spell ends, the creature becomes hostile again, unless the DM rules otherwise.
Darkness
2-level Evocation
Magical darkness spreads from a point you choose within range to fill a 15-foot-radius sphere for the duration. The darkness spreads around corners. A creature with darkvision can’t see through this darkness, and nonmagical light can’t illuminate it.
If the point you choose is on an object you are holding or one that isn’t being worn or carried, the darkness emanates from the object and moves with it. Completely covering the source of the darkness with an opaque object, such as a bowl or a helm, blocks the darkness.
If any of this spell’s area overlaps with an area of light created by a spell of 2nd level or lower, the spell that created the light is dispelled.
Darkvision
2-level Transmutation
You touch a willing creature to grant it the ability to see in the dark. For the duration, that creature has darkvision out to a range of 60 feet.
Detect Thoughts
2-level Divination
For the duration, you can read the thoughts of certain creatures. When you cast the spell and as your action on each turn until the spell ends, you can focus your mind on any one creature that you can see within 30 feet of you. If the creature you choose has an Intelligence of 3 or lower or doesn’t speak any language, the creature is unaffected.
You initially learn the surface thoughts of the creature - what is most on its mind in that moment. As an action, you can either shift your attention to another creature’s thoughts or attempt to probe deeper into the same creature’s mind. If you probe deeper, the target must make a Wisdom saving throw. If it fails, you gain insight into its reasoning (if any), its emotional state, and something that looms large in its mind (such as something it worries over, loves, or hates). If it succeeds, the spell ends. Either way, the target knows that you are probing into its mind, and unless you shift your attention to another creature’s thoughts, the creature can use its action on its turn to make an Intelligence check contested by your Intelligence check; if it succeeds, the spell ends.
Questions verbally directed at the target creature naturally shape the course of its thoughts, so this spell is particularly effective as part of an interrogation.
You can also use this spell to detect the presence of thinking creatures you can’t see. When you cast the spell or as your action during the duration, you can search for thoughts within 30 feet of you. The spell can penetrate barriers, but 2 feet of rock, 2 inches of any metal other than lead, or a thin sheet of lead blocks you. You can’t detect a creature with an Intelligence of 3 or lower or one that doesn’t speak any language.
Once you detect the presence of a creature in this way, you can read its thoughts for the rest of the duration as described above, even if you can’t see it, but it must still be within range.
Enthrall
2-level Enchantment
You weave a distracting string of words, causing creatures of your choice that you can see within range and that can hear you to make a Wisdom saving throw. Any creature that can’t be charmed succeeds on this saving throw automatically, and if you or your companions are fighting a creature, it has advantage on the save. On a failed save, the target has disadvantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks made to perceive any creature other than you until the spell ends or until the target can no longer hear you. The spell ends if you are incapacitated or can no longer speak.
Gust of Wind
2-level Evocation
A line of strong wind 60 feet long and 10 feet wide blasts from you in a direction you choose for the spell’s duration. Each creature that starts its turn in the line must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be pushed 15 feet away from you in a direction following the line.
Any creature in the line must spend 2 feet of movement for every 1 foot it moves when moving closer to you.
The gust disperses gas or vapor, and it extinguishes candles, torches, and similar unprotected flames in the area. It causes protected flames, such as those of lanterns, to dance wildly and has a 50 percent chance to extinguish them.
As a bonus action on each of your turns before the spell ends, you can change the direction in which the line blasts from you.
Hold Person
2-level Enchantment
Choose a humanoid that you can see within range. The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be paralysed for the duration. At the end of each of its turns, the target can make another Wisdom saving throw. On a success, the spell ends on the target.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, you can target on additional humanoid for each slot level above 2nd. The humanoids must be within 30 feet of each other when you target them.
Impart Knowledge
2-level Divination
A way to quickly and silently communicate complex ideas, this spell allows you to communicate complex thoughts (such as maps, diagrams, explanatory images – which may move in a sequence to show a procedure – and the like) silently to a willing recipient upon touch. Uses for this spell include showing the target a creature's likeness to aid in recognition or a clear route to an unfamiliar place. If the recipient is not willing, this spell automatically fails.
Invisibility
2-level Illusion
A creature you touch becomes invisible until the spell ends. Anything the target is wearing or carrying is invisible as long as it is on the target’s person. The spell ends for a target that attacks or casts a spell.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, you can target one additional creature for each slot level above 2nd.
Lesser Restoration
2-level Abjuration
You touch a creature and can end either one disease or one condition afflicting it. The condition can be blinded, deafened, paralysed, or poisoned.
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.
Mirror Image
2-level Illusion
Three illusory duplicates of yourself appear in your space. Until the spell ends, the duplicates move with you and mimic your actions, shifting position so it’s impossible to track which image is real. You can use your action to dismiss the illusory duplicates.
Each time a creature targets you with an attack during the spell’s duration, roll a d20 to determine whether the attack instead targets one of your duplicates.
If you have three duplicates, you must roll a 6 or higher to change the attack’s target to a duplicate. With two duplicates, you must roll an 8 or higher. With one duplicate, you must roll an 11 or higher.
A duplicate’s AC equals 10 + your Dexterity modifier. If an attack hits a duplicate, the duplicate is destroyed. A duplicate can be destroyed only by an attack that hits it. It ignores all other damage and effects. The spell ends when all three duplicates are destroyed.
A creature is unaffected by this spell if it can’t see, if it relies on senses other than sight, such as blindsight, or if it can perceive illusions as false, as with truesight.
Misty Step
2-level Conjuration
Briefly surrounded by silvery mist, you teleport up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space that you can see.
Moonbeam
2-level Evocation
A silvery beam of pale light shines down in a 5 foot radius, 40 foot high cylinder centred on a point within range. Until the spell ends, dim light fills the cylinder.
When a creature enters the spell’s area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, it is engulfed in ghostly flames that cause searing pain, and it must make a Constitution saving throw. It takes 2d10 radiant damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
A shapechanger makes its saving throw with disadvantage. If it fails, it also instantly reverts to its original form and can’t assume a different form until it leaves the spell’s light.
On each of your turns after you cast this spell, you can use an action to move the beam 60 feet in any direction.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d10 for each slot level above 2nd.
