5th-level Divination

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: self

Components: V, S

Duration: 30 days

Classes: Bard, Cleric, Paladin You make a promise or contract, binding any number of creatures with the magic of covenant language. The contract must be spoken out loud as the verbal component of the spell, but may take the form of a song, an impassioned speech, or a stern exhortation. If a creature can see, hear, and understand you, the spell marks that creature.

As part of this contract, you specify a triggering behavior, action, or event. Examples of triggers include “if you break your promise,” “if you speak my name out loud,” or “if any harm comes to this child.” If a creature marked by this spell performs the triggering action before the spell ends, you are immediately alerted to this fact. If you are sleeping, this mental alert wakes you up.

At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level, you are also alerted to the identity of the creature that performed the triggering action. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, you are alerted to the creature’s distance and direction at the time of the triggering event, in addition to its identity.
