When a creature accepts, its spirit is projected into one of the gems used in casting the spell. The material body it leaves behind falls unconscious and doesn’t need food or air. The creature’s consciousness is present in the room with you, and its normal form appears as an astral projection within 5 feet of the gem its spirit occupies.

They can’t interact with anything physically.

A creature can end the spell’s effect on itself voluntarily at any time, as can you. When the effect ends or the duration expires, a creature’s spirit returns to its body and it regains consciousness.

The creature uses a melee weapon if it has one; otherwise, it attacks with any other offensive ability it possesses. If an affected creature leaves the aura, the aura’s effect persists for 1 round afterward. A creature affected by the aura makes a new saving throw at the start of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

You transmute an area of dust or dirt into fresh, potable water. You can affect up to 10,000 cubic feet (10 cubes, each 10 feet on a side), but the effect can’t extend more than 10 feet into the ground. The spell doesn’t work on rock or stone and has no effect on creatures.

6th-level transmutation

Components: V, S, M (a pinch of dust) Casting Time: 1 action Duration: Permanent Range: 120 ft. Area of Effect: Up to 10,000 cubic ft. of water Saving Throw: None

You transmute normal water into fine dust. Up to 10,000 cubic feet (10 cubes, each 10 feet on a side) can be affected, but the effect can go no deeper than the top 10 feet of a pool of water. A creature in the affected water is trapped in the dust unless it makes a successful Dexterity saving throw, in which case it escapes to the nearest clear, safe space.

This spell has no effect on most creatures. If cast directly on a water creature, however, such as a water elemental, the creature must make a Constitution saving throw. If the saving throw fails, the creature is killed instantly; on a successful save, it takes 5d6 fire damage instead.

6th-level evocation

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Self (60-yard cone)
• Components: V, S, M (a burning fire)
• Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes

You stand within 30 feet of mundane flames at least the size of a Large bonfire and channel that fire into a deadly attack. The fire travels through you and becomes a 60-foot cone. All creatures in that cone must make a Dexterity saving through. A creature takes 4d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one. Each round, you may change your facing so that you attack a different area.

This spell lasts for 10 minutes, or as long as the fire you are channeling from continues to burn.

6th-level illusion (chaos)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 60 feet
• Components: V, M (seven irregular pieces of colored cloth that you throw into the air)
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

You throw a handful of colored cloth into the air while screaming a litany of disjointed phrases. A moment later, a 30-foot cube centered on a point within range fills with multicolored light, cacophonous sound, overpowering scents, and other confusing sensory information. The effect is dizzying and overwhelming. Each enemy within the cube must make a successful Intelligence saving throw or become blinded and deafened, and fall prone. An affected enemy cannot stand up or recover from the blindness or deafness while within the area, but all three conditions end immediately for a creature that leaves the spell’s area.

6th-level transmutation

• Components: V, S, M (a glass cube)
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
• Range: Self

Your eyes become cold and frosty. For the duration of this spell, whenever a creature starts its turn within 30 feet of you, you can force it to make a Constitution saving throw. The creature must be able to see your eyes, and you must be able to see it. If the saving throw fails, the creature takes 2d10 cold damage and becomes paralyzed by supernatural chills. The paralysis lasts 2d4 days; this decreases to 1 day if the victim is warmed in a dwelling, bundled in furs, etc. The paralysis can also be ended by magic capable of removing paralysis.

Creatures that are resistant to or immune to cold damage are not paralyzed by this spell.

6th-level transmutation

Components: V, S, M (a cocoon) Casting Time: 10 minutes Duration: 1 hour Range: Touch Area of Effect: 1 creature Saving Throw: None

A willing creature you touch becomes wrapped in a silky cocoon. While in the cocoon, the subject doesn’t need to eat or drink. At the end of the hour, it emerges from the cocoon as if it had just completed a long rest. While within the cocoon, however, the creature is helpless and can do nothing. If awakened before the end of the spell’s duration, the subject can break free from the cocoon as an action, but this does provoke opportunity attacks from adjacent enemies. The creature has disadvantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks while cocooned.

The chrysalis has 1 hit point and AC 10. If it is destroyed, the spell ends and the creature is stunned until the end of its next turn.

6th-level abjuration (dragon)

• Casting Time: 10 minutes
• Range: Touch
• Components: V, S, M (material goods and wealth worth at least 2,000 gp)
• Duration: 24 hours

By placing your personal wealth within an area and invoking the dragon’s territorial nature, you claim the area as your lair, imbuing you with extra power within its confines. You can claim an area of up to 2,500 square feet (a space 50 feet square, or one hundred 5-foot squares, or twenty-five 10-foot squares). The claimed area can be up to 20 feet tall and shaped as you desire. While within these confines, you can take one of the following lair actions once per round on initiative count 20:

• Magical darkness spreads from a point you choose within 30 feet, filling a 15-foot-radius sphere until you dismiss it as an action, use this lair action again, or die. The darkness spreads around corners. A creature with darkvision can’t see through this darkness, and nonmagical light can’t illuminate it, but you can see in the area as if it were brightly lit. If any of the effect’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.
• Part of the ceiling collapses above one creature you can see within 60 feet of you. The creature must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC or take 3d6 bludgeoning damage and be knocked prone and buried. A buried target is restrained and unable to breathe or stand up. A creature can take an action to make a DC 10 Strength check, ending the buried state with a success.
• A tremor shakes the lair in a 30-foot radius around you. Each creature on the ground in that area other than you must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC or be knocked prone. You can take an action to dismiss this spell.

6th-level transmutation

• Components: V, S, M (a claw)
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour
• Range: Touch

You transform one willing creature’s hands into thick, wide claws that enable it to burrow through earth and stone. The creature can burrow through earth at a rate equal to its land speed, and through rock or stone at one-quarter of that rate.

A creature that burrows through stone leaves a tunnel behind it. If it burrows through soft earth, the tunnel fills in behind it (with earth excavated from ahead of the creature) unless the creature slows down to half speed.

In addition, the creature’s unarmed attacks do 2d6 slashing damage. The claws are considered adamantine.

6th-level conjuration

• Components: V, S, M (a pinch of powdered crystal or glass)
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
• Range: 120 ft.

You create a cloud of icy fog in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on a point you can see. The sphere extends around corners, and its area is heavily obscured. The fog is semi-solid, and its area is considered difficult terrain.

Each creature that starts its turn in the fog, or enters it, takes 4d6 cold damage and its speed is reduced by 10 feet until the end of its turn.

The fog lasts for the duration of the spell or until it’s dispersed by a wind of moderate or greater speed (at least 10 mph).

6th-level illusion

Components: V, S, M (a cracked prism) Casting Time: 1 action Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute Range: Self Area of Effect: Sphere, 60-ft. radius Saving Throw: Intelligence negates effect

Every intelligent creature within 60 feet of yourself (including you) takes on the appearance of one other creature in the area. The creature that everyone and everything resembles should be selected randomly. Every creature in the area of effect becomes an exact copy of the original, from the items it carries to the sound of its voice.

A creature that sees the spell’s effect can make an Intelligence saving throw. If the saving throw fails, the creature can’t distinguish which creature is which by sight or sound. On a successful save, the creature still sees the illusion but can tell which creature is which from subtle clues such as posture or manner of movement.

As an action, a creature can make an Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell saving throw DC; if it succeeds, they can correctly identify each creature affected by the illusion, the same as if they’d made a successful saving throw.

