Shadow Stride

4th-level conjuration


  • Casting Time: 1 minute
  • Range: 20 feet
  • Components: V, S
  • Duration: 8 hours
  • Classes: Bard, Sorcerer, Wizard

You and up to ten willing creatures you can see, that is within dim light or darkness, within range begin to sidle along the boundry between the material plane and the Shadowfell.

For the duration, you and the creatures affected make use of the warped space of the Shadowfell, relative to the material plane to potentially travel more quickly.

For each hour you travel, you travel an effective distance 1d4-1 times that which you would have in the material plane (to a minimum of half the usual distance).

Once you reach your destination, you can end the spell early as an Action. Due to the imperfect corrolation between the material plane and the Shadowfell, you are shunted 1d10 x 100 feet in a random horizontal direction from where you were relative the material plane.

If a creature under the effects of this spell is ever more than 40 feet of you while it it active, the spell ends early.

Social Camouflage

4th-level enchantment

  • Range: Touch
  • Components: V, S
  • Duration: Up to 1 minute
  • Classes: Bard, Druid, Wizard, Warlock

Any creature that can see or hear you must make a Wisdom saving throw or fail to percieve you.

A creature that has it's attention directed towards you for any reason becomes aware of you until you leave its focus. Afterwhich it must make another Wisdom saving throw. If it fails this save it will forget the period of time that it percieved you under this spell. It retains all information learned through whatever exchange it may have had with you, but not necessarily how it came of it.

Creatures with an Intelligence score less than 4 are immune to this spell.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, you can target one additional creature for each slot level above 4th.

Creatures make only one save, and being aware of one creature under the effects of this spell lets them percieve all the other creatures under it as well.
