Cantrips
The chart is ordered by skill cost, while the descriptions begin with cantrip control and then are are ordered alphabetically afterwards.
| Befuddle | Cantrip Control |
|---|
| Time Required: | 1 action | Range: | 30 feet | Duration: | 1 round |
| One creature seen within range must make a Judgment preservation save (DC:9). If the save fails, the creature becomes confused and loses its train of thought. Note that this spell does no real damage, will not affect the target’s Mind score, and doesn’t negate the target’s next action; it simply erases the target’s current thought. The thought probably will reoccur to the creature naturally at some time in the future, and is more likely for social encounters. For example, if a lady sees someone running from her husband’s room with a dagger, this spell compels her to forget that image. But if the person with the dagger is still visible a second later, she’ll wonder about it all over again. Similarly, an opponent in combat can forget what strike he was planning but still realizes he’s in combat and attack on his next action. The cantrip’s effect ends at the start of the target’s next action, so it must be quick to make certain that something forgotten isn’t instantly remembered. |
| Blade Ward | Cantrip Control |
|---|
| Time Required: | 1 action | Range: | Self | Duration: | 1 round |
| This cantrip is a quick defensive ability but it requires continued concentration while it is in effect, meaning no reactions are permitted. However, once cast, until the following round and until the next turn for action, the caster gains 3 points to his or her AC against any edged or piercing damage; however, blunt weapons and cleavers strike normally. |
| Camouflage | Cantrip Control |
|---|
| Time Required: | 1 action | Range: | Touch | Duration: | Up to 10 minutes |
| The cantrip causes a creature to change colors to match its surroundings. The creature may attempt to hide, and when doing so gains an additional d6 to the DC for stealth. This effect lasts as long as the caster concentrates, meaning the one manifesting the effect cannot take actions or reactions while focusing. |
| Challenger’s Mark | Cantrip Control |
|---|
| Time Required: | 1 reaction | Range: | 5 feet | Duration: | 1 round |
| As a reaction when the caster makes a successful melee hit against a target -- a target that much be within range, thus limiting melee weapons with reach -- this cantrip can be added to the effect of the strike. The caster marks the creature until the end of its next turn, bellowing a magical challenge. This effect ends early if the cantrip evoker is incapacitated or dies, or even if someone else marks the creature with a similar magical challenge. On the marked creature’s next turn, if it takes any other action besides an attack against the caster, even attacking another person, it has disadvantage for that action. The responsive attack against the caster does not have to be melee and the victim could choose not to act on its turn. |
| Chilling Touch | Cantrip Control |
|---|
| Time Required: | 1 action | Range: | Touch | Duration: | 1 round |
| This creates a spectral force from the caster’s hand, who then makes a single 1d20 attack roll against a target’s AC. If successful, the touch inflicts the victim with a necrotic ward which blocks all magical healing until the end of the caster’s next turn. |
| Dancing Lights | Cantrip Control |
|---|
| Time Required: | 1 action | Range: | 120 feet | Duration: | Up to 1 minute |
| The magic creates from one to four torch-sized lights which hover in the air. Combined they shed dim light in a 10-foot radius. For the illusion to continue, the caster must concentrate and therefore cannot take actions or reaction during that time. Dispelling the lights existence is the ending or interruption of concentration and can occur at any time. Initiative in combat should still be rolled even if the action is to continue with concentration. |
| Daze Animal | Cantrip Control |
|---|
| Time Required: | 1 action | Range: | 60 feet | Duration: | 1 round |
| This can affect a medium-size or smaller animal with a Spirit score of 6 or fewer points and it can be seen within range. The beast makes a Will preservation save (DC:7). If it fails, the animal cannot take actions or reactions until the start of the caster's next turn. |
| Detune | Cantrip Control |
|---|
| Time Required: | 1 action | Range: | 60 feet | Duration: | Instantaneous |
| One instrument seen within range becomes detuned. Anyone using the instrument in a performance has tactical disadvantage on their ability checks to play it. If the instrument is held by a creature when the cantrip is cast, then that creature makes a Muse preservation save against a DC (d4+8); a successful save negates the effect. |
| Dress | Cantrip Control |
|---|
| Time Required: | 1 action | Range: | Touch | Duration: | Instantaneous |
| A willing creature (and note "willing") who is touched instantly dons up to four unworn and uncarried articles of clothing within 30 feet. Likewise, the cantrip may "doff" a like number of articles being worn. If removing clothing, the articles appear folded at the caster’s feet. Any donned clothing is worn in the order desired, with any twists, ties, bows, or specific spacing and detail chosen. The clothing can't be behind glass or any other obstruction. |
| Fire Finger | Cantrip Control |
|---|
| Time Required: | 1 action | Range: | Self | Duration: | 10 minutes |
| A flame surrounds the caster’s hand, which will not harm the caster or equipment. In addition to spreading dim light for 15 feet, the fire can be used to ignite combustible materials with direct contact for 10 seconds. If used against a grappled, incapacitated, restrained stunned or unconscious victim, 1 point of fire damage against Body can be inflicted with one action, requiring a successful attack roll. The first round starts the burning, but the damage is not delivered until the start of the next turn. In the interim duration for this specific type of burning, the flame-wielder cannot take any reactions. |
| Friends | Cantrip Control |
|---|
| Time Required: | 1 action | Range: | Self | Duration: | Up to 1 minute |
| During the effect, the caster has advantage on all competition saves involving social interaction directed at a single creature who is not hostile at the time of casting. Further, the caster will add +5 to any DC required in social interactions. On the completion of the cantrip, the creature influenced is permitted a Perception check against a DC (d4+6) to be aware that magic was used against him, her or it. |

| Time Required: | 1 action | Range: | Touch | Duration: | Up to 7 days |
| By running one's hands along a willing creature's hair, this can change its color, shape, form, and even length, up to 1 foot shorter or longer. The effect will last for seven days or until the recipient is no longer willing to keep the change, whichever expires first. |

|---|
| Time Required: | 1 action | Range: | 30 feet | Duration: | Instantaneous |
| The quantity of a specific non-magical item within view can be instantly known. This is the cheat to how many marbles in the jar. The type of item must be have been handled in the past. If the caster has never eaten or touched a banana before, then knowing how many are in the tree above is not possible. The object being itemized must also be reasonably specific. One can learn how many apples are in a basket, for example, but not how many items of fruit in a pantry. |
| Jubilate | Cantrip Control |
|---|
| Time Required: | 1 action | Range: | 60 feet | Duration: | Instantaneous |

These enhancements last until the start of the caster's next turn. |

|---|
| Time Required: | 1 minute | Range: | Touch | Duration: | Permanent |
