Geas (Wyrd Domain Ritual)

5th ring Wyrd, Enchantment

Ritual - does not require spell slot, takes 10 minutes longer

Casting Time: 1 minute

Range/Area: 60 ft

Components: V, M

Materials: (a set of silver manacles worth 50 gp, which the spell consumes)

Duration: 30 days

Damage/Effect: You compel a creature to either perform a service or refrain from an activity for many days.

You place a magical command on a creature that you can see within range, forcing it to carry out some service or refrain from some action or course of activity as you decide. If the creature can understand you, it must succeed on a WIS save or become charmed by you for the duration. While the creature is charmed by you, it takes 5d10 psychic damage each time it acts in a manner directly counter to your instructions, but no more than once each day. A creature that can’t understand you is unaffected by the spell.

You can issue any command you choose. However, should you issue a command that would result in certain death, the spell ends.

You can end the spell early by using an action to dismiss it. A remove curse, greater restoration, or wish spell also ends it.

In higher rings: As you unlock higher circles, this ritual grows in potency. Once you have access to 7th-circle spell slots, the duration of this spell is 1 year. Once you have access to 9th-circle spell slots, the spell lasts until it is ended by one of the spells mentioned above.
