Binding Pact (5e Spell)
From D&D Wiki
| 2nd-level enchantment (ritual) | |
| Casting time: | 1 action |
|---|---|
| Range: | Touch |
| Components: | V, S |
| Duration: | Instantaneous |
You touch a willing creature and draw out its soul, binding it into a small bead that coalesces in your palm. As long as the bead and the target are on the same plane, anyone holding the bead can communicate telepathically with the target and can cast spells as though the holder was touching the target. The bead can be crushed as an action, dealing 5d10 force damage to the target and causing it to fall unconscious regardless of its current plane; the unconscious target can only be revived with greater restoration, heal, or wish.
This spell is most often used by fiends as a means of ensuring compliance in creatures who have sold their soul in exchange for power.
Dispel magic or a similar effect successfully applied to the bead ends this spell's effect and instantly returns the target's soul.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d10 for each slot level above 2nd. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 9th level, crushing the bead instead causes the target to die and reduces its body to ash.
