Description | |||
You spend an hour calling forth a disembodied evil
spirit. At the end of that time, the summoned spirit
must make a Charisma saving throw. If the saving
throw succeeds, you take 2d10 psychic damage plus
2d10 necrotic damage from waves of uncontrolled
energy rippling out from the disembodied spirit. You
can maintain the spell, forcing the subject to repeat
the saving throw at the end of each of your turns, with
the same consequence to you for each failure. If you
choose not to maintain the spell or are unable to do
so, the evil spirit returns to its place of torment and
cannot be recalled. If the saving throw fails, the summoned spirit is transferred into the waiting soul gem and immediately animates the constructed body. he subject is now a hellforged; it loses all of its previous racial traits and gains gearforged traits except as follows: Vulnerability: Hellforged are vulnerable to radiant damage. Evil Mind: Hellforged have disadvantage on saving throws against spells and abilities of evil iends or aberrations that efect the mind or behavior. Past Life: The hellforged retains only a vague sense of who it was in its former existence, but these memories are enough for it to gain proficiency in one skill. Languages: Hellforged speak Common, Machine Speech, and Infernal or Abyssal Up to four other spellcasters of at least 5th level can assist you in the ritual. Each assistant increases the DC of the Charisma saving throw by 1. In the event of a failed saving throw, the spellcaster and each assistant take damage. An assistant who drops out of the casting can’t rejoin. |