6th-level conjuration

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 60 feet
• Components: V, S
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour

You summon a celestial (if you worship a good or neutral deity) or fiend (if you worship an evil deity) that takes the form of an animal. Choose one of the following options for what appears:

• One beast of challenge rating 3 or lower
• Two beasts of challenge rating 2 or lower
• Four beasts of challenge rating 1 or lower

Depending on what sort of minion you summon, it has one of the following templates:

• Celestial. The creature has resistance to radiant damage and damage from bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage from nonmagical weapons, and is immune to being charmed or frightened. Its attacks are magical and deal an additional 2d8 radiant damage. It has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.
• Fiendish. The creature has resistance to necrotic or fire damage and damage from bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage from nonmagical weapons, and is immune to being charmed or frightened. Its attacks are magical and deal an additional 2d8 necrotic or fire damage. It has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

6th-level conjuration

• Casting Time: 1 hour
• Range: 30 feet
• Components: V, S, M (one humanoid body, which the spell consumes)
• Duration: Until destroyed

When you cast this spell in a forest, you fasten sticks and twigs around a body. The body comes to life as a forest defender (see below). The forest defender is friendly to you and your companions. Roll initiative for the forest defender, which has its own turns. It obeys any verbal or mental commands that you issue to it (no action required by you), as long as you remain within its line of sight. If you don’t issue any commands to the forest defender, if you are out of its line of sight, or if you are unconscious, it defends itself from hostile creatures but otherwise takes no actions. A body sacrificed to form the forest defender is permanently destroyed and can be restored to life only by means of a true resurrection or a wish spell. You can have only one forest defender under your control at a time.

If you cast this spell again, the previous forest defender crumbles to dust.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a 9th level spell slot, you summon two forest defenders instead of one, and you can control up to two forest defenders at a time.

6th-level evocation

• Classes: cleric
• Casting Time: 10 minutes
• Range: Touch
• Components: V, S, M (four vials of holy water)
• Duration: Until dispelled

This spell blesses your entire stronghold, up to a 60-foot-radius from the point you touch, with radiant energy. Creatures slain within your consecrated stronghold cannot be turned into undead for as long as the spell lasts, even if their bodies are removed from your stronghold. If you cast deathless defenders to animate skeletal or zombie defenders within your consecrated stronghold, they gain resistance to radiant damage and a +1 bonus on attack and damage rolls. All other undead take a -1 penalty on attack and damage rolls and have weakness to radiant energy.

A consecrated stronghold automatically dispels any hallow spells within your stronghold, and no new hallow spell can be cast there while the consecrated stronghold persists unless the hallow spell’s caster level exceeds yours, in which case the consecrate caster must attempt a caster level check (DC 15 + your caster level) or the spell fails. Even if successfully cast, the hallow spell’s duration is 24 hours instead of indefinite.

6th-level necromancy

• Components: V, S
• Casting Time: 10 minutes
• Duration: 24 hours
• Range: Self

You animate all dead humanoid creatures you can see within 60 feet of yourself to act as a crew for a ship or boat. Treat the animated corpses as zombies or skeletons, as appropriate. They have a +8 bonus on skill checks related to crewing the ship, but they are incapable of doing anything else. They must be constantly commanded (by your mental commands) or they do nothing. If your concentration is broken, they halt their activity immediately and you must spend an action to regain control over them.

The undead crew does not fight, even if commanded to do so. If instructed to do anything but operate a boat, they simply stand in place, doing nothing.

6th-level transmutation (winter)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 100 feet
• Components: V, S
• Duration: Permanent

You designate a creature within range that you can see.

If the target fails a Charisma saving throw, it and its equipment are frozen solid, becoming an inert statue of ice. The creature is effectively paralyzed, but mental activity does not cease, and signs of life are detectable; the creature still breathes and its heart continues to beat, though both acts are almost imperceptible. If the ice statue is broken or damaged while frozen, the creature will have matching damage or injury when returned to its original state. Dispel magic can’t end this spell, but it can allow the target to speak (but not move or cast spells) for a number of rounds equal to the spell slot used. Greater restoration or more potent magic is needed to free a creature from the ice.

6th-level necromancy

• Components: V, S, M (a pinch of ground bone)
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: Permanent or 1 minute
• Range: 60 ft.

You curse a creature you can see. The creature loses 4 points of Strength and Dexterity (to a minimum of 1) and must make a Constitution saving throw. If the saving throw fails, the curse is permanent until it’s lifted by magic. A successful save means the curse lasts only one minute, unless it’s ended magically before then.

6th-level transmutation

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Touch
• Components: V, S, M (a drop of blood from a true lycanthrope)
• Duration: Instantaneous

You touch a humanoid and turn it into an infected lycanthrope. The target may make a Constitution saving throw to avoid this spell.

The exact species of lycanthrope depends on the nature and temperament of your target.

If your target fails its saving throw, then on the next full moon, it will transform each night of the three nights of the full moon. On the day after the third night, the subject may make another saving throw, with disadvantage unless the target failed to kill anything during those three nights.

This spell continues until the target succeeds at three saving throws, although these saves do not need to be consecutive. A remove curse allows for an additional saving throw, or grants advantage on a monthly saving throw. A greater restoration removes this curse immediately.

6th level abjuration

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Components: V, S, M (a piece of gold string)
• Range: Self
• Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes

As you cast this spell, you animate your shadow, which shields you from harm.

This shadowy shield can absorb a number of hit points of damage up to your current hit points before disappearing.

This protection extends to physical attacks as well as spells and effects that deal radiant and lightning damage. Since this is a shield in front of you and not temporary hit points, attacks absorbed thus do not prompt concentration-checks from you. If the spell is dismissed before its maximum number of hit points is expended, you suffer from no ill effects. However, if the shadow absorbs the maximum amount of hit points possible, it dissipates, leaving you without a shadow for a number of days equal to your level. You can only cast this spell if you have a shadow.

6th-level necromancy

• Casting Time: 1 round
• Range: Self
• Components: S, M (two eyeball-sized glass marbles the same color as your own eyes)
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

Your eyes become pure black and the pupils reshape themselves into white skulls.

Each round, you may choose one humanoid, giant, beast, or monstrosity within 30 feet that you can see and that can see your eyes and force it to make a Wisdom saving throw.

On a failed save, a creature suffers an effect based on its current hit points:

• 50 hit points or fewer: 4d6 necrotic damage.
• 30 hit points or fewer: 8d6 necrotic damage and become blinded for 1 minute.
• 10 hit points or fewer: 10d10 necrotic damage and become blinded permanently.

If the saving throw fails by 5 or more, the creature is instantly slain.

6th-level necromancy

• Components: V, S, M (two bone marbles)
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
• Range: Self

Your pupils reshape to resemble skulls. When a creature starts its turn within 30 feet of you, you can force it to make a Constitution saving throw if it can see your eyes and you can see it. If the saving throw fails, the creature takes 6d8 necrotic damage and is incapacitated until the start of its next turn. A creature that isn’t surprised can avoid the saving throw by averting its gaze at the start of its turn. It takes the normal penalty for attacking an unseen target if it attacks you before the start of its next turn.

If you meet your own gaze through a reflection, you must also make the saving throw.

6th-level enchantment

• Components: V, S
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
• Range: 120 ft.

The magic you weave around one living creature makes it believe it has died. It falls unconscious unless it makes a successful Charisma saving throw.

At the end of each of its turns, the creature can repeat the saving throw. If the saving throw succeeds, it wakes up and the spell ends. Otherwise, it takes 4d8 necrotic damage, remains unconscious, and the spell continues. If an adjacent creature spends an action trying to awaken the affected creature, it gets advantage on its next saving throw.

If the creature remains unconscious but alive for ten rounds (1 minute, the spell’s full duration), it must make a Constitution saving throw at the end of its turn instead of a Charisma saving throw. If the Constitution saving throw fails, the creature dies.

The creature instantly awakes when the spell ends. Creatures immune to charming are not affected by death’s imposition.

6th-level conjuration

• Classes: Artificer, Wizard
• Casting Time: 10 minutes
• Range: 5 feet
• Components: V, S
• Duration: 4 hours

You conjure an extradimensional dwelling in range that lasts for the duration. You choose where its one entrance is located. The entrance shimmers faintly and is 5 feet wide and 10 feet tall. You and any creature you designate when you cast the spell can enter the extradimensional dwelling as long as the portal remains open. You can open or close the portal if you are within 30 feet of it. While closed, the portal is invisible.

Beyond the portal is a magnificent foyer with numerous chambers beyond. The atmosphere is clean, fresh, and warm.

You can create any floor plan you like, but the space can't exceed 20 cubes, each cube being 10 feet on each side. The place is furnished with every artisan tool and typical crafting accessory you could need: anvils, furnaces, looms, etc.

