Crawling Darkness

6th-level evocation (Cleric)


  • Casting Time: 1 action
  • Range: Self
  • Components: V, S, M (a spider's web, some pitch, and a tentacle)
  • Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes

You reach out and touch the darkness between the stars, absorbing its abyssal essence into your body. Your form becomes wrapped in shadows, and tentacles burst from your shoulders and spine. You cannot be identified, except by the spell true seeing , or a similar magical effect.

You gain a +4 bonus to AC and for the duration you are immune to falling damage and can walk on water and other liquids (as if you were the subject of a water walk spell). As a bonus action on each of your turns for the duration, you can order your tentacles to attack a target within 10 feet. Make a melee spell attack. On a hit, the target takes 4d6 acid damage.
