Soulbrand in Dungeons & Dragons 5e
Homebrew
Soulbrand
5-level Necromancy
Casting Time: 1 bonus action
Range/Area: Touch
Components: V, S
Materials: 3 Soul Shards
Duration: 1 hour
You mark one willing creature with a burning sigil of soulbound protection.
For the duration, the branded creature gains resistance to fire and Shadow damage.
Additionally, when the branded creature makes a saving throw, it may add your Charisma modifier to the roll. Once it uses this bonus, it cannot use it again until the start of its next turn.
If the branded creature is reduced to 0 hit points, the mark detonates before fading. Each enemy of your choice within 10 feet of the branded creature must make a Dexterity saving throw.
On a failed save, an enemy takes 6d8 chaos damage.
On a successful save, it takes half as much damage.
Each ally of your choice within 10 feet of the branded creature regains 4d8 hit points.
Once the mark detonates, the spell ends.
You may have only one active Soulbrand at a time. If you cast this spell again, the previous Soulbrand ends.
Available for: Warlock