Pass Without Trace
2-level Abjuration
A veil of shadows and silence radiates from you, masking you and your com panions from detection. For the duration, each creature you choose within 30 feet of you (including you) has a +10 bonus to Dexterity (Stealth) checks and can’t be tracked except by magical means. A creature that receives this bonus leaves behind no tracks or other traces of its passage.
Phantasmal Force
2-level Illusion
You craft an illusion that takes root in the mind of a creature that you can see within range. The target must make an Intelligence saving throw. On a failed save, you create a phantasmal object, creature, or other visible phenomenon of your choice that is no larger than a 10 foot cube and that is perceivable only to the target for the duration. This spell has no effect on undead or constructs.
The phantasm includes sound, temperature, and other stimuli, also evident only to the creature.
The target can use its action to examine the phantasm with an Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC. If the check succeeds, the target realizes that the phantasm is an illusion, and the spell ends.
While a target is affected by the spell, the target treats the phantasm as if it were real. The target rationalizes any illogical outcomes from interacting with the phantasm. For example, a target attempting to walk across a phantasmal bridge that spans a chasm falls once it steps onto the bridge. If the target survives the fall, it still believes that the bridge exists and comes up with some other explanation for its fall; it was pushed, it slipped, or a strong wind might have knocked it off.
An affected target is so convinced of the phantasm’s reality that it can even take damage from the illusion. A phantasm created to appear as a creature can attack the target. Similarly, a phantasm created to appear as fire, a pool of acid, or lava can burn the target. Each round on your turn, the phantasm can deal 1d6 psychic damage to the target if it is in the phantasm’s area or within 5 feet of the phantasm, provided that the illusion is of a creature or hazard that could logically deal damage, such as by attacking. The target perceives the damage as a type appropriate to the illusion.
Protection from Poison
2-level Abjuration
You touch a creature. If it is poisoned, you neutralize the poison. If more than one poison afflicts the target, you neutralize one poison that you know is present, or you neutralize one at random.
For the duration, the target has advantage on saving throws against being poisoned, and it has resistance to poison damage.
Pulling Shade
2-level Conjuration
You manifest a whirlpool-like, swirling mass of darkness that ensnares and decays your victims. Choose a point on any level ground within range. For the duration, any creature that begins its turn within 40 feet of this point must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be pulled 20 feet closer to its centre. A flying creature has disadvantage on this saving throw.
Any creature that starts its turn within 20 feet of the point, or enters it on its turn, must make a Constitution saving throw. It takes 3d6 necrotic damage on a failure, or half as much on a success.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for every two slot levels above 2nd.
Pursuers
2-level Conjuration
You summon three orbs of warm darkness that seek enemies. Each orb targets the closest hostile creature that they can see within range, and deals 1d8 + 1 necrotic damage to the target. The orbs all strike simultaneously. This spell has no effect on constructs.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the spell creates one more orb for each slot level above 2nd.
Quicksand
2-level Transmutation
You point at a 10 foot square patch of rock, dirt or sand centred on a point within range. The area becomes quicksand for the duration. Quicksand is difficult terrain. When the quicksand appears, each creature standing in its area must succeed on a Strength saving throw or become restrained. A creature that enters the area or ends its turn there must also succeed on a Strength saving throw or become restrained.
Creatures restrained by the quicksand can use its action to make a Strength check against your spell save DC. On a success, it frees itself. On a failure, it sinks further into the quicksand and has disadvantage on subsequent Strength checks made to escape it, until it escapes.
See Invisibility
2-level Divination
For the duration, you see invisible creatures and objects as if they were visible, and you can see into the Ethereal Plane. Ethereal creatures and objects appear ghostly and translucent.
Silence
2-level Illusion
Ritual - does not require spell slot, takes 10 minutes longerFor the duration, no sound can be created within or pass through a 20-foot-radius sphere centred on a point you choose within range. Any creature or object entirely inside the sphere is immune to thunder damage, and creatures are deafened while entirely inside it. Casting a spell that includes a verbal component is impossible there.
Suggestion
2-level Enchantment
You suggest a course of activity (limited to a sentence or two) and magically influence a creature you can see within range that can hear and understand you. Creatures that can’t be charmed are immune to this effect. The suggestion must be worded in such a manner as to make the course of action sound reasonable. Asking the creature to stab itself, throw itself onto a spear, immolate itself, or do some other obviously harmful act ends the spell.
The target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, it pursues the course of action you described to the best of its ability. The suggested course of action can continue for the entire duration. If the suggested activity can be completed in a shorter time, the spell ends when the subject finishes what it was asked to do.
You can also specify conditions that will trigger a special activity during the duration. For example, you might suggest that a knight give her warhorse to the first beggar she meets. If the condition isn’t met before the spell expires, the activity isn’t performed.
If you or any of your companions damage the target, the spell ends.
3rd Level Moon Elf Sorcerer Spells
BlinkBlink
3-level Transmutation
Roll a d20 at the end of each of your turns for the duration of the spell. On a roll of 11 or higher, you vanish from your current plane of existence and appear in the Ethereal Plane (the spell fails and the casting is wasted if you were already on that plane). At the start of your next turn, and when the spell ends if you are on the Ethereal Plane, you return to an unoccupied space of your choice that you can see within 10 feet of the space you vanished from. If no unoccupied space is available within that range, you appear in the nearest unoccupied space (chosen at random if more than one space is equally near). You can dismiss this spell as an action.
While on the Ethereal Plane, you can see and hear the plane you originated from, which is cast in shades of grey, and you can’t see anything there m ore than 60 feet away. You can only affect and be affected by other creatures on the Ethereal Plane. Creatures that aren’t there can’t perceive you or interact with you, unless they have the ability to do so.
Fear
3-level Illusion
You project a phantasmal image of a creature’s worst fears. Each creature in a 30 foot cone must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or drop whatever it is holding and become frightened for the duration.
While frightened by this spell, a creature must take the Dash action and move away from you by the safest available route on each of its turns, unless there is nowhere to move. If the creature ends its turn in a location where it doesn’t have line of sight to you, the creature can make a Wisdom saving throw. On a successful save, the spell ends for that creature.