Furnishings and other objects created by this spell dissolve into smoke if removed from the mansion. When the spell ends, any creatures inside the extradimensional space are expelled into the open spaces nearest to the entrance.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, the dwelling lasts for 24 hours.

6th-level abjuration (bard, cleric, sorcerer, wizard)

• Casting Time: 1 bonus action
• Range: 90 feet
• Components: V, S
• Duration: concentration, up to 10 minutes

You create a pulsating wall of magical energy that purges magical effects from any creature that passes through it. The wall is a line that can be up to 40 feet in length, 40 feet high, and 5 feet thick. When you cast this spell, you cannot place it in any occupied space, and it must be placed in a space that you can see. The wall is visible to all creatures with an Intelligence score higher than 11. A creature that passes through the wall has any spell of 6th level or lower on it end. Spells of 7th level or higher on the target are unaffected.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, the duration is 1 hour. If you use a spell slot of 8th level or higher, the duration is 24 hours. If you use an 9th level spell slot, the spell lasts for 1 month. Using a spell slot of 7th level or higher grants a duration that does not require Concentration.

6th-level transmutation (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 hour
• Range: Touch
• Components: V, S, M (a silver model of the creature in question worth 200 gp)
• Duration: Instantaneous

You touch a pregnant humanoid, giant, beast, or monstrosity and alter its fetus in one of the following ways.

• Armor.* You improve its natural armor class by one level.
• Attack.* You give the creature one form of attack (grapple, constrict, bite, smother) that it didn’t have previously.
• Breathing. You give the creature the ability to breathe air, water, or both.
• Diet. You change its diet (herbivore to carnivore).

• Limbs.* You add a pair of limbs of a tail, turn a pair of limbs into functional wings or vice versa, turn a normal tail prehensile, increase or decrease one type of movement by 25%, or give the creature the ability to swim, burrow, leap, or walk, if it couldn’t do so previously.
• Magic Resistance.* You give the creature magic resistance.
• Mighty.* You improve two of its attributes by +2 each.
• Morality.* You breed it to have a strong inclination to good, evil, chaos, or law.

• Senses. You give the creature keen senses (up to two senses), darkvision, or tremorsense.
• Size. You increase or decrease the creature’s adult size by one size category.
• Vigorous.* You improve its hit dice by 25%.

After choosing what change you want to make, the GM will roll 1d20 for each offspring it has. If you are attempting to change a trait marked by an asterisk, the GM rolls at disadvantage.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell with a 9th-level spell slot, the GM always rolls with advantage.

6th-level transmutation

• Components: V, S
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: 1 hour
• Range: Touch

For the duration of the spell, you transform one ounce of normal sand into deadly poison (enough to affect just one creature). The poison is a fine powder that can be sprinkled on food or stirred into a drink. When mixed this way, it is difficult to detect; a successful Wisdom (Perception) check against your spell saving throw DC is needed to notice the poison before enough has been ingested to cause harm. Only the creature that is eating or drinking the poison can attempt this check, and only if they are suspicious of the food or drink. If the victim doesn’t suspect the food is contaminated, no check is allowed.

A creature that consumes the poison must make a Constitution saving throw against poison at the end of each of its turns. The creature takes 6d6 poison damage if the saving throw fails, or half damage on a successful save. A creature that makes two successful saving throws is no longer affected by the poison; it still takes half damage from the second successful save, but then the poison is neutralized. The successful saves don’t need to be consecutive.

6th-level transmutation

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 100 feet
• Components: V, S, M (a tooth from a carnivore)
• Duration: 1 minute

A 10-foot wide maw on a short, serpentine neck springs out of the ground at attacks one creature within 10 feet of it. It uses your spell attack modifier to attack. On a hit, it does 6d6 piercing damage and swallows the creature, if it Large-sized or smaller. Then it sinks back into the ground and vanishes, leaving the creature it swallowed trapped in the ground.

While swallowed, the creature is blinded and restrained and takes 3d6 bludgeoning damage each round until the spell ends or it is freed from the outside. The creature also has no air and must hold its breath.

6th-level necromancy

• Components: V, S, M (bone dust from an undead creature)
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
• Range: 150 ft.

You instill necrotic energy into up to 1,000 cubic feet (a cube 10 feet on a side) of water you can see. Each creature that enters the water or ends its turn in the water (not both in a single turn) takes 8d6 necrotic damage, or half damage with a successful Constitution saving throw.

A creature that drinks the water takes 8d6 necrotic damage and its maximum hit points are reduced by the same number, or it takes half damage and its maximum hit points aren’t reduced with a successful Constitution saving throw.

At the beginning of your turn, you can use a bonus action to move the necrotic energy up to 10 feet in any direction, as long as it remains in the body of water.

6th-level transmutation

• Components: V, S
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: 24 hours
• Range: Touch

You infuse a willing creature with properties of creatures of either ice or fire. The creature is affected as described below, depending on which element it’s infused with. These resistances and vulnerabilities completely replace any existing resistance or vulnerability to fire and cold damage that the creature had when elemental cloak was cast on it.

• Fire: Resistance to fire damage, vulnerability to cold damage.
• Ice: Resistance to cold damage, vulnerability to fire damage.

6th-level conjuration

• Components: V, S
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: 1 minute
• Range: Self

You conjure an elemental scimitar into your hand. You choose which element it is affiliated with when you cast the spell. The scimitar acts as a +1 scimitar and has the additional abilities listed below.

Scimitar of Air: A creature struck by the scimitar must make a successful Strength saving throw or be pushed up to 30 feet in the direction of your choice and knocked prone. The scimitar’s attacks score critical hits on a natural roll of 19 or 20.

Scimitar of Earth: A creature struck by the scimitar must make a successful Constitution saving or become restrained. It repeats the saving throw at the end of its next turn; a successful save ends the effect, but a failure results in the creature becoming petrified. A petrified creature repeats the saving throw at the end of each of its turns; a successful save ends the petrification.

Scimitar of Fire: A creature struck by the scimitar catches on fire. It takes 5d6 fire damage at the beginning of each of its turns until either it or an adjacent ally uses an action to extinguish the flames.

Scimitar of Water: As an action, you can slash the air with the scimitar to create a spray of acid in a 15-foot cone. Each creature in the cone takes 6d6 acid damage, or half damage with a successful Dexterity saving throw.

6th-level enchantment (ring)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Touch
• Components: V, S, M (500 gp worth of diamond dust, which the spell consumes)
• Duration: Permanent until discharged

You enchant a ring you touch that isn’t being worn or carried. The next creature that willingly wears the ring becomes charmed by you for 1 week or until it is harmed by you or one of your allies. If the creature dons the ring while directly threatened by you or one of your allies, the spell fails.

The charmed creature regards you as a friend. When the spell ends, it doesn’t know it was charmed by you, but it does realize that its attitude toward you has changed (possibly greatly) in a short time. How the creature reacts to you and regards you in the future is up to the GM.

6th-level illusion (ritual only)

• Casting Time: 1 hour
• Range: 150 feet
• Components: V, S, M (a drop of blood smeared on a silver rod worth 100 gp)
• Duration: 12 hours

You cause menacing shadows to invade an area 200 feet on a side and 50 feet high, centered on a point within range.

Illumination in the area drops one step (from bright light to dim, or from dim light to darkness). Any spell that creates light in the area that is cast using a lower-level spell slot than was used to cast encroaching shadows is dispelled, and a spell that creates light doesn’t function in the area if that spell is cast using a spell slot of 5th level or lower.

Nonmagical effects can’t increase the level of illumination in the affected area.

A spell that creates darkness or shadow takes effect in the area as if the spell slot expended was one level higher than the spell slot actually used.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, the effect lasts for an additional 12 hours for each slot level above 6th.

Ritual Focus. If you expend your ritual focus, the spell’s duration increases by 12 hours, and it cannot be dispelled by a spell that creates light, even if that spell is cast using a higher-level spell slot.

6th-level transmutation

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 90 feet
• Components: V, S, M (a chip of granite)
• Duration: 8 hours

You cause slabs of rock to burst out of the ground or other stone surface to form a hollow, 10-foot cube within range.

