Preservation in Dungeons & Dragons 5e
Kibbles
Preservation
0-level (Cantrip) Transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range/Area: 5 feet
Components: V, S
Duration: 1 Day
You touch a Small or smaller object or container that
contains objects, slowing the passage of time for that
object to half its usual pace. Food takes twice as long
to spoil, a torch burns twice as long, a lamp
consumes 1/2 as much oil, ice melts half as fast, etc.
This effect lasts until you use the effect again, until
the object changes state (such as food being eaten),
or 1 day passes (at which time you can use the spell
again to maintain it). This does not affect the items
interactions with the world (such as a weapon being
preserved in this way would not swing slower).
This spell’s effect increases to slowing time to 1/3
its usually pace when you reach 5th level, 1/4 its
usual pace when you reach 11th level, and 1/5 its
usual pace when you reach 17th level.
Available for: Artificer, Necromancer, Sorcerer, Warlock, Witch, Wizard