Freidyne
3-level Evocation
With a somatic gesture, you evoke a spherical blast of white light at a point within range. Each creature in a 20 foot radius sphere centred on that point must make a Constitution saving throw. A target takes 5d6 radiant damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Creatures have disadvantage unless they are a celestial, construct, dragon, or undead.
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.
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.
Hunger of Hadar
3-level Conjuration
You open a gateway to the dark between the stars, a region infested with unknown horrors. A 20 foot radius sphere of blackness and bitter cold appears, centred on a point with range and lasting for the duration. This void is filled with a cacophony of soft whispers and slurping noises that can be heard up to 30 feet away. No light, magical or otherwise, can illuminate the area, and creatures fully within the area are blinded.
The void creates a warp in the fabric of space, and the area is difficult terrain. Any creature that starts its turn in the area takes 2d6 cold damage. Any creature that ends its turn in the area must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or take 2d6 acid damage as milky, otherworldly tentacles rub against it.
Major Image
3-level Illusion
You create the image of an object, a creature, or som e other visible phenomenon that is no larger than a 20 foot cube. The image appears at a spot that you can see within range and lasts for the duration. It seems completely real, including sounds, smells, and temperature appropriate to the thing depicted. You can’t create sufficient heat or cold to cause damage, a sound loud enough to deal thunder damage or deafen a creature, or a smell that might sicken a creature (like a troglodyte’s stench).
As long as you are within range of the illusion, you can use your action to cause the image to move to any other spot within range. As the image changes location, you can alter its appearance so that its movements appear natural for the image. For example, if you create an im age of a creature and move it, you can alter the image so that it appears to be walking. Similarly, you can cause the illusion to make different sounds at different times, even making it carry on a conversation, for example.
Physical interaction with the image reveals it to be an illusion, because things can pass through it. A creature that uses its action to examine the image can determine that it is an illusion with a successful Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC. If a creature discerns the illusion for what it is, the creature can see through the image, and its other sensory qualities become faint to the creature.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, the spell lasts until dispelled, without requiring your concentration.
Mass Healing Word
3-level Evocation
As you call out words of restoration, up to six creatures of your choice that you can see within range regain hit points equal to 1d4 + your spellcasting ability modifier. This spell has no effect on undead or constructs.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the healing increases by 1d4 for each slot level above 3rd.
Mind Pain
3-level Enchantment
A bolt hits a creature in range, and great pain takes over the targets mind. The target must make a Intelligence saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 6d6 psychic damage and falls prone. If the target succeeds on its saving throw, it takes half as much damage and isn't knocked prone.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher the target takes an additional 1d6 damage for each slot level above 3rd.
Nondetection
3-level Abjuration
For the duration, you hide a target that you touch from divination magic. The target can be a willing creature or a place or an object no larger than 10 feet in any dimension. The target can’t be targeted by any divination magic or perceived through magical scrying sensors.
Psyche Drain
3-level Necromancy
You attempt to siphon life force from a sentient creature to slightly heal your wounds. Make a melee spell attack against a creature within your reach. On a hit, the target takes 6d4 psychic damage, and the target of this spell must succeed on an Intelligence saving throw. On a failed save, you regain hit points equal to one-quarter the amount of psychic damage dealt, rounded up.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 2d4 for each slot level above 3rd.
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.
Revivify
3-level Conjuration
You touch a creature that has died within the last minute. That creature returns to life with 1 hit point. This spell can’t return to life a creature that has died of old age, nor can it restore any missing body parts.
Searing Light
3-level Evocation
Project a blast of sunlight or moonlight from your open palm. Make a ranged spell attack against a creature within range, dealing 5d8 radiant damage on a hit. An undead creature takes an additional 2d8 radiant damage.
Creatures hit by this spell must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, it becomes blinded until the end of its next turn. Undead and creatures with 'Sunlight Sensitivity' make this save at disadvantage.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th or higher, it deals an additional 1d8 radiant damage for every level above 3rd.
Sending
3-level Evocation
You send a short message of twenty-five words or less to a creature with which you are familiar. The creature hears the message in its mind, recognizes you as the sender if it knows you, and can answer in a like manner immediately. The spell enables creatures with Intelligence scores of at least 1 to understand the meaning of your message.
You can send the message across any distance and even to other planes of existence, but if the target is on a different plane than you, there is a 5 percent chance that the message doesn’t arrive.
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.
Tongues
3-level Divination
This spell grants the creature you touch the ability to understand any spoken language it hears. Moreover, when the target speaks, any creature that knows at least one language and can hear the target understands what it says.
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 Moon Elf Sorcerer Spells
CompulsionCompulsion
4-level Enchantment
Creatures of your choice that you can see within range and that can hear you must make a Wisdom saving throw. A target automatically succeeds on this saving throw if it can’t be charmed. On a failed save, a target is affected by this spell. Until the spell ends, you can use a bonus action on each of your turns to designate a direction that is horizontal to you. Each affected target must use as much of its movement as possible to move in that direction on its next turn. It can take its action before it moves. After moving in this way, it can make another Wisdom saving to try to end the effect.
A target isn’t compelled to move into an obviously deadly hazard, such as a fire or pit, but it will provoke opportunity attacks to move in the designated direction.
Confusion
4-level Enchantment
This spell assaults and twists creatures' minds, spawning delusions and provoking uncontrolled action. Each creature in a 10-foot-radius sphere centred on a point you choose within range must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw when you cast this spell or be affected by it.
An affected target can’t take reactions and must roll a d10 at the start of each of its turns to determine its behavior for that turn.
- 1 - The creature uses all its movement to move in a random direction. To determine the direction, roll a d8 and assign a direction to each die face. The creature doesn’t take an action this turn. 2-6 - The creature doesn’t move or take actions this turn.
- 7-8 - The creature uses its action to make a melee attack against a randomly determined creature within its reach. If there is no creature within its reach, the creature does nothing this turn.
- 9-10 - The creature can act and move normally.
At the end of each of its turns, an affected target can make a Wisdom saving throw. If it succeeds, this effect ends for that target.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the radius of the sphere increases by 5 feet for each slot level above 4th.
