Premonitory Vision

4th-level divination (ritual) (Bard,Druid,Ranger,Sorcerer)


  • Casting Time: 1 reaction, which you take when you finish a short or long rest
  • Range: Self
  • Components: V, S
  • Duration: Instantaneous

You perceive a series of images that show you future events. You ask a single question concerning a specific goal, event, or activity to occur within seven days. The DM offers a truthful reply. The reply might be a short phrase, an explanation of your own emotional reaction, or a description of a single image you saw. The spell doesn't consider any possible circumstances that might change the outcome, such as the casting of additional spells, or the loss or gain of a companion. After you cast this spell, unless you treat yourself with a special calming tincture that uses 25 gold pieces worth of ingredients, you have disadvantage on Wisdom, Dexterity, and Intelligence checks, and on Constitution saving throws to maintain concentration for 10 minutes. If you cast the spell two or more times before finishing your next long rest, you receive increasingly confusing visions that muddle your mind. For each casting after the first, the duration of the negative effects for not imbibing a calming tincture increase by an additional (cumulative) 10 minutes, and there is a cumulative 25* chance that the information you perceive is random and possibly unrelated to the question you asked. The DM makes this roll in secret.
