Subtle Spell Image

From some deep well within, you can call forth magic without requiring somatic or verbal components. Though doing so takes a toll, only allowing you to use this ability once before needing a short rest.

  • You have one subtle point. Whenever you cast a spell you can choose to use your subtle point to cast the spell without requiring somatic or verbal components.
  • Using this ability means your spell cannot be countered. If you are hidden while casting and use this ability then you remain hidden, gaining advantage if the spell being cast allows.
  • You regain your expended subtle point when you finish a short rest.

Important Notes: Things mentioned in the spell description text, such as the actual suggestion when casting suggestion, are distinct from the verbal component itself. The same applies to spells like fireball that describe some visible effect originating from your pointing finger to the target of the spell; they're not the same as the somatic component of the spell.

Even if Subtle Spell doesn't remove the effects of the restrained condition, it can help you escape whatever's restraining you. Normally, a caster might keep you from casting misty step to teleport away by casting silence to prevent you from speaking verbal components of spells. However, by using Subtle Spell, you can cast misty step without any components, making it much harder to stop you from casting a spell to get away.