Dimension Door
4-level Conjuration
You teleport yourself from your current location to any other spot within range. You arrive at exactly the spot desired. It can be a place you can see, one you can visualize, or one you can describe by stating distance and direction, such as “200 feet straight downward” or “upward to the northwest at a 45-degree angle, 300 feet”.
You can bring along objects as long as their weight doesn’t exceed what you can carry. You can also bring one willing creature of your size or smaller who is carrying gear up to its carrying capacity. The creature must be within 5 feet of you when you cast this spell.
If you would arrive in a place already occupied by an object or a creature, you and any creature traveling with you each take 4d6 force damage, and the spell fails to teleport you.
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.
Greater Invisibility
4-level Illusion
You or a creature you touch becomes invisible until the spell ends. Anything the target is wearing or carrying is invisible as long as it is on the target’s person.
Hallucinatory Terrain
4-level Illusion
You make natural terrain in a 150 foot cube in range look, sound, and smell like som e other sort of natural terrain. Thus, open fields or a road can be made to resemble a swamp, hill, crevasse, or some other difficult or impassable terrain. A pond can be made to seem like a grassy meadow, a precipice like a gentle slope, or a rock-strewn gully like a wide and smooth road. Manufactured structures, equipment, and creatures within the area aren’t changed in appearance.
The tactile characteristics of the terrain are unchanged, so creatures entering the area are likely to see through the illusion. If the difference isn’t obvious by touch, a creature carefully examining the illusion can attempt an Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC to disbelieve it. A creature who discerns the illusion for what it is, sees it as a vague image superimposed on the terrain.
Illumination
4-level Evocation
A creature or object you touch begins to shed bright, pure light out to a radius of 60 feet, and dim light out to a radius of 120 feet. This light is moonlight. Several effects occur within the bright light created by this spell:
- Anything within the bright light faintly glows, and the sound of its movement echoes. Every creature gains a +5 bonus to its passive Perception and advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks to notice anything touched by the light.
- Any invisible creature within this bright light appears as a shadowy figure resembling its concealed form, negating the effect of being invisible to creatures that can see the figure.
- Any creature or object that is magically altered to change its form (or apparent form) appears as a stark black version of itself while it remains within the bright light.
- If any of this bright light overlaps with an illusion or an area of darkness created by a spell cast at a lower level, the spell that created the darkness or illusion is dispelled.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th or 7th level, its duration increases to 1 hour. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 8th or 9th level, its duration increases to 8 hours.
Phantasmal Killer
4-level Illusion
You tap into the nightmares of a creature you can see within range and create an illusory manifestation of its deepest fears, visible only to that creature. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the target becomes frightened for the duration. At the start of each of the target’s turns before the spell ends, the target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or take 4d10 psychic damage. On a successful save, the spell ends.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d10 for each slot level above 4th.
Shadow Well
4-level Illusion
Ritual - does not require spell slot, takes 10 minutes longerYou cause a single target creature's shadow to become a temporary gateway to a pocket realm within the Shadowfell. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, they are pulled into the gateway. Inside the pocket realm, the target sees a deserted, gloomy duplicate of the real world, while shadowy phantasms stalk and taunt it without causing real harm.
On each of its turns, the target can use its action to attempt a Wisdom saving throw, ending this effect on a success. When the target returns to the real world, it must succeed on another Wisdom saving throw or become frightened for 1d4 rounds. Upon leaving the pocket realm, the target reappears in the spot it had been in when the shadow well spell was cast. If this space is occupied, it instead appears in the nearest unoccupied space to that point. Spells and abilities that move a creature within a plane, such as teleport and dimension door, do not help a creature to escape a shadow well spell, although a plane shift spell allows it to flee to another plane as normal. The target may still become frightened upon leaving in such a manner.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, you can target one additional creature for each slot level above 4th. The creatures must be within 30 feet of each other when you target them.
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 Moon Elf Sorcerer Spells
AstromancyAstromancy
5-level Divination
Ritual - does not require spell slot, takes 10 minutes longerBy studying the patterns of the stars, you are granted cosmic insight and gain knowledge of the locale and its people. The spell gives you local knowledge of the area within 3 miles of you. To employ this spell, you must have an unobstructed view of the night sky. You instantly gain knowledge of up to three facts of your choice about any of the following subjects as they relate to the area:
- prevalent peoples, as well as important individuals, spellcasters, and leaders
- major religions and established cults
- major factions currently or very recently active
- influence from other planes of existence
- buildings and communities
- magical sites and mystically significant locations
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.
Contact Other Plane
5-level Divination
Ritual - does not require spell slot, takes 10 minutes longerYou mentally contact a demigod, the spirit of a long-dead sage, or some other mysterious entity from another plane. Contacting this extraplanar intelligence can strain or even break your mind. When you cast this spell, make a DC 15 Intelligence saving throw. On a failure, you take 6d6 psychic damage and are insane until you finish a long rest. While insane, you can’t take actions, can’t understand what other creatures say, can’t read, and speak only in gibberish. A greater restoration spell cast on you ends this effect.
On a successful save, you can ask the entity up to five questions. You must ask your questions before the spell ends. The DM answers each question with one word, such as “yes,” “no,” “maybe,” “never,” “irrelevant,” or “unclear” (if the entity doesn’t know the answer to the question). If a one-word answer would be misleading, the DM might instead offer a short phrase as an answer.
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.
Dream
5-level Illusion
This spell shapes a creature’s dreams. Choose a creature known to you as the target of this spell. The target must be on the same plane of existence as you. Creatures that don’t sleep, such as elves, can’t be contacted by this spell. You, or a willing creature you touch, enters a trance state, acting as a m essenger. While in the trance, the messenger is aware of his or her surroundings, but can’t take actions or move.
If the target is asleep, the messenger appears in the target’s dreams and can converse with the target as long as it remains asleep, through the duration of the spell. The messenger can also shape the environment of the dream, creating landscapes, objects, and other images. The messenger can emerge from the trance at any time, ending the effect of the spell early. The target recalls the dream perfectly upon waking. If the target is awake when you cast the spell, the messenger knows it, and can either end the trance (and the spell) or wait for the target to fall asleep, at which point the messenger appears in the target’s dreams.
