|+ Feign Death (Bard, Cleric, Druid, Wizard)

| Level: 3 || Casting Time: 1 Action (Ritual) || Necromancy

| Range: Touch || Duration: 1 Hour || Components: VSM (a pinch of graveyard dirt)

For the spell’s duration, or until you use an action to touch the target and dismiss the spell, the target appears dead to all outward inspection and to spells used to determine the target’s status. The target is blinded and incapacitated, and its speed drops to 0. The target has resistance to all damage except psychic damage. If the target is diseased or poisoned when you cast the spell, or becomes diseased or poisoned while under the spell’s effect, the disease and poison have no effect until the spell ends.

 

|+ Glyph of Warding (Bard, Cleric, Maledictor, Wizard)

| Level: 3 || Casting Time: 1 Hour (Ritual) || Abjuration

| Range: Touch || Duration: Until Dispelled or Triggered || Components: VSM (incense and powdered diamond worth at least 200 gp, which the spell consumes)

When you cast this spell, you inscribe a glyph that later unleashes a magical effect. You inscribe it either on a surface (such as a table or a section of floor or wall) or within an object that can be closed (such as a book, a scroll, or a treasure chest) to conceal the glyph. The glyph can cover an area no larger than 10 feet in diameter. If the surface or object is moved more than 10 feet from where you cast this spell, the glyph is broken, and the spell ends without being triggered.<br>

You decide what triggers the glyph when you cast the spell. For glyphs inscribed on a surface, the most typical triggers include touching or standing on the glyph, removing another object covering the glyph, approaching within a certain distance of the glyph, or manipulating the object on which the glyph is inscribed. For glyphs inscribed within an object, the most common triggers include opening that object, approaching within a certain distance of the object, or seeing or reading the glyph. Once a glyph is triggered, this spell ends.<br>

You can further refine the trigger so the spell activates only under certain circumstances or according to physical characteristics (such as height or weight), creature kind (for example, the ward could be set to affect aberrations or drow), or alignment. You can also set conditions for creatures that don’t trigger the glyph, such as those who say a certain password.<br>

When you inscribe the glyph, choose explosive runes or a spell glyph.<br>

'''Explosive Runes.''' When triggered, the glyph erupts with magical energy in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on the glyph. The sphere spreads around corners. Each creature in the area must make a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 5d8 acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder damage on a failed saving throw (your choice when you create the glyph), or half as much damage on a successful one.<br>

'''Spell Glyph.''' You can store a prepared spell of 3rd level or lower in the glyph by casting it as part of creating the glyph. The spell must target a single creature or an area. The spell being stored has no immediate effect when cast in this way. When the glyph is triggered, the stored spell is cast. If the spell has a target, it targets the creature that triggered the glyph. If the spell affects an area, the area is centered on that creature. If the spell summons hostile creatures or creates harmful objects or traps, they appear as close as possible to the intruder and attack it. If the spell requires concentration, it lasts until the end of its full duration.<br>

'''At Higher Levels.''' When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage of an explosive runes glyph increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 3rd. If you create a spell glyph, you can store any spell of up to the same level as the slot you use for the glyph of warding.

 

|+ Healing Wave (Bard, Cleric, Druid, Paladin, Shaman)

| Level: 3 || Casting Time: 1 Action || Necromancy

Healing magic washes out from you and over nearby allies in a rolling wave that amplifies vital energy. You and up to five other creatures of your choice within range regain a number of hit points equal to 1d6 + your spellcasting ability modifier.<br>

At the start of your next turn, if you have not lost Concentration on this spell, you repeat this spell's effects.<br>

This spell has no effect on undead, constructs, or creatures that have 0 hit points.<br>

'''At Higher Levels.''' When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the healing done at the start of your next turn increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 3rd

 

|+ Incite Greed (Cleric, Sorcerer, Warlock, Wizard)

| Level: 3 || Casting Time: 1 Action || Enchantment

| Range: 30ft || Duration: 1 Minute (Concentration) || Components: VSM (a gem worth at least 50GP)

When you cast this spell, you present the gem used as the material component and choose any number of creatures within range that can see you. Each target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be charmed by you until the spell ends, or until you or your companions do anything harmful to it. While charmed in this way, a creature can do nothing but use its movement to approach you in a safe manner. While an affected creature is within 5 feet of you, it cannot move, but simply stares greedily at the gem you present.<br>

At the end of each of its turns, an affected target can make a Wisdom saving throw. If it succeeds, this effect ends for that target.

 

|+ Life Transference (Cleric, Paladin, Shaman, Wizard)

| Level: 3 || Casting Time: 1 Action || Necromancy

| Range: 30ft || Duration: Instant || Components: VS

You sacrifice some of your health to mend another creature’s injuries. You take 4d8 necrotic damage, which can’t be reduced in any way, and one creature of your choice that you can see within range regains a number of hit points equal to twice the necrotic damage you take.<br>

'''At Higher Levels.''' When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 3rd.
