Fey Tricks in Dungeons & Dragons 5e
Deep Magic Volume 2 (p.178)
Fey Tricks
4-level Abjuration
Casting Time: 1 reaction, which you take when you see a creature within 60 feet of you casting a spell
Range/Area: 60ft.
Components: Somatic
Duration: Instant
Attack/Save: DC = 10 + Spell Level
Damage/Effect: Control
With a wink and a nod, you attempt to take control of a spell as it is being cast. If the creature is casting a spell of 4th level or lower, make an ability check using your spellcasting ability. The DC equals 10 + the spell’s level. On a success, you gain control of the spell as if you cast it from that creature’s space. You can choose the direction of the line, the point where the spell is centered, the spell’s targets, and any other parameters of the spell. If the spell has a range of Self and doesn’t affect other targets, fey tricks fails. For example, you can redirect the line of a lightning bolt spell with the original caster as the origin, but you wouldn’t be able to take control of the false life spell.
At higher levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the spell you take control of can be less than or equal to the level of the spell slot you used. Available for: Sorcerer, Warlock, Wizard
