Fey Step is a spell steeped in the mystique and whimsy of the Feywild, allowing the caster to momentarily step through the veils of reality and reappear a distance away. This spell is not just a means of transportation; it is a dance with the elemental forces of nature and a flirtation with the capriciousness of the fey.


Upon activation, the caster briefly fades from the material world, becoming a mere wisp of shadow and light. In this ethereal state, they step into the boundary between worlds, traversing the Feywild's fleeting paths. The caster's form blurs, leaving behind a trail of iridescent sparkles that linger for a heartbeat before vanishing.


The destination can be a place the caster sees or visualizes, a testament to the spell's connection with the mind and imagination. The caster reappears in the chosen location in a flourish of fey energy, the air shimmering as if reality itself is readjusting. This spell allows the caster to bypass physical obstacles, evade attacks, or surprise foes, embodying the unpredictable nature of the fey.


Fey Step can also bring along one willing creature of the caster's size or smaller, who is within 5 feet at the spell's casting. This companion is swept up in the caster's ethereal journey, sharing the brief but exhilarating passage through the Feywild. The pair must reappear in adjacent unoccupied spaces, their arrival marked by a soft glow and a faint echo of otherworldly music.


The spell, while powerful, carries the essence of the Feywild's mercurial spirit. After casting Fey Step, the caster can't use it again until they've had a short or long rest. This limitation reflects the taxing nature of traversing through the Feywild, even briefly, and the need to recover from such a journey.


Fey Step is not just a tool for movement; it is an embodiment of the fey's elusive nature, a spell that brings a touch of their world into the mundane. It is favored by those who seek to emulate the fey's grace, their unpredictability, and their affinity for the spaces between worlds.


At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the spells range increases by 30 feet, and you may bring along one additional willing creature for each slot level above 3rd.
