1st-level divination (ritual) (Sorcerer)

  • Casting Time: 1 action
  • Range: Touch
  • Components: V, S
  • Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

You establish a telepathic link with one willing humanoid you touch. Until the spell ends, whenever you and the target can see each other, each of you can communicate with the other via telepathy. Creatures with Intelligence scores of 2 or less aren't affected by this spell. You don't need to share a language with a creature for it to understand your telepathic utterances, and the creature understands you even if it lacks a language. The creature can respond to you telepathically as well, but it must understand at least one language in order to communicate this way.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the duration increases to 10 minutes, and if either you or the creature you are linked to are surprised, while both of you can see each other, the surprised creature can still act normally during the surprise round, as if it were not surprised.
