To do so, you spend 1 sorcery point and choose a number of those creatures up to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one creature). A chosen creature automatically succeeds on its saving throw against the spell. #### Distant Spell When you cast a spell that has a range of 5 feet or greater, you can spend 1 sorcery point to double the range of the spell. When you cast a spell that has a range of touch, you can spend 1 sorcery point to make the range of the spell 30 feet. #### Empowered Spell When you roll damage for a spell, you can spend 1 sorcery point to reroll a number of the damage dice up to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one). You must use the new rolls. You can use Empowered Spell even if you have already used a different Metamagic talent during the casting of the spell. #### Extended Spell When you cast a spell that has a duration of 1 minute or longer, you can spend 1 sorcery point to double its duration, to a maximum duration of 24 hours. #### Heightened Spell When you cast a spell that forces a creature to make a saving throw to resist its effects, you can spend 3 sorcery points to give one target of the spell disadvantage on its first saving throw made against the spell. #### Quickened Spell When you cast a spell that has a casting time of 1 action, you can spend 2 sorcery points to change the casting time to 1 bonus action for this casting. #### Subtle Spell When you cast a spell, you can spend 1 sorcery point to cast it without any somatic or verbal components. #### Twinned Spell When you cast a spell, using a spell slot of 5th level or lower that targets only one creature and doesn't have a range of self, you can spend a number of sorcery points to target a second creature in range with the same spell. The number of sorcery points required are equal to the cost of creating a spell slot of the same slot level (1 sorcery point if the spell is a cantrip). <div class='footnote'> {footnote} | by [DracoDruid](https://www.gmbinder.com/profile/dracodruid) </div> <div class='pageNumber auto'></div>