A creature inside the cube when it forms must make a successful Dexterity saving throw or be trapped inside the stone tomb. The tomb is airtight, with enough air for a single Medium or Small creature to breathe for 8 hours. If more than one creature is trapped inside, divide the time evenly between all the occupants. A Large creature counts as four Medium creatures. If the creature is still trapped inside when the air runs out, it begins to suffocate.

The tomb has AC 18 and 50 hit points. It is resistant to fire, cold, lightning, bludgeoning, and slashing damage, is immune to poison and psychic damage, and is vulnerable to thunder damage. When reduced to 0 hit points, the tomb crumbles into harmless powder.

6th-level necromancy (ritual)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Touch
• Components: V, S, M (a blank page)
• Duration: Instantaneous

By touching a recently deceased corpse, you gain one specific bit of knowledge from it that was known to the creature in life. You must form a question in your mind as part of casting the spell; if the corpse has an answer to your question, it reveals the information to you telepathically.

The answer is always brief - no more than a sentence - and very specific to the framed question. It doesn’t matter whether the creature was your friend or enemy; the spell compels it to answer in any case.

6th-level necromancy

• Components: V, S, M (an onyx vial filled with the caster’s blood)
• Casting Time: 10 minutes
• Duration: Instantaneous
• Range: Touch

6th-level evocation

• Components: V, S
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: Instantaneous
• Range: 250 ft.

Choose a point you can see within range. The air within 20 feet of that point fills with glowing fangs of force that slash at all creatures in the affected area. Each creature in the affected area must make a Dexterity saving throw. If the saving throw fails, the creature takes 10d6 slashing damage and begins bleeding, which causes an additional 5 points of damage at the start of each of the creature’s turns; on a successful save, it takes half damage and doesn’t bleed. Bleeding continues until the creature regains hit points or is attended to with a successful Wisdom (Medicine) check against your spell save DC, made by the bleeding creature or by an adjacent ally.

Incorporeal creatures can’t benefit from damage resistance against the damage from this spell, but they never bleed.

At Higher Levels: For each spell slot used higher than 6th level, the slashing damage increases by 1d6 and the bleeding increases by 1 point.

You touch a creature of Huge size or smaller, or a single object no more than 20 feet in any dimension, and transform it into malleable shadow-stuff. Objects under the effect of the spell are not immaterial, but are easy to shape or compress. One could not walk through a door that is affected by the spell, but the door could be pulled aside like a curtain and bypassed, or pulled up like the bottom edge of a tent flap and crawled under, even if the door was locked.

An unwilling creature can make a Constitution saving throw, avoiding the effect on a success. A creature under the effect of the spell is amorphous and can move through a space as narrow as 1 inch wide without squeezing.

6th-level evocation

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Self
• Components: V, S
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

You create a silent, weightless, magical four-foot-long sword made out of moonlight or sunlight, your choice. Only you may use it, and it cannot be dropped. You use your spell attack modifier to hit. On a hit, it does 2d8 + your spellcasting attribute modifier in radiant damage. Against undead, it does 2d12 + twice your spellcasting attribute modifier in radiant damage. This weapon does not leave visible wounds, except on undead; with them, their substance visibly boils away at the weapon’s touch.

If you use a moonlight blade, this spell does 2d12 + twice your spellcasting attribute modifier in radiant damage to shapechangers as well as undead.

If you use a sunlight blade, anyone hit by this sword must make a Constitution saving throw or be blinded for 1 minute.

In addition, on a successful hit, the target must make a saving throw using its spellcasting ability modifier or lose the ability to cast spells the following round. If the target does not have the ability to cast spells, this has no effect.

• Duration: 24 hours

By casting this spell, you imbue a piece of ammunition to have greater effect on a specific target. To this end, you need something directly associated with the creature for which the arrow is intended - a drop of its blood, a strand of its hair, an item of clothing it recently wore, or something similar - which is consumed in the casting of the spell. For the next 24 hours, if the ammunition is used to make a ranged attack against the specific target and it hits, it deals an extra 6d10 radiant damage to the target and stuns it for 1 round. If the target makes a successful Constitution saving throw, it takes half as much radiant damage and is not stunned. If the attack is a critical hit, the creature has disadvantage on its saving throw.

6th-level evocation

• Components: V, S
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
• Range: Self

Your body glows intensely, giving off bright light in a 60-foot radius and dim light for a further 60 feet. For the duration of the spell, you gain resistance to fire damage.

6th-level evocation

• Components: V, S
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
• Range: 150 ft.

You cause the air to vibrate with music concentrated in a wall up to 80 feet long, 20 feet high, and 5 feet wide. The wall forms in an area you choose within range. It must be straight along its entire length. Creatures in the area occupied by the wall when it’s created make Dexterity saving throws. A successful saving throw indicates the creature can immediately move to an adjacent unoccupied space; if the saving throw fails or the creature has nowhere to go, the wall forms around it. The wall doesn’t obscure vision or block movement physically.

When you cast the spell, you choose whether the song is melodious or cacophonous.

The melodious song causes one side of the wall that you choose to emit a pleasing melody that entrances those that can hear it; the other side is silent. Every creature within 30 feet of the melodious side of the wall that can hear the song must make a Wisdom saving throw at the beginning of each of its turns. If the saving throw fails, the creature must move toward the wall by the shortest, safest route until it is within the wall.

A creature that enters the melodious wall or ends its turn inside it must make a Wisdom saving throw. If this saving throw fails, the creature falls unconscious for as long as it’s inside the wall. If it takes damage, it can repeat the saving throw; it awakens on a successful save. A creature never needs to make more than one saving throw against the wall’s effect per turn.

The cacophonous song causes one side of the wall to emit thunderous, damaging vibrations while the other side remains silent. Each creature that ends its turn within 30 feet of the wall takes 3d8 thunder damage and is deafened until the start of its next turn, or half damage with no deafening if it makes a successful Constitution saving throw. Being unable to hear the wall doesn’t protect a creature against the damage, which is caused by vibrations affecting the creature’s whole body.

The interior of the cacophonous wall is even more dangerous; any creature that enters the wall or ends its turn there must make a Constitution saving throw (no more than one saving throw per turn). If the saving throw fails, the creature takes 8d6 thunder damage, is permanently deafened, and is stunned until the beginning of its next turn. A successful save halves the damage and the creature is not deafened or stunned. Creatures that are already deaf are immune to the stunning but still take the damage.

6th-level necromancy (wizard)

• Casting Time: 1 bonus action
• Range: 30 feet
• Components: V, S
• Duration: instantaneous

You disrupt magical energy around yourself. The effect moves with you.

Any spellcaster that casts a spell within 100 feet of you must make an ability check using their spell-casting ability against your spell saving throw DC. If the check fails, the spell takes effect as if it were cast using the minimum slot level that could be used to cast it rather than the slot that was actually used. In addition, if the spell has a variable effect, it has a -1 penalty on each die, to a minimum of one.

6th-level necromancy

• Components: V, S, M (a few drops of blood)
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
• Range: 50 ft.

You cause a gaping wound to open in the body of a living creature. At the beginning of each of the target’s turns, it must make a Constitution saving throw. If the saving throw fails, the creature takes 5d6 necrotic damage and loses 1 point of Constitution.

The spell ends if the creature regains hit points or if it makes two successful Constitution saving throws against this effect. The saves don’t need to be consecutive.

The spell has no effect on creatures without blood.

6th-level abjuration

Components: V, S, M (a specially prepared document) Casting Time: 3 rounds (see text) Duration: See text Range: 50 ft. Area of Effect: 1 fiend Saving Throw: Cha / partial

This spell allows you to inflict wracking pains on a fiend, usually in order to exact a service from it. If the creature refuses and you continue the spell, it is eventually banished to its plane of origin.

To cast this spell, you must have a specially prepared document that contains the fiend’s true name; without that, the spell fails automatically. You can start and pause the reading at any time, so long as no more than 10 rounds have elapsed since the spell was started. You can end the casting at any time by simply not finishing the reading of the document.

When you begin reading the document, the subject feels great discomfort and must make a Charisma saving throw. If the saving throw fails, the creature is unable to attack or to move from its location by any means. A successful save allows the creature to move normally (including retreating to its home plane) if it isn’t prevented from doing so, but the spiritbreaker spell still renders it powerless to attack.