You can make the messenger appear monstrous and terrifying to the target. If you do, the messenger can deliver a message of no more than ten words and then the target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, echoes of the phantasmal monstrosity spawn a nightmare that lasts the duration of the target’s sleep and prevents the target from gaining any benefit from that rest. In addition, when the target wakes up, it takes 3d6 psychic damage.
If you have a body part, lock of hair, clipping from a nail, or similar portion of the target’s body, the target makes its saving throw with disadvantage.
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.
Legend Lore
5-level Divination
Name or describe a person, place, or object. The spell brings to your mind a brief summary of the significant lore about the thing you named. The lore might consist of current tales, forgotten stories, or even secret lore that has never been widely known. If the thing you named isn’t of legendary importance, you gain no information. The more information you already have about the thing, the more precise and detailed the information you receive is.
The information you learn is accurate but might be couched in figurative language. For example, if you have a mysterious magic axe on hand, the spell might yield this information: “Woe to the evildoer whose hand touches the axe, for even the haft slices the hand of the evil ones. Only a true Child of Stone, lover and beloved of Moradin, may awaken the true powers of the axe, and only with the sacred word Rudnogg on the lips.”
Mislead
5-level Illusion
You become invisible at the same time that an illusory double of you appears where you are standing. The double lasts for the duration, but the invisibility ends if you attack or cast a spell.
You can use your action to move your illusory double up to twice your speed and make it gesture, speak, and behave in whatever way you choose.
You can see through its eyes and hear through its ears as if you were located where it is. On each of your turns as a bonus action, you can switch from using its senses to using your own, or back again. While you are using its senses, you are blinded and deafened in regard to your own surroundings.
Modify Memory
5-level Enchantment
You attempt to reshape another creature’s memories. One creature that you can see must make a Wisdom saving throw. If you are fighting the creature, it has advantage on the saving throw. On a failed save, the target becomes charmed by you for the duration. The charmed target is incapacitated and unaware of its surroundings, though it can still hear you. If it takes any damage or is targeted by another spell, this spell ends, and none of the target’s memories are modified.
While this charm lasts, you can affect the target’s memory of an event that it experienced within the last 24 hours and that lasted no more than 10 minutes. You can permanently eliminate all memory of the event, allow the target to recall the event with perfect clarity and exacting detail, change its memory of the details of the event, or create a memory of some other event.
You must speak to the target to describe how its memories are affected, and it must be able to understand your language for the modified memories to take root. Its mind fills in any gaps in the details of your description. If the spell ends before you have finished describing the modified memories, the creature’s memory isn’t altered. Otherwise, the modified memories take hold when the spell ends.
A modified memory doesn’t necessarily affect how a creature behaves, particularly if the memory contradicts the creature’s natural inclinations, alignment, or beliefs. An illogical modified memory, such as implanting a memory of how much the creature enjoyed dousing itself in acid, is dismissed, perhaps as a bad dream. The DM might deem a modified memory too nonsensical to affect a creature in a significant manner.
A remove curse or greater restoration spell cast on the target restores the creature’s true memory.
If you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, you can alter the target’s memories of an event that took place up to 7 days ago (6th level), 30 days ago (7th level), 1 year ago (8th level), or any time in the creature’s past (9th level).
Moonblast
5-level Evocation
You conjure a pillar of moonlight to strike your foes with lunar power. Each creature in a 10 foot radius, 40 foot high cylinder of moonlight centred on a point within range must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 3d6 cold damage and 3d6 radiant damage on a failed save and is blinded until the end of its next turn. On a successful save, a creature takes half as much damage and isn't blinded.
Illusions cast using a lower level spell slot than this spell in the spell's area are dispelled.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, the cold damage or the radiant damage (your choice) increases by 1d6 for each level above 5th.
Passwall
5-level Transmutation
A passage appears at a point of your choice that you can see on a wooden, plaster, or stone surface (such as a wall, a ceiling, or a floor) within range, and lasts for the duration. You choose the opening’s dimensions: up to 5 feet wide, 8 feet tall, and 20 feet deep. The passage creates no instability in a structure surrounding it.
When the opening disappears, any creatures or objects still in the passage created by the spell are safely ejected to an unoccupied space nearest to the surface on which you cast the spell.
Rary's Telepathic Bond
5-level Divination
Ritual - does not require spell slot, takes 10 minutes longerYou forge a telepathic link among up to eight willing creatures of your choice within range, psychically linking each creature to all the others for the duration. Creatures with Intelligence scores of 2 or less aren’t affected by this spell.
Until the spell ends, the targets can communicate telepathically through the bond whether or not they have a common language. The communication is possible over any distance, though it can’t extend to other planes of existence.
Seeming
5-level Illusion
This spell allows you to change the appearance of any number of creatures that you can see within range. You give each target you choose a new, illusory appearance. An unwilling target can make a Charisma saving throw, and if it succeeds, it is unaffected by this spell.
The spell disguises physical appearance as well as clothing, armor, weapons, and equipment. You can make each creature seem 1 foot shorter or taller and appear thin, fat, or in between. You can’t change a target’s body type, so you must choose a form that has the same basic arrangement of limbs. Otherwise, the extent of the illusion is up to you. The spell lasts for the duration, unless you use your action to dismiss it sooner.
The changes wrought by this spell fail to hold up to physical inspection. For example, if you use this spell to add a hat to a creature’s outfit, objects pass through the hat, and anyone who touches it would feel nothing or would feel the creature’s head and hair. If you use this spell to appear thinner than you are, the hand of someone who reaches out to touch you would bump into you while it was seemingly still in midair.
A creature can use its action to inspect a target and make an Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC. If it succeeds, it becomes aware that the target is disguised.
Telekinesis
5-level Transmutation
You gain the ability to move or manipulate creatures or objects by thought. When you cast the spell, and as your action each round for the duration, you can exert your will on one creature or object that you can see within range, causing the appropriate effect below. You can affect the same target round after round, or choose a new one at any time. If you switch targets, the prior target is no longer affected by the spell.
