Lightning Orb

1st-level conjuration (Artificer, Cleric, Druid, Ranger, Sorcerer, Wizard)


  • Casting Time: 1 bonus action
  • Range: 60 feet
  • Components: V, S, M (a small crystal lens)
  • Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

You conjure a 6-inch-diameter ball of glowing, crackling light that hovers at a point you choose within range. The orb sheds bright light in a 10-foot radius and dim light for an additional 10 feet. As a bonus action on each of your turns you can move the orb up to 30 feet, though it winks out and the spell ends if it moves outside the spell's range. For the duration, whenever you cast a spell that deals lightning damage, you can choose to use the orb as the point of origin for the spell.