During the second round of reading, the subject feels great pain coursing through its body and it loses one-fourth of its current hit points.

At the start of the third round of reading, the subject loses one-half of its current hit points as the pain intensifies. At the end of the third round, the creature is condemned to its home plane. It remains confined there, unable to be summoned to your plane, unable to leave its own plane, and in wracking pain, for ten years. From this point forward, the creature is your sworn enemy. Unfortunately, its confinement to its home plane doesn’t prevent the creature from sending its minions and servitors to deal with you. Material Component: The specially prepared document mentioned above must contain the true name of the fiend the spell is being used against. The document itself costs 1,000 gp for the paper or parchment, special pens, and other materials. The ink used to scribe the document must be made from powdered rubies (totaling at least 5,000 gp) and the blood of a fiend.

Note that a fiend’s true name is not easy to come by. Many (particularly in the case of demons) go by more than one name on the various planes of existence, and some don’t even know their own true names. No fiend ever voluntarily reveals its true name to anyone, especially a spellcaster from the Material Plane.

6th-level abjuration

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Self (10-foot radius)
• Components: V, S, M (one of your tears and a tiny harp, carved out of wood, bone, or ivory)
• Duration: 1 minute

You softly hum or sing a song and a blue-white, glowing image of a harp, surrounded by little stars of twinkling radiance, that floats in mid-air just above you.

All creatures within 10 feet of you are freed from one effect of being charmed, frightened, incapacitated, or stunned, or it will restore one level of exhaustion. In addition, each round, if you choose to, you may concentrate on a creature within range, and that creature regains 30 hit points. You may continue to concentrate on that individual for multiple rounds, or you may pick a different target.

6th-level transmutation

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: Self
• Components: V, S, M (a piece of wet wool)
• Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes

You transform into a living storm cloud, becoming a swirling mass of black clouds illuminated from within by flickers of lightning.

While in this form, your only method of movement is a flying speed of 60 feet. You can enter and occupy the space of another creature. You have resistance to nonmagical damage, immunity to lightning damage, and advantage on Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution saving throws. If a creature strikes you with a melee weapon attack, it takes 3d8 lightning damage. You can pass through small holes, narrow openings, and even mere cracks, but you treat liquids as if they were solid surfaces. You can’t fall, and you remain hovering in the air even if stunned or otherwise incapacitated. You cannot talk or manipulate objects in storm cloud form, and any objects you were carrying or holding can’t be used, dropped, or interacted with in any way. You cannot cast spells while in this form.

As an action, you can attack an opponent up to 30 feet away, dealing 3d8 lightning damage on a hit. You can also use an action to bring down rain upon a 5-foot square within your reach, drenching it and putting out any nonmagical fires in that area.

Finally, you can use an action to expand your form to encompass a 20-foot-radius area, unleashing the storm’s full fury in a burst of rain, wind, lightning, and thunder.

Each creature in the area is drenched with rain, takes 3d8 lightning and 3d8 thunder damage, is deafened for 1d4 rounds, and is knocked prone. A successful Constitution saving throw halves the damage and negates the deafened and prone conditions. Taking this action uses up any remaining duration of the spell, and you resume your normal form at the end of your turn.

The creature may release the spell at any time by touching it and speaking a command word. This causes the tattoo to disappear and that spell to be cast.

Each tattoo takes up two square inches per level. Up to two spell levels can be tattooed on a neck, up to four levels can be tattooed on an arm, up to six levels can be tattooed on a leg, and up to ten levels can be tattooed on the chest or back.

• Components: V, M (a dried octopus tentacle)
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour

Two 10-foot-long greenish tentacles grow out of your body. You may use them as additional arms. They grant you one additional attack: you may use the tentacles to wield weapons, using your proficiency bonus, or to slam an opponent, using your spell attack modifier.

If you use them to slam, they inflict 2d6 + your Strength modifier in bludgeoning damage, and if the creature is your size or smaller, it is grappled (escape DC equal to your spell save DC) and restrained until the grapple ends. You may only grapple as many creatures as you have available tentacles. At the beginning of each of your turns, you constrict, inflicting an additional 1d6 bludgeoning damage as long as the creature is restrained.

Each tentacle has AC 11 + your Dexterity modifier and 8 hit points. Damage inflicted on a tentacle does not harm you.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell with a 7th-level or higher spell slot, you grow an additional tentacle for each spell slot higher than 6th level.

You can use this tentacle to pick up objects with ease. The tentacle is 30 feet long.

On a successful hit, you may choose to grapple that creature (escape DC is equal to your spell save DC). As long as the grapple remains in effect, that target is restrained. At the start of each of your turns, you inflict an additional 2d8 necrotic damage.

• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

You capture a creature within range in a loop of time.

The target is teleported to the space where it began its most recent turn. The target then makes a Wisdom saving throw. On a successful save, the spell ends. On a failed save, the creature must repeat the activities it undertook on its previous turn, following the sequence of moves and actions to the best of its ability. It doesn’t need to move along the same path or attack the same target, but if it moved and then attacked on its previous turn, its only option is to move and then attack on this turn. If the space where the target began its previous turn is occupied or if it’s impossible for the target to take the same action (if it cast a spell but is now unable to do so, for example), the target becomes incapacitated.

An affected target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

For as long as the spell lasts, the target teleports back to its starting point at the start of each of its turns, and it must repeat the same sequence of moves and actions.

This spell has no effect on a target that has an Intelligence score lower than 3.

When you cast this spell, you and up to five creatures you can see within 20 feet of you enter a shifting landscape of endless walls and corridors that connect to many places throughout the world. You can find your way to a destination within 100 miles, as long as you know for certain that your destination exists (though you don’t need to have seen or visited it before), and you must make a successful DC 20 Intelligence check.

If you have the ability to retrace a path you have previously taken without making a check (as a minotaur or a goristro can), this check automatically succeeds. On a failed check, you don’t find your path this round, and you and your companions each take 4d6 psychic damage as the madness of the shifting maze exacts its toll. You must repeat the check at the start of each of your turns until you find your way to your destination or until you die. In either event, the spell ends.

When the spell ends, you and those traveling with you appear in a safe location at your destination.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, you can bring along two additional creatures or travel an additional 100 miles for each slot level above 6th.

6th-level transmutation (ritual) (mythos)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 30 feet
• Components: V, S, M (root of deadly nightshade and a drop of the caster’s blood)

6th-level conjuration

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 100 feet
• Components: V, S, M (a piece of spider web)
• Duration: 12 hours

You fill an area 40 cubic feet with shadow-grey, intangible strands of force that resembles a giant spider web. The webbing is almost invisible. It requires a DC 18 Investigation check to locate them. Once created, these webs cannot be harmed by any nonmagical attacks.

Any creature who enters the web has its movement slowed to 10 feet. Each round a creature ends its turn in the webbing, the creature must make a Constitution saving throw. The creature takes 3d10 cold damage on a failed saving throw and has its Strength reduced by 1; the creature takes half as much damage on a successful check and does not lose Strength. Lost Strength returns after the creature takes a long rest.

6th-level evocation (winter)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 400 feet (30-foot cube)
• Components: V, S, M (a piece of polished glass)
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

When you cast this spell, the piercing rays of a day’s worth of sunlight reflecting off fresh snow blankets the area.

A creature caught in the spell’s area must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or have disadvantage on ranged attacks and Wisdom (Perception) checks for the duration of the spell. In addition, an affected creature’s vision is hampered such that foes it targets are treated as having three-quarters cover.

6th-level transmutation (winter)

• Casting Time: 1 action
• Range: 120 feet
• Components: V, S
• Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour

This spell invokes the deepest part of night on the winter solstice. You target a 40-foot-radius, 60-foot-high cylinder centered on a point within range, which is plunged into darkness and unbearable cold. Each creature in the area when you cast the spell and at the start of its turn must make a successful Constitution saving throw or take 1d6 cold damage and gain one level of exhaustion.

Creatures immune to cold damage are also immune to the exhaustion effect, as are creatures wearing cold weather gear or otherwise adapted for a cold environment.

As a bonus action, you can move the center of the effect 20 feet.