Creature. You can try to move a Huge or smaller creature. Make an ability check with your spellcasting ability contested by the creature’s Strength check. If you win the contest, you move the creature up to 30 feet in any direction, including upward but not beyond the range of this spell. Until the end of your next turn, the creature is restrained in your telekinetic grip. A creature lifted upward is suspended in mid-air.
On subsequent rounds, you can use your action to attempt to maintain your telekinetic grip on the creature by repeating the contest.
Object. You can try to move an object that weighs up to 1,000 pounds. If the object isn’t being worn or carried, you automatically move it up to 30 feet in any direction, but not beyond the range of this spell.
If the object is worn or carried by a creature, you must make an ability check with your spellcasting ability contested by that creature’s Strength check. If you succeed, you pull the object away from that creature and can move it up to 30 feet in any direction but not beyond the range of this spell.
You can exert fine control on objects with your telekinetic grip, such as manipulating a simple tool, opening a door or a container, stowing or retrieving an item from an open container, or pouring the contents from a vial.
6th Level Moon Elf Sorcerer Spells
Arcane GateArcane Gate
6-level Conjuration
You create linked teleportation portals that remain open for the duration. Choose two points on the ground that you can see, one point within 10 feet of you and one point within 500 feet of you. A circular portal, 10 feet in diameter, opens over each point. If the portal would open in the space occupied by a creature, the spell fails, and the casting is lost.
The portals are two-dimensional glowing rings filled with mist, hovering inches from the ground and perpendicular to it at the points you choose. A ring is visible only from one side (your choice), which is the side that functions as a portal.
Any creature or object entering the portal exits from the other portal as if the two were adjacent to each other; passing through a portal from the nonportal side has no effect. The mist that fills each portal is opaque and blocks vision through it. On your turn, you can rotate the rings as a bonus action so that the active side faces in a different direction.
Astral Projection
9-level Necromancy
You and up to eight willing creatures within range project your astral bodies into the Astral Plane (the spell fails and the casting is wasted if you are already on that plane). The material body you leave behind is unconscious and in a state of suspended animation; it doesn’t need food or air and doesn’t age.
Your astral body resembles your mortal form in almost every way, replicating your game statistics and possessions. The principal difference is the addition of a silvery cord that extends from between your shoulder blades and trails behind you, fading to invisibility after 1 foot. This cord is your tether to your material body. As long as the tether remains intact, you can find your way home. If the cord is cut—something that can happen only when an effect specifically states that it does—your soul and body are separated, killing you instantly.
Your astral form can freely travel through the Astral Plane and can pass through portals there leading to any other plane. If you enter a new plane or return to the plane you were on when casting this spell, your body and possessions are transported along the silver cord, allowing you to re-enter your body as you enter the new plane. Your astral form is a separate incarnation. Any damage or other effects that apply to it have no effect on your physical body, nor do they persist when you return to it.
The spell ends for you and your companions when you use your action to dismiss it. When the spell ends, the affected creature returns to its physical body, and it awakens.
The spell might also end early for you or one of your companions. A successful dispel magic spell used against an astral or physical body ends the spell for that creature. If a creature’s original body or its astral form drops to 0 hit points, the spell ends for that creature. If the spell ends and the silver cord is intact, the cord pulls the creature’s astral form back to its body, ending its state of suspended animation.
If you are returned to your body prematurely, your companions remain in their astral forms and must find their own way back to their bodies, usually by dropping to 0 hit points.
Find the Path
6-level Divination
This spell allows you to find the shortest, most direct physical route to a specific fixed location that you are familiar with on the same plane of existence. If you name a destination on another plane of existence, a destination that moves (such as a mobile fortress), or a destination that isn’t specific (such as “a green dragon’s lair”), the spell fails.
For the duration, as long as you are on the same plane of existence as the destination, you know how far it is and in what direction it lies. While you are traveling there, whenever you are presented with a choice of paths along the way, you automatically determine which path is the shortest and most direct route (but not necessarily the safest route) to the destination.
Mass Suggestion
6-level Enchantment
You suggest a course of activity (limited to a sentence or two) and magically influence up to twelve creatures of your choice that you can see within range and that can hear and understand you. Creatures that can’t be charmed are immune to this effect. The suggestion must be worded in such a manner as to make the course of action sound reasonable. Asking the creature to stab itself, throw itself onto a spear, immolate itself, or do some other obviously harmful act automatically negates the effect of the spell.
Each target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, it pursues the course of action you described to the best of its ability. The suggested course of action can continue for the entire duration. If the suggested activity can be completed in a shorter time, the spell ends when the subject finishes what it was asked to do.
You can also specify conditions that will trigger a special activity during the duration. For example, you might suggest that a group of soldiers give all their money to the first beggar they meet. If the condition isn’t met before the spell ends, the activity isn’t performed.
If you or any of your companions damage a creature affected by this spell, the spell ends for that creature.
When you cast this spell using a 7th level spell slot, the duration is 10 days. When you use an 8th level spell slot, the duration is 30 days. When you use a 9th level spell slot, the duration is a year and a day.
Mind Kill
6-level Necromancy
This spell scrambles a target's mind. The target must make an Intelligence saving throw, or take 5d12 psychic damage, and become incapacitated for the duration of the spell. Targets also become affected by confusion; re-roll if you get a 6. Up to 10 creatures may be effected at a time. Casting on an 11th target snaps the 1st target back to reality. Undead and constructs are immune to this spell.
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.
Programmed Illusion
6-level Illusion
You create an illusion of an object, a creature, or some other visible phenomenon within range that activates when a specific condition occurs. The illusion is imperceptible until then. It must be no larger than a 30 foot cube, and you decide when you cast the spell how the illusion behaves and what sounds it makes. This scripted performance can last up to 5 minutes.
When the condition you specify occurs, the illusion springs into existence and performs in the manner you described. Once the illusion finishes performing, it disappears and remains dormant for 10 minutes. After this time, the illusion can be activated again.
The triggering condition can be as general or as detailed as you like, though it must be based on visual or audible conditions that occur within 30 feet of the area. For example, you could create an illusion of yourself to appear and warn off others who attempt to open a trapped door, or you could set the illusion to trigger only when a creature says the correct word or phrase.
Physical interaction with the image reveals it to be an illusion, because things can pass through it. A creature that uses its action to examine the image can determine that it is an illusion with a successful Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC. If a creature discerns the illusion for what it is, the creature can see through the image, and any noise it makes sounds hollow to the creature.
True Seeing
6-level Divination
This spell gives the willing creature you touch the ability to see things as they actually are. For the duration, the creature has truesight, notices secret doors hidden by magic, and can see into the Ethereal Plane, all out to a range of 120 feet.
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.
7th Level Moon Elf Sorcerer Spells
Dark AbyssDark Abyss
7-level Conjuration
A pit of eternal darkness from which there is no escape, filled to the brim with the influence of evil.
A hole through time and space is created, and centred on a point you can see and spreading to a radius of 10 feet. Thunder cracks from the dark hole, and strong winds roar, pulling nearby creatures towards it.
Each creature within 60 feet must make a Strength saving throw equal to your spell DC at the start of every round that they are within the range of the vortex.
Creatures within reach of an anchored object may use their reaction to grab onto the object, granting them advantage on the save. On a success, creatures slide 5 feet towards the centre, but are able to move away from the centre of the abyss, treating each movement away as difficult terrain (In case of being grabbed to an anchored object, it does not move). On a failed save, the creature is dragged 15 feet toward the dark hole, cannot move on its turn, and gets sucked into the dark dimension when they are within the boundaries of the hole.
While in the hole, creatures take 7d10 necrotic damage each turn. They can escape the dimension by succeeding the saving throw on their turn. Creatures within the dimension have disadvantage on their saving throws to escape. Creatures within the dimension when the duration is up are ejected into an unoccupied space within 5 feet of the entrance to the abyss (or the nearest unoccupied space if none are left), take 3d6 bludgeoning damage from the sudden return to reality, and are stunned until the end of their next turn.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 8th or higher, increase the distance pulled by 5 feet, and the radius of its influence by 10.
Etherealness
7-level Transmutation
You step into the border regions of the Ethereal Plane, in the area where it overlaps with your current plane. You remain in the Border Ethereal for the duration or until you use your action to dismiss the spell. During this time, you can move in any direction. If you move up or down, every foot of movement costs an extra foot. You can see and hear the plane you originated from, but everything there looks gray, and you can’t see anything more than 60 feet away.
While on the Ethereal Plane, you can only affect and be affected by other creatures on that plane. Creatures that aren't on the Ethereal Plane can’t perceive you and can’t interact with you, unless a special ability or magic has given them the ability to do so.
You ignore all objects and effects that aren’t on the Ethereal Plane, allowing you to move through objects you perceive on the plane you originated from.
When the spell ends, you immediately return to the plane you originated from in the spot you currently occupy. If you occupy the same spot as a solid object or creature when this happens, you are immediately shunted to the nearest unoccupied space that you can occupy and take force damage equal to twice the number of feet you are moved.
This spell has no effect if you cast it while you are on the Ethereal Plane or a plane that doesn’t border it, such as one of the Outer Planes.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 8th level or higher, you can target up to three willing creatures (including you) for each slot level above 7th. The creatures must be within 10 feet of you when you cast the spell.
Mirage Arcane
7-level Illusion
You make terrain in an area up to 1 mile square look, sound, smell, and even feel like some other sort of terrain. The terrain’s general shape remains the same, however. Open fields or a road could be made to resemble a swamp, hill, crevasse, or some other difficult or impassable terrain. A pond can be made to seem like a grassy meadow, a precipice like a gentle slope, or a rock-strewn gully like a wide and smooth road.
Similarly, you can alter the appearance of structures, or add them where none are present. The spell doesn’t disguise, conceal, or add creatures.
The illusion includes audible, visual, tactile, and olfactory elements, so it can turn clear ground into difficult terrain (or vice versa) or otherwise im pede movement through the area. Any piece of the illusory terrain (such as a rock or stick) that is removed from the spell’s area disappears immediately.
Creatures with truesight can see through the illusion to the terrain’s true form; however, all other elements of the illusion remain, so while the creature is aware of the illusion’s presence, the creature can still physically interact with the illusion.
Plane Shift
7-level Conjuration
You and up to eight willing creatures who link hands in a circle are transported to a different plane of existence. You can specify a target destination in general terms, such as the City of Brass on the Elemental Plane of Fire or the palace of Dispater on the second level of the Nine Hells, and you appear in or near that destination. If you are trying to reach the City of Brass, for example, you might arrive in its Street of Steel, before its Gate of Ashes, or looking at the city from across the Sea of Fire, at the DM’s discretion.
Alternatively, if you know the sigil sequence of a teleportation circle on another plane of existence, this spell can take you to that circle. If the teleportation circle is too small to hold all the creatures you transported, they appear in the closest unoccupied spaces next to the circle.
You can use this spell to banish an unwilling creature to another plane. Choose a creature within your reach and make a melee spell attack against it. On a hit, the creature must make a Charisma saving throw. If the creature fails this save, it is transported to a random location on the plane of existence you specify. A creature so transported must find its own way back to your current plane of existence.
Project Image
7-level Illusion
You create an illusory copy of yourself that lasts for the duration. The copy can appear at any location within range that you have seen before, regardless of intervening obstacles. The illusion looks and sounds like you but is intangible. If the illusion takes any damage, it disappears, and the spell ends.
You can use your action to move this illusion up to twice your speed, and make it gesture, speak, and behave in whatever way you choose. It mimics your mannerisms perfectly.
You can see through its eyes and hear through its ears as if you were in its space. On your turn as a bonus action, you can switch from using its senses to using your own, or back again. While you are using its senses, you are blinded and deafened in regard to your own surroundings.
Physical interaction with the image reveals it to be an illusion, because things can pass through it. A creature that uses its action to examine the image can determine that it is an illusion with a successful Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC. If a creature discerns the illusion for what it is, the creature can see through the image, and any noise it makes sounds hollow to the creature.
Reverse Gravity
7-level Transmutation
This spell reverses gravity in a 50 foot radius, 100 foot high cylinder centred on a point within range. All creatures and objects that aren’t somehow anchored to the ground in the area fall upward and reach the top of the area when you cast this spell. A creature can make a Dexterity saving throw to grab onto a fixed object it can reach, thus avoiding the fall.