6th-level evocation

• Components: V, S
• Casting Time: 1 action
• Duration: Instantaneous
• Range: Self

When uttered, the words of thunder rises to a tremendous pitch and wash outward as a tangible boom of sound in a 60-foot radius centered on you. All other creatures in the sphere with 30 or fewer hit points are permanently deafened and are incapacitated until the end of your next turn, with no saving throw. Creatures with 31 to 60 hit points are deafened for 1 minute, but not incapacitated. Creatures with more than 60 hit points are unaffected.

You can cast words of thunder even if you are in a zone of magical silence. In this case, the spell destroys the silence effect but has no effect on creatures.

6th-level conjuration

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 500 feet Components: V, S Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes

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.

6th-level evocation

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 90 feet Components: V, S Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes

You create a vertical wall of whirling, razor-sharp blades made of magical energy. The wall appears within range and lasts for the duration. You can make a straight wall up to 100 feet long, 20 feet high, and 5 feet thick, or a ringed wall up to 60 feet in diameter, 20 feet high, and 5 feet thick. The wall provides three-quarters cover to creatures behind it, and its space is difficult terrain.

When a creature enters the wall’s area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, the creature must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 6d10 slashing damage. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage.

6th-level transmutation

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 120 feet Components: V, S Duration: Instantaneous

You cause up to six pillars of stone to burst from places on the ground that you can see within range. Each pillar is a cylinder that has a diameter of 5 feet and a height of up to 30 feet. The ground where a pillar appears must be wide enough for its diameter, and you can target ground under a creature if that creature is Medium or smaller. Each pillar has AC 5 and 30 hit points. When reduced to 0 hit points, a pillar crumbles into rubble, which creates an area of difficult terrain with a 10-foot radius. The rubble lasts until cleared.

If a pillar is created under a creature, that creature must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or be lifted by the pillar. A creature can choose to fail the save.

If a pillar is prevented from reaching its full height because of a ceiling or other obstacle, a creature on the pillar takes 6d6 bludgeoning damage and is restrained, pinched between the pillar and the obstacle. The restrained creature can use an action to make a Strength or Dexterity check (the creature’s choice) against the spell’s saving throw DC. On a success, the creature is no longer restrained and must either move off the pillar or fall off it.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, you can create two additional pillars for each slot level above 6th.

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 on a successful one.

At Higher Levels. 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.

6th-level conjuration

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 90 feet Components: V, S Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour

You summon a fey creature of challenge rating 6 or lower, or a fey spirit that takes the form of a beast of challenge rating 6 or lower. It appears in an unoccupied space that you can see within range. The fey creature disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends.

The fey creature is friendly to you and your companions for the duration. Roll initiative for the creature, which has its own turns. It obeys any verbal commands that you issue to it (no action required by you), as long as they don’t violate its alignment. If you don’t issue any commands to the fey creature, it defends itself from hostile creatures but otherwise takes no actions.

If your concentration is broken, the fey creature doesn’t disappear. Instead, you lose control of the fey creature, it becomes hostile toward you and your companions, and it might attack. An uncontrolled fey creature can’t be dismissed by you, and it disappears 1 hour after you summoned it. The DM has the fey creature’s statistics.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, the challenge rating increases by 1 for each slot level above 6th.

6th-level evocation

Casting Time: 10 minutes Range: Self Components: V, S, M (a statuette of yourself carved from ivory and decorated with gems worth at least 1,500 gp) Duration: 10 days

Choose a spell of 5th level or lower that you can cast, that has a casting time of 1 action, and that can target you. You cast that spell—called the contingent spell—as part of casting contingency, expending spell slots for both, but the contingent spell doesn’t come into effect. Instead, it takes effect when a certain circumstance occurs. You describe that circumstance when you cast the two spells. For example, a contingency cast with water breathing might stipulate that water breathing comes into effect when you are engulfed in water or a similar liquid.

The contingent spell takes effect immediately after the circumstance is met for the first time, whether or not you want it to, and then contingency ends.

The contingent spell takes effect only on you, even if it can normally target others. You can use only one contingency spell at a time. If you cast this spell again, the effect of another contingency spell on you ends. Also, contingency ends on you if its material component is ever not on your person.

Casting Time: 1 hour Range: Touch Components: V, S, M (clay, ash, and mandrake root, all of which the spell consumes, and a jewel-encrusted dagger worth at least 1,000 gp) Duration: Instantaneous

While speaking an intricate incantation, you cut yourself with a jewel-encrusted dagger, taking 2d4 piercing damage that can’t be reduced in any way. You then drip your blood on the spell’s other components and touch them, transforming them into a special construct called a homunculus. The statistics of the homunculus are in the Monster Manual. It is your faithful companion, and it dies if you die. Whenever you finish a long rest, you can spend up to half your Hit Dice if the homunculus is on the same plane of existence as you. When you do so, roll each die and add your Constitution modifier to it. Your hit point maximum is reduced by the total, and the homunculus’s hit point maximum and current hit points are both increased by it. This process can reduce you to no lower than 1 hit point. and the change to your and the homunculus’s hit points ends when you finish your next long rest. The reduction to your hit point maximum can’t be removed by any means before then, except by the homunculus‘s death. You can have only one homunculus at a time. If you cast this spell while your homunculus lives, the spell fails.

Casting Time: 1 minute Range: 10 feet Components: V, S, M (one clay pot filled with grave dirt, one clay pot filled with brackish water, and one 150 gp black onyx stone for each corpse) Duration: Instantaneous

You can cast this spell only at night. Choose up to three corpses of Medium or Small humanoids within range. Each corpse becomes a ghoul under your control. The DM has game statistics for these creatures.

As a bonus action on each of your turns, you can mentally command any creature you animated with this spell if the creature is within 120 feet of you (if you control multiple creatures, you can command any or all of them at the same time, issuing the same command to each one). You decide what action the creature will take and where it will move during its next turn, or you can issue a general command, such as to guard a particular chamber or corridor. If you issue no commands, the creature only defends itself against hostile creatures. Once given an order, the creature continues to follow it until its task is complete.

The creature is under your control for 24 hours, after which it stops obeying any command you have given it. To maintain control of the creature for another 24 hours, you must cast this spell on the creature before the current 24-hour period ends. This use of the spell reasserts your control over up to three creatures you have animated with this spell, rather than animating new ones.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a 7th-level spell slot, you can animate or reassert control over four ghouls. When you cast this spell using an 8th-level spell slot, you can animate or reassert control over five ghouls or two ghasts or wights. When you cast this spell using a 9th-level spell slot, you can animate or reassert control over six ghouls, three ghasts or wights, or two mummies.

6th-level transmutation

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 60 feet Components: V, S, M (a lodestone and a pinch of dust) Duration: Instantaneous

A thin green ray springs from your pointing finger to a target that you can see within range. The target can be a creature, an object, or a creation of magical force, such as the wall created by wall of force.

A creature targeted by this spell must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes 10d6 + 40 force damage. The target is disintegrated if this damage leaves it with 0 hit points.

A disintegrated creature and everything it is wearing and carrying, except magic items, are reduced to a pile of fine gray dust. The creature can be restored to life only by means of a true resurrection or a wish spell.

This spell automatically disintegrates a Large or smaller nonmagical object or a creation of magical force. If the target is a Huge or larger object or creation of force, this spell disintegrates a 10-foot-cube portion of it. A magic item is unaffected by this spell.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, the damage increases by 3d6 for each slot level above 6th.

6th-level conjuration (ritual)

Casting Time: 1 minute Range: Touch Components: V, S, M (a sapphire worth 1,000 gp) Duration: Until dispelled

You touch an object weighing 10 pounds or less whose longest dimension is 6 feet or less. The spell leaves an invisible mark on its surface and invisibly inscribes the name of the item on the sapphire you use as the material component. Each time you cast this spell, you must use a different sapphire.

At any time thereafter, you can use your action to speak the item’s name and crush the sapphire. The item instantly appears in your hand regardless of physical or planar distances, and the spell ends. If another creature is holding or carrying the item, crushing the sapphire doesn’t transport the item to you, but instead you learn who the creature possessing the object is and roughly where that creature is located at that moment.