If some solid object (such as a ceiling) is encountered in this fall, falling objects and creatures strike it just as they would during a normal downward fall. If an object or creature reaches the top of the area without striking anything, it remains there, oscillating slightly, for the duration.
At the end of the duration, affected objects and creatures fall back down.
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 Moon Elf Sorcerer Spells
FeeblemindFeeblemind
8-level Enchantment
You blast the mind of a creature that you can see within range, attempting to shatter its intellect and personality. The target takes 4d6 psychic damage and must make an Intelligence saving throw.
On a failed save, the creature’s Intelligence and Charisma scores become 1. The creature can’t cast spells, activate magic items, understand language, or communicate in any intelligible way. The creature can, however, identify its friends, follow them, and even protect them.
At the end of every 30 days, the creature can repeat its saving throw against this spell. If it succeeds on its saving throw, the spell ends.
The spell can also be ended by greater restoration, heal, or wish.
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.
Mind Blank
8-level Abjuration
Until the spell ends, one willing creature you touch is immune to psychic damage, any effect that would sense its emotions or read its thoughts, divination spells, and the charmed condition. The spell even foils wish spells and spells or effects of similar power used to affect the target’s mind or to gain information about the target.
Power Word Stun
8-level Enchantment
You speak a word of power that can overwhelm the mind of one creature you can see within range, leaving it dumbfounded. If the target has 150 hit points or fewer, it is stunned. Otherwise, the spell has no effect.
The stunned target must make a Constitution saving throw at the end of each of its turns. On a successful save, this stunning effect ends.
Spell Shape
8-level Abjuration
This spell gives the wild mage the ability to seize magical energy directed at them and reshape it as they desire.
When you initially cast this spell, there is no tangible effect. If you are the target of a spell or magical item, this spell automatically allows you a saving throw against the spell caster's DC. This saving throw does not become available if the spell is an area effect spell. If the saving throw is failed, the opponent's spell has normal effects.
If the saving throw is successful, the spell shape absorbs the magical energy of the opponent's spell. You can then choose to let the energy dissipate or, using a reaction, cast a spell back at the opposing mage. The return spell must be of an equal or lesser spell level than the original one and must be currently memorized by the sorcerer. The act of returning the spell does not cost you any of your spell slots. Spell energy cannot be saved; if not used immediately, it dissipates.
Telepathy
8-level Evocation
You create a telepathic link between yourself and a willing creature with which you are familiar. The creature can be anywhere on the same plane of existence as you. The spell ends if you or the target are no longer on the same plane.
Until the spell ends, you and the target can instantaneously share words, images, sounds, and other sensory messages with one another through the link, and the target recognizes you as the creature it is communicating with. The spell enables a creature with an Intelligence score of at least 1 to understand the meaning of your words and take in the scope of any sensory messages you send to it.
9th Level Moon Elf Sorcerer Spells
Erase MemoryErase Memory
9-level Enchantment
The effects of this spell are determined by the gems set into the ring for the material component.
Emerald. You can eradicate something you remember from your mind and the minds of any number of creatures of your choosing.
Ruby. You can name a sentient being you have met and erase their existence from your mind and the minds of any number of creatures of your choosing.
Jet. You can erase a piece of text from the minds of everyone on your current plane, and erase it from every scroll and book as well. Once you do so, the texts become by-and-large jumbled incohesive messes of words that cannot be understood, except by the most insane of minds.
This spell will always affect your memory alongside any otehr targets you choose. Furthermore, when the casting is complete you take psychic damage equal to the number of people you affected, up to one point below your maximum.
Hayzenbyrg’s Superposition
9-level Transmutation
You call upon the limits of arcane possibility to split yourself into verious probable versions of yourself within a sphere of a radius of 10 feet times 1d6 + your spellcasting ability modifier, centred on you. Within this sphere, you can be in multiple places at once.
Each turn you can choose to create and/or destroy a copy of you within the sphere. You can have up to your spellcasting ability modifier of copies simultaneously. Such copies are not duplicates; they are all simultaneously you. If one copy takes damage, they all take damage. If one copy expends a spell slot or use from a magic item, all copies lose the same slot or charge. The copies all act on your initiative and can make only a move action on the turn they are created. After that, they may act normally. The copies do not share concentration; whilst they are all part of the same being, they are different possibilities, and each possesses its own autonomy.
You can continue to exist within the sphere, even when no copy is in existence, simply remaining as an uncollapsed probability cloud. Whilst in this form, you are immune to all damage and have blindsight within the spell's area. Even when copies are present, you still maintain these benefits – the ‘original’ you still exists in the cloud.
The spell ends when the duration runs out, you are reduced to 0 hit points or one of the copies leaves the area, either by leaving the sphere or entering an area of antimagic, such as that created by the antimagic field spell. When the spell ends, you can choose one of your copies. If the spell ended due to a copy leaving the area, you must choose that copy. All other copies wink out of existence as the probability cloud collapses back into one person.
If the spell ends when you have no copies in existence, you coalesce back into existence next to the lodestone which is the material focus for this spell, and which remains behind when you cast the spell, forming a copy which becomes you. If the lodestone is no longer within the spell’s area, you simply wink out of existence and you cannot be raised by anything less than a wish spell, as even your soul no longer exists.
Time Stop
9-level Transmutation
You briefly stop the flow of time for everyone but yourself. No time passes for other creatures, while you take 1d4 + 1 turns in a row, during which you can use actions and move as normal.
This spell ends if one of the actions you use during this period, or any effects that you create during this period, affects a creature other than you or an object being worn or carried by someone other than you. In addition, the spell ends if you move to a place m ore than 1,000 feet from the location where you cast it.
True Resurrection
9-level Necromancy
You touch a creature that has been dead for no longer than 200 years and that died for any reason except old age. If the creature’s soul is free and willing, the creature is restored to life with all its hit points.
This spell closes all wounds, neutralizes any poison, cures all diseases, and lifts any curses affecting the creature when it died. The spell replaces damaged or missing organs and limbs.
The spell can even provide a new body if the original no longer exists, in which case you must speak the creature’s name. The creature then appears in an unoccupied space you choose within 10 feet of you.