Dispel Magic or a similar effect successfully applied to the sapphire ends this spell’s effect.

6th-level abjuration

Casting Time: 10 minutes Range: Touch Components: V, S, M (mistletoe, which the spell consumes, that was harvested with a golden sickle under the light of a full moon) Duration: 24 hours

You invoke the spirits of nature to protect an area outdoors or underground. The area can be as small as a 30-foot cube or as large as a 90-foot cube. Buildings and other structures are excluded from the affected area. If you cast this spell in the same area every day for a year, the spell lasts until dispelled. The spell creates the following effects within the area. When you cast this spell, you can specify creatures as friends who are immune to the effects. You can also specify a password that, when spoken aloud, makes the speaker immune to these effects. The entire warded area radiates magic. A dispel magic cast on the area, if successful, removes only one of the following effects, not the entire area. That spell’s caster chooses which effect to end. Only when all its effects are gone is this spell dispelled.

Solid Fog. You can fill any number of 5-foot squares on the ground with thick fog, making them heavily obscured. The fog reaches 10 feet high. In addition, every foot of movement through the fog costs 2 extra feet. To a creature immune to this effect, the fog obscures nothing and looks like soft mist, with motes of green light floating in the air.

Grasping Undergrowth. You can fill any number of 5-foot squares on the ground that aren’t filled with fog with grasping weeds and vines, as if they were affected by an entangle spell. To a creature immune to this effect, the weeds and vines feel soft and reshape themselves to serve as temporary seats or beds.

Grove Guardians. You can animate up to four trees in the area, causing them to uproot themselves from the ground. These trees have the same statistics as an awakened tree, which appears in the Monster Manual, except they can’t speak, and their bark is covered with druidic symbols. If any creature not immune to this effect enters the warded area, the grove guardians fight until they have driven off or slain the intruders. The grove guardians also obey your spoken commands (no action required by you) that you issue while in the area. If you don't give them commands and no intruders are present, the grove guardians do nothing. The grove guardians can‘t leave the warded area. When the spell ends, the magic animating them disappears, and the trees take root again if possible.

Additional Spell Effect. You can place your choice of one of the following magical effects within the warded area:

• A constant gust of wind in two locations of your choice
• Spike growth in one location of your choice
• Wind wall in two locations of your choice

To a creature immune to this effect, the winds are a fragrant, gentle breeze, and the area of spike growth is harmless.

6th-level necromancy

Casting Time: 1 action Range: Self Components: V, S Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

For the spell’s duration, your eyes become an inky void imbued with dread power. One creature of your choice within 60 feet of you that you can see must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be affected by one of the following effects of your choice for the duration. On each of your turns until the spell ends, you can use your action to target another creature but can’t target a creature again if it has succeeded on a saving throw against this casting of eyebite.

• Asleep. The target falls unconscious. It wakes up if it takes any damage or if another creature uses its action to shake the sleeper awake.
• Panicked. The target is frightened of you. On each of its turns, the frightened creature must take the Dash action and move away from you by the safest and shortest available route, unless there is nowhere to move. If the target moves to a place at least 60 feet away from you where it can no longer see you, this effect ends.
• Sickened. The target has disadvantage on attack rolls and ability checks. At the end of each of its turns, it can make another Wisdom saving throw. If it succeeds, the effect ends.

6th-level divination

Casting Time: 1 minute Range: Self Components: V, S, M (a set of divinatory tools – such as bones, ivory sticks, cards, teeth, or carved runes – worth 100 gp, and an object from the location you wish to find) Duration: Concentration, up to 1 day

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 plan 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.

You create a field of silvery light that surrounds a creature of your choice within range (you can choose yourself). The field sheds dim light out to 5 feet. While surrounded by the field, a creature gains the following benefits:

• Cover. The creature has half cover.
• Damage Resistance. The creature has resistance to acid, cold, fire, lightning, and poison damage.
• Evasion. If the creature is subjected to an effect that allows it to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, the creature instead takes no damage if it succeeds on the saving throw, and only half damage if it fails.

As a bonus action on subsequent turns, you can move the field to another creature within 60 feet of the field.

6th-level transmutation

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 60 feet Components: V, S, M (a pinch of lime, water, and earth) Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

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 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.

6th-level abjuration (ritual)

Casting Time: 10 minutes Range: Touch Components: V, S, M (a sprinkling of holy water, rare incense, and powdered ruby worth at least 1,000 gp) Duration: 1 day

You create a ward against magical travel that protects up to 40,000 square feet of floor space to a height of 30 feet above the floor. For the duration, creatures can’t teleport into the area or use portals, such as those created by the gate spell, to enter the area. The spell proofs the area against planar travel, and therefore prevents creatures from accessing the area by way of the Astral Plane, Ethereal Plane, Feywild, Shadowfell, or the plane shift spell.

In addition, the spell damages types of creatures that you choose when you cast it. Choose one or more of the following: celestials, elementals, fey, fiends, and undead. When a chosen creature enters the spell’s area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, the creature takes 5d10 radiant or necrotic damage (your choice when you cast this spell).

When you cast this spell, you can designate a password. A creature that speaks the password as it enters the area takes no damage from the spell.

This spell’s area can’t overlap with the area of another forbiddance spell. If you cast forbiddance every day for 30 days in the same location, the spell lasts until it is dispelled, and the material components are consumed on the last casting.

An immobile, faintly shimmering barrier springs into existence in a 10-foot radius around you and remains for the duration.

Any spell of 5th level or lower cast from outside the barrier can’t affect creatures or objects within it, even if the spell is cast using a higher level spell slot. Such a spell can target creatures and objects within the barrier, but the spell has no effect on them. Similarly, the area within the barrier is excluded from the areas affected by such spells.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, the barrier blocks spells of one level higher for each slot level above 6th.

Casting Time: 10 minutes Range: Touch Components: V, S, M (burning incense, a small measure of brimstone and oil, a knotted string, a small amount of umber hulk blood, and a small silver rod worth at least 10 gp) Duration: 24 hours

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 following magical effects within the warded area of the stronghold.

• 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.

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.

6th-level necromancy

Casting Time: 1 minute Range: Self Components: V, S, M (a gem, crystal, reliquary, or some other ornamental container worth at least 500 gp) Duration: Until dispelled

Your body falls into a catatonic state as your soul leaves it and enters the container you used for the spell’s material component. While your soul inhabits the container, you are aware of your surroundings as if you were in the container’s space. You can’t move or use reactions. The only action you can take is to project your soul up to 100 feet out of the container, either returning to your living body (and ending the spell) or attempting to possess a humanoids body.

You can attempt to possess any humanoid within 100 feet of you that you can see (creatures warded by a protection from evil and good or magic circle spells can’t be possessed). The target must make a Charisma saving throw. On a failure, your soul moves into the target’s body, and the target’s soul becomes trapped in the container. On a success, the target resists your efforts to possess it, and you can’t attempt to possess it again for 24 hours.

Once you possess a creature’s body, you control it. Your game statistics are replaced by the statistics of the creature though you retain your alignment and your Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma scores. You retain the benefit of your own class features. If the target has any class levels, you can’t use any of its class features.

Meanwhile, the possessed creature’s soul can perceive from the container using its own senses, but it can’t move or take actions at all.

While possessing a body, you can use your action to return from the host body to the container if it is within 100 feet of you, returning the host creature’s soul to its body. If the host body dies while you’re in it, the creature dies, and you must make a Charisma saving throw against your own spellcasting DC. On a success, you return to the container if it is within 100 feet of you. Otherwise, you die.

If the container is destroyed or the spell ends, your soul immediately returns to your body. If your body is more than 100 feet away from you, or if your body is dead when you attempt to return to it, you die. If another creature’s soul is in the container when it is destroyed, the creature’s soul returns to its body if the body is alive and within 100 feet. Otherwise, that creature dies.

When the spell ends, the container is destroyed.

6th-level enchantment

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 60 feet Components: V, M (a snake’s tongue and either a bit of honeycomb or a drop of sweet oil) Duration: 24 hours

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.

At Higher Levels. 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.

6th-level illusion

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 60 feet Components: S Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

You attempt to bind a creature within an illusory cell that only it perceives. One creature you can see within range must make an Intelligence saving throw. The target succeeds automatically if it is immune to being charmed. On a successful save, the target takes 5d10 psychic damage, and the spell ends. On a failed save, the target takes 5d10 psychic damage, and you make the area immediately around the target’s space appear dangerous to it in some way. You might cause the target to perceive itself as being surrounded by fire, floating razors, or hideous maws filled with dripping teeth. Whatever form the illusion takes, the target can’t see or hear anything beyond it and is restrained for the spell’s duration. If the target is moved out of the illusion, makes a melee attack through it, or reaches any part of its body through it, the target takes 10d10 psychic damage, and the spell ends.

6th-level transmutation

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 120 feet Components: V, S, M (an iron blade and a small bag containing a mixture of soils – clay, loam, and sand) Duration: Concentration, up to 2 hours

Choose an area of terrain no larger than 40 feet on a side within range. You can reshape dirt, sand, or clay in the area in any manner you choose for the duration. You can raise or lower the area’s elevation, create or fill in a trench, erect or flatten a wall, or form a pillar. The extent of any such changes can’t exceed half the area’s largest dimension. So, if you affect a 40-foot square, you can create a pillar up to 20 feet high, raise or lower the square’s elevation by up to 20 feet, dig a trench up to 20 feet deep, and so on. It takes 10 minutes for these changes to complete.

At the end of every 10 minutes you spend concentrating on the spell, you can choose a new area of terrain to affect.

Because the terrain’s transformation occurs slowly, creatures in the area can’t usually be trapped or injured by the ground’s movement.

This spell can’t manipulate natural stone or stone construction. Rocks and structures shift to accommodate the new terrain. If the way you shape the terrain would make a structure unstable, it might collapse.

Similarly, this spell doesn’t directly affect plant growth. The moved earth carries any plants along with it.

6th-level evocation

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 300 feet Components: V, S, M (a small crystal sphere) Duration: Instantaneous

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.

At Higher Levels. 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.

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 30 feet Components: V Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

Choose one creature that you can see within range. The target begins a comic dance in place: shuffling, tapping its feet, and capering for the duration. Creatures that can’t be charmed are immune to this spell.

A dancing creature must use all its movement to dance without leaving its space and has disadvantage on Dexterity saving throws and attack rolls. While the target is affected by this spell, other creatures have advantage on attack rolls against it. As an action, a dancing creature makes a Wisdom saving throw to regain control of itself. On a successful save, the spell ends.

6th-level conjuration

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 60 feet Components: V, S Duration: Instantaneous

You beseech an otherworldly entity for aid. The being must be known to you: a god, a primordial, a demon prince, or some other being of cosmic power. That entity sends a celestial, an elemental, or a fiend loyal to it to aid you, making the creature appear in an unoccupied space within range. If you know a specific creature’s name, you can speak that name when you cast this spell to request that creature, though you might get a different creature anyway (DM’s choice).

When the creature appears, it is under no compulsion to behave in any particular way. You can ask the creature to perform a service in exchange for payment, but it isn’t obliged to do so. The requested task could range from simple (fly us across the chasm, or help us fight a battle) to complex (spy on our enemies, or protect us during our foray into the dungeon). You must be able to communicate with the creature to bargain for its services.

Payment can take a variety of forms. A celestial might require a sizable donation of gold or magic items to an allied temple, while a fiend might demand a living sacrifice or a gift of treasure. Some creatures might exchange their service for a quest undertaken by you.

As a rule of thumb, a task that can be measured in minutes requires a payment worth 100 gp per minute. A task measured in hours requires 1,000 gp per hour. And a task measured in days (up to 10 days) requires 10,000 gp per day. The DM can adjust these payments based on the circumstances under which you cast the spell. If the task is aligned with the creature’s ethos, the payment might be halved or even waived. Nonhazardous tasks typically require only half the suggested payment, while especially dangerous tasks might require a greater gift. Creatures rarely accept tasks that seem suicidal.

After the creature completes the task, or when the agreed-upon duration of service expires, the creature returns to its home plane after reporting back to you, if appropriate to the task and if possible. If you are unable to agree on a price for the creature’s service, the creature immediately returns to its home plane.

A creature enlisted to join your group counts as a member of it, receiving a full share of experience points awarded.

6th-level abjuration

Casting Time: 1 action Range: Self Components: V, S Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

You have resistance to acid, cold, fire, lightning, and thunder damage for the spell’s duration.

When you take damage of one of those types, you can use your reaction to gain immunity to that type of damage, including against the triggering damage. If you do so, the resistances end, and you have the immunity until the end of your next turn, at which time the spell ends.

6th-level illusion

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 120 feet Components: V, S, M (a bit of fleece and jade dust worth at least 25 gp) Duration: Until dispelled

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.

6th-level enchantment

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 60 feet Components: V, S Duration: 1 minute

You overload the mind of one creature you can see within range, filling its psyche with discordant emotions. The target must make an Intelligence saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes 12d6 psychic damage and is stunned for 1 minute. On a successful save, the target takes half as much damage and isn’t stunned.

The stunned target can make an Intelligence saving throw at the end of each of its turns. On a successful save, the spell ends on the target.

6th-level necromancy

Casting Time: 1 reaction, which you take when a humanoid you can see within 60 feet of you dies Range: 60 feet Components: V, S, M (a tiny silver cage worth 100 gp) Duration: 8 hours

This spell snatches the soul of a humanoid as it dies and traps it inside the tiny cage you use for the material component. A stolen soul remains inside the cage until the spell ends or until you destroy the cage, which ends the spell. While you have a soul inside the cage, you can exploit it in any of the ways described below. You can use a trapped soul up to six times. Once you exploit a soul for the sixth time, it is released, and the spell ends. While a soul is trapped, the dead humanoid it came from can’t be revived.

• Steal Life. You can use a bonus action to drain vigor from the soul and regain 2d8 hit points.
• Query Soul. You ask the soul a question (no action required) and receive a brief telepathic answer, which you can understand regardless of the language used. The soul knows only what it knew in life, but it must answer you truthfully and to the best of its ability. The answer is no more than a sentence or two and might be cryptic.
• Borrow Experience. You can use a bonus action to bolster yourself with the soul’s life experience, making your next attack roll, ability check, or saving throw with advantage. If you don’t use this benefit before the start of your next turn, it is lost.
• Eyes of the Dead. You can use an action to name a place the humanoid saw in life, which creates an invisible sensor somewhere in that place if it is on the plane of existence you’re currently on. The sensor remains for as long as you concentrate, up to 10 minutes (as if you were concentrating on a spell). You receive visual and auditory information from the sensor as if you were in its space using your senses.

A creature that can see the sensor (such as one using see invisibility or truesight) sees a translucent image of the tormented humanoid whose soul you caged.

You call forth a fiendish spirit. It manifests in an unoccupied space that you can see within range. This corporeal form uses the Fiendish Spirit stat block. When you cast the spell, choose Demon, Devil, or Yugoloth. The creature resembles a fiend of the chosen type, which determines certain traits in its stat block. The creature disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends.

The creature is an ally to you and your companions. In combat, the creature shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It obeys your verbal commands (no action required by you). If you don’t issue any, it takes the Dodge action and uses its move to avoid danger.

6th-level evocation

Casting Time: 1 action Range: 120 feet Components: V, S, M (a small piece of quartz) Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes

You create a wall of ice on a solid surface within range. You can form it into a hemispherical dome or a sphere with 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 he 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. The creature takes 5d6 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

At Higher Levels. 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.

You permanently alter the physical body of a humanoid creature into another type of humanoid body. After encasing the target in clay, you conduct a rigorous, one-hour-long ritual that manipulates the flesh and function of the target's body into that of another humanoid race. They lose their previous racial traits and instead gain the racial traits of another humanoid race of the target's choice, aside from languages known (which remain unchanged). Should the target wish to alter their gender along with or instead of their race, they can choose to do so as part of the spell. When the ritual is completed, you and the target suffer one level of exhaustion.

Once a creature's race or gender has been changed via this spell, they cannot be affected again by this spell for 1 year.

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 normal 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.
